Today’s fashion collage is a mixture of inspirations: back to school clothes and the colors of fall candy apples. Between county fairs and Hallowe’en, these treats are everywhere. Whether you like cinnamon or caramel, these tastes and colors are a once a year delight!
For this collage, I used a palette of cream and brown, with just the right amount of lipstick red. Bold red lips are making a comeback, and what better time to show them off than during the months when the weather is starting to cool off? I wanted just a hint of apple green to avoid any Christmas vibes, so I went with a beautiful, glossy statement necklace. I like the hint of blue as well, but all green would be even better.
For a little extra September inspiration, here are a few apple and crayon inspired bead picks and projects.
