Colorblock dresses have been hot in fashion for a while. And we’ll see more of the same come fall. Here are a few of our favorite colorblock pieces for the new season.
The Milly Natalie Belted Colorblock Dress ($330) features fabulous colors and a figure-flattering belt under the bust. Wear this dress with a pair of lady-like pumps or Mary Janes.
This cashmere sweater ($495) from Sophie Theallet is created with uber-soft cashmere and bold colorblocking. Pair this sweater with simple black pants or your favorite flirty skirts this fall.
Wrap-up in style with this gorgeous ‘Eyelash’ Colorblock Cashmere Wrap from Nordstrom. It’s perfect for brisk fall mornings, and at $88 you can’t beat the price.

 This summer, if you want to add just one piece to your wardrobe, make a breezy, swingy white dress.
Look for a dress that isn’t too long or too short — if it hits at the knee or just below, it’s perfect. The swingy shape makes it ideal for parties or it can even be used as swimsuit cover-up.
We love the tiered halter dress by Theory ($295) pictured here. This pretty dress can be worn halter style, or the thin straps can be tied in a bow on the bustine to make it strapless.
You’ll also adore the Lauren by Ralph Lauren ‘Esmeralda’ Linen Sundress ($158). This white linen dress features a full, gently pleated skirt and eyelet embroidery trim. It’s available at Nordstrom in sizes 8-16.

When I think about GUESS, I still associate the brand with jeans. But the fact of the matter is that GUESS by Marciano creates some beautiful pieces other than jeans — including dresses.

You can steal her look by getting the GUESS by Marciano Tryst Glitter Mini Dress ($158). This slinky dress features a fitted gathered design at the waist and plenty of shine. It comes in Pretty Plum or Royal Jade print in sizes XS-L.

Burgundy, bordeaux, merlot — we love the shades of wine in fashion for fall.
If you find yourself wearing too much black and gray when fall rolls around, this year get into wine. Wine hues look great when partnered with everything from gray and silver to brown and cream.
 Draped dress
Splurge on this gorgeous Donna Karan dress. This jersey dress features a draped front, loose long sleeves and calf-length hem. This designer dress will definitely cost you a pretty penny — it’s $2,695 at Neiman Marcus.
Roomy handbag
Pick out a roomy tote or satchel for fall. You don’t have to spend a bundle — choose faux leather instead of the real thing. This Jessica Simpson BLVD tote is price just under $65 and comes in a rich bordeaux shade.
Cut-out pumps
Look for ladylike pumps with unique detailing. These pointy Jimmy Choo pumps feature croc-embossing and cutout sides. If you want to splurge on a pair of pumps that you can wear from the office to a night out, these designer shoes are a good bet. Get these burgundy pumps at Neiman Marcus, priced at $675.

Priced at $250 at AshleyMichaelsen.com and fine boutiques, this dress is available in size 0-8 — they really need to expand their size selection.

For a summer party or a special date, get into these hot fashion trends.
 Ruffles
For the past year or so, ruffles have been all the rage. And they’ll continue to be hot throughout the summer. Slip into a one-shoulder dress with asymmetrical ruffled trim. It’s perfect for a party.
Bold Jewelry
Colorful, bold jewelry is hot again this summer. Chunky bead necklaces, bright enamel bangles and funky colorful watches are all fantastic accessories for your summer party outfits.
Anything Orange
Orange dresses, orange shoes, orange lipstick — we can’t get enough orange this season. If you aren’t sure about the orange trend, ease into this trend with an orange handbag. Wear it with your favorite summer whites and pretty prints.
The dress pictured here is the Tracy Reese Frock “Naomi” in a orange abstract animal print. It’s available at TracyReese.com for $218.
