Fall is finally here! Time to dig up those scarves, boots, and cardigans buried deep inside your closet. In terms of fashion, this is definitely my favorite time of year – I especially love the bold pops of color that are trending this season. And of course, the layers!
But unfortunately, being bundled up in sweaters and coats doesn’t quite give me the motivation to work out. I won’t be sporting a bikini any time soon anyways so what’s the point, right?
Wrong! We’re all aiming for that perfect beach body once Spring rolls along, so why not start working for it now? Getting toned and fit is a gradual process—although I’m sure we all wish it would happen overnight. Swimsuit season will be coming around the corner before you know it, so save yourself from the intense dieting and exercise the week before spring break and start now!

Fall is one of the most exciting and fun seasons when it comes to fashion. It is the transition between light, flirty summer and frosty, dreary winter. This year’s color trends for Fall 2011 are not the usual brown and slate colors—they’re fun, flexible and lively! Don’t be afraid to show off some bright colors this fall. Hues of red, orange, and fuchsia were seen all over the runways during New York Fashion Week.
As you adjust your wardrobe accordingly to the season, it’s just as important to change up your make-up color palette. This season’s hottest make-up trends include smokey shimmery eyes, pink cheeks, and bold lips.
I’m not a professional make-up artist, but I wanted to share some of my favorite products of the season—both high-end cosmetics the stars show off on the red carpet as well as makeup for the more budget-conscious consumer. You can just as easily achieve these hot runway trends and look flawless for fall.
