FALL 2011 FASHION TRENDS

The trends you see on the runway at Spring Fashion Week will be in the stores in February and March, so that you can wear them when the weather warms up. The fall collections shown in March will hit the stores in July and August, so you're ready when the weather turns cold. This means that when you are looking at shorts and swimsuits, it may be snowing outside! And by the time you are ready to wear them, they may already be on sale. Seems crazy, doesn’t it? Check out Fall 2011 styles in the slideshow above.
