This fall, have your sunglasses ready. Shining, bright gold and bronze colors are in. Dress like a star, as huge bows of different materials, such as mink, leather, silk and many others, will be widely adopted in autumn and winter fashions. In addition, brick red (burgundy), indigo and all-time favorite cold color black are big hits with fabric printed with geometric tiger and leopard figure motifs. Knitted fabrics with sequins glitter under the lights as if your whole body were being showered with shooting stars.
As for shoes, besides gold-colored leather and blue, thin high heels, extremely thin high heels decorated with sequins will be among the top choices. Continuing this summer's trend, platform and awl-shaped-sole shoes, crystal mirror-like soles, and simple black and gold lines will go with fall fashions perfectly.

Shiny, glamorous accessories have also been designed to match the glorious gold theme. Stockings with shiny gold effects add a bit of a retro sensation and smooth rivet-tacked boots, along with a gold metal bag, guarantee to be a head-turner. Nevertheless, the focus this fall is still on warm yet stylish jackets and boots, with the three important principles for jackets this fall being "Light, Simple and Small" in a change from the usual thick and heavy winter image.

Whether your style is classic or modern, it's recommended that you purchase a few shiny items this fall. Shiny jewelry, bags, double-breasted jackets, cool boots, gorgeous fur coats are essential elements on the drop-dead-gorgeous list this season.
