Happy Friday, friends! Here’s another edition of Friday Favorites. Lately I’ve been looking into the future and discussing trends or trends-to-be for the upcoming fall season. While I am absolutely not trying to rush out of the summer, fashion is an ever-changing revolving door and I’ve got to keep up!

My favorite upcoming trend is the button-up a-line skirt. I love a-line silhouettes because it really does flatter every body type. Plus, the button detailing is so cute! I particularly see this trend styled in a very autumn collegiate way, but taking a closer look at the many colors and fabrics it comes in, I can see it in many different styles.

Here are four examples of how versatile this new trend is!

    Haha, our satorial tastes are equally great — I last styled my denim button-front skirt with a gingham blouse (http://bit.ly/1dJncgH)! It's great that you take the time to make these outfit boards for us — they are a wonderful source of inspiration.

    I love the look of an A line skirt! You created some great styles here! I love #3, but I think that the denim skirt would be great for fall! Susan

    So many great boards! Love that white and chambray combo. I just ordered a suede skirt I am pretty pumped about. I also have that gingham top, so clearly I like it. 🙂

    What a cute style of skirt! It has a lovely vintage vibe. I love the camel coloured one in #2.

    Birkenstocks are super comfortable. I just got myself a pair last month. Have a great weekend.

    I actually wasn't digging this kind of skirt until you showed me all the different looks you can create with them. You may have sold me 🙂 Thanks for linking-up for Blogging Besties!
