S U N H E E ... M O O N

Everytime the season changes we must quickly adapt before it gets the better of our wardrobe. In San Francisco that means for Spring its putting away those wool coats and stationing your Wellies and umbrella right by the door. When summer starts we can finally put our rainboots aways and reach for those dresses and sandals, but not before we grab a scarf and sweater for the evening. In Indian Summer we lose all sense of reality because of the heat and adventure about in shorts and miniskirts, jumpers and knits, anything to keep us cool. Slowly but surely the indian summer will give way to fall and we shake our heads look at our feet and put those gladiator sandals to rest in our closets. We once again remember we live in the city by the bay and need to prepare before the winter officially takes over the city.

This is my favorite season, crisp, sunny days are strewn about the months of November and December in between bouts of rain. Just as we forecast the weather I love to forcast the trends for this time each year. Here's the ones I'll be following in the months to come.

Ill be buying brightly colored tights in bulk and layering them with everything. Take it from me, walking from Fillmore to the TL is no picnic, I want all the layers I can get! I love oversized chunky sweaters, they make a silk dress look romantic or just bundle you up in your jeans and boots. If there is one dress I am going to buy this season it is going to be Sunhee Moons Donna Dress. It is so easy to wear, the cotton/jersey and elasticized waist is forgiving on every body type and the pleating detail and portrait-ish collar is elegant enough to wear to dinner at Jardiniere in Hayes valley. Ill also be seen in anything hi-waisted, this I belive is the biggest trend of the season. Jeans, skirts, natural waisted dresses, like the Donna Dress, are EVERYWHERE and I can't get enough. To top it all off accessories will make the outfit. Chunky, multi-chain, multi-metal necklaces that give the feeling of edgy luxury, a bright pair of heels to give our dark fall wardrobe a spark of color and oversized shoulder strap handbags. So much easier to ride the bus and grab groceries when you bag is out of mind. Another trend I feel is going to be strong this winter is hats. Wear them ladies and where them proud! Im not speaking of the oh so overly worn Fedora, experiment with different syles, different decades, and different ethnic pieces to bring the finishing touches to that look.

Whichever styles you decide to follow be daring and creative. Use inspiration to define your style. Just make it your own like we do here at Sunhee Moon and you'll be stylin'!
