Style Files: Is Fall 2009 Back to the 80's? Part 1 in a series of 10

For the past month or so I have been observing fashion trends for fall 2009, and I have come to the conclusion that this season has taken us back to the 80's.

#1 Animal Prints: Worn best when split with a solid color, particularly black or a bright color. Wear it in dress form, a skirt, a shirt, or leggings, and you're sure to be a hit.

Go to Forever 21's website for an outfit featuring animal print leggings-- http://www.forever21.com/looks/looks_product.asp?id=20090924-09

The dress on the left is from Nordstrom, "As You Wish" available in the junior's dept. for $64.
