The stores are already putting away the back-to-school items and here comes the Halloween merchandise. The local cafe is wiping the slate and chalking the words “pumpkin spice latte” on the board in anticipation of fall. Yes, where has the summer gone? Well, we still have a bit of it left so enjoy it! But if you’re planning on having your engagement photos done this fall, I’ve put together another “Styled” set for you to check out with some of the my favorite looks for the fall. If you’re planning a fall family portrait session, stay tuned for the Styled edition with some great looks for the family.
I’m a big fan of what Rugby has put out this fall and I love how prep style is making a big comeback in the mainstream (although some of us have been wearing it for years, yes I wore white chinos, an oxford and top-siders to my 8th grade graduation). The looks I’ve put together are versatile and layered, definitely something that you’ll feel comfortable wearing out to dinner after your engagement session. In my opinion, shoes and accessories are key. The lapel/tie pin for the gent is a nice modern touch and comes in a variety of colors from Linden Lovebirds on Etsy. The canvas and leather chain belt from Rugby is a throw back to equestrian style at the turn of the century, timeless. Nothing can ruin a well-played outfit faster than a pair of dingy, outdated shoes. Stick with the classics. The footwear I’ve chosen for both him and her looked great 20 years ago and looks just as good today. The outfits, cuts, tones, fit and textures you see are meticulously selected to maximize “the look” and keep a clean, coordinated palette for the best possibly photos. So here you go, enjoy!
