Fall is upon us, and I don’t remember being this excited or inspired by trends for a long time. The looks are equal parts edgy and luxurious. Here are some of our favorites:

Pendleton’s Portland Collection combines the “native” print trend with super modern lines and a sophisticated color palette, really elevating the line to high-art. We love each and every piece in this collection, but are especially enthralled with their modern poncho above (which seems to be universally sold-out), and this “staple” piece geometric cardigan sweater:

The colors inspiring us this season are rich and regal: Cherry reds, hunter greens, mustard yellows, and royal blues…

Top it off with my very favorite all-time fragrance: Violet/Leather by Olo (based in Portland). I literally love it so much I re-apply it before going to bed so I can dream to it :) They have a whole line of incredibly luxe and unique scents with names like Dark Wave and Lightning Paw.

And for another local favorite, check out the line from Portland Black Lipstick Company to add a little goth or the perfect shade of red to your lips.
