Fashion Friday: Fall 2012 Drinks with the Girls

Clothing can do many things and the old saying is that clothes make the man. They serve many purposes whether it be utilitarian, method of self-expression or art.

I’ve been reading Vogue and other fashion magazines since I was 10. That’s a long time in dog years. I have a serious thirst for fashion. It doesn’t matter if it’s a plain cotton t-shirt I pick up at the local big box store or haute couture sent down the runway.

Thanks to Polyvore, I can piece together amazing looks to share with my friends and other fashionistas. Now that fall is steadily upon us, I wanted a fun outfit that was great for the season and turned towards my go-to color, burgundy. This rich hue looks fabulous on almost every skin-tone and is a great replacement for all black.
