Two fashion influences that are trending strong are sure to keep this season’s fashions anything but boring:

Military, or what the powers that be are calling “Utility Chic”: Burnished metals, dog tags, camouflage, shearling, and distressed leathers will be marching into coats, boots, handbags, jewelry, belts and apparel. This means stylings will be a touch more casual with opportunities to pair casual with dressy.
Animal Prints: We’ve already seen these pop up in spring/summer wardrobes, but the trend continues into the cooler temperatures with zebra, leopard, and cheetah prints and textures clawing their way into scarves, hats, coats, apparel, handbags and even jewelry.
