As summer pretends to hover in the air as we’ve seen on some recent weekends past, we’d be remiss if we didn’t pay attention to the warm fashions that fall always brings as the seasons change.

This year, from feathers to frills, Native American-inspired looks abound and polka-dots, whether embellished into stockings or splashed across a dress or a sweater are sure to spruce up any wardrobe, adding a funky, retro look. And as fall would have it, the season always calls for a light jacket. The classic trench coat, revamped depending on the stylist, is a sure hit.

Polka dots are a big hit on tights this year. Grab a pair to spice up a simple black dress for a night out or to add a unique touch to your work outfit. Designers from Jason Wu (above, left) to Bebe are sporting this trend. You can find polka-dot stockings at Bebe stores for only $19.

As the Native American trend explodes, ponchos, big sweaters and shawls not only do the job of providing warmth, but the intricate patterns and splashes of color ensure a summerish look on those gray days. The Native sweater poncho pictured above (middle) is only $30 at Forever21 stores.

The ever versatile trench coat is always a must-have for any male or female fashion forward individual. This Burberry trench has a new spin — shorter, with a more urban touch, it’s a guaranteed head-turner.
