Everything She Wants

I consider myself as a LOFT Girl -- trendy yet timeless; casual yet chic. Everything She Wants has been lucky enough to attend LOFT  press previews for several years, and I'm a fan of any brand that perennially celebrates stripes (a staple in my wardrobe). Here's a sneak peek from the accessible fashion brand's vibrant holiday collection (in stores this fall): Every girl needs a striped tee or two or three...and LOFT has them in lots of  shades that pop. Comfy cable-knit and striped sweaters, and colored skinny cords will spice up your holiday wardrobe. From the office to brunch, colorful ballet flats are a must for the  holiday season. This little black dress with a playful pink cat print is at the top of my holiday shopping wish list. Photos by Tracy E. Hopkins All styles available at LOFT stores nationwide & at LOFT.com.

Dresses, skirts, tops and tunics in bright colors, classic solids and playful geometric patterns were on display at the LOFT Fall 2012 Press Preview.   Everything She Wants was invited for a sneak peek, and several stylish looks left a lasting impression.  So let's mark our calendars since most of these fall fashions will be available in LOFT stores beginning in August. Shifts in bright shades and patterns can easily transition from the office to a dinner date. This bold patterned dress is at the top of my wish list for fall. Step into LOFT's Fall 2012 colorful closet. Stripes in all shades, like this knit sweater's clever mix of olive green with orange and purple, are in for fall. Stripes are a staple in my perennial wardrobe and I love the pairing of the black-and-white striped top with a yellow buttoned-down skirt. Mix-and-match patterns and colors for fall like an animal print top with a tangerine skirt and striped coat.  Enlive...
