This week Queen Anna House of Fashion is giving you all another sneak peek into the world of style and fashion forecasting; this time with our focus on prints and patterns! We are excited to again bring you all an exclusive look at the prints and patterns that will be all over the fashion industry and retail coming this fall and winter 2020. At Queen Anna, we will show you how to incorporate some of the most popular prints and patterns into your wardrobe, all while giving you tips on how to transition those prints in patterns in ways to ensure that they will never go out of style. 

There are some prints that we especially love here at Queen Anna House of Fashion that are forever in style. One of those being Animal Print!! We love a good snake or python print around hare, and depending on which color animal print you go with, that makes all the difference in your look. If you are someone who is wary about incorporating animal print into your wardrobe, start small with animal printed accessories, like a shoe or handbag, and that pop of pattern will make all the difference in your look. Queen Anna is embracing animal print this season with a few of our new pieces; one being the Allen Schwartz Langley Wrap Dress. This is a statement piece that will be the centerpiece of your look. We've even incorporated animal print into some of our face coverings that we offer! You will be up to date with the fashion world this season and beyond no matter how you choose to include animal print into your wardrobe. 

Plaid is another exquisite print that will be prominent this fall and winter and far beyond. Typically crafted in woolen clothing, when we think of plaid, we often associate it with a powerful, traditional warmth that is always in style. Plaid is unique yet professional and wearable depending on which plaid pieces you choose to wear. Queen Anna is presenting a few new outerwear pieces this season, one of course being in plaid! The Soia & Kyo Floriana Blazer finished in a unique moss green plaid, is a statement outerwear item, one that will be so relevant this season! Try pairing a patterned plaid piece with a rich jewel toned solid piece and let your outfit do all of the talking! 

The last print that will be all over the fashion and styling world is big floral prints. Typically floral is a constant in spring and summer fashion, but it has its place in fall and winter fashion as well! Autumnal floral and abstract prints are one way to add interest and color to the typically darker hued winter color palette. A Queen Anna brand favorite, Grace Willow has designed some floral and abstract printed tops and blouses that we will be featuring this coming season that will add an exceptional pop of color and pattern to your fall and winter wardrobe. The Grace Willow Ellis top features a poppy flower print that serves as a simple way to add floral into your wardrobe. A bright floral along side a stark winter white would create a rich contrast that is unexpected, yet classic all at the same time.

In this week's installment of the Fall Fashion Forecast, Queen Anna House of Fashion is excited to share with you some of the most exciting textures that will be all over the fashion world this season. Texture adds an entire dimension to your wardrobe and offers your look another element of style. Textures like leather, cashmere and silk are ones that will be around not only this season, but will be staples in fashion for seasons to come; so it can be really valuable to your wardrobe to invest in quality textures that will outlast time and trend. At Queen Anna and One Posh Closet, our stylists will show you how to wear your textured investment pieces in ways you haven’t thought about before as well as the ways to wear your investment  pieces season after season.

Leather is a texture that is a Queen Anna and One Posh Closet staple! From leather jackets, to leather pants, to leather skirts, to a leather bag, it is nearly impossible to go wrong when adding a leather piece to finish off your look. All types of leather are gorgeous depending on how you wish to style it, but if you are new to wearing this texture, try to aim for wearing neutral hued leather like black or brown to subtly introduce the timeless textile into your wardrobe. A classic leather motorcycle jacket is another staple layering piece that every wardrobe should have. Layering either a turtleneck under your leather for a more classic look or pairing your leather with a hoodie for a more casual look, gives you the edgy look of leather while Try wearing a leather legging or trouser, like the Grace Willow Vera Culotte as a replacement for denim and watch your look transform! 

Cashmere is another texture that we adore at Queen Anna and One Posh Closet. This luxurious textile is one of the rarest natural fibers in the world; as most cashmere is harvested from goats in a tedious, detailed process to sort fine fibers of goat hair. Cashmere is something that will keep you extremely warm all while possessing an indescribably softness that you just have to feel for yourself; So stop into Queen Anna to do so:). Try incorporating cashmere into your wardrobe with casual wear first, like with the Maison de Papillon Giovanna Joggers. Cashmere is such a comfortable texture that works so well for casual wear. The Maison de Papillon Eros Cashmere Hoodie is another great casual piece that pairs well with other textures like layering underneath a leather jacket. 

Silk is another one luxurious delicate texture that is so versatile and can be used and worn in so many different ways! Inclan Studios is one of our favorite women of color owned brands that uses silk to bring their designs to life. Pieces like the Ardin Top and the Paola Maxi Dress use silk in an unconventional way with pattern and color blocking. Silk is a natural protein fiber originating from silkworms that is spun to create a textile; it is one of the finest of all natural fibers, as well as one of the strongest. Renowned fashion designer Oscar De La Renta likens silk to diamonds in its rarity and exquisite make. Try pairing a silk top with a leather bottom to create an interesting mix of textures that work so well together. 

Imagine having a personal shopper and stylist available whenever you have WiFi? One Posh Closet, our luxury concierge business has done just that. We’ve created a Virtual Styling App where you can receive Personal Styling and Personal Shopping in one convenient location, communicate with your Posh Stylists whenever you want, and have personalized updates as little as twice a month.

One Posh Closet's primary focus is to take the struggle out of fashion and make it as fun, easy, and stress-free as possible. Queen Anna’s clients have recently been introduced to this exclusive fashion app and in-turn have received a more enjoyable shopping experience.

The Virtual Styling App assists Queen Anna clients in shopping for new pieces (not just from Queen Anna), the styling of new pieces, and creates an effortless way to find and plan your outfit(s) for special occasions and travel.

 

It’s completely up to the client how they'd like their personal stylist to tailor their Virtual Styling App, and it's all through the power of your Style Questionnaire. Whether you're wanting more expertise in workwear styles, weekend fashion, or a mixture of everything, One Posh Closet will personalize this application to you!

Not only does the client have the power, but they also get the convenience too. For example, if you find a new blouse in your virtual closet you can purchase it right from the app. And if it doesn’t work out, you can ship it back based on the retailer's return policy.

Now, how does One Posh Closet’s service compare to others? Great question. We work daily to make sure you feel heard when it comes to your fashion needs and wants. Based on your subscription, you’ll get weekly updates to your personal shopping and styling areas on the app; and always have direct communication with your Posh Stylist.
