Why You (I) Need Cords this fall...



One of my favorite trends for the season is the return of corduroy. Comfortable, warm and earthy, it is the perfect pant for fall. We are heading back towards what I call a "Dawson's Creek" era. Low maintenance hair, light make up and cozy clothes.

And there couldn't be a better time. I love that I can just color my hair every few months now, because hombre is in, I love that I don't have to look like a clown with yellow eyeshadow, and I mostly love that I can wear sweaters and cords all day every day (as soon as this weather acts like fall).

So if you're adding a pair of cords to your wishlist this fall, I've compiled some pictures and prices of all styles of corduroy. Shop on!
