Belts are a cinch for this coming Fall season. For girls, try a wide belt tied just under the bosom for the best effect. And for guys? A skinny belt to hold up your jeans will do the trick, swaying from the old trends with the wider belts and big buckles.

For girls, colors that are set to be trend setting for this fall range along the neutral pastels, while they can mix it up with some floral prints. Deep fall colors with large prints and darker backgrounds will be classical for females. And for guys? Deep hues and neutral colors dominate the scene.
