Last Wednesday I had the pleasure of attending Girls Night Out hosted by Neiman Marcus Palm Beach. The shopping event, complete with small bites, chic beats and plenty of great eye candy, is the first of three taking place this month to showcase upcoming must-have trends for your fall wardrobe, and to help kick-off the much anticipated Fashion’s Night Out, a global celebration of fashion, scheduled for Sept 10th (which also happens to be the start date of NY Fashion Week). To keep you up-to-date on the au courant trends for fall, here’s a few outstanding high-style looks and key statement pieces that Neiman’s has included in their Fall 2009 Trend Report. Happy Shopping! – KLNeiman Marcus Fall 2009 Trends and NM Fashion Director Ken Downing’s take on looking chic for the season.

6- Cozy Knits
7- Major Black Dresses
“The little black dress has always been a safe bet, but today’s versions offer a twist in the form of decorative accents or accentuated shoulders (add high-impact jewelry or a handbag with hardware to make this classic all the more chic)” -KD

9- Accentuated Shoulders
10- Accessories With Hardware
