9. Pencil skirt - with a crisp white shirt

10. Jet Jewels & Luxe Gold ala Tiffany’s Frank Gehry Tiffany - Gehry(Guggenhiem Architect!)

Dresses: It’s the season of the dress. A sweater dress is the best choice (and you can warm up with leggings underneath. Legging rules - cover your bum!).

Gold: Gold hardware, around your neck (layers of chains), shoe details, and fabric. It’s a rare woman who can mix silver and gold -so be safe and retire the silver for a little while.

Boots: Knee-high or little booties - just keep in mind the heel is flat or chunky (no stiletto). Cuffs & buckles galore.

Skinny Pants: With so much layering volume on top, you want your bottoms slim. The only skinny I’ve ‘really’ liked is the velvet skinny.

Menswear-inspired Trousers: If skinny and leggings don’t do it for you -your answer is plaids and pinstripes in wide-leg or long Bermuda short-style.

Sweaters: Since skinny is the look below - the counterbalance is big up top. Oversized flowing knits.white Shirt  - Trends

White Blouses: Always a classic, but now they look stunningly crisp with black, red and leopard accents.


Red
accents: Red is the No. 1 accent color for the season, says Gregg Andrews, a fashion director at Nordstrom. Buy a red coat, or a red handbag. Wear red lips.

Black accents: Coordinate jet onyx beads and crystals with just the right sparkle to subtly stand out on black.

  2. [...] I noted these in my Fall 2006 picks, but thought they’re grand enough to be featuring in a solo post. I don’t know who is designing for Aerosoles, but has this shoe company ever found some new soul (sole). [...]
