Staying Cute & Warm: Layering!!

Reds
Fall weather is a bit like a roller coaster relationship—one day it's sunny and bright, the next it's bleak and chilly. My solution to the seasonal wardrobe limbo is simple: layering. Besides being utterly practical, layered outfits are also downright fun to create. Figuring out the right combination of proportion, color, and texture is the sort of fashion Rubik's Cube that delights my sartorial soul. With this wardrobe puzzle in mind, I turned to the F/W 12 runways for some ideas and inspiration. From the funky graphic sweatshirts worn over turtlenecks at Balenciaga to the preppy stripes under bright shells at J. Crew, the abundance of varied looks convinced me of one thing: there's a layered look for every style type out there. While I won't catalog all of them for you today, I am happy…

Styling Tips for Fall Pt. 3

Reds
Though dirndls first originated as a native German costume worn at Oktoberfest, designers have reworked this traditional full-skirted silhouette into a modern must-have—and the season's essential skirt shape. Dirndls enjoyed a moment in the '50s, when voluminous skirts and cinched-in waistlines were a hallmark of the era's fashions, and they're now experiencing a runway resurrection in a variety of contemporary colors, textures, and patterns. A classic dirndl skirt calls for a circular cut with a gathered waistband and below-the-knee hemline, and while modern-day styles vary a bit, the look is always a cross between coy and sweet. Lest you think dirndls are only suitable for the von Trapps, we're showing you exactly how to wear them in today'sTrend Report. On The Runway We were particularly fond of Marc Jacob's F/W…

Styling Tips for Fall Pt. 2

It's time to break out your tights and boots, readers, as today's story on fall skirts will certainly require them both. With so many different skirt lengths, textures, and patterns available however, it's easy to become overwhelmed by the bounty of options on the market. That's why we've narrowed down some of the season's key shapes in a variety of stylish prints and rich fabrics. So we'll stop skirting the issue now—and let you take a look at our must-have picks! Designer Inspiration Skirts figured prominently on the F/W 12 runways, but we were particularly intrigued by Derek Lam's rendition. The designer's Black Leather Floral Embroidered Pencil Skirt ($3990), paired with the Grey Wool Pullover With Black Lambskin Leather Trim ($1450, 212.966.1616) and Grey Leather Devon Ankle Booties ($790, 212.966.1616), is sophisticated with a fashion-forward twist—and exactly…
