With fall and winterapproaching, perhaps your closet may need a little updating…? To start off, your grandmother’s wardrobe isdefinitely back this season, with a fusion of bold textile patterns, leather,lace, fur, and knit tweeds. Not to mention oversized coats and military trendshave also returned. That being said, cigarette pants, a nice waist belt, or anything that creates or accentuates your feminine shape might just jump to the top of your shopping list. Don’t hesitate to experiment with all these interesting styles, but most importantly, make sure to begin this fall season with sophistication and elegance. It suddenly hit me how the weather has changed when I saw her wrapped in this beautifully textured oversized fur coat. This fur coat not only brings her whole attire to life, it also fits perfectly with her silhouette; not too oversized to devour her s lender figure. All black ensembles in the fall may bequite mundane, but adding texture on top of texture she brings excitement toher outfit. Her all black wardrobe highlights her fair complexion effortlessly,giving her a piercing and mysterious look. From the sharp shoulder pads of herfur coat, to the slick composition of the leather pants, down to the detailing of the leather boots, all work brilliantly and cohesively with her messyhairstyle. Finally, her dark hue lipstick is really the main element that pulls her entire look together. This young lady has playfully mixed“Grandma” garments with an alternative look. By pairing her peach floralpatterned shirt with a pair of vintage high-waist trousers and a studded belton top of her cardigan, she brings drama to her outfit and silhouette. Eventhough I often see belts on open trenches and cardigans in fashion shows, Ihardly ever see anyone try this style out on the streets. Therefore, I wassurprised to see her cinch a belt over an open cardigan holding it in place.Her clothing is highlighted by the studded belt, since it not only addscharacter to her outfit, but it also brings emphasis to her feminine figure and lengthens her legs, portraying a taller and slimmer silhouette. I love this subtle combination of summer and fall wardrobe. The way she pairs up her vintage combat boots with a plaidjumper semi tucked into a pair of slick high waisted leather shorts, ensure aneye catching look. The purple streaks in her hair really finish off the outfit with a hint of grunginess making her all black and grey attire really pop. Even though the “Don’t mix gold and silver jewellery” rule is no longer a taboo, itmay still turn out tacky at times… However, in this picture, her ability toeffortlessly blend silver and gold rings together makes you feel the need topause and take a closer look. Not only do these rings add personality and charmto her appearance, they also make her hands look gracious and fabulous. Thesilver studs on her brown leather purse captivate a nice tension to her elegant look. Stepping out with statement Bordeaux nails infuse a final touch of sophistication to the whole attire. The geometric pattern of the thick knit cardigan complemented with a pair of black skin tight trousers and a lace top over a dark sleeveless shirt creates dimension and a fun contour. With the open cardigan landing on her hips, it emphasises the torso and lengthening the legs, portraying a taller and slimmer silhouette. Finally, her vintage ankle boots add a retro tint to her appearance. a
