I am so happy when the Fall season is approaching. The air is crisp and you can be oh-so stylish with your fall/winter wardrobe! I have compiled a brief list of some of the top F/W must haves that every stylish lady should have in her closet this fall. You can interchange and mix these pieces for a variety of stylish options.
The Over the Knee Boot
The Over the Knee boot replaced pants on the runway. These are the hottest, most prominent thing on the Fall/Winter Runway, and can be easily translated to the everyday woman’s look. There are some hot over the knee boots that are flats and heels. I suggest opting for a flat or not too high heel (no more than 3 in) to keep your look looking stylish vs too over the top. For your stylish, Over the Knee Boot look, pair them with a mini dress and leggings/tights or skinny jeans and a blazer for a few city-chic looks.

The Sweater Dress
This classic, versatile piece is and always will be a fall must have for the stylish woman. There are a variety of fits and cuts of this dress to work for your body type. For an hourglass, opt for a fitted sweater dress to hug your curves. All shapes including apple, boyish, or pear shapes, you can sport a loose yet stylish fit and even play around with sleeve types (kimono, bell, etc – see my blog posting below explaining different sleeve types: http://blog.a-linestyleservices.com/sleeves-for-different-body-types/). This staple piece can be paired with a long necklace, a pair of leggings and your over the knee boot, ankle boots, or pumps. Also, keep in mind any sweater or cardigan long enough can be multifunctional and used as a sweater dress. To do so, pair it with a belt to bring in waistline and create more shape.

The Military Jacket
This jacket oozes edgy style with its structure and prominent neckline. The Military Jacket will instantly amp up your casual chic style. Keep it simple by pairing with a fitted tee and skinny jeans. Feel free to play up the edginess look by pairing them with a boyfriend jean or distressed skinny jeans. Another stylish option is pairing the Military Jacket with your Above the Knee Boot, your knit sweater dress, and a pair of leggings for a naughty but nice stylish look.

Cashmere
Cashmere is synonymous with effortless style. Its soft, luxurious feel can be worn as a sweater, cardigan, or scarf. Layering done best is done with a cashmere sweater or cardigan under your blouse or oxford shirts. You should have fun with it and get a vibrant hue for instant color pop. For fall, reds and oranges (complimentary to your skin tone) are great vibrant colors that can play into your wardrobe complimenting browns, tans, cremes, greys, and black.

The Suede Bag
A suede bag adds a warmth to your look that screams fall style. It can compliment your casual look and work with your dressier, more professional attire as well. Be sure to pre-treat your bag and properly store it during the spring/summer months to keep it stylish for years to come.
