I love the fall. From
pumpkins and apples to brilliant foliage, it’s my favorite time of the year.
It’s also my favorite season for clothes.
The weather is just cool enough for fuzzy sweaters and boots, but warm
enough to hold off the ski parkas. With the help of my amazingly talented
photographer Emily O’Brien, I’ve put together my five “must have” looks for
fall. These outfits work for just about everyone and are so comfortable and easy
to wear.

Plaid and oxfords: For those casual days apple picking or
running errands, pair a plaid button down shirt with rolled-up jeans and
oxfords. If there’s a chill in the air, top with a jacket or cardigan.
This look is very on-trend for fall and oh so comfortable!

Faux fur and stripes: I love to play with patterns and textures and
this striped long sleeve tee looks fabulous topped with a faux fur vest. This outfit is
perfect for so many occasions including out to lunch with the girls or even to
the office on casual Fridays!

The poncho:
Yes the poncho is hot this fall, but did it ever go out of style? I love
this piece because it’s timeless yet always looks chic and polished. Shown here layered with a black sweater and
paired with jeans, tall boots and a burgundy bag for a punch of color. You can
wear this fabulous outfit anywhere while staying warm and cozy!

Classic black pumps (my most comfy)--Banana Republic
The blue dress: We all have a little black dress, but a little blue dress is just as versatile! This gorgeous inky blue color works for most skin tones and is so flattering! Choose a simple style that will easily layer with jackets and cardigans to dress up or down. And of course everyone needs a chic leather jacket to provide just a bit of “edge". Add a fun clutch and you're ready for a night on the town.
