#LTKSeasonal #LTKStyleTip

For most of September and October in California, the best way for me to feel like I’m dressing for the season is to wear a dark palette in lightweight fabrics. I'll reach for cottons, silk voile, and semi-sheer wools to pull together looks that create a fall vibe. ⁠
⁠
One silhouette I love to work in is an elbow length sleeve top. The one I'm wearing is new from Vince. The fit and weight are perfection. I'll probably get a backup since I'll wear it so much. I also bought it in brown which looks very berry like on the website but is more rust brown in person. ⁠
⁠
The Theory black cotton skirt is a summer purchase and still available. It's very lightweight and perfect for warm autumn days.⁠
⁠
I like all black with a contrasting shoe color. Here with one of my favorite shoe purchases from spring/summer - the Miu Miu boat shoe in weathered white. Splurgy for a boat shoe but to me special enough and crazy comfortable. No regrets.⁠

The ONE jacket I want for FALL now.

I have a few key pieces in mind that will layer nicely into my wardrobe. The idea is to keep my closet classic but fresh. The Field Coat/Barn Jacket is the essential piece for the season and beyond. I like it worn with everything from a casual tee and jeans to a feminine flowing dress (Prada).

Some are dressier than others with the addition of a fur collar or polished fabric (Nili Lotan). I just ordered the leather collared one from COS and sized way down. This is not an area I want to spend a lot on. It just needs to feel good on, in a color that’s flattering and a fit that looks forward. Slightly oversized is the way to go. If the COS doesn’t work out, Ill try the one pictured above from Everlane or ME + EM.

FALL MOOD

September is the month of a mental transition into fall. This is true especially in California where the weather hasn’t changed much, but my mind set has. I evaluate my closet relocating clothes that feel like summer to the back while bringing forward a fall palette. I want to see that color story first when I’m deciding what to wear.

Over the years I’ve parted with heavier pieces that were rarely worn (sadly) keeping just the things I’d need when traveling to cold weather destinations. It’s still a substantial lot since my favorite time to travel to Europe is offseason – winter preferably. I’ll talk about what those pieces are in another post…a capsule wardrobe reserved for travel.

But for most of September and October in California, I’ve learned the best way for me to feel like I’m dressing for the season is to wear a fall palette in lightweight fabrics. This year, I’m leaning heavily into the warm khaki tones, ochre, and camel with black, brown and ivory.

One of my in flight uniforms is topping off a very basic ensemble with a stylish coat or jacket. I love having one with me for comfort plus it ups the style factor even if the rest of the outfit is so-so.Same pieces with a shorter coat and sneakers:
Chloe peacoat, Hogan sneakers, Vince pants (I also like these from Theory), Vince top (on sale), Moncler sweater

For my FALL STYLE LOOKS, I’d like to layer in soft pieces – a dress, skirt and definitely a shirt. Looking at the SS25 collections, this feeling isn’t going away anytime soon.

Toteme’s shirt is the vibe. It’s got the shape I’m after. Equally important is the fabric – a semi sheer organza or voile for example. Perfect for the warmer fall months.

I’m wearing a TWP voile shirt (also have it in navy and love it with dark denim) and old AGOLDE jeans. I’d layer a structured field coat over this look and ground it with suede flats.

The skirts I’m eyeing include one from Toteme and Loulou Studio in tan or blush pink. I’d wear them with dark khaki, ochre, or any sort of off color for visual interest.

OPPOSITES ATTRACT

A commenter asked for examples of the loose dresses I mentioned in yesterday’s post. Looking at how Prada styled the jacket is the jumping off point for inspiration. Having the strong contrast of a structured utilitarian piece paired with a soft dress creates an interesting look. The casual mocassin loafer anchors it all.

Inspiration From Italy

I’m easing back into my routine after traveling in Italy. Inevitably along the way, there were moments of style inspiration which I mentally packed up to revisit when I got home. The strongest of those moments came from Cortina, a mountain town in the Dolomites where the chic crowd perfected the art of dressing down. Not a label in sight. The Italians get it. Instead men and women wore what appeared to be well-loved personal favorites -suede or leather boat shoes with pants short enough to glimpse tan ankles, tasseled loafers with bright socks, and a head turning amount of stylish barn coat/field jacket toppers in every shade of green. These were paired with relaxed jeans, collared shirts casually tucked in, or loose dresses. The most stylish women to my eye wore hair in an almost messy gathered ponytail, a swipe of lipstick to complement a bare face with minimal if any makeup, and interesting jewelry.

THE UNIFORM

Wearing Nili Lotan jacket. The Paige is my favorite style. Goes with everything! Blue may be sold out but olive green and an ecru stripe are equally good!

Mother Denim jeans - my go to. Universally flattering. Prefer this silhouette with a mid heel shoe.

Love the mini Flamenco bag from Loewe. Extremely versatile with the option of a short chain strap, a long leather strap or neither for use as a clutch .
