Fall Textures

One of my favorite things about fall styling is combining different textures into one outfit. Since the weather changes a lot during this season it is the best time to introduce some chunky knits and heavy tweeds to your outfits, while still keeping some of the more delicate fabrics. It is one of the easiest ways to add some interest to a monochromatic look such as this purple number. The contrast between the cozy knit and and the flowy silk, with a touch of suede and leather, feels rich as the season itself.

Fifty Shades of Purple

Lately I've been really drawn to the maxi look. I've been wearing several long skirts on heavy rotation over the summer. Now I'm ready to incorporate them into my fall wardrobe by pairing them with blazers and leather jackets. I love the contrast of the flowy feminine piece against a more structured masculine one.

I found this purple maxi at Nordstrom Rack for $28.20. It's quite a deal considering it originally was priced at $188. You are sure to see me wear it repeatedly into late November (until I can't climb over the piles of snow anymore).
