Weekend Casual | Layering for Fall

The fresh cool air has been a pleasant change in New York. As much as I love summer vacations and days at the beach, Fall is my favorite season. There's something about waking up late on the weekend to a chilly apartment and the smell of fall. There are the things that warm my heart. 

With the change of weather, I'm trying to figure out how to transition some of my favorite pieces for fall and winter.  Like this printed dress, for example. I love wearing it to the office and on the weekend. I imagine I can wear this look with tights, but I'll have to experiment with the color and types of shoes. That's the hardest part about cold weather and office looks. Finding something to wear to work that isn't black. This year I'm going to try navy tights and navy heels. It's uncharted territory for me, but I need to get more creative with my office looks this season. Another way to make the most of your work wardrobe is to wear over the knee boots with long pencil skirts. For my style, I typically don't wear over the knee boots with short skirts to the office. I try and make sure my legs are covered when I wear boots to work.

As for today's look,  I've had several people ask me about my sleeveless coats. These coats are great to wear over a long sleeve shirt or sweater, but they can also be worn to layer over a lightweight coat. Also, this season I'm embracing this rich wine color. I love the way it looks with navy and black, so you'll be seeing more of this coat this season!
