“Ladies can choose a cozy flannel overshirt to exude rustic charm and layer it over a silky cami for a feminine touch. The contrast between the softness of the cami and the ruggedness of the overshirt creates a stylish juxtaposition.”
“Vintage denim maxi skirts are a must-have this season. Layer a lace slip underneath to add a delicate detail. Complete the outfit with a tailored jacket for a touch of sophistication.”

“For men, vintage track jackets layered over a graphic tee paired with straight-leg Dickies-style pants, corduroy, or vintage denim offers a casual, everyday look. To elevate the style, interchange a knit sweater vest and/or a trench-style jacket to stay with the layering vibe. Top it off with a baseball cap, a loose tie, or your favorite accessories— carefully curated classic elements and vintage pieces create a one-of-a-kind, retro-inspired outfit.”

“I love all things denim; luckily, there some fun denim trends this season—from colored denim and wide leg denim to cargo jeans, jumpsuits, overalls, and so much more! And with the Barbie movie [that came out] this summer, we'll still be seeing lots of pink!”

“You’ll be seeing hues of red everywhere, as it takes over as ‘the’ color of fall and winter this year. I love this trend since red is such a great color that amplifies any look. Pick one item to wear (red shoes, a red handbag, or a red blazer) or make a statement by wearing a monochromatic look.”

“Modern ’80s fashion is resurfacing this fall with oversized boxy looks (think shoulder pads) and bold, geometric patterns. For a fun and edgy look that’ll make you feel polished and powerful, add a boxy blazer to your outfit; if it has shoulder pads, more power to you.”

Bésame Red 1920

 

EDITOR’S PICK: GET GLAM!
For bold, bright red lips that’ll make you feel (almost!) famous this fall, the long-lasting, iconic offerings from Bésame Cosmetics can’t be beat. Their “Bésame Red 1920” shade with cool undertones looks fab on all skin tones and makes a serious statement while also staying put. $28, besamecosmetics.com

“[Puffer jackets can be] paired with loose denim, a staple solid long sleeve, and Converse, alongside loose curls, and a long, plaid scarf. Simple gold rings, small gold hoops, and—if you want to add more—stacked gold necklaces are a nice addition, too. This is a favorite trend, because it’s comfortable and cute; you can go from running errands to a coffee date with friends, and you’ll still feel like you have a stylish outfit on without trying too hard.”

Edgy & Versatile Intimates

Submitted by Theresa Del Biaggio, Bambolina’s Bra & Lingerie Boutique, 2023 Vine Street, El Dorado Hills, 916-581-6272, dressyourheartout.com

 

“Go with a look that’s edgy, and let your financial investment on intimate apparel work for you anytime—day or night! Wear a beautiful bra, bustier, or loungewear set with your other everyday staples; and transform those cozy pajamas into sleek and chic clubwear with a swanky pair of heels and the right accessories!”
