Runway to Ready to Wear: Fall 2012


Military takes on a less literal approach this season with nods to the theme, gold button details, and colors varying from camel to navy. Try a fitted jacket or a shift dress with buttons.

Less matching, more mixing. When the fashion students of the year 3000 look back at 2012, it will be remembered as the year anything goes.
The boyfriend trend continues, moving from jeans to outerwear. Pair an oversized coat with fitted denim. Try a bold hue to incorporate another trend: Color blocking.

Part burgundy, part scarlet, completely dramatic.
It's not your granny's closet. . . or is it? 
Pair with your oxblood skinnies or over your crochet, ladylike pieces to give your look edge.
