The cold and tough winter months need warmth: colors that calm the soul and help us keep going forward. Pantone®'s palette is full of contrasts and features four especially warm colors: American Beauty being the most notorious of them all, is meant to be a "feel-good" color and is used to complement edgy or quirky fashion. Honey Yellow brings the sunshine in while staying subdued and fit for winter, its fashion style is classic and feminine with a vintage feel. An interesting combination is created when matched with Burnt Sienna, a fall classic with a rusty twist in a base of orangey rose featured in frilly pieces with a retro touch.
Last but not least, comes the king of neutrals: Crème Brûlée. Frostier than our regular nudes, it becomes one of the most elegant hues in current styles. When paired with color, the result is impeccably chic, as it conveys joy amidst a challenging environment.

Warmth: Pantone® Fall-Winter Fashion Colors 2010

Layering is one of the most interesting ways to transform looks and keep current - and a most needed resource during the colder months. Waistcoats, sleeveless tops, gilets and vests are key and become the cherry on top of a well-layered fashion ensemble. Mixing different textures, lengths, thicknesses and styles is the way to go and will create striking end results every time.
Eclectic is this season's motto.

Sleeveless Chic

Skirts: the epitome of chic and femininity are as strong as coats this fall. Focusing on the short side (knees abound) and full of detailing, a whole outfit can be produced around today's skirt. Accompany minis with the myriad of tights available or the all mighty thigh-high boots and you will be ready to enjoy the leafy season as if it were warm and sunny all day.

A short jacket or coat continues the frisky attitude while a longer or oversized one creates an unexpected balance: layers will provide the perfect temperature while adding character to the outfit. It's all about experimenting and finding a nouveau allure for the season, so don't be shy.

The Fall of the Skirts

Should studs still be considered a passing trend? Over the seasons their versatility has surpassed the punk rock scene proving their importance in fashion. Studs have become a way of life, adding attitude and modernity regardless of the garment. They are equally able to become the cherry on top for an elegant ensemble or the witty contradictory element on an otherwise straightforward piece.

Best of all, studs' 80s reference is no longer needed, they have officially become part of the current way of life. Proof of just that is the existence of sites devoted to stud style.

The Studded Way of Life

A jacket can make or break an outfit in a second. It serves as an instant label of the style that is trying to be conveyed. It can be contradictory, balancing or entirely matching to the rest of the ensemble. You can be wearing the exact same pieces and the jacket you choose to go with them will create a fashion sense the others cannot.

Take for example, a polished and sensual one-shoulder dress in black (Alexander Wang), a retro inspired bag (D&G Dolce & Gabbana) and a pair of modern cutout booties (Dolce & Gabbana). Put on a strong-shouldered leather jacket with a snakeskin pattern (Miss Selfridge) and your sharp look is now Biker Chic. //Contradictory




Mix a ruffle front silk blouse (See by Chloé) with a pair of indigo boyfriend jeans (Topshop), a metallic handbag (Tylie Malibu) and patent leather sneakers (Converse). Counterbalance the comfy romantic look with a straight and structured peaked shoulder jacket in black (Sportmax) and create a Classic Edge. //Balancing

A midnight rocker look consisting of black stretch leather leggings (Vanessa Bruno), an oversized sequin tank (Sass and Bide) and studded peeptoe shoe boots (Steve Madden) is made complete with a relevant starry tuxedo jacket (Markus Lupfer). //Matching

This fall, the power jacket is the master of outerwear. Structured, with simple lines, Balmain-inspired strong shoulders and full of character, the jacket has become a trend in itself.
