There are trends that don't even deserve to be called that since they make their way time and time again with a new perspective or twist (a status studs have also gained). The plaid trend is just what it is - a classic that doesn't really go away but is able to reinvent itself and become a must-have again. This time around, the plaid pattern is somewhat monochromatic and the edginess will come from the cut and design of the pieces it appears on. Bomber and moto jackets, oversize coats, tapered pants and metallic details are examples of how plaid is back with a cool factor that is still elegant and timeless.

A striped sweater and boyfriend jeans combo? It doesn't get more easy than that. Style it up by going the ripped and rolled-up way for the jeans and add a few extras that will make it a covetable outfit:
- an oversize coat is the season's must-have: a camel or mustard color is the current trend but there are a myriad of choices out there.
- pump up the coolness by adding a pair of cap toe ankle boots.
- balance the masculine proportions and the carefree attitude by adding a touch of floral and a colorful and classic statement necklace.

Stripes for the weekend: the casual yet stylish look
Saturday, November 9
The key of being inspired by fashion runways is knowing how to translate what we see and feel from them. We might want to get the exact pieces just as they are presented and dream about someday getting that gorgeous dress we fell in love with. However, runways are full of movement, color and styling which can give our wardrobe new inspiration that is even better than having the exact same outfit at hand. Learning to translate a runway look's vibe is essential and especially, understand what we loved about it. This will make the end result be true to one's style.
In this example, we chose a look from Mulberry's Fall-Winter 2013 collection that we truly loved. The rich blues, the careless yet chic attitude, the mix of textures and unexpected touches...the list goes on. The easiest would be to pick up a Navajo printed poncho or cape, add a navy blue sequin skirt, a belted oversized sweater, etc...a bit too predictable. What is most interesting is to learn to read the look's key features and make it our own. For us, what stood out beyond the particular pieces were the rich textures and color palette, the freedom of the printed poncho, the unexpected preppy shoe and sweater choice, the clashy-yet-perfect prints and materials and the overall carefree but stylish mood of the look. It can even be toned up or down, and in this case, we chose to make it an everyday staple.

Nothing welcomes fall better than the luscious palette and texture of a memorable jacquard brocade look. Whether you go for the unexpected playful version (left) or for the elegant upscale version (right), brocade is a beautiful way to add interest to your wardrobe. The metallic and repetitive patterns mixed in with its classic floral ways, make it a current must-have that is both opulent and daring. Include in your season's palette: nudes, taupe, browns / black, grays, gold and the color of the season: oxblood or aubergine and make it an autumn staple. Color blocking in the accessories is a great option for including additional touches of color to the mix without shifting the focus off the brocade and integrating the entire look.
Brocade goes a long way

The Script Plaid Silk Dress from Marc by Marc Jacobs is a design statement in itself. Plaid has been reinvented in the most graphic way while maintaining a modern mini dress silhouette. This dress is an example of a perfect transeasonal piece and will be made complete both by a pair of flat sandals or opaque tights and booties. Make it your own by adding your favorite jacket or coat on and you're ready to go.
