Top Ten Fashion Picks: Fall 2009/Winter 2010

#1 Gray and Purple
Gray is the hottest neutral of the season. Purple — from deep plums to light lavenders — accents it nicely.

#2 Ruffled Blouses
They update tailored separates and look great on their own or peeking out from under a jacket.

#3 Ankle Booties
They work as well with cigarette pants as they do with mini-dresses and pencil slim skirts. Some even have peep-toes. Pick a heel height that works for you!

#4 Floral Skirts
Make them work for cooler weather with tights, flats and fitted sweaters.

#5 Cropped Tuxedo Jackets
Find them in designer boutiques, vintage stores and everywhere in between. They offer both day and night versatility.

#6 Colorful, Oversized Handbags
Pick a hue you love and wear it with everything!

#7 Menswear Details
High-heeled oxford pumps with laces and tassels along with tweed pants, vests and jackets lead the way for celebrating this trend.

#8 Ballet Flats
Choose those with a slight heel & snipped toes for a fresh look.

#9 Patterned Tights
Add leg interest and texture to a variety of fall looks.

#10 Jeweled Necklaces
Spend a little or a lot — just make sure your neckline sparkles!

To do your own style searches, go to your favorite retailer or search engine and type in the item you are trying to find (i.e. "skinny jeans"). Then see what comes up! Good luck!
