This, Not This: Vol. 15

This, Not This: FAUX SHEARLING

Tis the season for shearling, but if you’re going to invest in this style of coat, stick to neutrals in a tonal combination. Try a white and tan style, instead of black and white. It’s a timeless classic.

This, Not This: SEQUIN DRESS

The holidays are the perfect time to integrate some sparkle. To make the style look more modern choose pieces with a liquid-like sequin effect — and go for a long sleeve on a sequin gown! It always looks so elegant.

This, Not This: SILVER SHOE

I love a metallic shoe, and I’ve been wearing mine non -stop. But the key with this style is to find a MIRRORED silver, not just a metallic finish.

This, Not This: RIDING BOOTS

A riding boot is always a yes, but make sure they hit all the right notes. Almond toe, pull on style and uninterrupted smooth leather make for a flawless combination.

This, Not This: CAMEL WOOL BLAZER

Swap a fitted blazer for a more oversized silhouette. Why? It’s more comfortable and way more fun to style. Layer it over dresses, pair it with jeans, wear it as a coat, cinch it with a belt….the list goes on and on.
