Tailoring

How to wear: "Whether wearing a jacket with a matching pant or pairing back to denim, keep underpinning minimal and fitted and footwear and accessories sleek and refined." — Basloe

Cozy Textures

How to wear: "Layer outerwear over thin, fitted knits to keep cozy without adding bulk. Pair back to denim or other natural textures for an easy, casual look." — Basloe

Relaxed

How to wear: "For a leg-lengthening look, keep hem extra long and pair it with a platform heel (also trending for fall!)" — Basloe

Vibrant Hues

How to wear: "Go bold with a head-to-toe monochromatic look. Pair back to black for high contrast, or add just a pop shoe or accessory." — Basloe
