Squared


In the midst of emerging trends there are classics that you can't do without.  These are the building blocks for a timeless wardrobe.  This oversized checkerboard plaid sweater brings plenty of pretty, perfect for embracing a new season of cool. In extra fine marino wool it is in fact extra soft!

The statement plaid in shades of grey is a squarely suited piece for transitioning into fall with it's mock neck and elbow sleeve design.

I mixed this classic with the trending culotte style of trousers. The trick to wearing culottes, is for the hem to hit a few inches below the knee and a few inches above the ankle.  And for us petite gals, take them to a tailor if needed.  It's the least expensive alteration you can get.  Also try a nude heel.  It's leg lengthening! (don't ask me how many pairs of nude shoes I own - a gal's gotta wear what a gal's gotta wear)

P.S.  This block plaid sweater comes in a coordinating skirt and coat.
