Veronica Beard Fall

The Veronica Beard woman is sophisticated and rebellious. Her favorite pieces are rich classics made distinctly her own. Each piece, a wardrobe cornerstone for a life on the go. She’s got places to be, people to know, and a world to discover.

She’s got a black leather blazer and full midi skirt, over a slinky knit tank. Sumptuous cashmere blazers and Fair Isle cardigans in air-spun Alpaca, to wear soft against the skin with nothing underneath. Body-skimming slip shirtdresses she’ll style with knee-high, cap-toe boots and oversized boiled wool peacoats for texture play. The traditional tuxedo jacket, as a minidress for big nights out. A weathered oversized leather aviator coat to wear with column skirts (hers have a daring slit), and glimmering evening dresses.

Jackets, short and boxy or long and slim, with proportion-playing trousers and skirts. Tapestry print chiffon blouses and pieced denim are her perfect pairing. Easy, oversized bags in croc-print leather and suede are her everything.

Rich autumnal neutrals spiked with pops of orange, red and gold. Contrast collars, bib fronts, piping trim, crest buttons and shirttail hems add layers of interest up close. As they say, the devil is in the details.

There are no rules for the VB heroine. She is forever cool, chic, sexy and strong.
