Fall 2022

I love the whimsy of this blouse. One of my clients recently purchased it, and it is lovely.

Polka dots and graphic prints are a big fall trend. This top sort of does both!

Nic+Zoe blouse will take you from the office to dinner.

Ruffles continue to be a hot trend, along with cobalt blue. Do both!

Let's have fun this fall, shall we?

This plays up fall's bold stripe trend. Ayr.

This non-iron shirt greatly appeals to me.

Romance vibes in this Lauren Ralph Lauren blouse.

A slim-fit chambray shirt by J. Crew with breast pockets. Nicely relaxed.

Limited sizes on this Polo Ralph Lauren chambray shirt. I like that it doesn't have breast pockets, which is nice for those with larger breasts.

Okay, so this isn't so much for every day, but how fun would it be for evening with sequin pants or dark trouser jeans? J. Crew. Comes in three color options.

Athleta. This is a great top for evenings. You could even wear it to work under a jacket/blazer and remove the jacket for evening, if needed.

I had a similar sweater vest on my wish list last year, and I didn't get one. Maybe this year. This is Alex Mill, and it comes in navy, also.

This cashmere sweater vest by Everlane is made of recycled cashmere, lowering the carbon footprint. It comes in a few color choices.

This sweater vest by Banana Republic is oversized, working well over a big shirt but also worn alone.

My apologies to those who find this hideous, but it is just too cute not to share.

A sweater tank is all we need under our blazers in Dallas. This comes in two color options. Banana Republic.

Ditch the long cardigans in favor of shorter ones to lengthen your legs and appear taller. This one comes in six solid colors and two patterned options in sizes XXS-3X.

This camel is one of fall's key colors. If you like a slightly relaxed fit and a statement sleeve, this is your sweater.

Not too bulky. Cotton. A good weight for warmer places like Dallas.

This wool turtleneck comes in five colors. 100% merino wool. Also comes in Petite. XXS-XXL.

This is a wool/nylon blend from Alex Mill.

This sweater comes in four colors, and it is 100% merino wool. Loose fitting but thinner fabric keep it from looking overwhelming.

This Everlane cotton crew neck sweater takes me back a few decades. It comes in six color options.

This blazer is by MPG Sport, a certified B Corp. It is made of tech fabric that is thermal-regulating, moisture-wicking and odor-blocking. Plus it is machine washable. Would be great for travel. Comes in black and gray in sizes XS-L.

The Giving Movement is a sustainable brand. I like the half sleeve on this blazer, a modern take on suiting. It is made from recycled water bottles. It is moisture-wicking and quick drying.

This version of the J. Crew Willa blazer is on pre-order but would be worth the wait. A classic style for fall. Sizes 000-16. Also comes in Petite.

The long & lean blazer from Banana has a nice striped lining for flipping the sleeves. Classic style. Also comes in black.

This vest is an interesting way to do a "third piece" in your outfit. You could wear it closed as shown here or open over a fitted tee and jeans.

I like a long cardi sweater like this styled as shown over a silky dress or open like a jacket over jeans and a t-shirt for a pulled together yet casual look. Banana Republic. Two colors.

This oversized cardi by Madwell comes in four colors. It would be great for weekend and casual outings.

I have a hard crush on this salmon pink Banana corduroy blazer. One other color option.

This sweater blazer is a nice hybrid, serious enough for the office but not stuffy. Could make the transition to after hours easily.

This fitted blazer by Boden hot pink color going through it. Flip the collar for more color pops.

It's the color of fall this year. Other color options available. Really smart cord blazer by Boden.

J. Crew's Going Out blazer comes in three colors. No collar or buttons. Smart-looking for a variety of occasions whether speaking, meetings or weekend dining.

I tried these on at Club Monaco. A nice hybrid work pant, not too serious looking. It comes in black, ivory and gray. They hit me at the ankle (my legs are somewhat short).

Everlane's Way High Drape Pant is very high: 13-3/4" rise. If you have the rise to support this much real estate, go for it. This is a fun silhouette to try with slim sweaters tucked in and loafers.

Banana Republic Voyage Cargo pants. I bought a similar pair last year, and it quickly became my favorites for work (not a stuffy office pant).

Leze the Label Kendal pants are made of breathable fabric made from recycled fishnets. Elastic waist, deep pockets and a soft feel keep you comfy while work appropriate.

Vegan leather pants by M.M. Lafleur are cropped with a 11" rise. They run small, so order one size up. It comes in brown vegan leather and a few other colors (not vegan leather).

The Everlane Dream pant has a sweatpant feel. It features an elastic waist, pintuck detailing, and a sleek tapered leg. Plus, it has a flat finish. The best part: it’s wrinkle resistant. Comes in several color options.

Washable wool pants by M.M. LaFleur for those who are ready to return to a more snappy work look. There's a 3-1/2" hem allowance, so you can tailor them to the length you desire.

Gentle Herd is a sustainable company with transparency in their pricing. These cashmere pants come in oodles of colors and would be the perfect winter splurge for WFH.

Ankle length cords by Boden. Comes in petite, regular and tall.

These slim straight cords from J. Crew come in 7 colors in regular, petite and tall.

Madewell classic straight jeans. Cropped at 26" inseam. 11" rise. Many of my clients are loving their Madwells.

If you don't yet own a pair of off-white jeans, look for a pair this fall. They are very versatile and a nice break from black and dark blue during the long, gray winter.

90's high rise straight jeans by J. Crew. Nice dark blue. 11" rise.

For those struggling to let go of the skinny jean silhouette, try J. Crew's slim straight jean. This is a great dark wash for fall/winter.

The Reformation high rise straight jean is made of rigid denim. It is 100% recyclable!

Alex Mill is kind of a master at a utility jumpsuit.

Not all "nudes" are created equal. Salone Monet has three styles of heels in a variety of nudes to match darker skin tones.

Nisolo is a sustainable brand. This boot comes in five colors in sizes 5-11.

MooShoes is a vegan-owned, cruelty-free brand based in NYC. Love these clog boots. Microfiber vegan leather.

I've been crushing on Beklina clogs for a while now. The Beklina collection is produced ethically, mostly in the USA, Nepal, and Peru. It is based in California. This clog comes in five colors. If they are out of your size, you can click on it and have them email you when it's back in stock.

Lotta clogs are made responsibly in Sweden. Great price point.

These boots by Kenneth Cole's Gentle Souls is very well reviewed and well priced. If high heels are no longer an option, this 1-3/4" heel might be a good choice. It comes in five colors.

I need another ankle boot like I need a hole in the head. If I didn't have a similar boot to this one, I'd be thinking seriously about it. I like that it is hybrid between a dressy and casual boot. Comes in three colors.

This comes in an electric pink you've got to see. Click through. Dolce Vita has a good price point.

Not your usual Frye boot style, and I like it.

I like the wide supportive heel on this Dolce Vita boot.

This nifty rain boot comes in four color options. The lace detail in the back is a fun touch.

These Frances Valentine heels are splurgy. If you add nothing else to your fall wardrobe, fresh shoes and a bag will do the trick. These come in five great colors.

I've had a hard crush on heeled Tory Burch loafers for a while. These come in black and bone.

These Birdies "smoking slippers" come in oodles of color and print choices.

Ready for the classic penny loafer? J. Crew has it in two colors.

I own the Sam Edelman Loraine loafers in gold metallic. The black velvet would be nice for holiday parties.

The loafer style is going nowhere, so if you've been thinking of buying a pair, go for it. This toe box is nicely narrow to lengthen the leg.

Mixed reviews on this lug sole loafer but too cute not to share. Worth a try if you love them.

If you aren't fully on board with ankle boots, this high-top sneak by Saint & Sofia might be what you get.

This sneaker says Rock & Roll on the side. LOVE that. It's by Saint & Sofia, a sustainable brand.

For running around (not to the gym). Several color options.

This reversible bomber by Scotch & Soda has an olive green on the other side (click through to see it). This looks "spring" but it plays in all the top fall colors this season.

Marine Layer quilted bomber jacket is a poly/cotton/rayon blend. Made responsibly.

Athleta's Salutation jacket is another smart weekend zip up. Holes for thumbs.

This KUT from the Kloth faux suede moto jacket is a perennial favorite. Lightweight. Four color options. Great for business casual or weekend.

A weekend pullover by Athleta. Several color options.

Athleta moto jacket is breathable cotton. Lower hem in the back for coverage. I like the racer details on the sleeves.

Show up this winter in a great statement puffer. This is a responsible brand (Bernardo).

If you don't own a statement coat, this is one to consider. Dropped shoulders, pleated statement sleeve and a fun red/white houndstooth. Bernardo is a responsible brand.

This drop earring is elegant and modern. Wear it for day or evening.

This is what you call a statement hoop.

These Kendra Scott hoops work for day or evening.

The hobo bag is making a comeback. This is made of cactus leather. It's Everlane.

There's something cool about a sporty watch that you don't have to fuss over. I think it would look great with dressy clothing, too.

A great way to do the fall sporty trend with a pop of color.

Tory Burch bangle watch features the fall colors. No need for a bracelet!

I like the buckle on this Baukjen belt, made responsibly in Portugal.

I have this Madewell belt in brown. It has served me well.
