Model: Lauren
Look: Daytime, Casual

Our first model Lauren looks cool and casual in a great pair of Big Star
skinny jeans.

To take her closet from summer to fall, Lauren should keep her skinny jeans
and tee.

Fashion To Add:

– A chunky knit cardigan: while this Line sweater is comfy and oversized, it’s also cut to flatter the body, so she doesn’t lose her silhouette.

– Knee-high flat boots: this pair by Reef is made with genuine leather, and the Aztec detailing is on-trend for fall.

Model: Anna
Look: Evening Out

Our next model ANNA starts off looking pure summer chic, in a figure-flattering wrap maxi dress, open toe heels, and necklace by 8 Other Reasons.

Jewelry – A statement necklace can really punch up your evening look, so we
want Anna to keep hers this season.

Fashion To Add:

– Dress shorts – an updated take on the LBD, a pair of tailored black dress shorts keep this look fun and flirty. Be sure to tuck your top in so you don’t “lose” your waistline with these blousy bottoms.

– Tights – these are Hanes Convert-a-Tight, literally two pairs in one! Fold the toe over for full coverage, or wear them “footless” depending on your look.

– Cropped jacket – this metallic blazer by Line & Dot adds just the right amount of sparkle; you want just a hint of shimmer to keep this look sophisticated – no sequins!

Model: John
Look: Daytime, Casual

John’s basic fitted jeans and Electric t-shirt are total must have wardrobe staples.

To take this look from summer to fall, John can keep his fitted jeans and tee.

Fashion To Add:

– Chambray Hoodie by Electric – upgraded on the classic cotton hoodie!

– Slip ons by Timberland – still comfortable and easy to slide on, suede material is on-trend for fall.

– Peugeot watch – a watch can be a great conversation starter – who doesn’t love a good timepiece! Accessories are a great way to incorporate a bit of color into your look this season.

Model: Eric
Look: From The Office to Happy Hour

Our model Eric is office-appropriate in his chinos, Timberland oxford and suede dress shoes.

How can we take this a step further for fall? Eric can actually keep all of these wardrobe staples, and move into fall with these fashion samples.

Fashion To Add:

– Knit cardigan by Grayers – it’s still warm here in LA, so a cardigan is a great alternative to a jacket until the winter cold kicks in!

– Everett Vintage Fabric Tie – the vintage tweed fabric is on-trend for fall, and keeps the look stylish. These ties are handmade in NYC and they use a variety of fabrics and textures.
