hot cocoa

Breezy weather quickly turns chilly in the city meaning now is the best time to browse and choose which trends to use, reuse and reduce from our collections. Here's what to take away from those swanky fall/winter 2010 fashion shows seen last spring.   


WOMEN

MILITARY TREND

Etro Fall 2010 military green trend.



KNEE/ THIGH HIGH SOCK TREND

Alexander Wang Spring 2010 knee high socks.


Sarah Jessica Parker sports thigh high socks trend.

faux pas: Do not try to pass off the schoolgirl combo as an everyday outfit. The only way knee high socks paired with plaid skirts are seen as remotely acceptable anymore is on Halloween, if at all. The schoolgirl outfit was trendy once, but is frowned upon by fashionistas today and overdone.



BOYFRIEND COLLAR SHIRTS



No. 21 Fall 2010 showcases collar shirts.

MEN

MILITARY TREND
Burberry Prorsum Fall 2010 miltary green sweater.

Burberry Prorsum Fall 2010 cropped military jacket.


LEATHER

Etro Fall 2010 leather jacket.


Ryan Reynolds wears a black leather jacket.



PLAID 
                     Duckie Brown Fall 2010 plaid blazer and shirt.


"The Office" John Krasinki in plaid.


Joseph Gordon-Levitt in a plaid jacket.


faux pas: It may work on runway shows, but never try on it on the streets! Plaid on plaid does not work. Such attempt will result in a motley mess. Instead, try plaid against a neutral color like gray or navy blue to give the plaid pattern a pop in your outfit.
