Time to Buy: The Perfect Coat
Fall and winter's must-have coats are in! It's time to buy that perfect coat, your signature look for the season. Your coat is a statement maker, an outfit topper, and, hopefully, a style stealer. The peacoat is back, but better than ever in pop colors like plum, teal, and plaid. The trench is also big; look for it in a calf-sweeping length. But 2011's trends are really in the details: fur hoods and collars are huge, as is leather trim. Another trend to steal for yourself? Contrasting sleeves. Use these styles as a guide for your quest to the perfect coat:
1. Diane von Furstenberg Mid Dietrich Peacoat ($495)
Plum perfect, but technically "raisin red" according to DVF. Classic shapes in pop colors are a sure fire way to make a statement this season. This color will brighten up the dull gray days of winter, while its trim, double-breasted cut will pull your look together.
2. See by Chloé Double-breasted Wool Coat in Camel ($995)
Chic when belted at the waist, carefree when worn open and loose over layers. You just can't get it wrong with a smart, neutral trench. Rich camel color in a long, calf-grazing length.
3. Temperley London Leather-trimmed Shearling Coat ($3210)
Fun begins with fur. This Temperley London nails several trends all at once: contrasting leather sleeves, leather trim, and a fur collar. Open or closed, this coat sets the style standard wherever you go.
4. Sonia by Sonia Rykiel Wool and Cashmere Blend Coat ($800)
Pretty in peach! Feminine and flirty, this warm, rosy-toned coat is sure to put a little spring in your step. Accentuate your curves with its slim bow-tied waist and full, fun skirt. Front slant pockets with side zip and double snap collar.
5. Alexander Wang Aviator Tailcoat ($1995)
Hip hybrid. Alexander Wang combines two iconic styles to create one hip coat: a tuxedo tailcoat and an aviator. Leather trim, elbow patches, and tabs provide plenty of visual interest, but its long tail and oversized collar are the real statement makers.
Runway Addition
By Heather | September 9, 2011
Simple addition, sophisticated style. Alice + Olivia is our first edition of Runway Addition, a series of posts that takes a runway look and breaks it down with simple math. From the Alice + Olivia's Fall 2011 show, this look combines two unexpected staple styles: a very girly, sequin-embellished shift and a tough, fur-finished parka. Wear together for a runway fabulous look or wear separately to get you through the season in style.
1. Alice + Olivia Vista Beaded Tunic Dressm($495)
Sequins and sheen. This simple tunic shape is neutral done in the most eye-catching way. Sequins, beads, and rhinestone accents add bling to this silk chiffon dress. Mesh inset and exposed zip at back. Layer it up for a casual vibe or let it stand alone to make a statement come cocktail hour.
2. ONE by Fishtail Parka ($1771)
Rugged parka + cocktail dress = runway magic. This washed leather coat features a detachable fur trim at the hood, snap-flap hip pockets, and snap and zip front closures. Layer it over a cocktail dress or jeans and a tee....both are fab for fall!
3. Diane von Furstenberg Weaver Suede Wedge Boots ($440)
Slouchy sophistication. A covered wedge heel, sexy peep toe, and slouchy suede upper add up to one beautiful Italian boot. Let these DVF's take center stage with your favorite skirt or dress.
4. DKNY 421 Control Top Opaque Tights ($14.50)
Flawless foundation. These DKNY tights provide a slim, sexy sillhouette to build upon. Layer under skirts and dresses for coverage and control, not to mention warmth and style!
Floor Length Frocks
By Heather | September 8, 2011
Dramatic, bold, and romantic. Three words that sum up this fall's fashions...and this fall's floor length frocks. A spin-off from summer's floor-sweeping maxi skirts and dresses, floor length dresses are big for autumn. Go 70's with a retro print or mod with colorblocking. Layer up a neutral color for a twist on preppy or go So Cal cool with a leg-baring sheer skirt. Bohemian, dramatic, mod, or trendy...there's a floor length frock for every woman out there!
1. Blu Moon Free Love Dress ($187)
Boho beauty. This post would be seriously lacking without a nod to the bohemian trend that continues to rage on the runways. This Blu Moon is the epitomie of bohemian bliss: free-flowing skirt in a peace-loving floral print with a romantic deep v-neck and simple drawstring waist.
2. Rachel Pally Aurora Long Dress ($246)
Sultry seventies. Playing into the 70's trend, this long dress has a vintage-inspired print on a warm, rosy background. Layer with platform booties and a stunning pendant necklace for an any-occasion look. Scoop neck with a retro blouson bodice, ruching and banding at waist, and an unfinished hem.
3. Ted Baker Orchid Print Jersey Maxi Dress ($217)
Drama queen. This Ted Baker makes a statement wherever it goes. Drama and sophistication are in perfect balance: sleek black boatneck meets dramatic digitally printed orchid design maxi skirt. An exposed zipper completes this ultra modern picture.
4. Nightcap Cothing Melange Maxi Dress ($209)
New neutral. Shying away from the head-to-toe statement that a maxi dress makes? Have no fear...neutrals are here! Layer it up with a vest or jacket for a cozy casual feel, perfect for romping in the leaves or Saturday morning at the market.
5. Karina Grimaldi Biscot Boatneck Long Sleeve Dress ($196)
Ultra mod. Colorblocking is stealing the stage this season with its throwback mod vibe. Get your dose with this Karina Grimaldi dress. Its graphic gray and black blocked skirt takes a simple silhouette and fast-forwards it to mod modern.
6. Blue Life Tank T Chiffon Dress ($118)
Don't fear...get sheer! This Blue Life is boho meets the beach. This summer's Native American print meets this fall's sheer skirt for a totally now statement dress. Cotton/modal tank bodice leads into a stunning silk chiffon skirt.

4. Blue Life Cocoon Top ($75)
Slouchy gets sexy. Throw on this mod neutral with leggings or rock it with heels and a wide belt...either look captures the California casual vibe of the brand. Composed of super soft, semi-sheer burnout fabric.
5. Blue Life O So Easy Skirt ($127)
Tie dye for the 2000's. Summer's must-have maxi gets a little hippie vibe with the O So Easy Skirt. Pair with a simple tank now and layer up to wear into the cooler months.

Tisdale style, for sure. Can't you see Ashley rocking this belly-baring tank with her cutoffs and gladiators? This tank is really a signature piece of the collection with its boho flair and easy, breezy beach flavor. Jersey top with draped sides and a lace back panel and asymmetrical hem.
