You know black and white has always been a classic combination, but this season it is also right on-­‐ trend. Shop (your closet, retail, or resale) these key accessories to help you chicly segue into the chillier months!

Boots of all shapes and sizes have been huge for A/W11. Pick up a heeled lace-­‐up number in a classic shape with good construction to pair with a maxi skirt, anchor a flowy silk skirt, or complement a lace dress.

In the mood for Missoni (or just missed out on the Missoni for Target pieces!)? Pair this classic Missoni Zigzag Stripe Beanie with your favorite leather moto jacket or black crop top for some graphic interest.

Leather and fur have been big the past two A/W seasons and historically, this has also been the case. One fantastic, eco-­‐friendly option for getting your hands on some leather or fur this season is to look for beautifully kept resale of classic investment pieces such as a pair of long, elbow length leather gloves or a fur stole.

Last but not least, some glamorous shades in a vintage or vintage-­‐inspired shape, like these Prada butterfly frames, are always going to be in style and are the perfect complement to a black and white ensemble. Add a swipe of red lipstick and a neutral shade of nailpolish (like this Essie shade in Glamour Purse, part of their Fall 2011 collection) and you will absolutely be ready for wherever your day takes you!
