With a nod to Katharine Hepburn’s polished silhouette, fall fashion pays homage to the classic panache of the tailored jacket. But instead of the matchy-matchy look of yore, fashion folks are mixing and matching uptown elegance with street sass.
Try these looks: an elegant velvet jacket with cuffed-to-the-knee jeans; a shrunken corduroy blazer with a tweed pencil skirt and wide belt; a simple brushed-cotton jacket with high-waisted boy-cut trousers. Add a brooch, some unmatched pearl necklaces or a long, skinny scarf, and you’ve got insta-chic.
