Clients have been asking... what dress/skirt length is current for Fall?

Mid-calf length skirts or dresses are some of the BIG hits this fall/winter. Everyone can pull off this style, it's practical and fashion-forward this season. Balance the length with something simple on top, keep the lines clean, make sure your heel height and boot length compliment your figure, and work well with the length.  Try it all on together to personalize your look and find a combination which compliments your figure. Donna Karan's dresses are a favourite for comfort and style. Add a few tasteful touches of sky-rocketing GOLD anything to finish off your overall fall/winter 2011 look.

REV UP YOUR STYLE FOR FALL 2011


From the Toronto stylist's couch:
6 quick up-dates to add
punch to your fall/winter 2011 look:

- Lace Detailing.

- Motorcycle ankle boots: a few hardware accents, paired with slouchy legwarmers; chunky knits are back to stay!

- Soft-as-butter leather jackets (
yessss again to black or camel)

- Jade, emerald, jewel tones... or mustard; add colour pops in small doses, moderation is key to a wearable look. Try over-sized cocktail ring or cuff bracelets.

- Plaids! If you can 't stomach this, try adding plaid lining to a jacket.

If all else fails, copy the pros and add a great pair of diva sunglasses. And check out the latest at Spectacles Boutique Toronto.
