As summer fades into fall and you store away your favorite white pants and wedges, get excited for all of the luxe layers and cozy knits to come!
The fall 2013 trends offer everything from worn leather to preppy plaid. For colors, the autumn palette features winter whites and a rich emerald green shade, while black, chocolate and earthy neutrals remain go-to staple hues. For shoes, knee-high boots are making their mark, with thigh-high slits offsetting the still-popular oversized silhouette for sweaters and coats.
