Wear your preppy style sweater over any button down.

An always go-to look for Reese Witherspoon.

The essential look when out and about!

A trench as a dress?

Did you ever think a trench coat could also be worn as a dress? Yes a trench coat is an obvious outerwear choice during the fall and spring seasons - but this morning we are showing you that it can also be worn as a dress. We are in love with RED Valentino's floral lightweight trench coat - with the beautiful painterly floral you are not going to want to save this coat for just strictly outerwear. The swing-style will give an instant impact to any little black dress or cocktail separates.

 

HOW TO SWITCH IT UP:

Add a statement belt - F&C suggests exotic print, bold colour, or embellishment.

Don't zip the jacket up all the way. F&C suggests leaving it open enough to show off a stunning necklace.

Not sure what to wear on your legs? F&C suggests to give a nighttime feel sheer black tights. Out and about during the day, throw on a turtleneck, add black, charcoal, olive green, or burgundy opaque tights and a tall flat boot.

 

When you have a statement essential in your wardrobe, your outfit will easily come together, effortlessly!

Quick & Easy Styling Tips

Start the week off right - with some quick and easy styling tips!

Think pastel blazers are only meant for spring/summer? An easy way to transition the soft palette is wearing it over a neutral colour head to toe. For example, a black top and black bottom. Other neutral suggestions - grey, charcoal, navy, and cream. Let the jacket be the main focus point in your outfit.

 

Want to quickly add glam to your wool winter coat? Add a real or faux fur collar.

F&C Style Tip: Don't just save it for your winter coat, add to any blazer, dress, or blouse.

 

A print scarf is the perfect way to add character to any outfit.

 





 

Fresh Dress Ideas



Are you in a wardrobe rut? Consider it gone! Sometimes all it takes is the right dress

 

FRESH DRESS IDEA #1

Reinvent the casual daytime or weekend look with a long sleeve, cozy dress.

Wear during the day: Chunky knit scarf, opaque tights, and a tall flat boot.

Wear during the evening: Chandelier earrings, black sheer tights, and animal print heels.



 

FRESH DRESS IDEA #2

Mix three shades of one colour to really make a statement. A fresh way to wear the sombre shade of grey.

 

FRESH DRESS IDEA #3

Wear a bold print dress with bright accessories. For evening wear a sheer black tight and a fur vest. To make it more daytime appropriate, wear with a solid hue blazer and opaque tights.

 

F&C Style Tip: A fresh way to wear the sleek pencil skirt

The Game Changer

From creative meetings to downtown parties, the peplum top continues to be an essential in your fall/winter wardrobe. We are currently obsessed with the tartan peplum top from must-have designer, McQ Alexander McQueen. The tartan style is a cool choice for every occasion!

 

Did you know that figure-enhancing peplums have become a McQ Alexander McQueen signature?

 

 

How to make the peplum top work-friendly:

Wear with a cropped jacket or cardigan, slim pants or pencil skirt. Step it up with a leather pencil skirt. For more options, add a stylish belt around the waist.

 

F&C Style Tips:

For your next formal event, wear the peplum top with floor-sweeping skirt.

Balance the feminine peplum waist with black leather pants or skinny denim.

 



When in doubt...

Are you looking for an innovative way to wear your basic blazer? It doesn't take much. All you need is a belt. Belting the outside of your blazer, is a great way to create shape. The best part about belting your blazer is that you can wear it with everything. When it comes to finding the perfect belt for your wardrobe - we always look to our go-to designer SUZI ROHER.

 

Want to add style to your power suit? Most likely your power suit is in a neutral colour (black, grey, camel or navy) we suggest adding a statement belt to your outfit. What do we mean by statement belt? Animal print, bold colour, embellishment, a belt that is going to make you stand out. 

 

 

Sexy. Sophisticated. Sheer.

When shopping for hosiery this season, keep three words in mind:

1. Sexy 2. Sophisticated 3. Sheer

Yes the opaque and thick cashmere tights are essential (especially during the winter) but right now you cannot go wrong with black sheer hosiery. We suggest you stock up and always bring an extra pair in your purse for those unexpected rips. Pick yourself up the classic sheer, but now is the time to add some print and texture to your hosiery wardrobe.

 

F&C Style Tip: Make sure you take off your rings and bracelets before putting on the sheer hose.

 

 

Wear under everything from fitted skirts to flared dresses.

How To Look Effortlessly Chic

How to Look Effortlessly Chic in Cool Weather:

We often get asked what the secrets are when dressing effortlessly chic, and well the answer is pretty simple - Wearing the key items and not over thinking your outfit choice. You don't need a huge selection to choose from, but items that reflect your personal style and lifestyle.  

 

Don't underestimate the power of a silk blouse, dark denim, and the classic riding boot.

 

 

It's all about stylish layers during the fall/winter seasons. Chic items to live in and will always create a "wow" factor - Fur vest, chunky knit, and leather pants.

 

 

A scarf is a definite cool weather essential, mainly because it will keep you warm but it can also be treated as a "soft necklace".  Sombre palettes are in high demand, to add warmth select a scarf in a colour that suits you best.

 

Effortlessly chic, Gwyneth Paltrow proves that all you need is a great pair of jeans, a chic blazer and a stylish scarf.

 

 

 



What To Try NOW

There are so many rich shades to choose from this season, and one colour we strongly suggest you try is royal blue.  

 

F&C Style Tip: Punctuate the saturated hue with platinum accessories for an evening look.

 

 

F&C Style Tip: Instead of the classic black leather jacket, why not add a jolt of colour to your winter wardrobe. You can wear royal blue with every colour and print.

 

F&C Style Tip: Invigorate your fall wardrobe with a splash of colour under all of your somber hue suiting. 

 

STREET STYLE: Wearing Royal Blue
