What I want to wear on and off the slopes this winter! (Can't wait for Cloud Nine!)

1. Chinti and Parker cashmere sweater,
2. Fendi patchwork fur jacket,
3. Rag & Bone messenger bag,
4. Gianvito Rossi leather boots,
5. M.i.H Jeans,

Fall arrived overnight in LA. Yesterday morning I was in a bikini. Today, I'm wrapped up in a cozy sweater and jeans. Thus, the timing of this find is perfect. The lace-up sleeves make it sexy and statement-y, and its price can't be beat. I also wouldn't mind staying warm in these standout knits by , , , , and .

The bow/camo combo is so unexpected--and good!

I've been on a dress-wearing streak lately. In fact, I can't remember the last time I wore a pair of jeans! LA's endless summer is enabling this stylish whim of mine, but I'm also hooked on the throw-on-and-go ease of a dress. I'd like to perpetuate my streak straight into fall with the no-fail slip-dress-sweater combo. It's a look that both comfortable, feminine and yes, throw on and go. I'd happily slip into these dresses by , , (also this ), , and .

I love the idea of wearing a cardigan as a jacket--and this is the time of year to do it (or at least we're getting close to it)! This nubby has all the trappings of outerwear: it's cozy, chunky, yet still light enough to be indoor friendly. It's hard to see from this pic, but the yarn bobbles form cute heart shapes. In other words, it's adorbs--and under $100. Yes, please!

The stripes, brass buttons, and sporty-chic vibe add up to my kind of sweater.

This sequin skirt not only looks opulent and expensive, but has the power to pull together a party-perfect look.

With September winding down(!), I'm working on winter's sweater game, and my action plan is: go big, or go home. As you can see here, it's all about the oversized knit, souped up with balloon sleeves, puff shoulders and billowy silhouettes. I love the open-back , above, (also ), and these by , , , , and .

Balloon sleeves, a flattering nipped-in waist and an open back--my kind of statement sweater!

I want to throw this cozy, chic poncho over everything--a jacket, leather moto, cashmere turtleneck--to fend off fall's chill. (I also love it in cream.)
