Fall is always a fantastic season for fashion. It’s a time to break out the layers, scarves, fluffy fabrics and handsome hats. Whether going cozy and comfortable or contrasting and contrary, fall fashion has a little something for everyone.

Practical and polished daywear is a staple of fall fashion—stylish pieces that can be dressed up or down and are at home in a boardroom or running errands. Trench coats are an excellent way to add a real sophistication over an outfit, with bold statement pieces of jewelry to finish off the look. Mixing and matching vintage pieces with new designer accessories is a whimsical way to freshen one’s style. Cozy Pendleton jackets are also a great way to layer up a look.

Alternatively, one piece can change the entire impression of an ensemble. Take, for instance, the St. John white fringe sweater over the St. John dark indigo jean and J Crew cashmere sweater. The entire look changes when the fringe sweater is swapped for the St. John plaid print coat.

For guys, puffy jackets and vests have never gone out of style and are a great way to accent a fall look and accommodate Colorado weather. Or, to fashionably level up, opt for a Pendleton lodge shirt and a Timber Cruiser jacket. Lucchese boots go pretty much with all things Colorado, from leisure to galas in the Rocky Mountains; they are a staple of many men’s wardrobes. Smart sport coats can dress up a look easily, and corduroy is making a definitive comeback.

From chic daywear to elegant evening attire, fall is the ultimate season for fashionable expression.
