Fall is more than a season, it’s a state of mind. Use these three French style philosophies to embrace a season that celebrates rich tones, cozy vibes and reinvention.

1. Choose A Neutral Palette

Black, Ecru, Burgundy, Navy, Taupe and Grey. Neutrals can be paired with practically any other colour, while keeping the look polished. You can also mix in more vibrant pops of colour by complementing an outfit with accessories like a statement handbag or a silk scarf to pull the look together.

2. Invest in Basics

A beautiful button-down shirt, a chic silk camisole, black trousers and a pair of tailored jeans. Choose pieces that can be mixed and matched to create a variety of different outfits. Simple doesn’t mean boring.

3. Learn to Layer

Pull your look together by adding an extra layer. It could be a blazer, a scarf or a piece of jewelry. Choose something that adds a layer of interest, while keeping the look cohesive.
