And now, for a perennial fall favorite that always makes us feel warm and fuzzy inside and out: faux fur. There are few outerwear alternatives that can better fight off cold while oozing plush glamour. Paired with a simple tee and coated denim (for a wallet-friendly, PETA-approved leather look), this leopard fitted coat will have you feeling like Kate Moss on a chilly day in London. (See below for additional faux fur options.) Stud-embellished platforms, statement jewelry and a low-key messenger complete the look, while a killer strut and don't-mess-with-me attitude will have people asking, "Who's that girl?" xoxo P.S. - Don't forget to enter our JewelMint Giveaway here!

For an upcoming date night (or Girls' Night Out), the chilly night air is perfect for bare legs and covered shoulders. This striped body-conscious tank dress is ruched to hide flaws, and a simple fitted leather jacket is a staple that will last year after year. Elongate legs with these (to-die-for) sky high wedges, and keep jewelry to a minimum. Finish the look with a bright crossbody and an even brighter smile because afterall, as Audrey Hepburn famously declared, "happy girls are the prettiest girls." xoxo Get the Look!1. Mango Striped Tank Dress $80 2. Mango Cropped Leather Jacket $210 Dear Diary, A friend of mine is looking for RED skinny jeans or pants. Do you have any suggestions for her? - Kristie Dear Kristie, Your friend seems to be right on point for fall as red denim is one of the season's hottest trends, and with so many styles, shades and price points available, finding the perfect pair can be easier than you think. She should consider the style of jean that looks best on her body and take into account the shoes (especially heel height) that she most often wears. A clean classic skinny with a great ankle length (like the JBrand pair above) will have true lasting power and can easily be worn with flats, heels or tucked into boots. Add an oversized slouchy sweater and muted jewelry for a simple take on the colored denim trend. If she's feeling adventurous, the season's popular snake-print, coated denim, corduroy or velvet styles are surprisingly easy to work into your wardrobe. Below is a variety of great pairs to choose from - hope this helps! xoxo P.S. - Don't forget to check out today's Inspiration to see how celebrities have been rocking their red denim. Get the Look!3.

You lost control of your life, so you bought some sweatpants." - Karl Lagerfeld Ahh, one of our favorite parts about fall: comfy, cozy sweater dresses, a chic alternative to sweats. Add over-the-knee socks and classic flat boots, and we're in heaven. Smart statement jewelry and an ultra-soft leather satchel dress the look up and make this sweater appropriate for so many occasions. The best part? No one has to know that this wardrobe staple is more comfortable than a pair of sweats. It's the best of both worlds! xoxo Get the Look!2. Kenneth Jay Lane Beetle Ring $112 5. Timex Goldtone Mesh Watch $70 For a day out shopping with friends, this sheer sweater / denim short / distressed boot combo is spot on, and although most denim shorts transition easily into fall, these patchwork Siwy cutoffs are especially fall friendly.

Check out today's Inspiration - Kate Bosworth! Get the Look!1. Full Tilt Dolman Sweater $20 3. Fossil Mila Mini Handbag $65 5. Vanessa Mooney Ahka Necklace $45 For an upcoming concert or just a night out with the girls, bring out your inner rock star with sleek skinnies and tough accessories. Start with an edgy pair of coated denim for a great leather alternative. (Bonus: these Bleulab skinnies are 100% REVERSIBLE! No really, they are. The ultra dark military green coated side reverses to a basic pair of grey skinny jeans. Ahh, the magic of double-sided denim and sewn-in pockets.) Add a basic tank (not shown) and a loose grey top to balance the slim lines of the jeans. Studded booties, edgy gold jewelry and a bold clutch will up the wow factor and complete the look to help you stand out in any crowd. xoxo Get the Look!2. Full Tilt Batwing Sweater $22
