An Answer to Your Question

Question: How can I update the classic white shirt and straight skirt combo for fall?

Answer: Fur-collar cardigan ♣ try tights and lace-up booties for more coverage ♣ use the same cardigan with an earth-tone tee and OTKs (over-the-knee) for more edge

Our Recommendation: Brunello Cucinelli @ Neiman Marcus (Check ruched pencil skirt, $535; Shearling-collar cardigan, $2,195)

Notes: the asymmetry of the sweater and detailing keep it from adding volume to your silhouette; the pencil skirt creates shape; the balance of heavy on top and fitted on the bottom make this friendly for bustier ladies as well as more full-figured women; the shorter sleeves on the cardigan allow more color to come through for greater continuity in the outfit!
