One of the biggest trends for fall 2017 is modern suiting.  As a big fan of menswear as womenswear, I am completely onboard and can’t wait to start incorporating this trend into my wardrobe.  For today’s look I kept things super basic with something we all have in our closets: a black blazer.  What I love about this look is that it’s acceptable and chic for just about every occasion: running errands, drinks with friends, networking and meetings.  To give it a bit of an edge, I layered several gold chains as chokers and lariats.

I picked up this Love Tatum Chloe choker at the Hotel Del pop-up event last month.  Not long after, Tatum introduced a new wrap necklace named after yours truly!  I’m so flattered and of course had to immediately start sporting my namesake piece.  Head over to Love Tatum for more gold and sliver options as well as her signature gemstone pieces.

As you think about modern suiting for fall, go bold.  This is not the season or the trend to be bashful.  Think velvet, florals, brocade, even sequins.  I especially have my eye out for two-piece tweed and houndstooth numbers, strong shoulders and anything I can wrap a corset or wide belt around.  If you’re a fan of red, you’re in luck.  Every shade on the spectrum from oxblood to scarlet is setting the fashion world on fire.

A huge bonus to this trend is that it looks great on women of all shapes, sizes and ages.  There truly is no limit.  Plus, it’s a trend that will age well.  What woman can’t use a fabulous suit?
