Elizabeth and James “Kyra” Belted Cardigan in Toast, $395.00
5.
Autumn Cashmere Double-Breasted Sweater in Maroon, $195.00
6.
Alexander Wang Long Sweater with Pockets in Charcoal, $415.00
I love three different sweaters: One is Elizabeth and James; the color is toast and it’s long and belted and has an organza ruffle down the front. Autumn Cashmere has a gorgeous double-breasted sweater in maroon that I’ve got my eye on. Finally, Alexander Wang has a long charcoal sweater with pockets that’s great.

1.
San Marcos Top, $79.95.
"I love tie dye with a touch of glam! The length on this is perfect and it has a fabulous shape!"
2.
Parisian Jacket, $110.95.
"The collar frames the face perfectly. I love the combination of boiled wool and taffeta. It creates layers of texture and has a great shape."
3.
Rock Star Shirt, $89.95.
"I love that it's silk! The length is just right to belt and it's
perfect to wear under a tailored jacket to create contrast and interest. It's just as cool buttoned up as unbuttoned."

1.
Cashmere-Blend, Chunky Cable Collar Cardigan in Mid-Grey, $825.00
“It’s a great piece over slouchy trousers for work. For traveling and weekend-wear it’s great with jeans."
2.
Cashmere Fine Gauge V-Neck Long Sleeved A-line Dress in Plum, $438.00
“The dress is lightweight and versatile. In the daytime I wear it with Wolford leggings in dark grey. For dinner, I’ll quickly change into a heel or bootie, an over-the-top necklace or cuff and a great bag.”
3.
Cashmere-Blend, Ribbed ½ Cardigan Stitch Oversized Wrap Coat in Mid-Grey, $495.00
“This piece works with everything. I wear so much black, so gray is a softer accent to go with the fall colors this season; plum, eggplant and olive. It also works for travel, work, weekend-wear or dinner. In the evening I add an elbow-length leather glove and a tall leather boot.”

Love them………on others. With heavy thighs, most of these styles are for slender shapes. Just lost 100 pounds and there is no way I could pull some of these off.
These clothes are partly the reason I rarely visit this site. Being in rural Michigan and retired, I could no more pay 825.00 for a sweater than I could buy a new car every couple years. This is a great section of the website, but only if you live in the burbs or a big city. What in heaven’s name do people do for a living that these are reasonable prices??
Yes, aren’t those boots fabulous?!
Love your taste – oui to the boots and the wrap sweaters!
