Long leather gloves. “I can’t champion these enough. They look so chic, and they’re a great way to stretch out your autumn outerwear [into winter].” Marc Jacobs and Prada popularized them, but Vera Wang makes a more affordable variety for Kohl’s ($50 at kohls.com).
Wide-leg jeans. The reign of tight, low-rider jeans is finally over. Look for denim that rides higher on your waist and has more room in the leg. Krentcil suggests wearing them with a heel. “A little elevation goes a long way with this fit,” she says. “Otherwise, you could look stumpy.” Look for the Made in Heaven brand at Intermix stores or for Grey Ant jeans ($253 to $330) at shopbop.com.
Plastic accessories. Good news for your wallet: the trendiest jewelry this season is more likely to turn up at Target than Tiffany. Look for colorful plastic rings ($35) at madeher think.com or for the Dominique Cohen line at Target stores (from $14.99). “But don’t overdo it,” says Krentcil.
Colored tights. Wear blue or purple with a black dress. And don’t be afraid to pair them with open-toed shoes— yet another great way to move your warm-weather items into winter.
