Talbots | Fall Classics

this post brought to you by opens in a new windowTalbots

can you believe five weeks ago the fall classics series launched with opens in a new windowTalbots? what a fun gig it’s been as  opens in a new windowTalbots Fall Classics Guest Editor where we’ve taken a look at ten classic items week by week. if you missed any of the previous posts, i’m sharing those with you today. the series kicked off labor day weekend with a opens in a new windowclassic ponte blazer and slim ankle jeans. the second week zeroed in on a perennial favorite the opens in a new windowclassic pencil skirt, week three was all about a opens in a new windowponte sheath dress in indigo blue that’s perfect for work. last week we talked about opens in a new windowhampshire ankle pants, audrey – a cashmere sweater, the perfect shirt, and francesca driving mocs. which brings us to today’s post where we take a look at two classic wardrobe essentials that every closet should include – the opens in a new windowcharming cardigan and opens in a new windowsilk scarf. 

today, i’m wearing the opens in a new windowcharming cardigan and opens in a new windowsilk scarf with two different outfits. the first ootd pairs the opens in a new windowclassic cardigan with a traditional fall pattern – glen plaid. the muted hues of coral and brown give a fresh update to this opens in a new windowtailored pencil skirt. one way to keep the classics from becoming stale or stodgy is to reach for modern or trendy accessories. what’s hotter than animal print this year? so i added opens in a new windowleopard haircalf wedges into the mix for good measure. a opens in a new windowkid suede statement handbag compliments the fall color scheme. but the star of this show is a multi-patterned opens in a new windowsilk scarf that gives the outfit a pop of color.

in my book, there’s nothing more beautiful than a opens in a new windowsilk scarf that can be worn so many different ways. opens in a new windowTalbots has a wonderful tutorial on how to tie your scarf in five ways. this particular scarf was designed by Hannah Davies from South Wales, UK. it’s part of opens in a new windowTalbots Art of the Scarf collection that features five limited-edition, one-of-a-kind scarves created by internationally renowned female artists. and the best part is that 20% of net proceeds benefit the National Breast Cancer Foundation.® doing good and looking good truly go hand-in-hand.
