Here's What We're Ditching and Buying to Enhance Our Fall Looks

Heading into fall - I’m a big fan of editing my closet at least once a month; I’m always inspired when I see what the new trends are, and that inspires me to make room for updates and let go of what no longer “sparks joy,” thanks to the queen of clearing out the clutter Marie Kondo! Also, clearing out my closet encourages me to adapt my style and try something new. I love the classics, and a chic street-style vibe is my go-to, but most of all, I like to keep it fresh, keep it stylish and keep it exciting!

My fashion-lover friend Melissa Meyers and I were excited to share our full list on Who What Wear, and we hope you can find a little inspiration along with a few good deals! and meet Blaize Caprice - a new young designer where glamour meets sleek and sophisticated.

Wearing Oversized Button Downs Instead of Fitted

“Master the effortless style with this oversized “August” White Button-Down by Blaize Caprice. The styling opportunities for this hero piece are endless; it’s a wardrobe essential that every closet needs. Because it’s so versatile, there is an overwhelming assortment of options. Love the appeal of the exaggerated large cuff.”

Ditching Skinny Fitted Jeans for Looser High Waisted Jeans with Wider Leg

“These slouchy jeans are my favorite at the moment. Even though I’m petite because they’re high-waisted, they visually elongate your legs, plus you can create your cuff size, and the crossover front panel gives an elevated look for day or night. You’ll look stylish and comfortable.”

Two of our favorite brands make mixing high & low fashion easy to do. Of course, there’s no right or wrong way to do it, but finding that balance of quality and budget-friendly pieces helps to elevate your style affordably, and you’ll have fun creating your personal style.

ZARA RAIN GEAR + ELAINE KIM TECH STRETCH

Grab your rain-gear! When the rain returns I’ll be ready. It looks like there are serious snowflakes falling on the east coast, anyone else making snowmen? Here in L.A., we don’t really need a heavy jacket but lately, I’m getting a lot of use out of my fun rain gear from ZARA (If you’re looking for a little “street style” vibe.) Also available in olive green.

(Go 1 full size down - I am a size 7 these are a size 6.)

Lot’s of cozy and stylish sweats to be had and I’m really enjoying lounging in these sweatpants/pullover - It’s super soft and looks good on the streets and on your couch. My #1 favorite - Sydney Evan Jewelry - Great Valentine’s Day gift idea!

Adding a scarf is an easy way to elevate your look for stand-out style. Lately, Mr. Buster… in the background has been sporting his plaid jacket.

Elaine Kim designed her tech stretch pant with movement in mind and look great while doing it. I’ve gotten so much wear out of this REVERSIBLE PADDED JACKET from ZARA Get it now before they sell out! It’s great to wear over your chunky sweaters and not feel constrained. Easy to pack and adds a little trend and edge.

Use Code JANET15 for All Elaine Kim

Hold on to your classic bags that you invested in years ago, it all comes back around.

Reversible Padded Jacket - ZARA

It looks like we’re having all sorts of cold and wet weather. I always find great sales at Mango and trendy pieces from ZARA. Think I’ll head back inside… not sure if I’m ready to get back out there! How about you?

Have fun, stay healthy, and thank you for reading,

xx, Janet
