Getting Dolled Up for Fall: How Plaid, Zippers, Motorcycle Details and Menswear Blazers Make the Girl

The combination of masculine sounding, halloween imagery evoking, edgy title cuts can seem downright petrifying. Not since the Nineties have these trends undercut our feminimity, but upon their return, we've actually fallen for these old haunts.

In girlie cuts, almost preppy color schemes, luxe fabrics and with just enough frill everything seems to be our friend.

Plaid pieces from Gemma and Amanda Uprichard have us thinking SJP circa Footloose, with leggings and distressed cowboy boots.



When it comes to zipper details, LNA does it like no other. With zip front skirts and down the back t-shirts, these cotton and lycra pieces are effortlessly sexy, and can be summed up with one word: "cool."

Since that just isn't enough zipper for your entire wardrobe, we can depend on a leather Plastic Island Bomber jacket (not pictured), a clover Tracey Reese dress with exposed zipper down the back, and ever-reliable LA Made for fall pieces.





Come in to Crush or visit our online store for more edgy details for Autumn, we'll be here falling for these:
