Camden Doctor Bag

 

I am loving the various faux fur finds in our Winter Outerwear Collection. Faux fur is everywhere this season—boot cuffs, bags, sweaters and coats. If I can load-up on some cozy items, I won’t even need to use this amazing Pumpkin Spice Latte recipe I found to warm up. I’ll be nice and cozy, and ready for anything!  (While we’re gearing up for cool weather here, our spring photo shoot is in full swing in sunny California—check out Maureen’s blog for updates) —Serena

Sweater Cape

The latest sweater cape trend is just-in-time to prepare us for fall’s early chill. Whether you work in a temp-sensitive office, or have to don something for a quick run to the market or a cab ride across town, it’s the staple for the season that fashion editors just can’t get enough of.

Our version comes in classic camel and has the best swingy shape (it camouflages the tummy and looks sensational with jeans and leggings too).

Totally, completely effortless!

Layer it with a scarf if you need even more warmth. —Serena

How would you style it? “LIke” us on Facebook to let us know what you think of the sweater cape trend.

The color Red always injects a little excitement into your wardrobe.  Never bashful, it’s the color that catches attention and demands a second look.  Even the trees are starting to turn into beautiful hues of gold, orange and rich red. There’s a reason Stop signs are red…! And there’s nothing like a gorgeous pump or patent purse to stop traffic.  :)  If you want to start small…try m. vie lipstick in Marooned—we know you’ll love “going red!” —Serena

Leopard Print Frame Bag

The vintage trend is going full tilt—our Leopard Frame Bag is one of this season’s hottest, and it’s the perfect color to bring with you into fall.

The sweater below reminds me of something Audrey Hepburn would have worn in any number of her films—it’s got that classic style that stands the test of time.

Draped Open Sleeve Top by Cenia Paredes

Fall’s Retro Floral fashions capture the color of the season and are the perfect answer for when weather goes hot-to-cool and back again…The top above from NYC designer Cenia Paredes is just the right print to transition beautifully, and it goes well with light sweaters for crisp mornings.

Braided Chain Handbag by Barbara Palacios

Our designers are right on target with color this season—this Braided Chain Handbag in crackled pecan makes me think of the chestnut vendors in Central Park—a great place to sit and people-watch to spy the latest fashion trends.

Check out Maureen’s latest blog to view our new m. vie™ fall makeup. If we have to let go of summer, thank goodness for all the vibrant fall color to come!  —Serena
