The 4 Must-Have Pieces for Fall

The Gray Dress: Weekend

Looser schedule? Go for less-structured clothes and experiment with pattern mixing. The striped cardigan (Rare Woman, $254), paisley scarf (Me & Kashmiere), and plaid tote (Burberry) incorporate a bunch of colors—not only the gray of the easy-fitting smock dress (Tribute, $218) but pink, purple, caramel, and wine. Neutral accessories (belt, Linea Pelle Collection; boots, J.Crew) anchor the prints.
