Your Best-Dressed Fall Week

Friday

The Trends: Purple, Full Skirt, Patent Leather

The weekend is imminent. To celebrate, put on a purple top (Alberta Ferretti, $535) with elbow-length pouf sleeves (a charming trend). Wear it under a jacket all day; show it off for dinner out. The slim fit is balanced by a satiny full skirt (Moschino, $995) whose A-line shape flatters the hips and is highly compatible with flats. A perforated pair in patent leather (Miss Bisou for JCPenney, $45) is a match for the patent leather belt (A.n.a by JCPenney, $28).
