I am a sucker for cable knit winter sweaters! The cable knit design is a classic pattern that is beautiful and stylish, and like many of you, I have been sporting them for decades. I’m wearing a medium, and it fits me great.

This Amazon Essentials sweater is so soft and comfy and comes in several different cute patterns. I’ve been a huge fan of FairIsle sweaters for years, and I love the shades of blue in this one. A FairIsle print is a classic print that screams Fall Is Here! I’m wearing a medium, and it fits me great.

I grabbed this sweater a few years ago, and it’s still a classic choice for fall and winter. I’m wearing a large, which is a tad big on me, but the medium seemed to be slightly tight. This sweater is sooo soft, and it comes in a ton of colors.

This looks like the kind of soft and comfy sweater I would want to throw on every single day when it gets cool outside! It will look great with both athleisure and casual wear. It comes in six different colors, but this olive green is my favorite. I would probably wear this with black jeans, but it looks great with the faux leather leggings.

Here’s another knit cardigan that gives me all the vibes of the lady jacket trend we loved last year! It’s the perfect piece to toss over a tee or tank when you want to elevate your look, especially with the chic gold buttons.

This oversized sweater is such a cute and comfy option instead of a jacket on chilly days! I’m loving the scalloped trim—it gives it a little something extra. It’s perfect for church, the office, dinner, or wherever. If you want it to be a bit more fitted, I’d say size down for a better fit.

I love how the color blocking adds a fun twist to this striped cardigan! If you’re into bold colors, definitely check out the other options—it comes in some really funky combinations that would be super fun to try. Perfect for adding a little pop of personality to your outfit!

Texture always adds a lot of visual interest to an outfit, and boy, does this sweater have a lot of texture, LOL! I think this would be super cute over a basic tee with jeans and booties. The sleeves kind of remind me of an owl’s feathers or maybe fish scales. Hahaha!

Wearing Pink For Fall

Here’s another great cardigan to add to your arsenal for fall and winter! I really like this feminine pink and purple combo, but it comes in several solid colors as well. What do you think about the gradient pink design?

This sweater would look so cute over a column of solid color, like a black top paired with black pants. This is available in several different color combinations in case you’re not into pink, pink, and more pink.

I tried to find a variety of casual and dressier sweaters. This one is a great one that can do both! I really like the contrasting white stripe and thick chunky knit. Rich chocolate browns are a great choice for fall, but it’s available in five other color combinations!

I love henley-style tops, like this one which has slight waffle texture! They are perfect for showing off a necklace with their flattering neckline, and they add just the right amount of detail with the buttons.

This striped sweater is a must-have for casual days! It’s going to look super cute paired with your favorite jeans and crisp white sneakers. Perfect for everything from weekend brunch to running errands in style!

You gurls know that I’m a pink lover! This puff sleeve sweater is the ultimate girly top to add to your fall rotation. I love how they have it styled with leather pants here, but it would work with a regular pair of denim jeans too!

What do you think about this unique, chunky sweater? I think it’s soo cute, and I love this muted pink color! I think I would pair it with some flare jeans to balance out the oversized sleeve.

This is the kind of cozy, oversized sweater that I love wearing around the house and running errands in! Sweaters are super versatile, so you could definitely dress it up with a great pair of pants and heeled boots.

Lightweight Sweaters For Fall

I own this v-neck sweater in two different colors. You gurls have heard all about how leopard is on trend for fall, so I couldn’t resist sharing it again. If you would like to see how it looks on an actual human body, you can see me wearing a camel-colored one in the post I did on Some Of The Best Pullover Sweaters For Women Over 50.

Basic tops like this classic crewneck sweater are the foundation of so many great outfits! They can be styled so many different ways, like under a blazer or denim jacket or with jeans or a skirt. This classic sweater comes in many colors, and make sure you check out the white cheetah print!

Vests For Fall

I’ve really been into sweater vests for the last few years! They are a classic and chic layering piece, and they look wonderful worn over a button-up. This one comes in so many different colors and patterns! It’s extra long and would be great for wearing with leggings.

How cute are the feminine details on this gorgeous sweater? I love the ruffles at the neck and the pretty vintage-inspired buttons. It would be fun to find a similar earring to wear with it!

Here’s another preppy-inspired piece that’s giving me vintage vibes, especially with the V-shaped neckline, polo collar, and rugby stripe. I love brown for fall, but I am also a big fan of the apricot color! This looks really oversized, so take that into consideration if ordering.

Navigating the transitional seasons presents a unique style challenge, especially in climates like Charleston’s where warmth and humidity persist. Embracing the shift into autumn requires a balance of aesthetics: pieces that nod to the richer tones and textures of fall, yet remain light enough to wear comfortably in lingering heat. Opting for garments that blend seasonal cues with practicality—such as skirts with richer colors and breathable fabrics—allows for both elegance and comfort during this period. I have been loving shades of brown as my lead transitional color. It helps me feel like I’m dressing for fall, but I’m picking pieces that are still lightweight and hot weather approved. For more ideas into dressing as the seasons change, explore my latest selections.

This Fair Isle jacquard knit cardigan with metallic threading is a perfect layering piece to add to your fall rotation. Style it with high-waisted pants and a suede bag for a cozy, chic look that easily transitions from day to night.

If you’re in the market for a new phone case, I have a good source for you from Amazon. I just got a new iphone 15 Pro Max and gave Mark my 11 Pro Max since his phone was not great, so I had to get a new phone case for it. I found this Burga phone case on Amazon for a decent price and they have great reviews and the price is right too. In case you’re in the market. This one covers iphone 12, 13, 14 and 15. I almost got the spotted one, but decided on marble.

I’m sure I’ll have plenty to share when I get back, it’s a fun group of ladies.

Yet another sign, if one were needed, that luxury is moving ever closer to the world of art and culture. The Mazarine group, a major player in the organisation of events and fashion shows for luxury and fashion brands through its structures Mazarine Events and La Mode en Images (the group also owns Numéro magazine), has announced that it is to take on the Arter agency.

“The integration of Arter will enable us to offer a complete and unique range of services in the events sector, covering luxury, fashion, art and culture,” explains Paul-Emmanuel Reiffers, Mazarine’s founder and chairman, who announced his desire for external growth when he took over the group and the arrival of new partners in the capital at the beginning of 2023. This acquisition fits in perfectly with our strategy of creating value around unique expertise and international development. We have come together around our passion for art, creation and know-how, and the bond of trust that unites us with our customers for each new project.”

The Paris-based company Arter, founded twenty years ago by Renaud Sabari, is recognised at European level for producing artistic and cultural events, all with a responsible approach, having been certified B Corp last year. Its team of around twenty people is involved in the creation and implementation of projects such as the French pavilion at the Venice Biennale and the Centre Pompidou project in Brussels.

But if the group, founded by Paul-Emmanuel Reiffers in 1993, decided to acquire Arter and add its talents to its teams, it was above all because of the company’s expertise and its connections with luxury houses. In recent years, Arter has been involved in the international tour of the exhibition Betty Catroux, Féminin singulier, with the Musée Yves Saint Laurent and the House of Saint Laurent, as well as the seven opuses of Culture Chanel. The agency has also been responsible for the coordination and technical implementation of exhibitions at the Fondation Louis Vuitton since it opened, and is also responsible for the cultural production of the Galerie du 19M, according to a press release. Mazarine and Arter have already collaborated on several events linking luxury and art.

At a time when the sector is undergoing a process of concentration, this merger gives Mazarine access to the expertise of Arter’s teams as well as its credibility with cultural institutions and artists. Pierre-Emmanuel Reiffers points out that founder Renaud Sabari will remain a minority shareholder and at the helm of the company. These are key assets in a sector where large-scale projects are multiplying. The group is now structured into three divisions with Mazarine Events.

To underpin this synergy, the group says that Arter will produce the Reiffers Art Initiatives exhibition Who is afraid of red blue and yellow? at the next edition of Art Basel Paris. But the stated ambition is to be able to develop the range of services offered by Renaud Sabari’s teams internationally. The group has sites in around ten countries, not only in Europe but also in the United States, China and the Middle East. For the 2024 financial year, the group is forecasting sales of around €250 million, of which Arter will contribute around €20 million.

Orion Carloto—writer, photographer, content creator, and front-row fixture—is no stranger to the buzz of fashion week. Case in point: her trip to New York fashion week for the spring/summer 2025 shows. In town to kick off fashion month for the latest collections, Carloto arrived with a packed schedule and a lineup of street style-worthy looks.

To punctuate her fashion-filled week, Carloto attended the Tommy Hilfiger show. Attendees met on Pier 17 along the South Street Seaport before boarding a Staten Island Ferry that pulled away from dock moments before the runway show began aboard. The collection was classic Tommy, which included Americana pieces such as navy blazers, embroidered cardigans, and baseball hats. Carloto—opting for a trench coat styled as a dress for her show look—was on point with her outfit for the show, which took inspiration from the styles codes of the fashion house.

Ahead, Carloto takes us inside her night attending the Tommy Hilfiger runway show, including what’s in her bag, her favorite looks from the show, and Anna Wintour having the time of her life at the surprise Wu Tang performance that closed the show.

Tell us about the look you selected for the Tommy Hilfiger show and how you styled it.

I went with a trench coat that I styled as a dress. Honestly, I had American Psycho in mind. Patricia Bateman with a cinched-in waist.

What stands out to you about Tommy Hilfiger’s approach to design?

Classic looks will always remain top tier, but how they manage to mold to modern times will always amaze me!
