A Salute to Fall

While reviewing the Fall/Winter 09 collection, I stumbled across one of my most favorite of Moschino looks . There were only a few items adorning the model, but I instantly loved what she represented. Similar to what I have replicated, this outfit is about a girl who is not ready to let go of the summer days, acquiescing nontheless to the coming fall with style. The heavier military jacket perfectly balances the light baby doll dress, (or pleated mini skirt in the Moschino case) that has yet to prove its irrelevance despite the coming cold. Finally, to complete the feminine military look, I wear a pair of leather studded ankle boots. This post salutes the fall because it allows die-hard summer fans to incorporate past season favorites with pieces you would rather wear in lower temperatures.
