What caught my eye: This Korean star put her own spin on fall trendy pieces.

Why I love it:

  • Jacquard/brocade pieces, baroque accessories are so hot this season. They are beautiful and lust worthy, but can also make us look more mature. By choosing flirty mini shape (instead of pencil skirt), and pairing it with casual laid-back knit pullover, sleek black pumps, this Korean star made jacquard age-appropriate, cute yet chic.
  • When mixing patterns together, keep them in the same color family (like her grey striped sweater and jacquard skirt).
  • Leopard is truly a timeless staple and even seasonless this year. In spring/summer, we paired it with nautical stripes, digital floral or ikat print. When fall comes, team it with jacquard and brocade pieces: the ornate fabrics need some wildness for an unexpected twist.
  • Keep shoes and tights in the same color to maximizely elongate our legs.

I'm Helen. In the huge fashion world, what attracts me the most is the way different people accessorize themselves. Our daily outfit choices are not just about the pieces we pick, they relate to something lurking deeply within our hearts: how we feel about ourselves, how we express ourselves to the rest of the world, what kind of people do we want to be and what kind of life do we want to live. Following my passion for fashion, I immerse myself in this bizarre world and try my best to share what I learned with you!
