How to Dress for Your Proportions This Fall: Skirts, Layers, and Loafers

Fall is officially here (even in LA), and this month's solo episode is all about getting dressed for it. I'm answering your questions on everything from figuring out your proportions to finding the right skirt for your body, plus how I stay warm without feeling like a marshmallow. We start with proportions: the simple at-home test I use to understand my torso, why getting your measurements taken will change your life, and why I think we should reframe proportions as balance. From there, we get into my undying love for the skirt, inspired by Mrs. Prada's all-skirt collection at Milan Fashion Week, and how to find the one that works for you. I also share my smartest layering tricks for fall and winter, my go-to loafers and boots, why I've been ignoring trends and paying attention to styling instead, and the outfit formulas I lean on for a fall or winter cocktail party.
