"How is it that some girls can make the whole &amp;quot;layering&amp;quot; thing look so effortless? The &amp;quot;Phillip Lim girl&amp;quot;, as I call her, seems to always look cool no matter what color combination or hem length she is sporting. The first look from his fall collection is a crash course in proportional layering and combines multiple major fall trends. Allow me break it down: 1. First and foremost, THAT COAT! Pastel statement coats were on multiple runways this fall and a great investment for the upcoming chilly months. (The Farmers&amp;#x27; Almanac says this winter&amp;#x27;s going to be a doozy!) 2. The cropped crewneck. This hits-above-the-hip cashmere is perfect for showing off the men&amp;#x27;s dress shirt underneath. While the lower hem is the most important aspect here, feel free to switch it up with a V-neck or cardigan, which can help keep your silhouette looking slim under all these layers. 3. The men&amp;#x27;s dress shirt. There&amp;#x27;s something about a crisp collar that really pulls together a look. It can make this miniskirt feel finished and office-appropriate. A key piece that you can find at any price point! 4. A leather miniskirt. Leather is so huge right now, and its so exciting to see designers offer it in shapes other than the traditional moto jacket. I love the idea of a leather skirt with tights and a sweater, which really takes away its severity, making it ready for work or play. 5. A thigh-high boot. While maybe not for everyone, I am a firm believer that thigh-high boots be worn with skirts and ONLY skirts. This elongates the leg and hits right at the narrowest part of your thigh, just above the knee while keeping your derriere curves in proportion with your leg length. The space between the skirt hem and the boot is perfect here, but try it with opaque tights for a more conservative look. 6. Finally, who can ignore the beauty element here? A perfectly tousled low ponytail just finishes off the effortlessness of her layered look. I recommend blowing your hair out and then using salt spray for a clean and textured feel.
