WINE-HUED: BURGUNDY SWEATER AND LACE SKIRT

The Steele Maiden: Office holiday style in wine-hued separates - lace midi skirt, burgundy sweater and suede pumps

I know, I know – you’re still in full out pumpkin picking mode. But to me, the holiday season starts post-Halloween next week. One of the things I’m trying my best to do is really savor each season instead of getting so caught up in my hectic work/blog/life’s schedule that they just pass me right by. And so this year, I’m planning on sharing a slew of fun new holiday content in plenty of time for you to see it, shop it or share it. No last minute scramble for what to wear to that office party or get your dad for Christmas. With that in mind, I’m easing into holiday style for this head to toe wine-hued look.

BEST OF: VELVET FAVORITES FOR FALL

The Steele Maiden: Trend for Fall - Velvet clothing, shoes and home decor

Of all the trends this fall – or dare I say it.. holiday season – the one I may be most excited about is velvet. In rich jewel tones on everything from sumptuous side chairs to luxe sneakers to sharp blazers, velvet is popping up everywhere. And I admittedly want to add touches of it everywhere. As George Costanza (of Seinfeld fame) once said ‘I would drape myself in velvet if it were socially acceptable’. This season, it just may be. Here – a few of my very favorite options.

WARWICK, NEW YORK: BOYFRIEND JEANS AND ANKLE BOOTS

The Steele Maiden: Fall foliage wearing cable knit turtleneck, boyfriend jeans and ankle boots

On Sunday, Adam and I took advantage of a rare day without plans and took a drive out of the city. We ended up in the town of Warwick, New York after stopping at a nearby pumpkin patch/apple orchard – because apple cider donuts.. obviously. It feels like the trees have barely changed here in the city, so it was fun to see the all out explosion of color happening just an hour north of us. I picked up these boyfriend jeans (or ‘Mom jeans’  as Adam lovingly calls them..) earlier in the weekend and paired them with these slip-on ankle boots and cable knit turtleneck sweater that I got for our trip to Maine.

FALL TRENDS: OFF THE SHOULDER SWEATER

Fall Trends - Off the Shoulder Bell Sleeve Sweater

If you were following along this summer, than you know that I was wayyy on board with the off the shoulder trend. And honestly, felt a little sad about the thought of putting those tops and dresses away until next spring. Luckily for me, when fall trends started to surface I spotted the newest rendition – the off the shoulder sweater – and was relieved to find I could carry this style right into fall.

FALL ROMANCE WITH RALPH LAUREN FRAGRANCE

The Steele Maiden: Romantic Fall style with Anthropologie and Ralph Lauren Fragrance

Of all the places that Adam and I go to escape on the weekends, our neighboring hometowns in the PA countryside is still one of our favorites. It’s the place where we first met and when the air turns crisp, the leaves start to change and the cornfields are full.. there’s just alway something that feels special about coming back here. While I’m usually a jeans and t-shirt girl back home, I was inspired by the classic scent of Ralph Lauren Romance to get a little dressed up, spread out some cozy blankets and take a quiet moment for just the two of us after a busy week in the city.
