Red has an older and more mature sister, and we’re calling her burgundy. While everyone was obsessed with bright tones of red last fall, they’ll be steering themselves toward bold tones of burgundy this year. With designers like Khaite and Saint Laurent backing this, you really can’t go wrong.

For kids, fall means back to school, and adults take on the same vibe in their clothing, marking it a season of exquisite tailoring. No wonder taupe suits are making their mark along with camel everything.

Similar to the change we’ve seen in the red range, we’re seeing a shift in pink. Last year, everyone was in their Barbie era wearing bright fuchsia and Y2K pink, but this year, look for cool-toned styles. It’s the subtle blush effect that’s incredibly flirtatious.

Ivory is getting darker and darker, and I’m starting to notice that a more eggshell-esque effect is taking over. The Row and Altuzarra were fans of this shade, as I think nothing exclaims elevated more than a neutral that’s this strong.

I feel like everyone is ordering a dirty martini at the bar lately, and it seems like the fashion crowd will be ordering it in their seasonal Net-a-Porter hauls as well. A dark and stormy green makes a look feel elevated and instantly takes your personal style to the next level.

Sierra Mayhew was always destined to work in fashion, but she didn't know it at first. Growing up with no choice but to wear a rotation of school uniforms and activewear, her love for fashion really blossomed when she moved away for college and was able to finally define her very own personal style. Shortly thereafter, she interned at Elle magazine and instantly knew that editorial was for her. After graduating from the University of Notre Dame, she worked for ShopBazaar, contributing regularly to Bazaar.com, and finally made her way to Who What Wear, where she is an associate editor. When she’s not working, you can catch her always trying to catch a flight, rollerblading through New York City traffic, or exploring the latest luxury vintage boutique.
