There's nothing quite as satisfying as pulling on a boyfriend sweater (whether it's actually your boyfriend's or an oversize treasure you've somehow inherited over the course of your lifetime) on a cold autumnal morning. As the temperature dips, we're looking for more comfy and cozy pieces to base our looks around. Instead of scouring the usual virtual racks, we headed over to the men's department and found some irresistible pieces we'd like to add to our Fall basics lineup: a cozy grandpa cardigan sweater, printed puffer vest, and camouflage tee. Just how do we plan on wearing these borrowed-from-the-boys pieces? It's all about adding an unexpected pop of masculinity to your regular feminine looks, and we're showing you just how to do it.

A great outfit deserves acknowledgement — and in this case, some copycat behavior, too. After all, it is the highest form of flattery. Let's see, it's got the perfect mix of Fall elements, all without ever going overboard. And, like our street-style subject, we pretty much live in our blouse-and-jeans combos come cold weather. Thus, it's all about honing in on those key punch-up pieces to give an ensemble its flair. Case in point: her velvet burgundy-hued blazer not only provides a luxe textural finish, it just happens to showcase this season's most wanted shade of red. Along with her staple add-ons (read: aviator sunglasses, a slouchy black scarf, and a classic black tote), she tied the look together with a cool, studded flat twist. Subtle at first glance, but certainly dynamic upon closer review — we'll never say "no" to a look with classic appeal, seasonal relativity, and a really amazing blazer to boot. Click on to shop her outfit now, with every piece under $120.

Sweater vests were once reserved for dads, stodgy prepsters, and Doug Funnie, but this season, they've taken on a whole new meaning. We're especially smitten with the recent crop of sleek, sophisticated sweater vests that are more modern hipster than Ivy League princess — brands like Theory, J.Crew, and Joseph are offering up vibrant, cozy pieces that perfectly fuse the classic silhouette with fresh fabrics and patterns. Of course, it's all about the styling with these: we love the look of a crisp white button-down topped with a colorful sweater vest, but it's also quite cool to mix it up by layering one with a fitted long-sleeved tee, and cinching it at the waist with a leopard-print belt. No matter how you wear it, the sweater vest is shaping up to be one of the coolest, easiest ways to show your preppy side without going too Blair Waldorf. We've rounded up eight pieces that will go with everything from boyfriend jeans to leather skirts — click through to shop them all now.

The Neiman Marcus Christmas book was just released, and this year's assortment of fantasy gifts is sure to please every ridiculously expensive (and kind of amazing) whimsy. So just what does the retailer have in store for its customers this year? Think custom designer hen houses (yes, the ones that lay eggs), the ultimate tailgate trailer complete with its own flat-screen TV and year's worth of bourbon, and the most intricate watches you've ever laid eyes on from Van Cleef & Arpels. Ready to take a ride on the magic carpet? Click on to see the most over-the-top gifts from Neiman's Christmas catalog and let the daydreaming begin!

The arrival of Fall, and chillier weather, brings with it the inevitable need to cover up. This season, take a cue from this celebrity style set and let your legs do the talking with the help of a pair of printed pants. For a more casual look, opt for a more relaxed silhouette à la Sienna Miller or take the fitted route in skinny, formfitting shapes like the ones seen on Poppy Delevingne and Miranda Kerr. Keep clicking to see more celebrities showing off their printed pants, and then shop our editor-approved picks.

After the minimalism we saw designers exploring last week in Paris, it seems only fitting that this week's new arrivals should embody a similar modernist vibe. Colorblocked dresses, structured jackets, and tech-tastic shoes; they're all looking mighty fresh right now. We've handpicked the best of them here.

Summer days are gone, giving way to Fall staples — and with that a new crop of dresses to stock our closets. We're looking to the season's moodier palette, heavier textures, and, of course, the biggest trends for the new season. With a sophisticated set of architectural wrap dresses from Phillip Lim and Proenza Schouler (designed to flatter our figures), sharp collared sheaths and shifts via Derek Lam, not to mention slick leather versions, and a new set of opulent, embellished, and brocade confections (that we think will make the perfect holiday party dresses) — there's literally a silhouette and style to fit every girl (and her budget). Click on; this is our ultimate Fall dress guide.
