Chi Diem Chau — Mon, 14 May 2012 12:11:48 PDT

Club Monaco just released its Fall lookbook filled with two-toned tweed blazers, printed trousers, and plenty of pretty blouses to take you into the chillier months ahead. The collection, inspired by Linda McCartney’s Life in Photographs, the leading male characters in the Silent Generation, and block-print patterns from Jewish-French artist Sonia Delaunay, focused on tailored pieces with a casual twist via pajama-like cropped suit sets, multicolored silk striped dresses, and graphic-printed separates tempered with chic blazers and tweed jackets. Read below for our favorite looks, then click the slideshow to see Club Monaco's complete Fall collection.

This green silk maxi dress is perfect for pairing with ankle boots in the warmer months, then layered with a cozy turtleneck and blazer when it gets colder outside.
We love the idea of styling louche printed trousers with a streamlined blouse and sleek jewels for a day at the office.
Tweed never looked so good thanks to this sleek blazer rendition, especially when paired with a simple pencil skirt and blouse.

Warm weather might be a few months away, but that's not stopping us from starting a list of must haves from Club Monaco's newly released early Summer lookbook. Modeled by Eniko Mihalik and Valerija Kelava, the line draws influence from one of our favorite Spring activities – music festivals.
