There was a thunderously positive response to the post I did about Michael Kors' Fall 2008 show last week, which was gratifying (you all have such good taste!) and at the same time a little frustrating -- these clothes won't be in stores for months & months, and, being Michael Kors, they won't be exactly budget-friendly. So I did some surfing and after an exhaustive search (well, I was exhausted), here are some things I came up with (click photos for links).
Trim wool coats to throw casually over your shoulders, hopefully placed there by a man wearing a beautifully-tailored suit.
Under the coat -- shimmery blouses and trim skirts
Such a beautiful neckline.
Boxy cropped jackets to balance out your pencil skirts:
Curvy dresses...
A good basic sheath dress is something worth spending a little money on, because you'll have it forever and it can be dressed up or down as the occasion calls for.
Also pretty from the back!
Above three are great shapes at fantastic prices.
More beautiful fabric, and a more forgiving skirt shape that still reads as nice and hourglass-y.
And this doesn't even dip into the accessories -- the perfect little reptile pumps and the beautiful thin belts and lovely ladylike framed handbags -- but I hope it's enough to inspire you and get you started.
So, go! Shop!

Gah! Gorgeous Alberta Ferretti blouse and they don't have it in my size.
Great choices!! I'm eyeing two of those jackets...
I love the skirts and the black sheath dress--all will go so well with the coat.
These are stunning, Aim! You've done it again! I want that lovely viktor & rolf dress. And about twelve other things off this post.
