Major Fall Buys

Victorian

"Victorian has the expectation of feeling very formal, but this season's pieces it is almost the opposite. I love a brocade bustier over a white T-shirt or a velvet choker for day." —Elizabeth Leventhal, GMM, Boutique at Moda Operandi

Mules

"Simple and chic. A mule is great to debut now with a slip dress and can easily transition into fall." —Chloe Sippe, GMM, Non-Apparel at Moda Operandi

Velvet

"Fall is very much about texture for me. Velvet was a staple on the fall runways and I am absolutely hooked, take it at your leisure, there are options from a loafer to a cocktail dress for the evening." —Elizabeth Leventhal

Top-Handle Bags

"A top-handle bag used to feel very formal to me, but this season there are lots of options with a more modern take on the classic." —Chloe Sippe

Daytime Hero Jewelry

"A statement pair of earrings or a choker is an easy way to make major impact with very little effort." —Chloe Sippe
