We are finally into real Fall weather. Time to put away the flimsy outfits and pull out the woollens. By no means does this mean we turn gray and boring.
Occasionally, it is fun to be just on this side of quirky.

Let's look at how designers approach the more youthful, fashionably quirky crowd. Sometimes it means a separate line. Two playful lines are Miu Miu (by Miucca Prada) and Marc by Marc Jacobs. Here are just some of their items for Fall, though I like a lot of their pieces from past seasons too.

The silhouettes are still classic. However, the splashes of color, texture, and a big ruffle or bow here and there, add an element of fun surprise! Also note the clunkier shoe -- rather than a dainty heel -- to add a quirky vibe. Even the satchel handbags or the oversized hat play with the whole look's proportions.
So take your classic dresses for a spin to the less serious side with unexpected accessories.
