Classic Combinations

Chadwicks of Boston Fall 2013 collection features career and casual favorites geared to today's busy women. Consider the Chadwicks blazer a signature of the brand for the past 30 years. The jacket looks fresh in a stylish black and white check, solid black or beautiful bright colors such as lapis, berry and crimson red. Best of all: the wool blazer retails for only $59.99! Shapely silhouettes flatter a variety of figures; the fit and flare dress in red is one of the best. And what would women ever do without the "go to" pencil skirt? Pair a houndstooth patterned skirt with classic twin set sweaters for a totally chic ensemble. Thankfully, some things never go out of style.

The boyfriend cardigan perfect when paired with a tailored skirt, slim pants or skinny jeans is available in 13 colors, from basic neutrals to brilliantly colored hues. The options are virtually unlimited. Denim jeans run the gamut from classic bootcut to straight legged styles; colored denim never looked so bright. The right fit is key.

Once again, shoes are the mainstay accessory for fall/winter. Supple high quality leather riding boots, in particular, pair beautifully with dresses, jeans, skirts and leggings. They are the quintessential fashion accessory. Colorful pumps such as round toe or wedge styles are one the easiest ways to pull together an outfit. And since these shoes are priced under $50, why not indulge in a few? One pair, it seems, is never enough.
