So as you keep your eye on fall style, practice wearing the trending combo now. The key? Mix edgy and feminine elements, like leather and lace. Here are the five pieces you need to nail the look.

The printed dress: “Pretty meets polished with this black-and-white midi. I love how the lace tie and puffed cap sleeves soften the bold colorblocking.”

The ruffled top: “A Victorian take on the white blouse, this top adds a bit of romance to any outfit. The high collar is back for another season, so invest in this staple now.”

The statement bag: “No wonder this mini box bag gets both its name and timeless style from Grace Kelly. I love how it’s reimagined in metallic gold leather – a total outfit maker.”

The chunky mules: “You can’t go wrong with contemporary block heels and crossover straps. They look equally chic paired with rolled jeans or an edgy skirt.”
