Next Level: Laid-Back Lace
NEWSFLASH: Lace doesn’t have to be all prissy. Srsly! Here, four takes that are fly with ratty jeans and bedhead. —erica
LEVEL I: Yarnz delivers a lace-print scarf—and, adding in a few other motifs, doesn’t even make you fully commit.
LEVEL II: This Ella Moss sweatshirt belongs at a sunny cafe table, not at the gym.
LEVEL III: 3.1 Phillip Lim goes pseudo-stripy in a really killer way. And see what’s happening with the white pants? A good pairing call.
LEVEL IV: It doesn’t get more slouchy-cool than this Raquel Allegra jacket. Take the plunge.

Next Level: Faux Fur Jackets
Both Claire and I have been working a fake fur this season, and we highly recommend it. Tossing one on makes any outfit look instantly more glam, and all that synthetic material is mighty warm. Here are four we can get behind should you decide to try for yourself. —erica
LEVEL I: The color blocking and black suede sleeves make this Gryphon invention nice ‘n easy. Pull it on when you’d normally do a basic leather jacket.
LEVEL II: With its spotted pattern, this Msgm style is just a teens more challenging, but the ultra-classic cut—bracelet sleeves!—will keep you in it for years and years.
LEVEL III: Suno is all about the pattern mixing, but I love the idea of this sucker with dark jeans and an oxford, too.
LEVEL IV: Penny Lane would heart this Ella Moss coat, but don’t let that dissuade you. Picture it with a long-sleeve neutral maxi dress. SOLD.
