FAQ FALL CLASSY STYLE
If you are feeling overwhelmed by choice and deliberating which direction to turn when you want to impress, go through FAQ – it will help, for sure.
Not really. Classy fall outfits refer to the old money style, while elegant fall outfits can be classy or fashion forward.
No! Fall classy is not the same as fancy fall style. Classy style is refined and simple, while fancy is cute and kitschy.
Rarely. At least not in Europe. Excluding the United Kingdom, of course. UK old money can often be everything but graceful.
You can, but why would you want to pretend? You will only fool yourself.
Elegance never goes out of style.
Yes. But you need to distinguish between the old money as a fashion trend of 2024 and the old money as what the old money actually wears. In reality, the old money doesn’t dress like from the Ralph Lauren catalogue. All the contrary, the old money as a fashion trend of 2024 is inspired by Ralph Lauren, whereas the old money wears whatever they have in their capsule wardrobe. POV Quality clothes and shoes that could resist the edge of time but are nonetheless contemporary.
If you want to build a classy fall capsule wardrobe to look more elegant, you might want to get a camel Burberry trench coat, a quilted jacket, a striped shirt, white ruffled blouse, a pretty cardigan sweater, black skinny wool pants, wool wide-leg pants, black jeans, riding boots, pretty flats, ballet pumps, mid heel pumps, simple black pumps, a tweed jacket, tailored shorts, tweed shorts, midi pleated skirt, a camel cable knit sweater, a top handle bag, and a little black dress.

A little black dress, and a dress with a lapel collar and pleats that elegance and sophistication to your outfits.
Bounclé jackets and bounclé skirts Blair wore are not old money. Little less classy. Blair’s style is kitschy and tacky. Do yourself a favour and wear something less tacky instead.
POV I am guilty of having fun with tweed sets as well. But you can break the rules if you don’t have to pretend to be old money or sophisticated. Also, I wear tweed instead of bounclé.
