Flying Colors


WINTER BLUES

A head-to-toe look in one standout hue is not only effortlessly polished, but also has a slimming and elongating effect. This lapis wrap star gives whatever lies beneath—prints or solids of any shade—a smart upgrade. Belted coat, blouse, and skirt, Vince, $795, $345, and $425. Knee-high boots, Nine West, $189. Hat, Lack of Color. Dog coat, Oliver Thomas.

CARDINAL RULES

A shawl collar may be traditional, but a dynamic shade makes this sophisticated topper modern and eye-catching—especially when coupled with suede booties in a slightly deeper crimson. Belted coat, Mackage, $750. Shirt and pants, Vince, $275 and $325. Booties, Marc Fisher, $119. Hatbox and suitcases, Steamline Luggage.
