A few ideas on how to wear some of the items
Thanks to polyvore I put different looks for you. Enjoy!
Maxi skirts can simply be transformed with the right accessories such as animal print scarf and hat!


For a day look: Army-style cotton parka, simple pair of jeans, boots, add colour like by using a scarf as an accessory.

Mix and match: summer cocktail dress with a warm trench coat, gloves and stocking to keep those legs warm for a night out.

At least have a pair: bootleg pants, high-waisted pants etc and you don’t have to be restricted to black there’s plenty of rich colours to choose from.



Lastly, fur jacket can change any simple outfit and if you can rock it, why not!
