Stash your ratty old pashmina in favor of a wrapper with a little more edge. and wear cool skull-print scarves that draw attention to their boo-tiful faces (sorry, we couldn’t resist!).

BAT-PRINT TOPS

Literal animal prints are everywhere this fall, but rocking a kitten or puppy on your shirt might make you look like a grade-schooler. A comfy, fitted top emblazoned with a funky bat (like Rachel Bilson’s tee or Alexa Chung’s Topshop sweater) is a decidedly more grown-up way to interpret the trend.

Yes, we are endorsing this tricky color combo post-Halloween, but tread carefully. Olivia Wilde’s orange dress pops with the glam black accents (plus the yellow clutch breaks up the look), and Amy Poehler gets points for letting her eye-catching orange shoes take the spotlight against her basic black outfit.

Look scary-hot this week (and throughout the fall and winter) in a skintight pair of bright red skinnies. Kylie Jenner (in Parker) uses simple black accessories to make this look totally accessible, though bolder girls could make like Rosie Huntington-Whiteley (in J Brand) and add a graphic top.
