Loving cropped sleeve jackets like these, but worried about practicality? Try wearing a chunky, long sleeve sweater underneath in a contrasting color. Looking for a something more sophisticated? Try adding elbow length knit gloves. They'll keep you warm and have an elegant vibe without being too dressy.

Trend We Love: High Waisted Skirts

One of our favorite trends right now is high waisted skirts. A high waisted skirt is a great piece to have in your closet. They can be dressed up or down; worn flirty and feminine or tough and serious. Here are 3 of our favorite ones at Jupe right now.

This polka-dot skirt by BB Dakota is a great piece for work. It looks best on straighter figures due to the slim cut. The included belt helps to create shape at the waist. The simple black and white pattern and tailored look of this piece can easily be styled in traditional or more fun way. Add a black or white turtleneck (below: by LA Made) for a classic look. In the mood for something a little flashier? Try a bright red or hot pink crew neck t-shirt.

This skirt by BB Dakota is more voluminous and boisterous. The rich fuchsia color and silky fabric make this piece great for partying. Fun and flirty, this skirt can be work as shown in the photo below with a simple white tank and a pair of pumps or with a black turtleneck, tights, and pumps for a more formal look. This is a great skirt to wear with chunky, bold jewelry.

This brocade tulip skirt by BB Dakota has a slightly more romantic feel. The soft color and opulent fabric are awesome for the holiday season. Paired with a softer top as pictured below (by Aryn K), this skirt is very feminine and formal. Paired with a black crew neck T and black tights it's reminiscent of ballerinas. And paired with a white tank and pumps it's downright kitschy.

Animal Instincts

It's never wrong to throw on that LBD (Little Black Dress), black tights, and a chunky black sweater, right? With this being the go-to outfit for me (and many others) accessories are key. This season some of my favorite ways to accessorize have been animal inspired. From the literal pieces to the more tempered, these styles are all great to add some spice to your favorite basics. Check out these animal-inspired pieces that Jupe Boutique is offering right now.

Who doesn't love a good bangle? Paired with simpler gold pieces, these tiger inspired bracelets are ultra wearable.

Peasant Jewelry offers a great variety of rustic necklaces and bracelets that are versatile and easy to wear. These pieces feature cute animal charms in a tough and funky way.


This chunky necklace feels a little "Flintstones," but is a chic animal-inspired addition many ensembles.



This gray, black, and brown clutch in alligator is easy to wear with most fall colors. Why use your simple black bag when you can add some drama with something like this?


And if your feeling saucy, why not substitute your plain dress for something more exciting like this leopard print number by 213 Industry. Meow!

Boots!

It's time to break out the boots. Here are 4 great ways to wear them.

• Oxford style booties are great for fall, but tend to make the legs look shorter because they stop at the ankle. Pairing this style with dark tights will help to avoid this problem by creating a continuous line. Dark colors tend to slim the leg as well.

• Pair flat, slouchy boots with a short, cotton dress. It's cute, casual, and appropriate for Fall. Wear it day or night for an chic look.

• Tuck your jeans into your boots. This look is best with snug-fitting skinny jeans (even if you only own a pair for this purpose). If you are on the curvier side, try wearing high heel slouchy boots. The extra bulk of the boot will help to balance your proportions and the heels will help to lengthen your legs.

• Try wearing knee socks with tall boots. This look can be done over tights or leggings with dresses or skirts. Make sure that the socks have a cool pattern: argyle, plaid, really anything goes. And make sure to keep the boot simple to let the socks shine! This is a definitely a different look, and is a great way to add some flavor to an otherwise ordinary outfit.

Most importantly, however you decide to rock your boots, do it with confidence!
