***Take A Trip Back in Time***

In the 1800's a society of men called Dandies grew to be the majority. They were concerned by elegance in manner, and put great emphasis on dress. Their prized wardrobe elements were tailored coats, dramatic ruffles and the lushest of materials.



As we know the male-inspired tailored trend has exploded in women's fashion! Jupe has taken it a step further by adding timeless elegance and character. Take a step back in time with us:

**WRAPPED UP TIGHT W/ STYLE**

This fall's fashions have created an exhilarating atomosphere for fashion lovers. With tons of chances to change your style. Whether you've chosen to try the 1920's lingerie look, the rocker glam or ethno-chic, there is a way to wrap up those legs with warmth and style!






1920's Lingerie Look
The twenties exude boyish sex appeal with shapeless frocks and small berets and hats. To tryout this trend pair your best 20's-inspired frock with a pair of legwarmers atop your finest mary janes.




Rocker Glam
Get this hott look by sexying-up your 80's guy-inspired, studded leather jacket with sheer black tights. If you think you can be more rock-adventerous try a pair of this seasons new panel tights. Jean Paul Gaultier had them scampering all
over the runway.






Ethno-Chic
A little more earthy? Is your sex appeal your down to earth personality?Pair that head scarf and chunky ethnic sweater with textured tights; whether scrunched up or cable knit.

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!
