Haute & Cool: A Touch of Spice

As the temperature drops, we tend to cozy up to a palette of deeper, darker hues. This year, let’s embrace a wardrobe of rich, exotic color. After all, isn’t it time to heat up your cold-weather look? For a fresh take on fall, just add a touch of spice.

Blend zesty tones of ginger, saffron and curry. Layer in notes of paprika, cayenne and cinnamon. Pair them all back to your wintry neutrals of nutmeg, cocoa and sage.

These colors are so versatile, they can be worn uniformly or mixed together. Yet they are striking enough to elevate any carefully curated closet. So let’s get cooking — before the chill sets in.
