Where we’re seeing it: We saw this in Marc by Marc Jacobs’ and Chanel’s fall 2014 runway shows, but those are only two of the many. Supermodel Karlie Kloss shared a picture of her working out in an orange and purple pair of Nikes on her Instagram. We also saw this in some of the menswear shows, particularly Dolce & Gabbana.
Why we like it: You should take any opportunity you have to wear shoes this comfortable. They’ll take you through fall until the snow falls, which is a major plus. Try to wear them with shorts for now or leggings later, but whatever you wear them with, it has to be relatively solid as opposed to a print. Guys, you can rock this look too. It’s an easy way to elevate the individuality of your outfit. Just throw on a pair of these with your favorite jeans, and you’re good to go.
Why she likes it: “They’re different, and I’ve yet to see anybody else wear them.”
Where you can get the look: You can get similar pairs

Where we’re seeing it: We saw the robe coat featured in the Altuzarra fall show, and green is the color of the season. Emerald was everywhere on runways — including Derek Lam — but you can make this work with any shade of green.
Why we like it: This coat has a lot of things going for it. It’s a robe coat. It’s green, and it could be categorized as mod style. These are all big trends we saw on the runways for fall. The length is great because you can wear it throughout the year if you layer it well, and if you’re not having the best day wardrobe-wise, this is a good cover-up.
Why she likes it: “I really like green, and (Zara) has a section called Olive Garden, and it’s all green colors. Personally, I prefer oversized coats so I always prefer long trench coats.”
Where you can get one: You can try Macy’s or Lord and Taylor at Destiny USA for coats of similar lengths.

Where we’re seeing it: Supermodel and fashion icon Cara Delevingne is wearing a lot of these small trendy backpacks right now, proving they aren’t just for kids going to school. We saw a leather version in Rag and Bone’s fall 2014 show and a plaid version at Tommy Hilfiger’s show. The days of the tote bag may be on the way out.
Why we like it: It’s an alternative to the typical North Face or Longchamp bag. Try to find one that has unique detailing, such as this one with studs, or maybe a print, like floral. Go for something petite that has a cool shape or color. It’ll save your back and look cute in the process.
Why she likes it: “It’s just a little more individualized.”
Where you can get one: You can find studded leather bags like this at Buckle in Destiny USA.
