There's a fresh look for every personality and budget. Available for interviews, Deputy Editor of PEOPLE StyleWatch, Joyce Chang, can share the guide to the 10 fall must-haves. For colors, look for rich tones in deep saturated shades - from burgundy to purple to forest green.
Show off your curves in feminine shapes - it's all about the waist. And in terms of accessories, refined bags with structured top-handle styles are updated in a range of textures with luxurious-looking closures and other polished details. While flirty details like bows, rosettes and tassels add charm to pointy or round-toe ladylike pumps. She'll also be able to answer any questions leading up to Fashion Week 2010.
