Q: I am forever aboard the “slouch lover” train. I love slouchy bags, sweaters, sweatpants and jeans. How do I wear that stuff and not look schlumpy?
You want to keep some element that shows your body and still looks sexy. If you’re wearing slouchy trousers or jeans, keep whatever is on top more fitted: a tee, button-down top or sweater. Likewise, if your top is slouchy, keep the bottom slim. You can’t wear an oversize sweater, oversize jeans and an oversize bag—that’s too much.

Q: Are leggings still in style? Any tips on how to make a basic pair sophisticated?
Not only are they in style, but at the fall shows, I think 90 percent of the designers sent them down the runway. One thing I’d stay away from is wearing a short fitted top with leggings. You should opt for something that at least covers your bum. Try layering a long knit tee under a baggier, menswear-style jacket.

Q: I love ruffles. How can I wear them without looking like a little girl?
If you follow the right rules, ruffles can be classic French chic—and not at all “little girl” (or pirate!). Avoid an explosion of them and keep them to your collar, cuff or lapel. I’d pair a ruffled shirt with jeans and a fitted jacket. See—cute!

Q: What’s a fall date outfit that’s cozy but still fun and sexy?
Start with your cutest summer dress. Put a T-shirt under or a cardigan over it, then drape on a huge, fantastic scarf. The idea is that you can wrap the scarf a million different ways or leave it hanging down like a shawl. I love ones in a print or some sort of color. Finally, add high wedge boots and a cute hat.
