This fall's styles have already been determined by the fashion powers that be, and we are starting to see them trickle into Denver. Two major ones are the "cage heels," with serious height and cutouts, and comfy cardigan sweaters either wrapped or worn loose over a fitted top. Of course sunglasses are always necessary, especially in 300-sunny-days-a-year Denver. This fall is pointing to large tortoise shells. Not Olsen-twin large, stay far far away from that. Colfax ladies represent these looks effortlessly.

I love how she paired these Gucci cages from Neiman Marcus with cutoffs and a huge enveloping scarf. For a more affordable option, check out these patent-trim leather "Edie" heels by Klub Nico. Blunt bangs over the hottest shades....of course the middle finger is always the best accessory. Find glasses like Kim's at Nordstrom, these ones below are by Juicy Couture.
