WEAR WHAT WORKS Attention to detail

Try these ideas on how to incorporate trendy tweed into your wardrobe.
Small doses: Not a huge fan of tweed, but you love being trendy and you don't have a big budget? Try wearing the fabric in less obvious ways such as a hair clip.
Mix it up: Tweed complements other textured fabrics such as corduroy and suede.
Color is an option: You aren't limited to shades of brown, black, gray and green. Tweeds now come in hues such as purple (a big color this fall), pink, yellow, orange and light blue.
Flat out: Flower clips can keep herringbone ballerina-style flats from looking too manly.
Softer side: A lingerie-style top and delicate jewelry add femininity to tweed.
The friendliest tweed: Salt-and-pepper tweed is especially flattering to curvier body types.
Arm yourself: Hand-woven tweed bags are stylish and practical.
