Looking to update your closet for a new season? Start by switching up your color palette. We’re sharing outfit inspiration around some of the gorgeous hues from Pantone’s fall color report for 2013. This week it’s all about pretty Koi.
Koi
This peachy-tinted orange hue is perfect for fall — just light enough to not weigh an outfit down but with enough heft to stand up to a cooler season.
Fun and flirty
Heading out to meet your BFFs for brunch? Meeting your guy for post-work cocktails at your favorite pub? You’ll look effortlessly fabulous in a bold orange miniskirt paired with black lace-up boots. Complete the fun, fall-ready look with a blouse that can be tucked into the skirt or left out, and a simple but chic clutch that helps round out the outfit.
Rag & Bone bomber miniskirt (nordstrom.com, $325), black lace-up boots (nastygal.com, $185),

Cozy and casual
There’s no better time than fall to break out the sweaters and create a look that’s cute, comfy and stylish all at once. Start with a sweater that stands out and add some skinny jeans and knee-high boots. Top off the easy-wearing look with a gray and black striped scarf.
