I think though they are 2003 advice, they are applicable to any Fall Season, my notes are in red.
The 10 Commandments of Fall
1.Be Perpetually Polished-from the tips of your fingers to the toes of your alligator shoes, well groomed sheen is queen.
2.Keep Them Guessing-over the knee boots and leather opera gloves, leave something to the imagination.

3.Take a Deep Breath-waist cinching coats, curve clutching skirts and tight little sweaters are sleek, sharp and positively aerodynamic.
4.Invest in a Chic Party Dress- dance floor sweeping or upper thigh grazing, this season's after-dark looks are seriously soignee.

5.Think Like a Movie Star
6.Cozy up to a Faux Fur Stole- yeah you guys already know I don't like fur.
7.Shock Them With Color - Turn on the brights, whether it's a huge emerald cocktail ring or a fushia satin bag.
8.Sharpen Your Wit- trying a ballerina skirt or a dress of playful chiffon flower petals
9.Paint it Red-Forties era crimson lips are fall's most important war paint.

10.Emulate Kate the Great -Katherine Hepburn that is, from her tweedy menswear to her regal bias-cut gowns all is just so autumn-ish.
