Style and the Real Girl: Country Life

Posted by , on November 19, 2008 at 9:18 pm

This fall, designers took inspiration from the leisurely lives of the country gentry. Rich wool plaids, high-necked ruffle blouses, and leather riding boots ruled the runways, portraying an uppercrust rural sensibility worthy of Jane Austen, herself.

Here, we give you equally chic ways to take this look off the runway and onto the street.
