In a way, fall is a blend of summer and winter; that is exactly how the Club Monaco Fall 2013 collection treats the upcoming season. Instead of creating its own identity, the brand mixes and matches staples from its sandwiching seasons in order to create a line that is the best of two worlds. In a way, it holds onto summer a little bit longer by introducing such winter staples as knit hats, fur gloves and more earlier for added warmth.
The Club Monaco Fall 2013 lookbook has essentially "mastered the art of climate changeover to perfection," as aptly put by Refinery 29. Not only do mini skirts make an appearance, but also a slew of summer hues.
