The Winter Kate Fall 2011 collection puts a different spin on the boho chic style for which Nicole Richie is known. Although that hippie element is still there in full force, there is also a darker touch present that makes me think of sorceresses and witches.
Of course, considering that the Winter Kate Fall 2011 collection is designed for the autumn season, I shouldn't be so taken aback by its color palette. There is still a lot of print and patterns, as well as flowy frocks and leg-baring skirts, that keep this line relatively light-hearted.
The Winter Kate Fall 2011 collection also happens to have a lot more structure, paneling and contour, which sets it apart from past collections even more.
