It’s shaping up to be a glossy season, thanks to all of the patent leather and PVC pieces on the runways at J.W. Anderson, Marni, and Derek Lam, to name a few. In stores now: Tibi’s vinyl pencil skirt (perfect for pairing with a silk blouse), Shakuhachi’s cap-sleeve leather dress, and trash & vaudeville’s Deville vinyl jeans. There’s plenty of accessories to choose from, too, like Jeffrey Campbell’s jelly tote, or Yves Saint Laurent’s mirror-like belt — a sleek, sexy choice for completing any outfit. If these attention-grabbing items worthy of a Steven Klein editorial are a bit too much, try adding some shine to your beauty bag. Swipe on a deep purple lip gloss by Tom Ford, slick back your hair with Bumble and Bumble’s Gellac, or mix in Lancôme’s Eclat Miracle with foundation to create a glow. And for something even subtler, pick up OPI’s Every Month is Oktoberfest nail polish. Click ahead to see 22 high-shine items for fall.
