So *This* Is How to Make a Sweater and Boots Look As Elevated As a Dress and Heels

Dressing up for dinner or a date is always easier during the summer because you can wear all the minidresses and strappy heels your heart desires. Once the weather gets colder, you don't want to get stranded outside with bare legs and arms. Sweaters and boots might not seem inherently dressy, but Jessica Alba just proved that the fall-ready combo can indeed look elevated for a night out.

Photographed in Los Angeles this week, Alba wore an oversized sweater, satin slip skirt, knee-high leather boots, and a cozy scarf. Wearing a few different shades of brown, this look is a prime example of how to do tonal dressing right. She even went as far as to paint her nails dark brown! Now that's dedication to a color palette. Her outfit is simultaneously weather-appropriate, elegant, and comfortable. What's not to love?
