Six Fall Looks That Can Go From High-Fashion Pictorials To Real-Life

September is swiftly approaching, which means cooler weather in Korea. As the dog days of summer dwindle, the onslaught of gorgeous fall pictorials has begun. The September issue of fashion magazines is one of the most significant releases, which provides context for the star-powered covers of magazines like ELLE Korea. While runway fashion is seemingly unattainable for many people, fall pictorials often provide styles that can be worn in real-life. 

Here are six fall looks that can seamlessly transition from high-fashion pictorials to real-life. 

1. Park Shin Hye and Sung Joon provide a stylish take on the "couples" look. 

The latest additions to the Fall/Winter line of Mind Bridge prove that the couples look popularized by Korea and Taiwan does not always mean matching t-shirts. Park Shin Hye pairs an oversized jacket with shorts and  white shirt, providing an updated take on the trend of clothes that look like they were borrowed from a boyfriend's closet. Sung Joon pairs simple cotton shirts with fitted blazers and slacks for style that transitions from the office to after hours, date looks. 

2. Kim Woo Bin pairs patterned sneakers with a suited look.

Kim Woo Bin continues to demonstrate that he used to be a runway model with his strong presence in suited looks for Sieg Fahrenheit. He breaks up the seriousness of each suit with fanciful, patterned sneakers.

3. Gong Hyo Jin proves that there is a place for bright colors in cool weather wardrobes. 

The fall can be a bummer for stylish women who like to wear bright colors. Gong Hyo Jin mixes a patterned dress with colorful accessories in her pictorial for Marie Claire Korea. 

4. Honey Lee is simplistically stylish with practical accessories. 

Honey Lee accompanies her simplistic, office-friendly blouse and skirt outfit with a zipped portfolio that can house necessary items. 

5. CNBLUE rock complimentary suits that would make for perfect wedding looks.

The members of CNBLUE are styled in complimentary suits which would be perfect for male participants in a fall or winter wedding. 

6. Lee Min Ho proves that there is a place for the open-shirt or shirtless look.

In his pictorial for the September issue of ELLE Korea, Lee Min Ho shows off a shirtless suit look that may not be appropriate for work, but would turn heads at the club.
