THE GOODS: It's the season of easy dressing

Comfort chic, the effortless style that marries soft fabrics with loose, menswear-inspired tailoring, is emerging as a go-to look this season.

Comfort chic, the effortless style that marries soft fabrics with loose, menswear-inspired tailoring, is emerging as a go-to look this season.

The trend started last year with sneakers: a clean, white pair worn with dresses for spring, and now cashmere and wide trousers (goodbye, for now, to snug skinnies) for fall/winter. It's the era of easy dressing with oversized silhouettes, balanced with soft textures and tones - all bundled together to keep us warm through the winter. Scroll through the photo gallery to see a few comfy North Shore finds to help get the look.
