Whether we like it or not, autumnal dressing is quickly approaching. Though we’re not quite ready to mourn the loss of our favourite summer dresses for yet another year, Jessica Alba and her recent look is making the five stages of grief a little bit easier.
Autumnal fashion is quite frankly elite. Think decedent layering, boots paired with skirts, sheer tights and the ability to don our favourite trousers without overheating.
Spotted on Monday en route to appear on the Late Show with Seth Meyers in New York City, the Honey actress made a sleek style statement for the occasion. She opted for a matching corset and trouser combo, which was adorned with giant diamanté embellishments dotted around the strapless neckline and down each trouser leg. Jessica paired her stylish set with a pair of pointed-toe heels, a black leather shoulder bag and a pair of drop diamond earrings.
For beauty, the actress kept things subtle and vibrant, letting her long brunette locks roam free in a loose wavy style with a middle parting.
The 43-year-old Californian-born actress is a known lover of all things high fashion, often spotted sitting front row at fashion shows and attending opulent events, including Swarovski’s recent Masters of Light - From Vienna to Milan exhibition alongside Laura Harrier and Gwyneth Paltrow.

When she’s not attending star-studded events, she can usually be found mapping the city streets in tailored jeans and blazer looks, shorts and heels and sleek summer dresses.
If, like us, you are finding the transitional dressing season a little tricky, we suggest you take a leaf out of Jesscia's book and find yourself a trouser and corset combo that's both wildly chic, easy to throw on and perfectly weather-appropriate.
