Are you tired of clothes that are priced too high and cut too low? Do you want to look sleek and stylish but still be comfortable? Then join the ranks of millions of women who turn to the advice of Sam Saboura to learn his Style Secrets for Real Women with Real Bodies.

Saboura, who has dressed some of our favorite celebrities as well as countless everyday women on ABC's Extreme Makeover has eight tips to help you learn how to make fashion choices that best suit their figure and personality.

1. Borrowed from the Boys
Menswear looks will invade your closet this fall with cuts, fabrics, and styles that are borrowed from the boys-or boyfriends.

Try a long boyfriend cardigan, or a slouchy boyfriend blazer over a simple T and your favorite jeans.

Mix a classic tweed, boucle, or traditional suiting fabric like herringbone with your favorite feminine top for contrast. A little bit of boyish style goes a long way this season to keep you fashionable and cool.

Saboura says structured knits are everywhere for fall, and you'll love the comfort and style of this easy wearing trend. With a touch of stretch and lots of body, Ponte knits work beautifully as a pant, a skirt, a dress, or a jacket.

Knit pieces afford lots of structure while smoothing any bumps and bulges on the body for a sleek and modern look.
