The grandmother lived a half hour’s walk from the village; and when Little Red Riding Hood had reached the wood, she met the wolf.
You don’t need a hood and cape to channel Little Red: A blouse in her signature color will do. The bright hue is statement enough, so offset it with dark pants and jewelry. And of course, no long walk to grandmother’s house is complete without comfortable shoes.

Nakamol necklace: $64

The Princess shall prick herself and fall into a deep sleep for a hundred years.
Briar Rose might be nodding off, but that doesn’t mean

The Queen made a poisonous apple to give
to Snow White.
Snow White needs to call on her tougher side to outwit the Evil Queen; a leather jacket gives her an edge while pink pumps and a flowing dress stress femininity. The knockout Queen adds just a hint of red in her trendy high-low hemline, and ties the look together with a dramatic pair of earrings, and sky-high heels.
