Fall-ing into a New Season
Monday, October 26, 2015
Fall is a “love it
or hate it” kind of thing. You can pretend that you like pumpkin spice lattes,
or that you spend your Saturday evenings walking through the river valley
admiring the gorgeous yellow, orange, and red leaves, but you can’t fool us
fall-lovers; we know your commitment truly lies elsewhere in the seasons.
When I think
back, it has only been a few years since I’ve truly embraced fall and all of
the amazing things it has to offer. It’s the season to dust off the oversized
sweaters, reach for those cute leather booties you’ve been dying to wear all
year, and wrap yourself in that beloved scarf that saves your little behind
every time you have to brave the cold...or in my case the 6 degree weather I
seem to wince at.
The air is just
crisp enough that it makes you enjoy its cold embrace for the smallest moment. On
most days it’s the perfect temperature, allowing you to throw on a light coat
and not have to worry about putting leggings on underneath your jeans -because unfortunately
that happens more often than I’d like to admit.
I’m going to throw
it out there and say for me, my favourite thing about fall would have to be
choosing outfits... typical, I know! BUT hear me out. It’s the only season
where you can mix and match your lighter pieces with some of your heavier
layers and still be dressed appropriately for the weather.
Although fall is quickly approaching us, I am still embracing the few warmer days we have left, and really utilizing my “transition into fall” pieces which focus a bit more on the lighter pieces.

The go-to outfit
I’ve been loving right now has got to be a black high-waisted skater skirt, a
white t-shirt, and a light-weight jean jacket finished with booties or
sneakers. I am all about the basics and keeping things as simple as possible.
This outfit keeps all of my basic colours and pieces into one look without it
being too boring or too busy. For those of us who need a bit more warmth in our
fall outfits, pairing this with cozy knee high tights and a blanket scarf is
the perfect way to incorporate those heavier pieces but still keeping it
functional for the cooler fall days!
