I’m so excited to finally start sharing my fall looks and inspiration with you! The past week has been a combination of busyness, laziness, planning and catching up on sleep, but I’m happy to say that with several coffees and trips to the gym–I’m BACK!!

I’m so inspired by the colours that are out this year and I loveeee that big hats are IN! I also love that the school girl look is EVERYWHERE, brings me back to the good ol’ days and the feeling of back to school shopping.

This look is all about playing with deep and bold colours all while keeping it comfy and casual, perfect for a September stroll around the town.

With this look, I was challenged to rework some oldies in my closet while adding a few new fun additions.

THE LIPS.

Lipsticks are one of my favourite things to play around with. I chose “MATTE fixed on drama” from Mac to compliment the hat. I applied it with a lip brush as it is quite an intense colour, which is beautiful, but I chose to apply sparingly. I also find that applying with a lip brush allows for better precision especially if you aren’t using a liner.

THE HAT

I had my radar out for a burgundy/wine coloured hat this year and I found this guy at ALDO in San Francisco for a measly $25.00. Hats are everywhere this year, so if you’re looking for one, I’m positive you’ll be successful. And if you don’t usually wear hats out, you should give it a go! I had to work myself up to trying it out and I love this one.

HEARTS. 

I’m naturally drawn to all things with hearts and I found this top at Forever 21 for under $30. I love the school girl collar and that its a stretchy knit sweater.

PANTS + WHITE BELT.

Both the pants and belt are oldies from Forever 21 that I decided to rework for fall. I love the colour and comfort of these pants. I don’t usually tuck things in, but I’m venturing outside my comfort zone and tucked this sweater in with a white belt. I’m certain my mother would be very proud that I’m tucking things in.

THE FLATS.

I purchased these flats from H&M a few months ago and they were around $20. It took me forever to get into flats because I always found that they hurt my feet and gave me blisters. More recently I discovered the trick with flats was (took me forever I know) to purchase them a bit bigger– now they are one of my most comfortable go to’s!

Until next time.
