One item that should be in your closet this Fall season is the military jacket. I’m fortunate enough to have one from a few years ago that I held onto, and I usually throw it into rotation around this time of year. Even more reasons to wear them, military jackets are everywhere this season and so I’m looking forward to styling this one in the coming months.

Another staple of mine for the autumn and winter months are leggings. When I saw this cute pair from Free People I was drawn to them immediately because of the cutout and button detailing along the sides. I typically wear leggings with flats or more casual shoes. But these leggings were just so cute that they deserved a nice feminine heel to compliment them. I’m really happy with how they worked out, especially with this military jacket for an ultra feminine military chic look.

I find it’s always a bonus when you can score leggings that not only look cute casual but can also be dressed up. Likewise if they are a statement piece on their own, for those days when you’re lazy but still want to look stylish. They also come in lots of other yummy colours for Fall (here). It’s pieces like this that make this summer lovin’ girl get excited about Fall. What about you, any pieces that you’re really looking forward to styling this Fall?

Spending the last few weeks of summer doing what we do best: getting lost in the middle of nowhere. And no better way to go out than in true summer spirits: denim cutoffs and a bohemian kimono-style top. Picked up these caged heels the other day as I thought they would be perfect to wear while it’s still hot out as well as to transition into Fall with. And speaking of, cannot believe the summer has come and gone already…it seems to have gone by in the blink of an eye and hard to deny now that Labour Day has passed. Are you looking forward to Fall? Or is a small part of you crying on the inside like me?

Wore this Doe and Rae mauve dress to work earlier this week. One of the things I love about summer is the simplicity of getting dressed. Nothing beats throwing on a cute dress with sandals and being on your way. I wish summer could last forever. Although sadly Labour Day long weekend is here. Any plans?
