Some of the big trends this season include variations of the colour grey, lots of hardware, patterns and textures which can be found on clothing, shoes and accessories. It can become a bit overwhelming trying to decide how to go about incorporating at least one of those trends into your existing wardrobe or an outfit.  So, I decided to come up with an outfit that combines all four trends into one complete outfit.
This is an ensemble you can wear on a fun night out on the town with your girls or special someone.

Along with all the holiday decor and outerwear that is overtaking all the stores, it’s also nearing the time for stores to showcase resort collections from designer labels.  Resort collection clothing and accessories are a selection of pieces that are specially made for the holiday season and run through January.
Basically, the pieces are targeted for those lucky few who go on holiday to some tropical location while the rest of us suffer through the cold temps, rain, sleet and snow.
If you’re one of those lucky jet-setters about to frolic on the sand with the crystal blue ocean …read more

Plaid is a pretty trendy look this season. I own a plaid top that looks like it came out of my mother’s closet circa 1980. And I love it! A great fitting button up plaid top with skinny jeans and boots makes a great casual outfit. The same button up top with a high waisted skirt makes a great work ready look. But, some people need to look in the mirror before they walk outside in plaid (ahem Kelly Clarkson).
Now, Miss Kelly, I am the last person to say that I am perfect, but I know when things look okay …read more

Vests have slowly made a comeback. Last season it was all about the slinky black leather vest. This season I have seen countless numbers of people wearing faux fur (and maybe even real fur!) vests over sleeveless tees, skinny jeans and enormous boots. And, of course, there is the ever so popular puffy vest. The puffy vest has a special place in my heart, as I swore them off for the rest of my life after I spent a year in northern Wisconsin. All the girls wore was a puffy vest and snow boots every single day. I did not …read more

If you want an easy and affordable way to delve into this season’s purple trend, Forever 21 should be one of the first places to check. They have a large selection of tops, dresses and outerwear that are always on top of the latest trends and you can score a lot of great items for not a lot of money.

The seasons of Fall and Winter are the best times to rock a jacket. A chic and stylish jacket is an easy way to take your outfit into a whole new fashion level. Whether adorned with sequins, faux fur or made with velvet or silk, jackets are a Fall and Winter wardrobe staple. I found some fantastic jackets at Shopbop that are sure to transform your look from ho-hum to hot!
Tweed is another Fall staple and this hot tweed Sequin Lapel Blazer by AKA New York ($428) has just the right amount of stylish details to make it interesting. What’s …read more

Do you have a go-to Fall clothing item or an outfit combination that you love and feel good in? One of my favourite Fall staples are corduroy pants, I have them in black, brown and tan but I seem to always go for my charcoal grey pair.
Since grey is one of the colours to have for Fall, I thought it would be fun to create an outfit combination that’s fun, funky and perfect to wear when the cold temperatures hit.
Gap Moleskin Coat ($88) – This coat will liven up any outfit! If you already have the basic shades for outerwear …read more

I am slowing falling love with boots for this Fall season. I found my dream pair of boots, these Christian Louboutin Velours Scrunch Boot. They’re pretty darn amazing and need little to no explanation as to why I love them. These Halston Cluny Cut Out Boots though, need some explanation.
Aren’t boots made to keep you warm? Not to cool you off a la sandals or even some heels? The side zip fastening with open back with buckle fastening straps just confuse me, but to be honest I take fashion for what it is. I’m not like Malvin from Project Runway …read more

Purple has started to creep it’s way in to my closet. It is totally the color of the fall season and it is definitely a great color to make your traditionally chic and funky fall outfit new again. Whether it is earrings, necklaces, shoes, or even this Chloé Bay Leather Bag from the Outnet everyone will know you are ready for the change in seasons.
This bag is a purple quilted leather bag with gold handles and the pretty signature Chloé plaque on the lower left side. It zips on the top and and has the extra storage space in the front with double …read more
