I’ve come to love juxtaposition in fashion. Maybe it’s the Gemini in me that yearns for extreme opposites to blend together in harmony…Yet as I type this I can’t help but realize just how much my zodiac sign has impacted my life. Fashion aside, my two favourite types of music are soca and heavy metal – two extreme opposites. So I guess it’s no wonder that I wanted to pair a chic yet edgy biker jacket with trackpants and a pair of elegant heels. But I love the contrasting mixture no different than Metallica following up a Destra Garcia song.

When going for this look, if that ‘off the runway kinda vibe’ is what you’re after then dress up track pants with a very elegant, somewhat statement heel. A feminine bag will compliment the look as well. A benefit of this look is the effortless transition from day to night. This look can easily be worn to run errands during the day. For night, just add strappy sandals or dainty pumps. Anyone else out there who seems to be drawn to opposites? How do you like to dress up track pants?

Happy weekend!

Layering has hit new levels of chic with slip dresses going over long sleeve tees and even chunky knits. With that said, what a fabulous yet warm way to continue getting wear out of slip dresses in the fall and winter. And don’t be afraid to layer this look over pants or jeans, as this will provide lots of fun options to play around with when it’s cooler outside. Likewise to stay warm I opted to wear mine with a biker jacket. Although I did debate over a long chunky knit, in the end I went with the biker jacket. Because I just cannot resist that rough and edgy vibe mixed with a delicate feminine look. And what about you, are you planning on wearing your slip dress this Fall? What are you going to layer your slip dress with?

Buckled

Sometimes all a girl needs to properly enjoy Fall is simply having the right pieces in her closet. Pieces that make you smile when you look at them. But most importantly, ones that are effective for the season. For me, that meant the addition of a light knit sweater and buckled ankle boots sans the heel to my Fall lineup.

Not sure how I overlooked black booties in the first place. However, kinda glad I did because these ones just came out from Pink Martini. In addition, they had all the features I was looking for in a Fall boot: buckled ankle boots in black. Plus they also have some studded detailing which I love. It’s always a bonus when you’re able to find an item with all features you had in mind.

I also grabbed a lightweight grey knit (which looks like a lot my other sweaters) but I guess at times you can’t help it…you like what you like. I’ve never been a fan of huge bulky sweaters, typically opting for lighter ones and just layering the sh!t out of them, depending on how cold it is. Worn with vegan leather leggings over a lace tank. What are some of your Fall staples/new seasonal additions to your wardrobe?

Enjoy your day! xo
