As the temperature drops and coats become mandatory when venturing outdoors, the exhausting conundrum of what to wear grows larger. An overcoat is a fantastic option to consider. Not only is there ample room underneath to don the chunkiest of sweaters, but it’s lengthy hem keeps your legs toasty warm. It’s classic silhouette ensures that it won’t go out of style by next season, (insert Working Girl reference here), and it can be dressed up or down, as demonstrated here.

When the movie Clueless came out in the 90s, I think it’s acceptable to say that it was an absolute favourite amongst myself and my girlfriends. I dreamed of a wardrobe filled with knee high socks and teddy bear backpacks. Alas, in place of matching plaid ensembles and Calvin Klein sheath dresses, at that time I was rocking the baggy Levi’s tees and jeans look. That’s all changed now though, and these knee high socks will be paired with an abundance of pieces in my closet. Hopefully you all don’t get tired of them before I do, consider yourselves warned.

One of my favourite things about fall fashion is that you can build your entire wardrobe around tried and true staples, and spend the entire season mixing and matching. A chunky knit turtleneck can go from the office, to brunch with the girls, to après ski on the mountain. Leather pants, an investment piece that will last you years, will also cover you (literally) for all of your fall/winter fashion needs. While it’s tempting to purchase those ‘wow’ pieces, ostrich feather skirts and sequin crop tops don’t have the same versatility as the time-honoured classics.

I have to admit that my comfort zone usually lies in the realm of all things ‘girlie’. Dresses, glitter, high heels, the prettier and more feminine, the better. I’ve found, however, that the older I get, the more drawn I become to clothing with some edge. Ripped jeans, leather jackets, motorcycle boots, they’ve all found their way into my wardrobe, and I get the feeling they’re slowly catching up in numbers to the tulle and sequins. But as long as pink leather jackets are a thing, I don’t feel like I’m completely conceding my girlish touch.

I have to apologize for my intermittent blogging the past couple of months. Sometimes life gets busy and it’s a struggle to keep up with everything. I know everyone out there can relate. You know those days, the ones where you don’t make the bed because you’ve made a deal with your tired self that you’ll be back there soon, which is a lie. Often these are just little blips though, so don’t fret my friends, I have so much in the works for you coming up. I’ll get this bus back on track.
