Back to Fall Lookbook: Office and Work Wear (plus Comment to Win!)
Early fall is generally monopolized by endless "Back To School" commercials, but many of us have long graduated from our backpack buying days. Still, that doesn't mean we don't love a good 'Back To Fall' shopping haul! Why wouldn't we want to partake in the fun?
We indulged in a little shopping spree of our own at Fairview Mall and came up with some excellent office-appropriate options for fall. We'll also give you a few styling tips for your back to fall shopping and help you transition your summer wardrobe seamlessly.
Ali
Style Tip: This past summer, the 'It' colours were neons and pastels, but now we're seeing lots of jewel tones. Wear a typically summer themed pattern (florals) in the fall with a simple switch of a colour palette. Keep your accessories and shoes on the darker side too and look for luxe fabrics like leather. On chillier days, layer with a cardi.
Dress: H&M
Bag: Danier
Bracelets: Aldo
Shoes: Town Shoes
Alexandra
Style Tip: If you already have a great basic black pencil skirt in your closet, now is the time to break it out! Update it and bring it into this season by pairing with a chic peplum top, one of the trendiest shapes right now. A good statement necklace adds pizzazz and can be paired with a ton of different looks.
Skirt: Zara
Top: Zara
Necklace: Express
Shoes: The Bay
Mandy
Style Tip: A great, flatteringly cut suit never goes out of style. Play around with colour and details for a fresh and modern take on a classic. Just because you're wearing a suit for work doesn't mean it has to be boring!
Blazer, Top, Pants: Express
Shoes: BCBG

 | I'd go for Ali's outfit since I really like the dress. |
 | I love Alexandra's outfit. It has a professional look but at the same time it is very feminine. It makes her look very classy and ladylike. Definitely something I would try! |
 | Ali and Alex must be freezing! I do like how both outfits can be easily "falled up" by throwing on a pair of tights underneath. Mandy's is just too masculine for me, pretty sure people would think I was a due. For me Ali's wins, plus some snuggly tights of course! |
 | This would be a tough decision for me. I am really torn between Alexandra and Ali's look. If I was the winner, I would probably gravitate towards Alexandra's look. |
 | The fall trend that I would be rocking would be the leather jacket with a pair of ripped/studded jeans and maybe a graphic tee to go with that assemble. Now for shoes it would be a nice pair of boots that are a bit grungy. |
 | I LOVE Ali's outfit! I would definitely want to rock her outfit this fall |
 | I absolutely adore Ali's look, it's classic, trendy and hip all at the same time! |
 | I love all the looks but especially Alexandra's, it'd be great for day and evening. |
 | I love Ali's look. That dress is great and I love the cut out in the back! |
 | I'd go with Alex's look! |
