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 absolutely love Mandy's look. Very boyfriend meets trendy. I would rock this look any day! You can dress it up or down and that is what I love about it. | |

I love Ali's outfit,they open back floral dress is so pretty and I love the bangles and black purse and black shoes.Everything just works so well together. | |
I definitely love the peplum trend, but I don't think I would be able to pull it off! I love Mandy's jewel toned suit pants - that would be a trend I'd be willing to try! | |
I love Alexsandra and Mandy's looks, but feel Alex's is closer to what I would buy today! | |
Ali's for sure, I love that dress!! | |
Love all these looks. Alex's is probably my favourite. | |
I really like both Alex and Ali's outfits, but if I have to just pick one it has to be Alex. Girl you look wonderful, you are rocking this outfit!! |
