Pre-Fall Fashion Round Up

all inspiration images can be found here

On or around August 1st every year, I start pining for fall. This year, it happened a little later because we had the best few weeks of Whistler, trips out East, and spending time with family and friends. While you all know I try to live in the present, fall truly is my favorite time of year and I couldn’t be more excited about fall fashion. I put together a list of pieces - many I already own, some new, that to me round up a perfect fall wardrobe. For me, this fall is all about oversized menswear pieces - pants and blazers - good quality basics, quiet luxury, and some fun stand out colors. I encourage you to spend a few hours cleaning out your closet - donating and selling what doesn’t serve you - and reaching for pieces you already own and love before seeing what you might want to add for a fun addition to your fashion arsenal. Personally, I’ve blocked off a day this week to do the same and I’m going to use my fashion moodboard as a reference for the pieces I’m trying to pull together.

Tops / Dresses

• To me, a tank top is a year round layering piece. I love this one and this one (which I have in all three colors). I love this pointelle version too.

• My go to dress for all seasons - but I’m specifically honing in on black for fall.

• A sweater that will last years

• Considering this dress for a wedding in Italy this fall. Also ordered this red one to try.

• Love this slip dress

Shoes

• When it comes to Birkenstocks, I’m debating between these and these - thoughts?

Accessories

• Another dream bag

• I would highly recommend this bag (such a fun color - I have it in pink)
