One Foot In Fall

To Vogue or Bust shares fall transition style tips in a REVOLVE TULAROSA romper, Aritzia Wilfred trench coat, Aritzia Auxiliary Bega bag, Joie heels, Leah Alexandra jewelry and Ted Baker sunglassesI feel like September 1st is a nice starting point for introducing fall style transitions, non? It’s a properly early-fall-like day here in Vancouver, with the weather ranging from sunny to rainy. In fact, as I’m typing this there’s sun to my left while the rain continues to come down right overhead. Oh, Vancouver! Always keeping us on our toes. But likely anywhere you are in the world, it’s probably a decidedly odd time weather-wise – things are only cooling down slightly but weather might become more variable, and at any rate, probably just a little sundress isn’t sufficing anymore warmth-wise.

So in the next few posts, I’ll be sharing some of my favourite ways to introduce fall style to your summer wardrobe, starting with my perennial fave: the trench coat!

Both are lightweight so I don’t feel overly layered, but the trench adds some drama to it and also is a handy addition when drizzles happen!

You can try this with so many other pieces but I love the tomboyish quality of rompers especially! But obviously, light summer dresses, shorts, skirts, etc – the trench coat is kind of like a leather jacket in that it adds classic elegance to any look (as opposed to the effortless cool of the latter option). As always, accessories kind of make the whole look, from my Leah Alexandra jewelry (can we please talk about the ear climbers?!) to my go-to summer heels: my suede Joie heels from Nordstrom.

Finally, if you’re loving all the Aritzia pieces I have going on here (the Bega bag, the trench) be sure to get all the details on the warehouse sale here as it’s officially kicking off here in Vancouver!

And now, I’m off to Whistler for the weekend for some QT (quality time) with my besties, hiking and a wedding – make sure you follow along on all the fun on Snapchat (tovogueorbust) and Insta Story! Happy almost-weekend guys!

    I love the sandals!! They make this outfit so elegant. This is a great transition to fall oufit, because you combine a romper with a trench, two great options for gorgeous looks. You look just great, and so stylish!!
