Hello Fall

To Vogue or Bust shares fall 2016 trend tips in a White and Warren cashmere cardigan, Peau de Loup oxford shirt, Mavi skinny jeans, Aritzia bega bag, Daniel Wellington watch and Nine West leopard heels While I’m still managing to get out for a run or brisk walk in a tank top these days, pretty much every other time of the day I am snuggled into a sweater or jacket. Whether you were counting down the days to fall or trying to hold onto every last day of summer, I think we can all agree it’s officially time to start busting out the fall style. While my last fall transition post still had a heavy summer slant, today’s is pretty full-on fall because while the sun’s out, I’m starting to really feel the chill! Plus, any excuse to break out the luxe menswear-inspired pieces I love most like this White + Warren cashmere cardigan (literally feels like wrapping yourself in a cloud) and my go-to oxford shirt from Peau de Loup.

They’re also the easiest pieces to layer up for fall, which is part of the reason why despite the fact that summer is my favourite season overall, fall is indisputably my favourite from a style perspective.

Nipping in with a belt, ensuring you pick pieces that fit you (I stayed true to size with the cardigan instead of sizing up [as I often do with my cozies] because while I want to layer it tons, I don’t want it to overwhelm my frame either) and making the most of rolling sleeves, pant bottoms if you’re wearing something suit-inspired or baggy jeans, tucking in your top to minimize bulk, etc.

Discrete, but they keep the whole #ootd looking more borrowed-from-the-boys than schlumpy.

More on it soon! All I can say for now is that we had a lot of moving parts (figuring out campaigns, dates, etc) but now that we’re settled on a date range and have found flights that work for us, we’re basically freaking out. I’m a bit of a superstitious type so waiting till the tickets are in our inbox before I share where we’re going and desperately asking for any and all of your tips (we’ll need it this time!) but suffice it to say, beyond excited! If you have a hunch, venture a guess in the comments below ;).

    This is one of my favourite outfits I’ve seen for fall this year. It’s probably because that cardigan is actual perfection! And SO exciting about your trip. I’m thinking it must be somewhere even further than Europe. Australia? Asia?
