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

 | love Alex's! |
 | If I was getting a makeover, I would totally rock Alexandra's look! |
 | i like Alexandra's |
 | I love all of them! For me personally, I would probably go for something like Alexandra's look. I really like Mandy's, but I feel like she is wearing the wrong type of shoe for the suit. |
 | I like Ali's outfit the best. I'm never sure how to wear floral prints, but the cut and style of the dress really work with it. I like the cut out back too. Very cute. |
 | I love the trend of jewel tones! I was not too happy with last year's neons so I'm delighted that the trendy colours this fall are more sophisticated. I'm actually thinking about buying deep purple or dark green jeans. |
 | I liked all the three different looks but my fave is Ali. |
 | I love Ali's dress! I've already decided to head to H&M;to find it...even though I won't be able to wear it for another few months cuz it won't fit over my belly. All of the outfits are gorgeous though! I'd wear them all! |
 | I love Alex's look!!! |
