Long-Sleeve Crew-Neck Loose Sweater
“Fall is basically synonymous with sweater weather, and I always look for sweaters that offer maximum styling abilities. I particularly love this loose crew neck because the stitches add a touch of sophistication. You can wear it on its own, layer it on top of a collared shirt or throw it over your shoulders to elevate any look.”
Wide-Leg High-Rise Pinstripe Pant
“Wide-leg pants continue to get the shine they deserve, and the pinstripe design on this pair adds a classic touch to a trendy piece. While the wide leg can be intimidating for some, Reitmans offers these in petite, tall and curvy, allowing you to find a comfortable fit for your body type. Style them with a button-up shirt for a more tailored look, or a fitted top if you’re feeling casual.”
“If you ask me, everyone needs a pleated midi skirt in their fall wardrobe, but why not spice things up with a beautiful pattern? The elastic waistband and A-line silhouette of this skirt offers plenty of styling options, so you can get more bang for your buck. My favourite? Tucking a chunky knit sweater into the waistband for a chic, yet cozy look.”
“Faux leather jackets are having a moment this fall, and I just love how this one has a fun, feminine edge to it. The design is clean and simple, making it the perfect companion for all of your fall looks. Pair it with jeans and a tee for a more laid-back look, or wear it over a black maxi dress for a glam-meets edgy look.”
“As a stylist, I believe you can never have enough bags but this convertible backpack is my top pick this season. Why? It’s perfect for the on-the-go gal! From its ability to be worn as a backpack or carried as tote, to the various pockets and dividers, this bag is functionality at its finest, and can carry everything you need to get through your busy schedule.”
