Look of the Week: Tan Waterfall Coat

I haven't been feeling much like dressing up lately, with this cold refusing to subside, so I've been resorting to super cozy jackets and low-heeled ankle boots when I feel the need to look presentable! Doesn't sound so bad, does it? This faux-suede waterfall jacket from Winners is insanely soft inside (seriously, my whole family was petting it yesterday), so it's an obvious choice if I have to actually get out of my pjs.

And these ankle boots? Just enough height to make them more exciting than flats, but still super easy to walk in. If you're going to invest in one pair of fashionable boots for next season, these mushroom/olive suede ankle boots from The Bay are a great choice. They're sold out now, but I've linked to similar ones below. Just don't wear them when you're driving a standard car, it will wear out the back of the heels. Such a sad moment when I realized what had happened...learn from my mistakes, folks!

Look of the Week: Fall & winter fashion staple, the faux fur vest

This is from a little while back now, when I checked out the annual Cranberry Festival in Fort Langley. This is always my favourite event to kick off the fall/winter season; the streets are full of tasty homemade treats, handmade gifts & trinkets, and of course there are cranberries in bulk packs being sold in front of city hall. You can't help but get excited for the season of family turkey dinners, chilly walks, and cozy sweaters!

I'm a big fan of faux fur; it has this luxuriously cozy look and feel to it that make it such an iconic part of fall/winter fashion. It made for the perfect statement piece over my thrifted cashmere sweater and vintage-looking Olive + Piper knot necklace. My favourite oufit colour palette at the moment is a mix of cream, wine, cognac and olive, all of which I incorporated here. Ankle boots are the perfect way to amp up the style without sacrificing comfort; I can walk in these ones all day! If you haven't been before, mark down October 10th 2015 in your calendar! You don't want to miss it next year.
