Last Days of Summer


It started to rain during the last half hour of my time at Thunderbird Park last week...fall must be almost here! I have a feeling this may be my last summery outfit of the season. I love this striped skirt so much, I'm glad I got one more wear out of it before being packed away for the winter.

I had great time checking out a horse jumping competition at Thunderbird Park with Swiss luxury watch brand Longines. Fashion blogger and buddy Samantha of OTISamantha invited me along for the lovely afternoon - I've never been much a horse person, but it as really neat to see just how insanely high the jumps are, and the skill it takes to make the jumps. It was hard not to get into it: every time a horse inadvertently knocked over one of the poles on a jump, you could hear the entire audience let out a sigh of dismay. When they completed the course perfectly, the crowd was full of excited cheers! It was pretty exciting to watch and listen.

People watching at the event actually got me quite excited about fall fashion - there was so much equestrian style on display, and I've always loved infusing the equestrian style of brands like Ralph Lauren into my fall wardrobe. I can't wait to unbox all my fall clothes and get to work creating some equestrian-inspired outfits now!

What clothing item or style are you most excited to rock this fall?

Look of the Week: Equestrian Style

When I found this amazing equestrian-style jacket at Value Village, I couldn't have been happier: it has so many small details that make it a real special piece. It pairs perfectly with a cozy thrifted cashmere sweater and some riding-pants-coloured jeans. If you've got a pair of brown boots, that's all you'll need to complete the look. The irony is I'm not really a fan of horses, never read 'The Saddle Club' or anything growing up, but any style that is preppy, I'm generally a fan of.

Because the neckline of the jacket is so high, I thought it would be nice to showcase the baroque-style Nobis & Grey necklace over top of the jacket, rather than tucked underneath. Makes it a real statement piece!
