My Favourite Fall Blazer

Can you believe it’s almost September? I’m not thrilled that Summer is coming to an end but I do love Fall fashion. I recently shopped the Nordstrom Anniversary sale and stocked up on some Summer pieces. Living in Canada we unfortunately don’t have access to all the Nordstrom sale items before they sell out but I was able to find some similar pieces from Canadian retailers.Today I’m sharing one of my favourite Fall transition pieces.

I love this checked blazer I picked up at Dynamite. It’s a versatile piece that can be dressed up or down. There was a similar blazer that was part of the Nsale as well. I paired the blazer with a white lace trim tank top and high waisted jeans which are also from Dynamite.

You can also pair this blazer with a black tank top, or a white or black mock neck top. For cooler weather I would pair it with a turtleneck. I like that this blazer can be a casual or work wear look depending on how you style it. I was going for more of a casual look.

To accessorize I picked up this triple chain medallion necklace at Dynamite. It’s very similar to the popular Styled Collection medallion necklace but at a lower price point. I picked up these Steve Madden booties at the Nsale and they paired perfectly with the entire outfit. These particular booties run a bit small so I went up a half a size to a 7 in them.

I finished off this outfit with my favourite anniversary sale find which a purse from Tory Burch. You can wear it as a cross body or carry it as a clutch and the colours are just perfect for Fall.

Stay tuned for more of my Fall fashion finds!

Chanel Inspired Blazer

 

Coco Chanel was the epitome of style and glamour when it came to fashion, so it’s no surprise that the label which bares her name and legacy is still the gold standard in the fashion world. The Chanel label was famous for its classic looks and of course the Chanel suit. Although Chanel is lovely it also comes with a hefty price tag which is sometimes a little hard to justify. You can however find some really great pieces which are Chanel inspired.

I found this great Chanel inspired blazer at Suzy Shier. It has the typical Chanel suit style with the tweed look and the pockets on the sides with a gold trim on the border. The grey colour is also versatile as you can dress it up or down. I chose to pair this blazer with a basic white t-shirt and skinny jeans also from Suzy Shier.  This blazer is definitely a class piece to add to your wardrobe. You can dress it up by pairing it with a work dress or a dressy blouse. Isn’t it nice to be inspired by such an iconic designer 😉
