Outfit - Fall essentials

You think I'm pretty
Without any make-up on
You think I'm funny
When I tell the puch line wrong
I know you get me
So I'll let my walls come down, down

Before we met
I was a wreck
But things were kinda heavy
You brought me back to life
Now every February
You'll be my valentine, valentine

Let's go all the way tonight
No regrets, just love
We can dance until we die
You and I
We'll be young forever

You make me
Feel like
I'm living a teenage dream
The way you turn me on
I can't sleep
Let's run away
And don't ever look back
Don't ever look back
 - TEENAGE DREAM -- KATY PERRY

Although I didn't see the Teen Choice Awards last night, I am really digging Katy Perry's new song although for the most part I find her songs to be repetitive and annoying.  Her last song with Snoop had an almost identical beat as Tik Tok by Ke$ha.  The lyrics are really touching!
Music aside, I thought I would do a post on some fall fashion essentials.  It can get really cold here in Canada, so since we are going to be putting our summer dresses away soon here are some things necessary to get ready for fall!

Tops - very structured and strong shapes, velvet, velour, turtlenecks, draping, patches, cropped
Pants - loose-fitted, flowing pants or embellished leggings, leather, high-waist, suit-style simple pant
Skirts - the schoolgirl, pleats, leather, micro minis, high waist, minimal denim, pencil
Jackets - leather, trench, vests (fur vests are big this fall!)
Boots - leather, suede, rubber,  fur
Tunics - prints (think Picasso) or dark classic colours with lots of layers or leggings!

Lingerie inspired fashion is still huge on the runway.  Tights, embellishments, lace and feminine detailing add to this dominantly masculine season.  Lots of layering will keep you warm and fashionable!

The boyfriend blazer is a classic piece that has found a place in many fashionistas' wardrobes. Victoria's Secret has done a spin on this piece to invent a new staple - the boyfriend cardigan.  Looks cozy!  I am picking one up soon.  Here are a few photos from their fall collection I found inspirational.

Boyfriend cardigan with an embellished tank and micro mini.  Minimal accessorizing with chunky silver bracelets and thigh high boots makes this outfit chic but cosy.
Gorgeous trench coat with distressed denim, over-the-knee socks and high boots.
The high wasted pencil skirt with more chunky bracelets and a cropped leather blazer.  Perfect outfit for fall and the colours are dark and simple.
The belt makes this outfit and it is perfect for the inbetween season!  Absolutely gorgeous styling.

Before I leave you just a quick outfit post from yesterday.
Casual and comfy!
