Burnt Orange

Hi Prepsters

I wanted to share an outfit featuring one of my favorite colours for the fall and winter season. Burnt orange (Or as my mom calls it, rust) is such a great colour on for every skin-tone. I found these amazing pants (size 16) from Reitmans last year just at the end of winter, and didn’t get a chance to wear them until now. The material has a slight stretch to it, and the pants are a straight leg making them great for the office. I couldn’t find the exact pair, but I found a similar colour with a slim leg from Nordstrom (click here for the link)

Turtlenecks are a winter essential for me. I have them in every basic colour because they’re easy to throw on underneath a blazer or jacket for a simple but stylish look. I found this really great tunic-length one from Joe Fresh’s extended size line (size 1 X). I loosely tucked the sweater in to show the button detailing of the pants, and to add a more layered look to the outfit. I think this sweater would be fabulous with a pair of pleather leggings as well.

Accessories

The purse was found at Chapters while I was book hunting. I never expected them to have such a great range of fashion items ranging from sweaters, ponchos, scarves, bags, and winter accessories. The bag which is by Chapter’s house brand Love and Lore, sold out over the past few days but they do have a similar one currently on sale for $18 currently. (click here)

I love a classic shoetie (a shoe bootie)! These ones were also originally from Joe Fresh, who by the way have been killing it with their shoe/boot game. I find the quality to be superior to what’s available on the market compared to the price and the colours and styles have been extremely trendy. I found a similar pair to these at DSW Canada. They’re a stretchy knit, making them perfect for sliding into.
