Pants: Zara; Top: Aritzia; Boots: Zara

I’m afraid the time has finally come to trade in our cutoffs and bikinis for pants and sweaters. Yesterday was officially the first day of the season of pumpkin spiced lattes, and although many of us are excitedly unpacking our blanket scarves, others are chanting the lyrics from ‘We Can’t Stop’ into their iced lemonades.

Whichever way you may swing, it’s time to accept the truth – winter is coming. As excited as I may be to finally wear my chunky turtleneck, I do sympathize with those who are in denial about the coming of fall. Closed toe boots feel oppressive, jackets make one’s arms feel like a damn snowman, and let’s not get started on skinny jeans. But might I suggest a different approach? This season, make a vow to choose pants and culottes over skinny jeans until your legs can physically no longer take it, but worry not, you have wiggle room until at least November. Choose sweaters that are a little more exciting than your conventional button down, and perhaps even pair everything in unconventional ways.

I chose to pair a long sweater with culottes because playing with proportions keeps things interesting. So unleash your inner daredevil and take risks with fall fashion. It’ll be the fashion equivalent of sipping on a pumpkin spiced latte as opposed to a boring old coffee.
