Fall school fashion: Outfit diary!

Hi there! 

Fall weather is quickly approaching and I have put together a few of my favourite outfits that are perfect for school. In autumn and winter, I tend to go for loose fitting tops paired with skinny jeans or leggings. Today I will show you how to liven up basic cotton shirts and how to wear my favourite piece: the sweater dress. All of these outfits are paired with a simple pair of black leggings and a tall black pair of riding boots. I believe that these 2 items will be the staples of my fall-winter wardrobe.

Outfit #1: Autumn boho chic 
For the first outfit, I paired a simple maroon colour tee with a gorgeous blue lace-y slip by Free People. If I had just worn the slip alone, the outfit would be slightly too dressy for class and if I had only worn the maroon tee, the outfit would be too plain. Paired together, the look is casual yet well thought out.

Outfit #2: Romantic and casual
For the second outfit, I paired a simple grey tee with a gorgeous silk lace top underneath. The silk peeks out from the bottom of the tee causing the outfit to be slightly dressier. The lace at the top also peeks out and gives the outfit a romantic feel.

Outfit #3: Sweater dress 1 
The sweater dress is one of my favourite autumn/winter pieces. They are so easy to wear as they are just one piece and look cute and feminine. This one is a light oatmeal colour and I like to roll up the sleeves on my sweater dresses. I paired the dress with my rose gold Michael Kors cuff-like bracelet.

Outfit #4: Sweater dress 2
I just wanted to include another sweater dress I love, this one is a v-neck and is slightly more fitted. Both sweater dresses are by H&M and are under $20, I highly recommend them. 
A cozy sweater:
Especially for fall, it is always important to have some kind of jacket or outerwear. I like to wear large cozy sweaters over my class outfit and this one is by Wilfred.

Hope you all enjoyed reading this as much as I enjoyed writing it,
