Fall/ Winter lookbook (#3): country roads take me home

Who says you can’t wear floral in fall? In this third fall/ winter lookbook outfit, I’ll show you that you can. If you pick a floral on a dark (i.e. black) background and pair is with a pair of solid black boots it is very easy. I added a denim shirt on top to complete this very country look. The denim button down not only adds a casual tone to the outfit, but also toughens it up and gives it some edge. I went with some chunky jewelry to finish it off.

What I’m wearing:

– Denim button down shirt (H&M Divided Men)

– Basic black t-shirt (H&M)

– Dark floral skirt (Kensington Market Toronto/ Vintage)

– Necklace & bracelet (Forever 21)

– Shoes (H&M)

Detail around the waistline

I decided to go with a 90s knot rather than a belt for this as I thought it would suit the outfit better. Not in the first place because the shirt is super long as it’s a men’s size M.

The skirt I bought last summer when I was in Toronto. I love the pattern on it with pink and peach colored roses with plenty of greens against a black background. I already wore this right after I bought it while at the Niagara falls, so you may have seen it. At the time, I wore it with my denim jacket, which would be a great substitute if you don’t have a denim button down shirt.

Black chelsea wedge booties (H&M)

I wore my black opaque tights underneath it for an extra layer of warmth and went with my black wedge chelsea booties from H&M. These are insanely comfortable.

Geometric print/ black triangle short necklace (Forever 21)

Knot pattern cuff bracelet (Forever 21)

I like keeping jewelry simple yet chunky. Big statement bracelets like this wave pattern one from Forever 21 are my favorites. I love the necklace because it has the black that ties in nicely with the rest of the outfit.

One more time: complete outfit.

Any thoughts?
