Adding Winter to my Summer

I love the lush colours of Fall / Winter fashion.  Rich shades like burgundy, maroon, navy, chocolate brown seem to permeate even the most hidden corners of my soul.  Like the refreshing appearance of Justine’s winter tights, I decided to let my little winter buddies come out to play in the heat.  The closet can be so imprisoning!  I was starting to get sick of the nudes and pales anyway… (Wow, I just blasphemed?)  Time for some serious colour saturation for the eyes!



I am wearing..

Shirt dress:  H&M
Lambskin Leather Bow Belt:  Hugo Boss
Purse:  Danier
Pendant:  A random booth of a cultural festival at Dundas Square
Lipstick:  Sephora (I think the shade is discontinued?  I got it for $5 on clearance)

  1. Wow. You look so gorgeous. I really love the red lips with the burgundy shirt dress. You really accessorized this outfit well too – the cameo and belt are perfect. Makes me so excited for fall.

  2. I LOVE THIS LOOK FOR FALL!
    Burgundy is one of my favorite colors and you just reminded me WHY. its so warm and sophisticated yet PUNCHY!
    I love the hugo boss belt…i might have to go get that.

    this outfit is seriously just perfection.

  3. I’m SO behind on catching up on your blog! :( Glad I have time to read it now!

    Okay I love this look! I really love your belt and how you wore it. At first I thought it was a DIY.

    Yay, I can’t wait for fall now :)

  4. Sooo if your red shirtdress goes missing it ran away to my closet. JK its so beautiful though. I’m so ready to wear winter and fall colors. Pastels can suck it ;)
    ps:saying things make your heart sing makes me sooo happy! i read that comment and i am determined to use that statement in conversation tomorrow.

  5. Ooo you look so pretty. I love those red shades. I can’t believe fall is coming closer. It feels like summer just started, and now it’s going to be over.

  6. I love the bow. I say fuck it to specific colours for certain times of the year. Wear what you want. Electric blue in spring? DO IT. Blood red in summer? DO IT. Blood red lipstick ANYTIME OF YEAR? DO IT.

    If that’s what you like, DO IT. :)

    Deep red lipstick is my fave anyway. It suits you. Especially with your fringe!

    XX.
    Mae Lu, thereafterish.

  7. I love deep hues for the Fall and Winter. Unfortunately, I have a pale complexion and burgundy/maroon lips would never look good on me :’(

    On the contrary, that lipstick shade look soooo great on you :D And I love the giant bow belt!!!
