Fall layering 101.
Date October 20, 2020
Ombre coloured trees destined for Instagram posts and the scent of pumpkin spice lattes signal fall is officially here. As the weather continues to cool down, shirt jackets are the next piece to add to your fall wardrobe. Whether you’re living in tracksuits or feel like getting dressed up, the button-front layer in a thick flannel, cotton or wool gives a nonchalant, Isabel Marant-esque feel to your look with minimal effort.
In a solid earth tone or classic plaid, the shirt jacket is the perfect in-between layer for transitional weather. Styled to embody Hygge chic with sweats and chunky knits or worn with a silk slip dress, this overshirt is surprisingly versatile: Add more warmth on especially chilly days by wearing your favourite slim quilted down jacket under it or try a quilted vest layered on top. Size up for a more billowy and dramatic look that will give you room to wear even the most bulky knits underneath. Belt it or accessorize it with a giant clutch for a stylish statement and keep the look more refined by sticking to a tonal palette that will highlight the cozy fall textures.
