I have to admit that my comfort zone usually lies in the realm of all things ‘girlie’.  Dresses, glitter, high heels, the prettier and more feminine, the better.  I’ve found, however, that the older I get, the more drawn I become to clothing with some edge.  Ripped jeans, leather jackets, motorcycle boots, they’ve all found their way into my wardrobe, and I get the feeling they’re slowly catching up in numbers to the tulle and sequins.  But as long as pink leather jackets are a thing, I don’t feel like I’m completely conceding my girlish touch.

I have to apologize for my intermittent blogging the past couple of months.  Sometimes life gets busy and it’s a struggle to keep up with everything.  I know everyone out there can relate.  You know those days, the ones where you don’t make the bed because you’ve made a deal with your tired self that you’ll be back there soon, which is a lie.  Often these are just little blips though, so don’t fret my friends, I have so much in the works for you coming up.  I’ll get this bus back on track.

Centre Street Style is once again teaming up with LE CHÂTEAU on Saturday, October 25th from 1-4pm at LE CHÂTEAU’s location in Chinook Centre Mall, in Calgary, AB.  All of you local fashionistas can come by and view the latest collection, get inspired for fall and say hello.  I’ll be there from 1-4pm to give my expertise and personal style advice to all of those who stop in.  This season is all about boots and coats, and LE CHÂTEAU has you covered, literally, for both.
But this time it gets even better, I’ll have a $200 LE CHÂTEAU gift card to give away to one lucky shopper who stops by.  See you Saturday ladies!

Fall is by far my favourite fashion season, and with chunky sweaters, skirts with tights, and abundance of layering options, truly, what’s not to love?  I ventured into the newly opened Nordstrom with some of my main ladies, and came away with this fabulously cozy sweater.  There are so many ways to wear sweaters this fall, but my fav may just be with skirts and booties.  I have a feeling that this piece is going to be on heavy repeat this autumn.

I love the idea of mixing casual with fancy.  The juxtaposition of the two is always fun to bounce off one another, and let’s be honest, sometimes the idea of a completely fussy outfit is too much to get through the day.  Pairing my intricate rosette skirt with a casual sweatshirt meant a mix of comfy and classy, and that’s a combination I’d be more than happy to don again.
