Time to get back to business. As much as we are still soaking up the last hot summer days, it’s time to shift our focus to the days ahead. Planning our return to the office, to routines, to regular workouts, to our to-do lists, to school, to making long over-due dinner plans..to making things happen again! And to anticipate the most loved season of fashion...welcome to early Fall and the Polished Return!
Here are some of the key fashion pieces we are recommending to make your return as polished as possible, with a great start to building your Fall 2025 wardrobe.
Step up in shape-enhancing silhouettes
A cool, classic pinstripe blazer with a modern twist. Say hello to The Salot Blazer with Belt: the cinched waist blazer with flared-out shoulder is a refreshing update that transforms a closet essential. This sculpting silhouette will not only be seen in jackets, it’s a fresh, modern shape found on dresses, outerwear and vests. Pair your blazer with the Salot Trousers for a can’t miss structured look that easily takes you from the boardroom to date night.
Footwear we are obsessing over
Loafers are the flat shoe style cool-girls are wearing right now. They are polished without feeling stuffy and effortless without being too casual. The Fias Loafer in black patent leather gives off subtle luxe vibes and can be effortlessly worn with straight leg jeans and a white tee to wide leg trousers and a chunky sweater for office days.
Sneakers are always our energy as they work seamlessly with so many looks whether you are in the minimalist mood or want to go for the bold. Our current faves are the retro-inspired Back 70 Streetwear, one of the newest brands at the boutique. Crafted in Italy from genuine leather, this luxe streetwear style is perfect for that cool, vintage vibe and available in on-trend taupe and burgundy as well as classic black.
Stacking Statement Jewelry
Bangle Bracelets are the ultimate here and now accessory, and can be worn alone but why not add layers and stack them up with two or three! These bracelets make any outfit look pulled together and purposeful. It’s time to roll up your sleeves and show a little arm candy shine in chunky resin styles or mix & match with gold band bracelets.
Wear your Stripes
It’s true, the classic striped pattern is always around and in demand, but we are also loving the current stripe silhouette that has been re-mixed to oversized fits like the Idris Half Zip Sweater in ash or navy stripe. When you want a sporty girl moment, pull on a rugby shirt like the Colchique Pull or the Kendi Sweater. Style with a maxi skirt for an unexpected outfit win!
Top Fall Colour Trends
The colours that are dominating and in-store now will give you that polished foundation for all your outfit styling. Gorgeous grays, rich maroons and warm chocolate browns work beautifully alone and combined together. Choose gray for a more refined, luxurious aesthetic. Burgundy tones always offer an elegant, preppy look & feel and chocolate brown is the It Girl neutral shade of the season. Earthy brown shades are worth embracing and worn for everyday and any night out.
Denim Days & Blue Jean Nights
A great pair of jeans is your closet best friend, a year-round staple but hot weather often sees us reaching for lighter fabrics and flowy, airy pieces. This is not the case for Fall, when denim is your go-to choice time and again for a polished daytime look and transitions you to an elevated evening vibe.
Now is the perfect time to refresh your denim and the selection is fabulous. While wide leg and lower rises will continue to be standouts, there is a fresh new update that we are loving (and no it’s not skinny) it is the cool, classic straight-leg style that has never really gone away. The Baretta Relaxed Straight & Lexi Mid Rise Bowed Jeans are easy to style with all your footwear and every top you can imagine, plus pairs amazing with all your sweaters and an oversized jacket.
As far as washes, for that sleek, refined aesthetic, the clean dark indigo wash will be everywhere and you will want in. The ‘Fit we can’t get enough of is the Canadian Tuxedo featuring dark denim from head to toe with Gentle Fawn’s Whitney Denim Button Down Shirt and the Amara Wide Leg Jeans. You could call this a sophisticated double double if there ever was one.
When it’s time to transition back to the rhythm of work, school and busy schedules, our transitional wardrobe pieces open all the possibilities a new season does with polish, style and versatility.
