In Between with Black & White

BW.JPG

This outfit is perfect for this transitional season - it has just the right blend of the upcoming fall trends with little hints of summer ( ahem, white denim ) and in my opinion you can never go wrong with Black and White. Keep scrolling for all the outfit details.  

The Top

BP. Ruffle Cold Shoulder Top

Originally US $49.00 CAD $ 63.63 Now: US $24.49 or CAD $31.80 50% off

This top was an instant winner for me at the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale and a key transitional piece. Its fabric is light and airy with a lovely floral print. I love the details trending this season including the key hole neckline, the soft draped ruffles and the shoulder baring sleeves.

The Jeans

Forever 21 Contemporary White Denim

USD $15.90CAD $22.90

I decided to pair this outfit with white denim even after labour day because I feel like it can still give this outfit a chic edge in these transitional days from summer to fall – and I mean who needs those rules anyway. The pair featured are from last year at Forever 21 but the ones linked are the same contemporary line and have a similar material blend.  These also have raw-cut slits at the knee which I happen to love so they will likely end up in my cart and at my door very soon.

The Details
·        71% cotton, 27% polyester
·        Machine wash cold
·        Inseam: 29.5"
·        Waist: 26"
·        Rise: 10.5

The Sunglasses

QUAY AUSTRALIA 65mm Aviator Sunglasses in 'Needing Fame'

US $55.00 CAD $71.43

These aviators were the most recent purchase of Quay Australia sunnies and they have become the only pair I want to wear. They elevate every look I pair them with and I love how over-sized they are for soaking up the last bit of summer sunshine.

The Details
·        Item #5242679
·        65mm lens width; 14mm bridge width; 140mm temple length.
·        100% UV protection.
·        Polycarbonate.

The Bag

SOLE SOCIETY Mikayla Faux Leather & Suede Satchel

I was on the hunt this fall for a carry all black bag with suede detail and although the one shown is sold out from the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale the graphic pattern on the one mentioned below is almost identical with similar faux suede patches, top rolled handles an optional shoulder strap and a deep, lined interior.

The Shoes

HALOGEN® Corbin Slide Loafer in Black Leather Black Suede

US $89.95 CAD $116.81

These minimalist, mule-inspired profile slides are absolutely striking and sophisticated. They are comfortable and easily transition from work to date night. I also love how the faux suede and leather mimics the bag – what can I say when you love something so much why not do it twice in one outfit.
