"I've now worn my first sweater of the season, and I'm mentally preparing to transition my wardrobe for the colder months; I'll even admit that although I'll be sorry to say good-bye to my sandals for another season, the promise of cozy clothes is some consolation." Read more about Cee's look here.

Allure Of Simplicity
Aney has shown us how to pair this white waistcoat with a summery pleated skirt, but here she pairs it with distressed skinny jeans -- a great way to carry this summer favourite into fall.
"A white vest or waistcoat is a great addition to any wardrobe. I have to say that this is likely my most favourite casual Friday ensemble because of it's opposite attributes. I love how the tailored and well-structured vest balances out the distressed, ripped denim so that it's appropriate for the office." Find out more about her look here.

La Belle Sirene
Courtney shows us how to style this fall army green muscle tee two ways. She pairs it with a midi skirt for a dressier feel that's perfect for warmer days. She also shows that it can be worn over leggings and layered with a long cardigan for cooler days.
"I saw [the tee] on a mannequin and knew I needed to have it for fall. It is the perfect shade of green that I feel like I can actually wear and it has a warm earthy vibe to it that I just love. It cost me $9.99 and I think it was worth every penny." Find out more about her look here.
