Ahhhh we are having such glorious fall weather here in Chicago…it’s pure bliss! Now that Halloween has passed, my mind is moving towards Thanksgiving and, of course, Christmas. While always a busy season, it’s a season full of blessings. I’m looking forward to all of the seasonal activities, family time, friend time, and the last of the outdoor walks before winter hits. …and of course, celebrating fall fashion the rest of the month.

Fashion Huntress tips:

1) This is my first pair of super wide leg pants. At first I felt a little daunted by them! How does one style such a wide leg and flowy pant? I decided by pairing the wide leg pants with a streamlined blouse and jacket, and a pair of heels. While I do think you could wear flats with a super wide leg pant, it might look as though you aren’t wearing shoes! So, I recommend going with a kitten or high heel. Also remember to look for a pant that is lined, given that the material is on the thin/gauzy side. 

2) Nothing says classy to me like a tweed blazer or jacket. Fortunately, they are really easy to come by just about anywhere these days. While I personally would love a Chanel version…that’s “a little” out of my price range (ha!). However, there are plenty of alternatives at thrift stores, Forever 21, H&M, Marshall’s, and TJ Maxx. Blazers don’t need to be super high quality unless you plan on wearing them every singe day. You can go for a mid range tweed blazer, and find that it elevates any outfit!

  1. tweed jacket + wide leg trousers = brilliant idea for a combo! and the colours are also just oh-so-autumn! i love your trousers, but as always it’s your shoes i’m drooling for. 😉
