tweedledee

probably my absolute favourite fall trend is the chanel-esque tweed jacket (available by the arm-load at zara or your local thrift store). you can throw it on top of jeans and a t-shirt for a bit of a dressier denim look, pair it with pajama trousers for pattern overload, add it to a dress for some warmth at a fall dinner, pile it on top of black tights and a skirt for some colour in an adorable collegiate ensemble... i could go on and on.

boys' club

yet another infallible fall staple is throwing a blazer on top of pretty much anything. add a pair of super trendy shoes and you're good to go.

meet: andrea, a second year communications and multimedia student, as well as a designer for her own clothing line! you can see some of her fabulous pieces here.

shoes: shoedazzle.com

bag: zara

sweather

continuing on with the theme of fall favourites is the big, backwoodsy sweater... warm enough to wear without a jacket, looks great with leggings, jeans, or really anything, and cozy enough to curl up in and tackle all the studying that's piling up.

meet: shannon, a first year life sciences student (they are really trendy this year!).

her personal style: "i'd generally call it vintage punk."

sweater: value village
boots: steve madden
