since i teased you by mentioning the new betina lou fall 2013 collection in yesterday’s post, i figured i might as well share it with you! fall is creeping up on us and, as always, it’ll be here before we know it. and there’s something kinda fun about that back-to-school time of year when all of the stores have folders and crayons on sale. brings me back to those days when i would lay out my outfit the night before the first day of school. and while i’m still trying to collect clothes to keep me through the summer, it’s kinda fun to start planning for fall. and i just love the subtle mix of tartan and deep dark shades in classic silhouettes and luxurious fabrics like silk, boiled wool, and viyella cotton in this timeless collection.

oh internet, how i love you for constantly introducing me to new designers! my most recent discovery came in the form of the betina lou fall 2012 collection. this montreal-based designer launched in 2009 with a timeless aesthetic rooted in menswear and inspired by female icons of the past. the result is a very wearable collection with classic pieces that mix and match perfectly. and the easy styling is so spot on for this season with that little brown beret and that casually tied neck scarf. the online shop hasn’t launched just yet, but you’d better bet that i’ll be first in line once it does!
