Is it the change of the colours of the leaves Or is it the
taste of a warm pumpkin spice latte that makes it much easier to say goodbye to
summer?. It’s a bittersweet time of the
year, but as we transition into the fall season our style begins to change as
well. It’s a chance to ramp up our wardrobe and a perfect excuse for some well
deserve retail therapy. As I began to think about the upcoming season trends I
notice a common theme across some of the style reports in the major fashion
magazines – Boutique finds. I am very new to the whole boutique shopping experience,
mainly due to the stereotype of boutique pricing. But I knew I wanted to create
fall looks that incorporated unique pieces that not everybody has. So, I decided
to immerse myself into the world of boutique shopping. As I strolled down Eglinton
street West Village sipping on a cold Mango Fruit Punch Tea I came across a
trendy boutique called Sense Of Independence.
As soon as I walked in the boutique I notice the chic black and white
floral wallpaper with fuchsia accent walls and was imminently greeted by
Michelle – the boutique owner. If there is one thing that completely changes
your shopping experience is the aura that you get as soon as you step into a
store, and I was impressed to say the least. Sense of Independence carries stylish,
high quality and affordable pieces that are sure to make a statement. I’ve been
on the hunt for a drape wool coat and the perfect pair of boyfriend jeans and
of course I found exactly what I was looking for at Sense of Independence. I
was overwhelmed with retail adrenaline as I browsed through the clothing racks,
and was instantly falling in love with all the textures, patterns and fabrics
rack after rack. This season playing with textures and monochromatic looks are
in tend. I wanted to create three different looks that
incorporated plaid as a statement pattern piece, leather, suede and wool as my texture
pieces and a pair of boyfriend jeans to create three casual street style
inspired looks. To complete this three looks I choice to wear a pair of super chic black Steve Madden Booties , which transitioned perfectly with all three trends.I love the feeling of walking out from a store overly excited with your purchases and that’s exactly how I felt after leaving this trendy boutique. Get inspired this season at Sense Of Independence Boutique, shop online or in store.
