As Vancouver transitions from a long hot summer into a cool crisp fall, we at Balsam Beach Studio took it as an opportunity to try something different as well. On a whim, we decided to get away from the city and reunite with nature. The turning of the leaves and early autumn sunset made the perfect backdrop for our fall horseback riding adventure.
Without fail, we all arrived in longsleeve T-shirt dresses and floppy wool hats- essentials for any autumn outing.
...ultra long sleeves, perfect layering piece to cozy up with tights, leggings or jeans
The departure of summer doesn't have to mean saying goodbye to your favourite breezy tank top. Layer a Longsleeve T-shirt dress under a Y-back Drape Tank and ride those gypsy vibes into the fall.
"Gypsy Soul" Y-back Drape Tank
...a drapey oversized sleeveless tank with a crew neck collar & finished hem, with copper foil "Rock My Gypsy Soul". Great for over a Bandeau, Sweet Tank & layered with a cardigan ;) One Size fits most.
Try something new this season whether it's going on a wild adventure or something as simple as wearing your wave skirt as a fringed circle scarf!
...a waistband-less skirt worn low or high, rolled down, or as a hood or a scarf with hand cut fringe in the shape of a wave.
Our resident equestrian expert, Liv layers fringe on
fringe, following this season's 1970's trend, all while perfectly coordinating with her horse.
...a seventies boho-gypsy inspired hand cut fringed wrap/shawl/scarf for all seasons, this
fairytale fringetastic piece tops off any outfit, whether over Longsleeves, a bikini, or a Cowichan Sweater, paired with some
Sweet Harriet Jewels ;)
At the end of the day we said goodbye to our horses with our hair a little messier and our smiles a little wider, grateful for the opportunity to bring out our inner cowgirls. It's only October so we can only imagine where the autumn winds will take us next time!
