ATLANTIC-PACIFIC X HALOGEN // APPAREL GUIDE
The apparel buying guide is here! Absolutely everything will be live at 12pm EST/9am PST tomorrow – but some styles may flow to the site just a bit earlier so follow along on instagram stories as I will be updating what is live with swipe ups. Apparel will be offered in sizes 0-18 and XS-XXL. Select styles will be offered in sizes 20-24 and 1X-3X. There will not be a petite offering of the collection this year. You can see all the stores that will offer the collection here, but please note that the stores carrying the collection will have select assortments. Not every store will have the full size range, colors, or styles. The complete collection will be carried online!
Also, if you are an international shopper Nordstrom does ship internationally! You can read more about the service they use and if you are in a designated shipping area here. Please note that for international inventory, Nordstrom uses a third party database and inventory is dependent on when the database receives inventory information; this is done overnight the day product goes live (so typically international customers would not see this product until the morning of 10/11). However, inventory may become available throughout the day on 10/10 for international customers depending on updates. Nordstrom is working to have inventory go live for international shipping as closely as possible to the 12pm EST launch date on 10/10, but most likely there will be some delay.
The collection will be true to Halogen fit and consistent with the fit from our collection last year. For reference, I wear a size 25 denim, size 4 in Topshop, size 0 in J.crew and US size 4 in ASOS. I wear a Halogen size 0 or XS and if you are in between sizes I would size down. Below, I am highlighting which styles were cut to be close to the body versus which styles are meant to be oversized!
I am trying to provide as much information as possible and be as transparent as I can – so please let me know if you have additional questions in the comments section below!
Bows! Bows! Bows! This button front bow blouse comes in a beautiful red and navy grounded plaid that match perfectly back to the organza full skirt and the suiting in the collection. The organza material has no stretch and is quite fitted so if you are fuller in the chest or have a larger cross back you may need to go up one size!
With a comfortable e-waist and peek a boo tulle hem, this skirt is both functional and fashionable. It is available in the same red and plaid as the bow blouse! The e-waist will fit similar to last year’s tulle skirts but the length will be slightly shorter than the black polka dot tulle skirt from last year!
This seemingly specific piece is quite versatile and can be worn open as a jacket or buttoned up as a dress! While the jacquard fabric is super luxe, the heart print is whimsical and fun. The sleeves are meant to be 3/4 length and the body to hit right around the knee. The length is perfect back to the matching skirt, but this coat is also adorable with the PU black kick flare pant! Fits true to Halogen sizing.
This jacquard skirt is knee length with the perfect peek a boo pleated hem. Meant to hit right at the knee, it is begging for a pair of bright tights, or better yet, the matching knee high heart socks. The skirt has a side zip and is true to halogen sizing.
A short sleeve flounce dress with three organza bows and a faux front placket?! YES PLEASE! This style is meant to be relaxed through the body and slightly more fitted through the shoulders. There is a convenient back zip and this style fits true to halogen sizing.
This bow cape is one of my favorite pieces in the collection. Double breasted and topped with two large, flat velvet bows at the shoulders, this piece is perfect over a dress, or your favorite sweater and jeans worn with a riding boot. The cape, being a cape, is meant to fit oversized!
FAUX FUR COATS // $229 (polka dot, house of cards)
These faux fur coats ARE SO FUN! They are meant to be slightly oversized, have two slanted slit pockets at wearers hip, and feature great hidden metal closures. The collar can be worn open as shown, or buttoned up around the neck for those super chilly days. I have a feeling that these will go fast!
We are bringing back the best selling floral dress from last year in these classic polka dot prints. The lilac and brown combo is my personal favorite and has beautiful metal painted buttons, while the black and while color way is topped off with pearl button accents. Both have a faux placket and back zip for entry and run true to halogen sizing.
A comfortable, yet fun pant for fall. This pant is offered in the black and white dot as well as red and blush. It has a tab front closure and two front pockets and comes complete with an adorable ruffle at the waistline. They pair perfectly back to the printed button down to give off the illusion of a jumpsuit! Runs true to Halogen sizing.
This style is an update to last years’ PJ top! This year we have a pointed collar and a more voluminous sleeve. These styles are not meant to be fitted, but run true to Halogen sizing and last year’s top.
PLAID BLAZER WITH FAUX FUR CUFFS // $199
A showstopper – this blazer is elongated, fitted through the waist, and comes with a self tie and removable faux fur cuffs. I love the play of the pastels off of this plaid! This blazer looks incredible back to the matching high waisted pants, but is also so chic with jeans or a great blush skirt. This style fits true to Halogen sizing.
High waisted, fitted through the hips and thigh, and with the perfect flare, these pants will be on repeat for me this fall. This style pairs perfectly with anything blush, but also is easily worn with all the neutrals in your closet.
Hi. This skirt is everything to me. A croc-embossed, pleated, midi item, that just makes my heart sing. At $139 it only looks expensive, and is such a great closet staple for the season. The brown naturally marries with more things in your closet, but the baby blue is an emotional color I just can’t get past! This style fits true to halogen sizing.
Camel and a baby blueish-grey, this double breasted, belted coat is one that will stay in my fall rotation for years and years to come. It is neutral, but is anything but boring. I have a feeling this one will go v v v fast tomorrow! This style fits true to Halogen sizing.
We brought back a favorite from last year, but updated the front closure (more buttons!) and switched out the color offering to a chic navy and baby blush. The fit and material is consistent to last year. This style is very fitted and the material is quite thick so if you are planning on layering a sweater under or have a larger bust I would go one size up!
This sweater is ultra soft and is meant to be a fitted, shrunken crew sweater! The neck opening is meant to be quite closed and body of the sweater is meant to fitted throughout the arms and slightly looser in the body, hitting about an inch below the top of your mid rise denim. These fair isle patterns came out even better than we imagined and make this piece the perfect apple picking, weekend cabin, foliage viewing sweater! Fits true to Halogen sizing but is meant to be more fitted/shrunken.
This is the pant that looks good on everyone! This pant is a stretch faux leather five pocket that is cropped with the cutest lil kick flare. We have these in black and tan and I swear I can’t stop wearing them. They fit true to Halogen sizing.
If you need fun suiting, look no further. This blazer is fitted through the arms, slightly elongated in the body and nipped in at the waist. It is available in bright red and baby blue. Wear this with the matching pants, color-block it, or simply wear it with your favorite denim.
These are a high rise, cropped kick flare that are quickly becoming closet VIPs for me. These styles go with so much in the collection – the novelty sweaters, organza bow blouse, or just back to the coordinating blazers. I am not much of a denim lady so it was important for me to work to create some amazing bottoms in this fall collection. These fit true to Halogen sizing.
Let’s say you aren’t into colored suiting but love a good suit. Enter this amazing assortment of plaid suiting pieces that you can mix and match. This peplum plaid blazer is slightly more cropped and fitted through the arms. It can be worn with both the cropped plaid pants and this great pleated skirt, plus with the hit of red in the plaid goes great with any of the red pieces in the line! This style fits true to Halogen sizing.
These pants are the same fit as the colored suiting pants and have the same, great horn buttons at the waistline and pockets! They are high rise, fitted through the hips and thighs, and feature a cropped kick flare (can you tell I am into the silhouette?) They fit true to Halogen sizing.
A knife pleated midi skirt for the win! This style sits at your true waist and is meant to hit just below the knee/at the knee. I have been wearing it non-stop with the coordinating printed plaid tights and plaid shoes for a true matchy-matchy situation. Fits true to Halogen sizing.
It wouldn’t be a true Blair collab without some tulle. This tiered top is meant to be voluminous and flowy! While it looks great with this skirt you can also offset the volume of the top with a more fitted pair of denim, or better yet, the Black faux leather pants in the collection! This is meant to be a more flowy fit but does fit true to Halogen sizing.
This elastic waist skirt will fit very similar to last year’s tiered tulle skirt. Meant to sit at the natural waist and hit at the midi length, this skirt can take you from fall all the way into the holiday season! This style fits true to Halogen sizing.
This sweater comes in an array of stripes as well as solids! It has a full, balloon sleeve, and it meant to have a fuller body that tapers into a more fitted ribbed waist. Soft, feminine, cozy, and colorful, just the way I like it! This style is meant to be more voluminous, and cinched at the wrist and waist, so it shouldn’t feel fitted.
This is a stripe repeat from last year updated in the ultra cool deep v neckline. This style is fitted through the sleeve, but is oversized in the body and elongated. It is perfect over skinny denim or leggings, so if you are looking for a fitted sweater this isn’t it!
Similar to the deep v this style is fitted through the sleeves and neck and oversized and elongated in the body. I love the combination of the cable and stripe in this style and the red/baby blue combo is SO. GOOD. I have also found myself reaching for the two toned brown that serves as the perfect neutral stripe.
A fitted elbow sleeve length sweater that seems to layer perfectly under anything! This lil number is the do-it-all piece in the collection that is easily mixed, matched and layered with so many pieces. This style is fitted and meant to sit close to the body! I’ve been having fun wearing these OVER some of the woven tops to create a new look with peekaboo sleeves!
INSTARSIA SWEATERS // $69 (mon cheri, clubs, polka dots)
Looking for a little quirky piece for fall that is well under $100? Look no further. These intarsia crew neck sweaters are fun, oh so comfortable, and only $69. We created colors that we felt would be the perfect styling matches to all the bright pieces in the collection. This style is meant to be a relaxed fit throughout!
An update to last year’s gold button pants, these have been recreated in a new fit and fabrication. If you bought last year’s pant, you will find this year’s is fitted through the hips and thigh with a great flare and done in a heavier fabrication. These fit true to halogen sizing.
This is a friend to the polka dot pants I introduced you to earlier (same fit) and serve as the perfect, more light-weight wide leg option for the season.
DOUBLE BREASTED TRENCH // $249
I love outerwear. But you already knew that. Meet the classic double breasted trench in three amazing hues. I love a double coat look and for this style I took my true size to wear over the shoulders with another piece of outerwear (such as a blazer). But, if I truly wanted to layer with more than a sweater under I would go one size up as this coat is quite fitted.
It is back. But new. This blouse from last year has been updated with organza bows and we brought her back in a new color way that is perfect for fall and holiday – black and white! I have fallen in love all over again!
