A long long time ago (1900s to be precise), the rule of wearing white after Labor Day came into effect. Although I have heard many stories as to why wearing white after Labor Day was socially unacceptable, all stories identified this trend as a way to differentiate the rich from the poor. Today, as cultures…
Transitioning Outfits to Fall
Fall is such a beautiful season filled with color and change, and this past week, we have definitely felt the chill swoop in! Although we may be ready for the cooler weather and the amazing trends coming in, we may not necessarily be willing to let go of our summer outfits, or showing off our…
One T-Shirt, 5 Outfits – Collab with Coolbyassociation
During these past few weeks, I’ve had the opportunity to meet a cool crew of Montrealers working on an amazing t-shirt company called coolbyassociation.

What to Wear to Work in the Summer: Pants and Culottes
Regardless of how much I love dresses and skirts, there are some days where all I want to do is wear a comfortable pair of pants or culottes so that I can feel great while staying focused. Seeing as I have spent most of my winter in pants, this may happen rarely, but like everyone…
What to Wear to Work in the Summer: Skirts
If last week’s post was great, but dresses aren’t your thing, this week’s focus on skirts for the office might be the post for you! As fun as summer is when it comes to getting dressed, the office still remains a challenging place, as you need to dress within the realms of the business chic…

Obsessing Over Florals
One particular trend that I have been absolutely in love with this season is the floral trend. From dresses, to shoes, to pants, and everything in between, I have jumped on the bandwagon in full force and can happily say that I’ve got a bit of everything incorporated into my wardrobe.

Getting the Groove Back
This Spring has been particularly rough on me. In addition to the crappy weather we’ve been living through, I haven’t felt quite like myself lately. Gaining a significant amount of weight, aging in general (I see the wrinkles settling in), and dealing with a heavy workload while taking classes for personal development, finding time to…

Sometimes, when the occasion is casual, but I still feel like dressing things up, all it takes is a good pair of heels and a pretty top to make the look match the mood. Yesterday was no exception! After a full day of running errands, I decided to “pretty up” my ripped Dynamite Clothing jeans…
