If you’ve read my post on spring trends, you’ve probably noticed that I included a section on wearing pearl adorned pieces, and how this has been pretty big this season. Seeing as I have always been a fan of pearls, I did not shy away from jumping on this bandwagon, without overdoing it of course.…
What to Wear to Work
For those of you who are just getting to know me, let me explain my day job situation. I work in an office, in sales. The dress code is not the same as a bank, but it is not casual either, which means that, aside from our casual Friday, no jeans are permitted. No rules…
Suede for Spring
Living in Montreal means you are used to heavy snow and freezing cold throughout most of the winter months, but this week was too much, even for us. Just as it was getting warmer, and the grass was starting to show, mother nature pulled a fast one on us and dumped 40 cm of snow…
January/February OOTD Favs
For those who live in Canada or any other Nordic country, you may understand how I feel this week. We went from a balmy and rainy 12 degrees Celsius, to a frozen -27 degrees Celsius overnight. The first part of my week was exciting and motivating. It meant that spring was here and that I could…
Running Errands While Looking Put Together
I’m a big believer in the statement that wearing jogging pants out of the house means you have given up on life… Except when your jogging pants are really just as stylish as the rest of your wardrobe of course. Basically, I make an effort to leave the house looking put together, no matter where…
Canadian Winter Dresses
Typically, a Canadian winter consists of long and cold weeks where the sun rises once you get to work and sets about the same time as you leave the office. By the time February rolls around, you are buried deep in snow, and freezing your butt off because you’ve just lived through a month long…
Dresses and Turtlenecks
For those who grew up in the 90’s, such as myself, the trend of layering any type of shirt under a strappy dress brings back so many pleasant memories. The fact that this trend has been back in the forefront of the fashion world since this past summer has basically meant that I got to…
Casual Friday : Flatforms and the Canadian Tux
A trend that has recently been back from the 90’s, and that I never thought I would sport again is the Spice Girl era “Flatform”. Now, to be honest, being 30+ years old, I did hesitate for a bit as I did have a worry that I would look a little…”retro” and maybe a bit…
2017 Challenge: No Winter Shopping
Every year, around this time, after having paid the post Christmas credit card bills, I also take a moment to re-evaluate my “shopaholic” budget. Believe it or not, I do actually set money aside so that I can indulge in my love for clothing and shoes. Especially the shoes… This year, seeing as I have…
Starting 2017 Off on the Right Track
When a new year starts, people take the time to create resolutions so that they can either work on improving themselves, or change something that they are unhappy about. As for myself, I do not start my year off with a resolution, but I immediately like to set the tone from day 1 as to…
