Notice how I always refer to weather when I start my post? That’s because us Montrealers don’t really have a choice but to dress according to what mother nature dishes out. Last night was no exception. Friends and family got together to celebrate a beautiful engagement, and the cold and rain was not going to…
We’ve been lucky enough to have a day and a half of beautiful weather in Montreal this past weekend, and I made sure to take advantage of it as much as possible before the rain came back. One of my favorite trends that has returned is adding stripes to an outfit, so with the sunshine,…
I LOVE dressing up. Regardless of the occasion, I will find a way to make an outfit work. Now, seeing as I spend most of my life in work appropriate clothing, when it’s time to look for an outfit for going out, I get even giddier! I get to wear the pieces that I have…

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…
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…
