    unbuttoned 

               Summer weather can be unpredictable and finding a lightweight layering option helps for the evenings or when you inevitably find yourself in an over air conditioned space. I actually bought this top as a shirt dress, but it found a good multipurpose use open over a tank and jean shorts. Sometimes wearing something a…

           I know spring is supposed to be  about renewal, but the big changes in my life always seem to come along in the summer. By the end of this month I will have some big changes at work, and finally end the lease on my apartment downtown. Selling my furniture, job contracts and officially…

              Another hot day in Vancouver and another breezy baby doll dress to twirl away the day in. I have been putting this look together a lot and it’s only the first week of June! I am not usually one to wear navy, but this dress with a 70’s inspired print caught my eye. It’s lightweight…

    denim cut offs 

                   Jean shorts are a summer staple. Dark, distressed, frayed, cuffed, high waisted or low, there is a denim short out there to suit every outfit and personality. I find I go towards lighter denim shorts and have always loved the unfinished hem on a pair of cut offs.  Pair with a…

    lbd summer edition 

               I like to keep it simple in the summertime, often choosing to just throw on a dress and call it a day. This dress is the same a-line cut I keep turning to this season. I like how breezy the loose shape is for summer and I feel like I can wear a shorter skirt…

    gladiators

            I have wanted a pair of gladiator sandals since I was in high school. My mom even almost bought me a ridiculously expensive pair my first year of university but I talked us out of it because I thought I would be over them by next summer.  You’ve heard me talk about how…

    how to stay fit on vacation

    I love food. Pizza being among my favourites, it is no surprise that on this vacation to Italy I have eaten more than my fair share. Combined with wine, pasta and relaxing all day, let’s just say I’ve been avoiding fitted clothing. Normally I am pretty active at my job (I spend 8 hours a…

    cross body

    I have been in love with the Celine Nano Luggage bag since I first laid eyes on it, however the price is a bit above my comfort zone.
