    riva del garda

    The largest lake in Italy is a lovely place to be, and though it is very touristy I have not seen or heard any other North Americans here. My boyfriend (Kelly) came to Riva Del Garda for 1 day on a bike trip and fell in love with the lake, Aperol spritzes and the sunshine.…

  • scandinavian minimalism

    scandinavian minimalism

    I have noticed since being in Denmark that most of the women and girls wear all black, all the time. Not sure if it’s just the town I’m in, but there isn’t a whole lot of colourful clothing, patterns or florals here! That paired with the modern ikea furnished apartment we’ve rented inspired this simple,…

    greetings from denmark

    After a long (18 hours!) day of travel yesterday, we are settled into our Airbnb apartment in Helsingor, Denmark. It’s colder here than in Vancouver and so windy, but beautiful. It’s a smaller town and doesn’t seem to have many tourists this time of year, but I think would be very busy in the summer.…

  • date night

    date night

    This is what I wore last night for an impromptu date night. Neither of us felt like cooking, so I got into this flowy dress and out of my work clothes as fast as I could and we were off to Cactus Club. Home and in bed by 9:30pm. Why do days feel so long…

  • suede this season

    suede this season

      I’ve talked about the 70’s trend before here but suede is probably the most understated way to work the look into your wardrobe. Though it’s a delicate material (unless you cheat with faux suede like I did) it is less tangly than fringe, less Coachella than crochet and doesn’t make me feel like I’m in…

    how to wear athletic slides

    I have been seeing nike or adidas slides all over the place, and love how something so casual is fashionable and can be worn in such a different way than I’m used to. For years I was always the most dressed up, wearing heels and skirts when everyone else was in leggings and t-shirts. Now…

    simply simple

      Clean lines and basic pieces can be easy, versatile and stylish. As I begin to pack for my trip, I am visualizing a whole suitcase full of simple looks like this one I can mix and match or transition from day to night. I always pack too much, and never even wear half of it.…

    nike free

    I have been thinking about buying these shoes for what feels like forever. I love the way they work in a variety of outfits to make your look more sporty and causal. I also work out in a old, very bright pair so I know the fit and feel works for me. I have been…

    what to wear between seasons

    The weather today was all over the place. Sunny, rainy, hailing even. Nothing like the glorious days of sunshine we had earlier in the week! It is on days like today I am at loss of what to wear. Always the optimist, I tend to be underdressed. A friend in Toronto once described our shared…

  • athleisure

    athleisure

    Athleisure is a recently coined term to describe the wash of athletic clothing in every area of life. Wearing typical workout clothes for everyday pursuits may not sound ground breaking (particularly in Vancouver) but it is growing in popularity. Probably because this look is so comfortable to wear!
