Summer Style: why you should invest in quality sunglasses

June 6, 2019

I don’t know about you, but I’m so ready for summer – if only mother nature could get on board! The weather has been all over the place here and some days seriously felt like winter. Luckily, it finally looks like it’s going to warm up this weekend and I can’t wait to get out my summer wardrobe.

One of my favourite accessories for summer is sunglasses. Don’t get me wrong, I know that wearing sunglasses in the winter is just as important as it is in the summer, but something about the start of the season always makes me want to buy new ones. I used to always buy 2-3 pairs from department stores, and it wasn’t until I fell in-love with a Kate Spade set a few years ago and I just had to splurge on them.

I knew I would love them, but I didn’t expect that they would change everything I thought I knew about sunglasses. I’m a firm believer that everyone needs to have at least one quality set of sunglasses.

Winter trends: the teddy coat

February 6, 2019

(Three posts in one week? I’m on a roll guys!)

As much as I hate winter weather, it is my favourite time of year in terms of style. I really do hate having to dress for the weather, but at the same time I’m all about oversized sweaters, tons of layers, boots and big jackets. If I could get away with wearing turtle necks and knit hats in the summer I honestly would.

I don’t know about you, but one of the winter trends I’ve been obsessed with is the teddy coat.I just love the cozy and cuddly vibes that teddy coats have – and now that I think about it, I guess that is where they get their name from.

Cozy winter style: it’s toque season!

January 15, 2019

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again – I’m the worst Canadian. I absolutely hate winter and the cold. Which is kinda a problem because being a Canadian our longest season is well… winter. And it can get pretty gosh darn cold in Ontario. (It’s -30°C this week with the windchill and it’s only the start of January!)

I’m someone who gets cold easily to begin with, so when you add winter to the mix I’m downright miserable… and so is everyone around me who has to listen to me whine about it ;). If it was up to me, it would be fall and spring all year long. (Anyone know a place where the weather is like that? SOS.)

I do however love winter fashion for two reasons, and two reasons only: toques and chunky sweaters. I’m all about those cozy vibes!

My favourite fall/winter fashion item: blankets

November 22, 2018

I don’t know about you guys, but we have been blessed with amazing Fall weather here in Toronto this year. We’re now in the second week of November and we haven’t had any snow yet! (I probably just jinxed it – sorry guys.)

I’m pretty happy about that for a couple of reasons: 1) I’m the worst Canadian and absolutely hate the snow, and 2) I’ve been so busy I felt like I barely got to do any of my favourite fall activities this year so the weather has me feeling like I have a second chance at fall before the Canadian winter settles in.
