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.

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.

Jumpsuits for transitioning your wardrobe from Summer to Fall

September 17, 2018

If you’re anything like me, you always struggle a little bit with figuring out what to wear this time of year. It’s technically Fall (ok, not quite yet but it will be as of September 22), it’s still hot outside and all you want to do is wear your fall clothes, am I right?!

Jumpsuits are my new favourite item for this time of year. Why you ask? Well, the fabric can be pretty light weight so even though they are length pants, you’re still not overheating on those hot days that we always seem to have until October, making them the perfect fall-fashion item. They’re also easy to layer up with a faux-leather bomber or jean jacket if it does get a little chillier at night. They are also the most comfortable thing in the world, I swear.
