Be mine: cozy pom-pom feminine sweater for Valentine’s Day

February 10, 2020

Confession: I actually really like Valentine’s Day.

I’ve always looked at is as a day to celebrate everyone I love – friends, family and fur-babies alike! Because honestly, sometimes everyone needs to be reminded they are loved and appreciated, am I right?!

Call me basic, but I also love Valentine’s for all of the themed stuff. Everything is pink (aka my favourite colour), heart shaped and filled with feminine touches. And of course, you can’t forget the candy!

Conversation hearts are among my favourite. So much so, that last year when they weren’t available in Canada I had some of my American friends buy them and ship them to me! It was expensive, but totally worth it.

Meet weekend-mode Kait: leggings, hoodies and bad hair days (oh my!)

November 10, 2019

People who know me well know that I have two modes: a) the version of me you most often see on my blog and social media channels who tries to be fashionable, and b) the version me that is in super casual and comfy clothes, such as leggings or pjs – aka how I spend the majority of my time.

This post is about that second version of me.

So much of what we see on social media these days are the highlight reels, and I am no exception to this fact. There are days where as soon as I’m done shooting content my make-up is off and I’m back in sweats. There are also days where I don’t even bother to leave my pyjamas. If I’m being totally honest, these are my favourite days.

It’s also the first thing I do when I get home from work too – toss my hair up and throw on some comfy clothes!

DIY cozy winter hats with removable pom-poms – Cricut iron-on

February 26, 2019

When it comes to coats, especially winter parkas, I always try to find ones that are in fun colours. I was really bummed out when my mustard yellow winter parka needed to retire and I had to buy a new winter jacket this year.

I searched high and low to try and find a jacket in another fun colour, but despite my efforts I couldn’t find anything that wasn’t black, white, grey or burgundy. (Is it just me or are there too many jackets in the same boring colours?!)

I ended up picking up just a plain black parka and after my initial sadness wore off I realized there is a bright side to having a neutral jacket – accessories.

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.
