Now is the time to start thinking about your holiday party outfits. No wait, erase that. The holiday party season is actually in full swing. If you don’t have a few more events to go to I am sure you are actively looking for your NYE outfit. The hardest part about holiday parties is figuring out what to wear expecially if you are trying to avoid wearing dresses at all cost.
Mothers are always on the go. In my case, I go from a work meeting to a beauty/fashion event to basketball practice at night. Those who follow my Instagram stories know how my life can be hectic. That means a comfortable, cute and functional pair of shoe is a must, especially during the cold winter months. Today, I am partnering with Keen Canada to introduce you to their fashion-forward Belleterre Collection.
A leather skirt is a go-to staple around this time of the year. Not only does it keep you warm, it’s also a versatile piece that is trendy and fashion-forward. While doing my weekly thrifting last week I stumble upon two brand new leather skirts from Danier. I was shocked to say the least because I never knew Danier carried any size over XL. Both skirts were a size US 24 but different lengths. Obviously they are not true to size but my luck because they both fit me perfectly. Read More »
Happy Tuesday Loves! The cool weather is finally here and I am so excited to finally layer up. I like to buy a few of my key Fall pieces during the sales that happen in the middle of summer, but this year I missed out. Thankfully, as we get closer and closer to Autumn new plus fall size coats drop every week so this procrastinator still has some time to get her coats. Read More »
Whether you’re counting down the weeks until sweater weather or hoping summer could hang just a bit more, it’s safe to say we’re now in that awkward, in-between stage. It’s hard to find something to wear because the weather is unpredictable. For instance yesterday Toronto beats temperature record at 32 degrees Celsius. So do not put away your summer clothes yet, instead try to be creative by mixing and matching or layering them with other lightweight pieces when the weather cools down. Some of my favorite transitional pieces are trenchcoats (black, and camel), utility jackets, lightweight cardigans, ankle boots, scarves, denim shirts, long sleeve dresses, white shirts, pretty printed blouses, flannel shirts, etc. Read More »
Is it too early to talk about Fall shopping? One, I am just trying to fulfill my blogger duties. Two, the heatwave we’ve been having as of late got me thinking about Fall. Today’s post is all about two pieces that I consider to be absolute essentials for surviving any Fall season: Cardigans and leggings. It may not be chilly enough yet, but it’s the perfect time of year to start adding some pieces to your wardrobe. Many of us missed out on the great deals of the Nordstrom sale but rest assured that there are still some good deals from other brands to grab now. Read More »
It’s been a while since I’ve posted a closet remix post here. Well, the arrival of IGTV kind of put me in the mood to start again. Filming a vertical video on my phone with minimal editing is a definite game changer. I know you guys love these posts because there is usually a look for everyone. The last time I was in the US, which was just 2 weeks ago I went to Target to pick up a few things. I was lucky to find this beautiful gingham top from the Who What Wear for Target collection on clearance. Since it was only $12 I picked it up with a few other pieces. Read More »
Happy Sunday loves! It seems like summer was here last week and all of a sudden It’s getting a little chilly again. I know I have not been blogging as much these past few months but trust me I am still working hard to create good content for you. In fact, my next post is going to be all about budgeting and saving. Yes, it has nothing to do with fashion or beauty but it will give you a little insight into how I manage my finances. Read More »
Do you ever feel like every time you blink, your kids grow an inch? My boys—Iby, 10, and Fadio, 7—have already outgrown the pants and shorts I bought for them at the beginning of the school year. With our vacation coming up, along with lots of family excursions to the museum, beach and amusement parks, I thought it was time to head to Marshalls to pick up a few trendy pieces for the boys that would mix and match well with their wardrobe staples. The goal was to create cute and comfortable looks that would work for all the summer adventures ahead of us. While I don’t believe in spending a fortune on kids’ clothing (they grow up so fast!), I do love to freshen up their looks every season. Marshalls is one of the best places to do that because it has new inventory every week and you can shop on a budget.
