Classic Pieces

Jacket: Banana Republic (sold out, similar) / Bag: Kate Spade (similar) / Boots: Franco Sarto / Watch: Michael Kors / Shirt: Banana Republic / Pants: Gap

Now that I have a grown up job and am almost done school, I'm slowly building up a more sophisticated wardrobe consisting of timeless, quality pieces. A classic cream wool jacket paired with black is an effortlessly chic look on a chilly and windy day. Also, I cut my hair! Inspired by the lobs of Lauren Conrad and Lucy Hale, I decided to change things up and donate my hair to the Canadian Cancer Foundation. I am loving the new 'do!

Happy New Year loves! I can't wait to see what 2015 has in store for us.

Fall Looks via My Instagram

Ladies, I feel like I've fallen off the blogging bus. I came home from Blogpodium feeling so inspired, but then I started to feel a little overwhelmed, and then a lot lazy after finishing my assignments.
I'm going to spend the week coming up with some really good content for y'all.

Today is my first day of Term 5 of my program. That's the first day of my 2nd Year already peeps. Crazy. I'm not sure what to wear but I am LOVING fall and fall fashion. Here are some peeks from my instagram of what I've been wearing lately:

 My top fall fashion go-tos:
1.Scarves
2. Big Knits
3. Animal Print
4. Black and White
5. Dark Lips and Nails

If you don't follow me on Instagram, you better be getting on that...
Love you guys,

Daisies for Days

Yesterday was a scorcher here in Toronto. To me it felt like the true last day of summer weather, and what better time to bust out my new daisy crop top? I also chopped the legs off a pair of high waisted jeans that I found at Good Will for six dollars. When I was a little girl I had a pair of daisy sandals that I loved - and I'm considering this top the grown up equivalent!

Consider this my farewell to summer! I'm going to miss you.
Couldn't you have at least left me with a tan to remember you by?

My Wild Side: Leopard Pants

Took my new leopard pants out for a spin this weekend and they are my new favourite clothing item.
They are so comfortable and stylish, I may never take them off!

Black Tee / Leopard pants / Lucite Clutch / Gold Chain Necklace (similar)  / Shoes (old)

 I also got my lucite clutch, and am LOVING it. You can see I've already gotten some wear and tear out of it. I'm still trying to get the hang of this outfit post thing, but they are so much fun!
How do you show YOUR wild side? We've all got one...

Party at Gatsby's

I finally went to see The Great Gatsby this weekend and I absolutely loved it - talk about glitter and glamour and fireworks! While I didn't find any sequin pants to wear to the movie (still on the hunt!) I did wear my new favourite sweatshirt!

 Sweatshirt / Earrings / Clutch (old) / Sunnies / Jeans (old) / shoes (old)
So in love. The Barista at Starbucks even surprised me by writing 'Old Sport' on my cup instead of my name. How sweet is that?
The Great Gatsby is one of my favourite books too (total literature junky here) so this sweatshirt is just perfection in my eyes.
Have you seen the movie yet? xo

My Style via Instagram

I'm no fashion blogger but I do put some effort into what I wear. I don't have anyone to take actual post photos of my outfits, but if you are curious about my sense of style you can always follow me on instagram! Here is a look at some of my recent spring looks:

1. I bought this dalmation dress from H&M in the fall, and I am so happy to finally get to wear it without tights. It looks so much cuter this way in my opinion
2. My pleated blush maxi skirt from Forever 21 is better than I even imagined.
3. Jewels from Love Obsessed...Can't wait to wear these beauties. Just need the right occasion.
4. All about the contrast with florals, chambray and jewels!

What are your go to spring looks? And don't forget to follow me on instagram! xo

Girl's Night and A Reminder!

Last night I hit up a swanky downtown restaurant in an old converted factory with my girls.
It inspired me to get a little dolled up and to share the look with all of you!

There was no one home to take my photo so I had to settle for a selfie!
Pair a sheer white blouse with semi high waisted black shorts. A spikey necklace like this one from H&M and a more feminine classic clutch (you may recognize mine from my bathroom reveal) creates the perfect balance between girly and edgey. Polish off the look with a sexy pair of black pumps.

If you like the look of my clutch from H&M, then you will LOVE the earrings I am giving away TOMORROW! That's right girls, you only have until tomorrow evening to enter!

Good luck!
What would you wear out for dinner with the besties? xo
