Polka dot on Polka dot

One of my favourite things to do is to pick a print and invert it, in this particular outfit i grabbed this black and white polka dot skirt and paired it with a cream blouse with black polka dots. I don't know what it is but i think it creates a really interesting outfit. And as if there wasn't enough polka dots i grabbed this Kate Spade polka dot purse, its the same colour of polka dots but since they are significantly larger it is a bit more distinctive. Of course i had to break up the madness so as a pop of colour i tied this red skinny scarf around my waist.  I remember doing stuff like that when i was really young (like grade 6-7-8) we used them as belts... lol good times. i hope you all have a wonderful Monday ! :)

Sweater vest

Sweater vests have always been a favourite of mine, especially for the fall they are just so cozy without the extra warmth on the arms. Another thing i've been really into is denim skirts, this particular one will probable be featured 100 times this fall because i can think of countless outfits to wear it with! i love the A-line i think its so flattering for my body shape. it is finally getting a bit colder here in Toronto so i might have to switch over my closet to fall/winter at some point this month ! can't wait!

Preppy lace cardigan

If you've been watching my monthly hauls on Youtube (if you haven't! link to my channel here!) you'd notice that i've been buying a bunch of new things in different styles, in hopes to switch up my style a little bit. With that in mind i still love all the preppy/femenine looks and will always have a place in my heart.  I will obviously continue to throw in a bunch of preppy looks but i am grabbing new pieces that i wouldn't normally wear  and making them more me. i am really excited for fall and the colder wether so i can share with you guys what i am talking about! For this look i went for this pleated mustard coloured skirt and a white blouse. It is starting to get a bit chilly here in the mornings and evenings so i grabbed a cardigan that has this beautiful lace detail in the front. To bring that mustard colour back into the outfit i put on this mustard coloured necktie :)

TIFF 2016

On Friday night i attended TIFF (Toronto international film festival) and went to the premier for Colossal a movie starring Anne Hathaway and Jason Sudeikis. Colossal is a sci-fi monster film, and i can honestly say i have never seen anything like it before. It surrounds Gloria (Anne Hathaway) a party girl who moves back to her home town and reconnects with an old friend (Jason Sudeikis) after a night of drinking she sees on the news that a monster is attacking Seoul and destroying the city. The next day after coming out of a haze, she discovers that this monster is somehow connected to her. I won't give much away but there was a mix of action, comedy and a lot of emotion coming through both of the main actors. As for my outfit i went with this black lace dress from Zara [exact link here!] i think my favourite part is the ruffling on the sleeves and the neck. i've been really into shirts (and i guess dresses) that have those ruffles on the neck i think its an extra detail on an outfit as well as it reminds me of the victorian era (my favourite of course.) I also think the back is beautiful i love the cutouts, its like having an open back but not really. i also wanted to feature the details on the front part of the dress so i went with a low wavy ponytail with a gold crown headband. if you want to create a similar hair look look for those headbands that have the little teeth on the ends (not the elastic ones) and of course these big statement earrings and a gold clutch. Since the outfit was only black and gold i needed another colour so i painted my nails read (this is rare... i never paint my nails) and put on my favourite red lipstick! overall it was a great night and i can't get enough of this dress! 

Varsity jacket

Seeing all these kids going back to school inspired me to create a back to school inspired look. varsity jackets are huge right now and i am looking at getting myself a couple for the fall!  so naturally this being a back to school post and all one had to be featured ! This particular one is from Tommy Hilfiger (XS from the mens section haha) But a bunch of stores are staring to get them as well. i feel like i am in this awkward time in between seasons were my mind screams fall but the weather is still says summer. i can't wait to start posting some fall clothes, new things and charges are to come and i hope you are as excited as i am !
