Today is Labour Day, the unofficial end of summer. Though, I’m not ready to be in layers, rather than laying on the beach, I am ready to reset my wardrobe and think of things in different ways. Before I do, I’ve been wearing my favourite pieces of the summer before I say goodbye to them-for what seems like forever. Here’s a look back at some of my favourite looks from this summer (in no particular order):
1) Office Appropriate – which is a great transitional look too
2) Wet Hot American Fashion
3) Rain Delay – which inspired this beautiful painting by the lovely Kyra Kendall 

Hope you enjoyed your summer! Thank you for spending it with Trevor, Monk and I <3

The strict weight restrictions of flying, often makes it difficult for an indecisive fashion lover to travel lightly. While at home, I try to plan the outfits for the trip, ensuring that I have items that work well together, and items incase the weather decides not to co-operate.

This dress is actually an amazing maxi skirt, that I brought to wear with a sweater during the cooler evenings while vacationing in Florida, but during this stunning day, it seemed to work better as an easy dress. Adding some sparkle with these beautiful Brides X BaubleBar earrings and an great heel, this is now a glamourous dress to take me anywhere.  See how I styled this skirt as a dress back in 2012!

Welcome back from the holidays! Sorry that I’ve been away from the blogging action, but I was celebrating a bit too much with family and friends, sipping and snacking the holidays season away. We will soon be back into the normal swing of things, I have put myself on heavy restriction, to purchase nothing new, (unless it’s a steal) and to save for my upcoming winter get-away. We are exactly 1 month away until we hit the beach, and the goal will be to spend less time in the mall, and more time at the gym, working off that last bottle of red, enjoyed with friends.

A yearly, New Year’s Resolution for me, is to live a healthier life, and 2014, I took up the lifestyle of juicing which has introduced so many more fruits and vegetables into my life. I also created the hashtag #onawalkwiththenegins, which allowed for my Instagram followers to join my husband and I (with friends) on our walks around the city with the goal to help you get outside.

In 2015, I hope to add some more physical activities to help with having better overall balance, and learn to cook meals, which will allow for us to save money and take control of what we are putting in our bodies. I hope the last bit of 2014 is magical and that all of your dreams come true in 2015! Thanks for spending so much time with me this year!

Maybe I planned my shopping list for fall better this year, or maybe, I just got lucky, but this season I’ve already fallen in love with my newest treasures from my fall haul. I searched for an easy-to-wear, oversized sweater and came up with a steal with this great knit from Joe Fresh. I’ve learned to achieve ultimate comfort, to go up a size. I was looking for unique, yet interesting jewellery, and found great treasures from Baublebar. And probably the hardest commodity to for me to choose each season are my boots, but that was simple with Topshop Canada.
