Animal Obsession

Pet Names _ fall landscapeToday marks the first sighting of snow for me, and though it didn’t last long, or stay on the ground, the fact that winter is about to hit the city of Toronto, is a frightening thought.

During the winter months, I turn to fashion to keep moods cheerful, both mine and my peers. Sometimes a playful print or bright colour can do magic to change someone’s perspective on an entire day. Animal prints are always on trend, so recently I stole my husband’s dress shirt on an extremely stressful day, which is covered in simple illustrations of Dalmatians. The playful print was the perfect comic relief to what could have been a long and daunting day.

Do you have any prints or colours that you wear to lift your spirits?

Fail-safe Favourites

You have favourite things for a reason. Music, food, entertainment or even lipstick colours, whether it be because they may taste good or they look pretty, we all have our own set of preferences that change and grow with us. Our wardrobe is like that too. We pick our fav T-shirts, jeans and shoes usually because they fit the best or are the most comfortable.

Something that I recommend for everyone to figure out is their own favourite trend. Something that can help define your wardrobe. It could be, black and white, florals or nautical, for example. Look for something that is a classic, yet an always updating trend, so you can always have something that looks current, while being able to add a new piece to spice up the look. This will help ease some pressure to find new trends each season.
