Florals during the spring is nothing new, so I’ve taken the challenge to try to reinvent, this beautiful, wheel.
Sometimes, two pieces from different collections, stores and even years match so perfectly, it’s as if they were straight off of Fashion Week’s runway. The pants and top both have accent colours in the other’s colour, making them truly a match made in heaven. Strong floral outfits can help you celebrate and embrace the warmer temperatures that spring has finally brought us.

While spring shopping, a piece I want everyone to pick up is a printed playsuit of some sort. I’ve been loving them since I wore a bright orange one last season. I find them beyond comfortable, if you can get over the whole getting nearly naked to pee, they are amazing!

This “polar vortex” that has taken over Toronto is awfully hard to work with. The cold temperatures are make photo shoots brutal… but oh the life of a style blogger 
When the temperatures dip, I tend to try to grab my favourite textured pieces like this velvet turtleneck. So basic in style, it adds a winter/glam/retro feel that I love. What do you turn to when the temperature dips?

Fashion Magazine has this great section of their website that is for their style panel. Readers ask questions, and Fashion asks us (oh yes! I’ve become a panelist!) and we give our answers. This week they asked us how to rock patterned tights. Read my post and all the other inspiring bloggers here.

Fall is here. *fashionistas everywhere cheer*
I feel confused when looking at the weather and getting dressed lately, it’s super cold in the a.m. and warms up, to be beautiful for the afternoon. This is our time to layer up with great knits, while still showing some skin. Keep the tights close by, but when you can I’d leave them at home, and rock a few last looks with bare legs, and even peep toes.
An easy way to ensure a powerful look this fall, is by going tone-on-tone. If one solid colour is too much, work in tones that work well together, like a forest green with a brighter one, or a pastel with more of a neutral shade, like army green and mint.

I’ve recently started working for The Hudson’s Bay Company as a graphic designer and it’s pretty unreal, to be honest! The Bay is such a great brand and I so excited to design for this Canadian Icon. That being said, I went from a casual dress work environment to a very corporate, and I must say I’m excited to rework my closet to create a more polished look.
Fall is one of my favourite seasons, and as the new lineup hits the stores, my heart and wallet skip a beat (thank g.d for the new job!). I’ve been decorating in Kelly Green for a bit now around my apartment, and when I saw these pants at Joe Fresh, there were really no questions. (Similar pants are available at The Gap, I was hours away from buying those to be honest.) Kelly Green works so well in my very collective style home and closet, matching almost any print, pattern and colour I throw at them.
And Plaid Magazine where I also work as an art director is now 1 of the 25 Magazines You Should Know in Toronto!
