Having a  style blog and a keen eye for fashion I’ve developed my own personal style that is consistently changing. Along with each season’s trends, I adapt them each season to suit my style, which is typically filled with bright colours, bold patterns, and unique and timeless jewellery.

When making investments into jewellery, my theory has always been to ensure that the pieces mean something to you. I grew up wearing my birthstones, pearls, and have always been attracted to pearls designed into jewellery in really unique ways. For the past 4 years I’ve been wearing this pearl and happy-face bracelet by Nektar De Stagni everyday. For me it symbolizes my past and reminds me to be grateful and stay happy.

I just added my newest personalized piece of jewellery from Jewlr. This beautiful necklace makes getting the perfect piece of personalized jewellery super easy with both real and synthetic colourful stones or Swarovksi Zirconia crystals to choose from, and everything from silver to rose gold in metal choices, and the options to personalize it more with engravings. I’ve always wanted a name necklace and am thrilled to add more typography to my collection of one-of-a-kind pieces.

Fashion Magazine asked their style panel how to keep cool while wearing all black this summer. My go-to was this super cool black and grey playsuit from Topshop Canada. The oversized graphic floral print is so beautiful in it’s monochromatic colour palette. Here is what I said.

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!
