There is something to be said about gloomy grey days, and the lack of need to wear sunglasses, but rather my prescription frames that I simply adore.
When I wake up to a weather report that calls for a cool and cloudy day, I get excited at the opportunity to wear my glasses, before dreading the idea of leaving my bed. I drive into and out of sunlight during my daily commute, so unless it’s going to be overcast, it usually easier for me to wear contact lenses and sunglasses.
I picked out these Ray Ban frames at ClearlyContact.ca, and I absolutely adore their flirty shape. The cat-eye styled frame looks amazing on so many different people, and has really become one of the top style for glasses. I find that being able to style different glasses allows for your to change your look so easily. Recently, I’ve been recommending to all of my friends lately to buy two different pairs of glasses, something basic and another pair that’s more bold, fun or daring.

During the winter months, I often resort to the most practical shoes, ignoring all of the amazing “works of art” that I’ve acquired, as I want to keep them as safe from the snow and salt as possible. We get so much snow here in Toronto, that turns into gross slush that when mixed with salt is like shoe kryptonite. As the season winds down (hopefully) keep your eyes open for more practical shoes that you’ll be able to wear throughout the season. Buying them on sale and taking care of them with the proper shoe care sprays will allow you to feel more carefree when walking in the snow.
These amazing boots are by the British label Kurt Geiger, which has an amazing sale going on right now!

Sitting here, freezing on a Monday night I can’t help but picture a few weeks ago when my husband and I road tripped from Toronto to Miami—with a stop over in Nashville. We drove for a total of 60 hours (including the time around Miami) and 5534 km (3439 miles) while playing old school car games and singing to the radio, Jay Z and Les Miserables (we just saw the production). It was an amazing 10 day escape with my love, and can’t wait to plan our next adventure.

I love wearing all white in the winter. It’s truly a bold look and perfect for the holidays. For an easy holiday outfit, pair a simple dress with different accessories. This time I’ve gone with natural fibres, but imagine this with a dark statement necklace, or glammed up with some diamonds and pearls. I think it’s important to start planing for the holiday parties ahead. This is a pretty crazy time of the year, and one less thing is, well, one less thing.
