I’d like to dedicate this post to the fall that never really was. We had you for just a short time before you were gone, leaving us cold, grey and wet.
Read MoreThis year has been going by so fast, even though we're just a month into fall I feel like I've missed so much. Apart from the drop in temperature, fall is one of my favourite times of year. It's not really about the things that you can do in fall but rather a feeling.
Read MoreThis is the sheer joy of the season, the bright pumpkins and towering piles of multi coloured leaves.
Read MoreMaroon is the snugness of a wide brimmed hat and the joy of a thankful season. It's rich and full bodied a blood red wine and gold tipped nails. It's class and style mingled with the comfort of home. It's the laughter of good friends and the spirit of well being
Read MoreContinuing with my Fall Colour Palette series, I’m focusing on Navy this time around.
Read MoreI'm not sure about you but each season there are a few colours that I'm drawn to more so than usual. This yeah I've noticed that along with my usual forest green, navy and maroon mustard yellow has caught my eye. I'm not sure yet how I would style it but I like it. I think if done well it's a colour that you can carry forward in years to come.
Read MoreLike many of you, I wait as long as possible to pack away my summer pieces, just because it’s a lot of work and I dread it. Though I like fall fashion, I don’t like the rotation that has to take place. So to put off the summer exodus I’ve thought of ways that I can wear a few pieces that I loved in summer, in the fall. The 3 items I’m focusing on today are all dresses, but this can obviously be done with skirts and rompers.
Read MoreAccessories are a fun component of your outfit, depending on the shape or colour it can change your look up completely. For example in summer you can throw on a straw fedora and look cool and casual, while in the fall you can wear a rust orange floppy hat and look chic.
Read MoreI was surfing through pinterest and came across a colour board for one of the pantone 2016 fall colours and was inspired to try and see if I have those colours in my nail polish stash. It started with the nail polish and then moved to “I wonder if I have those colours are in my closet’ I pulled a few pieces that I felt matched the colours or were close to the colour. For some of the shades like Bodacious and Airy Blue I didn’t have much luck but for other’s like Lush Meadow and Riverside I had a lot of close picks.
Read MoreI love the colour deep green for fall, I think it started with my Kate Spade bag, and has spread from there. The colour seems to touch me inside emotional, not sure why but it just resonates with me.
When I first planned this post there were a few items that I knew I would have to purchase as I didn’t have them in a deep enough green like the chunky sweater and scarf. I did however have, multiple nail polishes and eyeshadows on hand because on an unconscious level I’ve just been drawn to this colour.
Read MoreSo summer has turned into Fall and with it the expected cooler weather. In this post I've chosen five pieces that have a distinct summer flair to them, but I've styled them so that they are appropriate for fall weather. I'm sure that many like me, want to hold on to Summer for as long as possible, Though I haven't officially packed away my summer clothes, I'm definitely dressing for fall weather.
Read MoreFall is upon us, I'm certain that by now you have rotated your spring/summer clothes and pulled out the thick sweaters and cardigans. I find that as much as my outfits my change day to day they still have the same components. The 7 items below, are my ride or die items, the absolute must haves for me from this list is my travel mug and my sunglasses. No matter the conditions, these two are always in my bag.
