{Style} The Great Outdoors...

Well my friends, it's finally happened — I've officially been roped into camping. Now I realize this may be a pastime many of you hold dear, but I'm honestly freaked out by the thought of it... Although to be fair, that may have something to do with all the Slender Man I've been watching lately, but still. So this weekend while you're are having fun gallivanting and sleeping on comfortable surfaces, think of me sleeping with one eye open and a kink in my neck... Oh the things we do for love.

Happy weekending friends, and don't forget to vote for your favourite blogger (me?) on Forever 21's Facebook page! xx

{Nailed It} Manicure DIY Roundup...

I love nail polish as much as the next girl, but lately it seems like there are more nail trends and jazzy Pins out there than I can keep up with... Man it's tough being a girl. Because I need constant reminders of things I want to try or need to do (believe me, it's a never-ending list), I decided to put together a roundup of my top five nail trends to try (helloooooo, watermelon wraps!). Hopefully this inspires you to jazz up those digits of yours, but if nothing more, it'll help keep me accountable when I deviate back to my standard red, black or neon polish... You guys keep me so honest.

1. Watermelon wraps by Scratch, $12
2. Vintage-inspired florals via The Beauty Department
3. Geometric pastels via Pshiiit

5. NCLA Ikat nail wraps via Pshiiit, $16

Orange You Glad It's Spring

Happy Monday!  I hope that you all had a great weekend and Mother's Day!  I wore this outfit on Saturday to dinner and the movies with two of my blogger loves Daniela and Nadia.  We had so much fun and I tried Venezuelan food for the first time :)  I ended up shooting this yesterday and it was so beautiful out!  My mom and I got a little camera happy because we loved the location and lighting :)

Jacket: Forever21 (shop here)/ Floral Jeans: C/O Charlotte Russe/ Shirt: H&M/ Shoes: Love Culture/ 

Bag: H&M/ Necklace: C/O Happy Wrist/ Sunnies: Ray-Ban(shop here)


My love for moto jackets is now equal to my love for blazers.  They're just the perfect pieces for layering and are extremely versatile.  I fell in love with this orange one (fab color) and I also did outfit pics with it in Chicago (pics coming soon) so you will see another way that I styled it.  I have been gravitating more towards colored and printed denim because I just think they make any outfit stand out.  You can have so much fun styling them up too.  I got two of my favorite things in one with these jeans: floral print and distressed denim.  The rips are kind of subtle but they add just the right amount of edginess.  You will probably see me wearing these sandals a lot during the summer so I am warning you now :) I am hoping to get them in black too.  I added this statement necklace for a little POP and this white studded bag is now one of my favorites.

I have my first shoot from Chicago coming tomorrow and I am really excited to share the photos with you!  They're more on the artsy/creative side than my regular outfit shoots which I love.  It's always good to switch it up and show different sides.  Have a great day!

{Style} The Basics...

In a season filled with falling leaves, cheerful holidays and pumpkin-flavoured everything, you know what makes me happiest of all come September? Tights. And the more I have to choose from — be it colour, texture or both — the better. Grey is my tight colour du jour, mainly because it was the first pair I could find before rushing off to work, but also because it makes for a surprisingly versatile basic... Move over boring black hosiery; there's a new tight in town.

Caught in the Rain...

This week has been all kinds of dreary, which doesn't exactly bode well for those needing to take photos outdoors of say, oh I don't know, their outfits or something... So if you're listening rain, I have two words for you: how rude.

Happy Thursday loves, and wherever you are, I hope you're toasty dry... xx

Spring Fling...

There's just something about throwing on a bright, "check out my bad self" kind of outfit to pick yourself up on a on a blah day... And in my case, I spared no expense in achieved said brightness. From florals and a neon necklace, all the way to my burn-your-retinas bright dress, this outfit is anything but boring... After all, nobody likes a blah-ger.

Happy Monday, lovelies! xx

What I Wore:

Mr. AIF had to go to Toronto this past weekend, so I was left alone to my own devices... In other words, sweet treats, non-stop Golden Girls reruns and a much-needed nail painting sesh— What can I say, I lead a glamorous life.

Happy Monday, lovelies! xx

Fall-tastic...

If you're anything like me, you like to get the most possible mileage out of your clothes... Call me crazy, but I see no reason not to don a summery little floral number in mid October! Especially when such marvels as cardigans and tights are available to transition a piece from one season to the next. Just saying.

Happy Tuesday, my sweets! xx

Sunday School...

Hi all! I hope everyone is well and enjoying a nice, lazy Sunday...

What do you guys think of this outfit? I bought the dress at Zara last fall (remember?) and hadn't worn it since, but Victoria's gloomy weather inspired me to put it back into rotation... After throwing on the hat, belt, bag and shoes, it took on a vintage, "Sunday school" kind of vibe, but I decided to go with it anyway... Not exactly a look I strive towards, but one I'm willing to play with every once in a while. Hey, if it was good enough for Laura Ingalls, it's good enough for me...
