Vest + Tee + Jean Skirt + Sneakers + Statement Necklace = The Perfect Mom-On-The-Go Outfit & Tres-Chic Fashion Thursday Link Up

I absolutely love this outfit. I’m always looking for new ways to wear a simple t-shirt. As a busy mom, I tend to gravitate towards jeans and a t-shirt with either a blazer or cardigan. The other day I decided to spruce up a simple grey t-shirt with an olive vest, statement necklace, jeans skirt and converse runners. It was a chic, yet simple and most importantly comfortable outfit. I want to be comfortable when I’m running errands, especially when I’m with my son, yet I also want to feel good about myself and stylish.

What’s your favourite mom-on-the-go outfit?

T-Shirt & Jean Skirt (Gap). Vest (Banana Republic). Necklace (J Crew). Sneakers (Converse c/o The Bay). Purse (Fossil c/o The Bay). Watch (Michael Kors). Bracelet (Stella & Dot).

Floral Dress 4 Ways

This dress has very quickly become one of my favourites and everyone else’s. I have never received so many compliments as I have as when I wear this dress. I recently wore it to a blogger event and to our Family pictures. Great hit everywhere. So today I’m going to show you four great ways to style this amazing dress. It’s the perfect dress to transition into Fall. Wear it with booties and a denim vest, or booties and a blazer for an evening look. You could even wear it with tights, belt, boots and cardigan for Winter.

Favourite Summer Outfits

32 Replies

New post today!!!!! Woo Hoo!!!!!!!! If you follow me on Instagram, yesterday you got a sneak peak into today’s post. Since Summer still is in full swing here, I wanted to recap my favourite looks and items of the Summer. I owe today’s post to my wonderful husband, who made breakfast yesterday so I could blog, before we had to tackle some chores, shopping and a bbq at a friend’s place.

By far my favourite purchase and most beloved item of the Summer has to be my denim vest. At first I was reluctant to buy it. Wasn’t sure if I would get enough use out of it. Was I ever wrong!!! I wore it so much. It’s such a great layering piece over anything: dresses, skirts, shorts and the perfect completer piece. On Saturday I wore it to the zoo with shorts and a tank top, again can be seen on Instagram.

The next item that I couldn’t get enough of is dresses. Long or short, I wanted to wear them as much as possible, considering all I pretty much wear in the Winter are pants. Definitely my favourite style of dress is the Maxi dress. It’s elegant, simple, light and easily dressed up.

Shorts were also another favourite of mine, especially my cuffed denim ones and my printed ones. As you can see, a theme is emerging with my Summer outfits: denim vest!!!!! Like I wrote earlier, I just couldn’t get enough of it. Again like with the dresses, shorts also have a short life span here in Vancouver so I tried to wear them as much as possible. I loved wearing them with a top and blazer.

Last but certainly not least I can’t forget to mention my love of skirts. Over the years, I’ve acquired quite the collection. The sample below is only a fraction of the skirts I own. I love pairing them with a tank top and some bling. One of my favourite outfits, turned out to be one that I had never worn before. My striped skirt with a sleeveless polka dot blouse and my wedges. Sometimes experimenting pays off. I’m looking forward to wearing this combination more next Spring/Summer.

Which one is your favourite look? Gotta say it’s a tie between the polka dot blouse and striped skirt and my tulip dress and denim vest.

May this blog inspire you to experiment with what you have in your wardrobe. You’d be surprised at the outfits just waiting to be created.

Looking forward to showing you all my favourite Fall trends. You can follow me on Instagram to see my daily outfits, see what I’m up to and get sneak peaks into my favourite Fall trends.

Polka Dots and Stripes

32 Replies

I was inspired for this outfit by the wonderful Tara from Mix and Match Fashion. She styled a striped skirt with a cute sleeveless blouse. It gave me the idea of styling my red and white striped skirt with my sleeveless polka dot blouse. I don’t wear this blouse much and I’m trying to find new ways of styling it. I love how the outfit turned out.

Flower Power

Today’s outfit is courtesy of the classic combination of black and white. You can’t go wrong with that combination. Summer is still in full swing here and I decided to wear a polka dot t-shirt with a white skirt, my J Crew flower necklace and for a hint of colour, I added pink wedges. I’m trying to get as much wear out of my Summer clothes as I can, because in a few short months, I’ll be back to wearing mostly boots.

Maxi Dress Altered

34 Replies

Here’s the story behind this maxi dress. I bought it last March from Old Navy and I was in love!!!! The colour, fit, style, everything, I just loved it. The problem was that it showed a bit too much cleavage for me. Not sure that showing so much cleavage would be appropriate for a play date. I wore it a few times, even tapped it so that it wouldn’t show so much of the ladies, but whenever I wore it, I felt self conscious. So finally I took it to get it stitched so that way I wouldn’t be so paranoid whenever I wore it. I’m so glad I did, because now I can finally wear it. Remember ladies if something doesn’t fit, get it altered!!!! It’s worth it. It only cost me $2 to get it fixed!!! You can see where it’s been sowed together, but I don’t mind because I feel more comfortable wearing it this way.

Dress (Old Navy). Necklace (My Name Necklace). Bracelets (Stella & Dot). Watch (Michael Kors). Sandals (Aldo).

May this blog inspire you to get your clothes altered to fit you properly. I feel so much better wearing this dress. I’m no longer paranoid that I’m showing too much cleavage and that my ladies will hang out.

Seersucker, Yellow & Pink

44 Replies

I’ve been wanting to wear this combination for a while now and on Monday I decided to go for it, even though it was hot. I figured I could get away with wearing a blazer in the morning, before it got too hot. I don’t wear this yellow top very much, even though when I do, I love it. Anyways yesterday I wore it with shorts, statement necklace, seersucker blazer and my pink wedges.

Blazer (Gap). Top (Jacob). Shorts (Reitmans). Necklace & Wedges (J Crew). Bracelet (Stella & Dot). Watch & Purse (Michael Kors).

May this blog inspire you to wear those things that hide in your closet more often. Try different combinations, you never know what will work.

Striped Maxi, Denim Vest & eShakti Giveaway

Thank you everyone for the birthday wishes. I had a wonderful birthday weekend. I’ll post more about it on Thursday.

The weather has kind of cooled down so yesterday I wore my maxi dress with a denim vest. It wasn’t cool enough for a jacket, the vest was perfect. So the next time you’re finding that you don’t want to wear a cardigan or blazer, try adding a denim jacket to your outfit. It’s a great way to change up your look.

Vest (Old Navy). Dress (Gap). Purse & Watch (Michael Kors). Necklace (My Name Necklace). Sandals (Aldo). Bracelet (The Bay).

I Feel Pretty & Style To Inspire Link Up

33 Replies

I wore this outfit last Wednesday and I’m not sure but I felt very pretty wearing it. I’m not trying to sound vain, but it did. I think it’s the colour of the skirt and how you can twirl in it. I felt very feminine, girly wearing it. Anyways do you guys ever wear something that makes you feel pretty?

Patterned Shorts 3 Ways

38 Replies

When Summer arrives, I can hardly wait to pull out my shorts. One of my favourites is my pink patterned ones. The pink is a nice soft shade allowing me to pair it with many things. Try wearing it with a tank top and denim vest or a graphic tee and jean jacket or a t-shirt and blazer. Other great ways to wear it would be with a Chambray top, button shirt or light weight sweater. You could also try adding heels, wedges, flats or runners to change things up. Below are 3 ways I like to wear my patterned shorts:

Style it with a tank top, denim vest and sandals

Vest (Old Navy). Shorts & Tank Top (Gap). Necklace (My Name Necklace). Sandals (Aldo). Purse & Watch (Michael Kors). Bracelet (Stella & Dot).

Style it with a graphic tee, jean jacket and runners

T-Shirt (J Crew). Shorts & Jean Jacket (Gap). Runners (Converse c/o The Bay). Purse (Banana Republic). Watch (Michael Kors). Bracelet (Stella & Dot).

Style it with a white t-shirt, blazer and wedges

Shorts & Blazer (Gap) T-Shirt & Wedges (J Crew).

Below are 4 great options for patterned shorts:

1/ 2/ 3/ 4

Patterned shorts are a great way to spruce up your outfit. The key is to keep the top simple. You can take a colour from the shorts and feature that colour in the top, like I did with my graphic tee. The key is to play around with it. Try mixing patterns, adding a vest or jacket, accessorizing. Have fun with patterned shorts. You don’t have to be afraid of them.
