  • {STYLE: sparkly thrifted finds}

    You can call it part luck and part eagle eye but I’ve come across some pretty awesome finds on my thrifting expeditions lately. I realized that I have a little bit of a theme going with lots of gold, black and sequin…perfect for new years eve! Check out some of my recent glittery finds. And…

  • {STYLE: In love with winter}

    I love the snow. Sorry if that makes you cringe. But frankly I don’t think we get enough of it in the city. I can say that now that I don’t have to drive 45 minutes to work every day. I couldn’t get enough of the big snowfall we had this past weekend, it gave me…

  • STYLE: red hot lips for the holidays

    Do you have a holiday party this weekend or some big new years eve plans? The holidays are that time of year to embrace red lips, even if you’re not usually that adventurous in the lip colour dept. Personally I love to wear red lips all year round but they are definitely a holiday signature…

  • {ETSY LOVE: cozy & cool handbags}

    I came across one of these bags from the Sudrishta Etsy shop and it was love at first site. Now I’m not sure about how deep your pockets are for shipping costs from Turkey, but we all do crazy things for love sometimes. And if you happen to be an expert knitter, maybe this will…

  • {STYLE: accessorize for fall Part 2}

    Here’s Part 2 of my fall accessory bonanza from Aldo Accessories. Part 1 was a bit more funky and edgy in comparison to these looks that are more of a fall & earthy colour palette. My closet is full of these colours and it was a ton of fun to find matching accessories. How great…

  • {STYLE: accessories for fall}

    Don’t let these few days of chilly weather fool you. It’s still fall. You’ll have months to bundle up for winter but now is the time to take advantage of that time when you can get away with a really great sweater & scarf. I go a little crazy for accessories sometimes, especially the new…

  • {STYLE: in love with keeping warm}

    Even if you’re more of a summer person, you can’t deny that one of the best parts of the weather getting cooler is the whole world of outerwear and accessories. Sure flip flops & a sundress is easy but it’s not nearly as fun as a hat, scarf, gloves, knee high socks, leggings and most…

  • {STYLE: fall fashion on the streets}

    Fall is my favourite season for fashion. The colours, the layering, the scarves, the knits, the boots…love it all. It’s also brisk enough that you need to cozy up but not so freezing that you have to bundle up like a huge, shapeless snowman. Here’s some great street style to inspire you with your fall…

    And here’s part 3 of 3 of the everyday vintage style series I did in my neighbourhood of Kensington Market. I saved the most ‘out there’ piece for last.

    Everyone is itching to get into fall style. I’m usually kinda lazy when it comes to changing my purse/bag but there’s something about fall that makes me want to change it up. Here are six fabulous tote bags for fall. Hmmm…someone sure likes the look of a leather strap.  1 / 2 / 3 /…

    This is a first of hopefully more vintage style posts coming your way. As you may have picked up if you follow along, I have a love for almost all things vintage. I’ve always been drawn to those people with great vintage style and didn’t realize that one day I would have a closet full…
