Faux Fur

Scarf: Topshop // Jacket: Jones New York // Purse: Tory Burch 

      Two years ago I made the mistake I know we have all made before and bought a wool coat I wasn't really that into. Needless to say it has sat in my Hall closet collecting dust since then....until, I found this amazing faux fur scarf at Topshop while I was visiting friends in Vancouver. An accessory like this one is the perfect way to make an old piece feel new again. Also, if you are the more budget conscious shopper there are other ways to jazz up your winter coats, if you've had a coat for a long time you can do something as simple as go to the fabric store and buy new buttons, which can give the jacket a mini face lift until you can afford to buy a new one. Happy shopping (even if its just for buttons), XO

Gray in the garden

Jacket: Vintage // Dress: ASOS // Bag: Tory Burch // Lipstick: Lise Watier- Cassis

  I am obsessed with this vintage coat my grandmother gave me, the fur is so soft and luxurious I just cant get enough of it. This gray midi dress was an amazing buy because it has a mix of a few different styles and therefore can be worn in multiple situations. It has a vintage feel because of the length but then modern and funky because of the jewelled neckline and lace raglan sleeve. This dress could even be paired with dressy earring and bracelet for a night out, or with a cardigan and worn to work depending on how dressy your workplace is. The best part about clothing that has any kind of detailing at the neckline is that it eliminates the need to find the right Jewellery to match the outfit, a pair of studs is more than enough to compliment the outfit in most situations. Obviously I am still toting my trusty Tory Burch bag, see the link above for details about this bag and how to purchase. Happy shopping XO,
