Pretty Spring Things

      Yay Spring is finally here! Well kinda here, Winnipeg is still fairly cold but I'm over winter and its time to talk all things colourful. During the spring and summer I always try to keep fresh blooms in the apartment to brighten things up a bit, Tulips are my favourite as you can probably tell because I have used them in almost every picture here.

      I bought this Royal blue neoprene dress from Club Monaco a couple seasons ago and its been a favourite of mine ever since, the silhouette is very flattering for women with a bigger bust because it balances out your frame and creates that perfect hour glass, that I know we all want. Neoprene has continued to be used for women's wear over the last few seasons and I cant even begin to explain how comfortable this fabric is. Neoprene is traditionally used to make scuba gear and has really good insulation so I would recommend if you live in a hot climate not to wear this material on a super hot day just as a heads up (you'll be a puddle by the end of the day)!

     Also, some of you have been interested in what you should wear on your feet when it comes to dressing up. Just because you're wearing a coloured dress doesn't mean that you need to wear black or nude shoes. Try to pick something colourful, but a colour that compliments the overall palette of the outfit. I paired the Blue dress with a pair of green heels for an extra pop of color!

      To all you big busted beauties out there, you have go to ASOS.com and look up there full bust bathing suits, I just bought this one and it came in regular bra sizes. Its the only place I have been able to find large size bathing suit tops that you can mix and match if your bottom half isnt as big as your top. Also the fact that these are as cute as they are is a major bonus, so go take a peak and pick out something fabulous! 


       Also, if you're  looking for a great tote or heading to a pool party this Kate Spade New York Black and white striped bag is the perfect summer accessory, found at Winners for $99.99!

Spring is in the air

      Winnipeg is starting to warm up and I couldn't be happier. All the other fashion bloggers I follow have been posting pictures of strappy sandals with freshly pedicured toes and bright spring colors and my envy is almost too much to handle. As most of you know I spend pretty much my entire life in a dress, and I have a lot of spring and summer dresses that I wear year to year but there are a few pieces that I am crushing on for when the snow melts. Each dress shown below can be ordered at ASOS.com

Mango Folk Style Dress

ASOS SALON Pinky Rose Bandeau Midi Prom Dress

Warehouse geo printed drop waist dress 


      Secondly, white jeans are a must, I don't love wearing shorts, and I find that sometimes I don't feel summery wearing jeans so this is the perfect alternative. Below are a few of my favourites
 Gap 1969 resolution destructed slim straight skimmer jean 
Topshop Moto 'Leigh" Distressed Skinny Jean (in varying lengths)


 All hail comfortable shoes!!! A big trend right now is runners, and you can see them being worn with jeans, shorts and dresses. It is so nice that runners are in style for women because we all know how much sore feet can ruin a good outfit. A pair of white converse will compliment almost every outfit you can think of, as well New Balance runners have been worn with outfits of all types for both men and women and they are hot hot hot right now! (both of these can be found at http://www.littleburgundyshoes.com/
