A Little Nautical

Jeans: RACHEL Rachel Roy // Jacket: Similar Here // Purse: H&M // Shoes: NIne West //

       I bought this jacket years ago at Winners and I constantly get compliments on it. I like when jackets make a statement, so don't be scared to opt for a jacket or coat that is a bright colour or has an interesting cut. Royal blue is a colour that matches just about anything, and I pretty much consider it a neutral. Outerwear too often ends up being monopolized by black, white, nudes, and grey tones and it can get a little repetitive. 

      I LOVE white jeans and I think everyone should invest in a pair for summer. They look so crisp and fresh, however check to see how thin the denim is, you don't want your fuchsia pink panties showing through and stealing the show from your super hot outfit. 

      My shopping tip of the week is to add more colour to your wardrobe, try choosing something bright and fun for summer. I just picked up two really cute tops from Dynamite this week that are spicing up my summer wardrobe, and they're budget friendly if you're saving money for a summer holiday (you can find links to the tops I just bought Here and Here). Happy shopping, XO

Orange you glad its finally summer?

Dress: Similar Here . Here and Here // Purse: Rebecca Minkoff (on sale here) // Shoes: Jessica Simpson // Sunglasses: Urban Outfitters // Watch: Burberry

Ive had this dress for a few years now and its one of my favourites. I especially love it this season where a bohemian vibe is making waves through stores and festival wear is a staple in all young women's wardrobes. Im not one for short shorts and crop tops (even though I think they look so cute on everyone else) so I think I'll stick to floral maxis and wide leg jeans for now. Happy Shopping, XO

      For those of you who don't know me personally, I just completed a Science degree from the University of Manitoba with a focus in textiles, and my convocation was on thursday, HOORAY! For the ceremony I picked out this blush coloured floral embroidered dress from my favourite local boutique Poppie. I have a tendency to choose dresses with this silhouette because they are super feminine with the full structured skirt and it balances out my upper and lower half.

      This weeks shopping tip is to think ahead about what works for your body. Next time you're shopping try a few silhouettes on and find which styles work the best for you. I know for me I generally don't look great in a shift dress or anything that doesn't have a defined waist. We all have certain things that look great on others but not ourselves, but once you find what works for you it will make shopping a whole lot easier and a whole lot more fun. Happy shopping friends, XO
