Black Cherry

Pants: Zara // Sweater: Club Monaco // Shoes: Aldo

What happens when it's too dark out but you're kinda into the pant/sweater combo? You take blurry pics in a garage. 

Pink Stigma

Pants: Mango // Blouse: Club Monaco // Shoes: Christian Louboutin //Sunnies: Rayban

White blouses. Black power suits. Grey trousers. Three "must have" items in a career woman's closet and repeated wardrobe. Is colour unprofessional? Can wearing feminine colours in the office be a career killer?

I refuse to believe that women have to dress masculine to be able to climb the corporate ladder. If Elle Woods taught me anything, it's that pink and corporate success are not mutually exclusive.

Prep In My Step

Blazer: Club Monaco // Skirt: Club Monaco // Heels: Tory Burch // Blouse: My Mama

In 7 days, I turn 28. That only leaves me with 2 years to accomplish my "before 30" list. Thankfully, I don't have dress more mature on that list. There are a lot of things I can't stop from aging, but I'm going to hold onto the things that I can. For example, dressing like a prep school student and wearing more than one item that has a bow on it. I'll take crow's feet over boring style any day.

Pantone 2016: Rose Quartz and Serenity

Not so breaking news: Pink and blue are no longer reserved for nurseries. 

For the first time ever, Pantone's colour of the year is actually TWO colours: Rose Quarts and Serenity. The perfect combination of pink and blue pastel shades and I ain't mad at it. I have been obsessed with pastel shades and I am all about this combination. So clearly, I was going to take it as an opportunity to pair these two hues together in one outfit.

Every girl has that too short, too tight dress hanging in their closet that was purchased in a "I'm gonna rule the world" whim. Then you realize you're 27 and if you can't wear it to work then it probably also won't go with your sweats which means it'll never get worn. That's when you know it's time to get creative and just throw on a skirt over that dress and call it a day! 

What's even better? It's also a built in slip for that slightly sheer skirt. Wam bam thank you ma'am.

Sometimes you just need a little reminder that everything will be ok. And athough wrinkles worry me, I can't help but smile when I look down and see this bracelet. So while other people may opt for the "breathe" wrist tattoo, I'm more than happy with my Gladia bracelet :)

Choker - Splurge Boutique - here and only $6!

There are a lot of things that I am into in this outfit. I love pairing heather grey with light pink. It makes me feel like a bunny and I'm all for it. The Ariana Grande inspired hair is definitely supporting the bunny vibe. 

The colour palette combined with the high waisted skirt and top is also giving me a Kardashian vibe. Not the version of Kim Kardashian who wears weird unflattering items because they're "fashion forward" but the immediate post-Kanye Kim who was all minimalist and cool. You know the one.

And lastly, I have been obsessed with chokers lately and this one is only $6! How can you say no?!

What celebrities inadvertently inspire your outfits?

Tropical Mom

Do you ever put on an outfit, look in the mirror and just aren't sure whether you look put together or just missed the mark? Today was one of those days. I just wasn't sure whether it was a summery take on the office pencil skirt and top or whether I should just looked like a mom on vacation.

A Day at the Boulevard

If any of you follow me on instagram (if you don't.. what are you waiting for?!), you would know that I recently came back from vacation. Leaving the then snowy Halifax, to the Spring-like Jordan to the hotter than hot Dubai, it felt like I experienced all 4 seasons (and countless falafels and shawermas) in 2 weeks. While the temperature changes (and most likely shawermas) took a toll on the body, there is one thing I wouldn't let it affect - the outfit!

Here's a look at an afternoon stroll at the boulevard in Amman, Jordan.
