Summer loving’ man. I’m ready for ya. Enter the peasant top. Its been around for years and years, and season after season it reincarnates itself into our wardrobes. Made popular in one of my favourite decades- the 70’s- it was worn by many icons, from Ali Mcgraw to Jane Birkin. Its easily transitions from jeans, to a skirt-…
DetailsWhatever man, it’s apparently never going to be summer here. Sweatshirts and boyfriend jeans on Summer Friday afternoons. At least I can look cute while being cold. Thanks CHRLDR. If you don’t know you Pheobe Philo is….well….we no longer can be friends. Jokes. But for real, the woman is a genius and her style…
DetailsSummer has finally arrived, which means getting ready is a breeze. Throw on your sun dress, flip flops, let your hair down and smell the flowers. Of course no summer outfit is ever complete without a pair of sunnies. It’s the ultimate accessory and the icing on your #ootd. I had my sights set…
DetailsAs my sister can tell you, I pretty much live neutrals, blacks and whites. She’ll be happy to see this post and the pop of colour! I got quite a few nice comments around the office today about this little emerald #, so maybe I’ll incorporate a little more colour into my wardrobe. Big talker,…
DetailsFirst off…apologize for the quality of these photos….but I didn’t have my camera on me and a good outfit cannot be wasted. iPhone quality ain’t that great though…any recommendations of a phone that takes better pictures? For the days when you are just so fly that it needs to be documented at any cost.…
DetailsThanks Kim K, and the rest of the Kardashian Klan for wearing so many two -piece body-hugging outfits that I’ve finally become a victim. I gotta say though, it is pretty flattering for the booty girls like me. I didn’t buy these two pieces together, but I a quick scan of my wardrobe and…
DetailsLadies and gents, there is a little sum thin’, sum thin’ I wanna get off my chest. The other day I was trolling the internets…as I normally do, and there were a ton of articles and pics of Miss. Selena Gomez on vacay looking mighty fine. Unfortunately these articles weren’t centred around how mighty fine…
DetailsThere has been a ton of hype around the sister product of this moisturizer for years now. Hydraluron serum has been in my beauty arsenal for a while. It’s light, it works and it’s a no-fuss, science based, fast acting product. Enter the Moisture Jelly. Although it has a similar consistency, I like it even…
DetailsA little #tbt to my post last week: I’m Not Over It. I couldn’t resist- once I hit “Public” on that post- I just knew I was going to order myself a pair. Since this is such a statement piece and a trend, I didn’t want to drop hundreds, so when I…
DetailsOn the same theme as the overalls…it’s all about the 70’s this season. Next up, fringes. My favourite way to interpret this trend? Well very specifically that’s the midi fringe skirt, what a beauty. So versatile and fun. You can wear it with gorgeous heels or Stan Smiths, causal or dressy- you can’t go wrong…
DetailsWho says you can only wear a little bling bling around your neck. Ever since these Balenciaga booties hit the scene a few seasons ago, I’ve been eyeing them. I wasn’t about to drop 8 gazzlion dollars on them. When I spotted these beauts at Zara, I couldn’t resist. They are cut all the way…
DetailsWhen I saw this shirt, I just could not resist, since I graced the world with my presence in 1984. Not only is the fit incredibly computable, but I love the graphics and the artwork. Since I was born in 1984: below are 25 questions to get to know me a little better:…
DetailsCurrently obsessing over flared overalls. The 70’s are back in a big way…make room for fringe, bell bottoms, bell sleeves and platform shoes. Below are some of my favourite ones this season, the best part is that if you’re feeling naughty and a little brave you can skip the top and wear it alone. How…
DetailsWhen the boyfriend is out of town………I raid his closet. My boyfriend is 6’3″ and there are VERY few things I can borrow from him….if anything. But a little tuck here and a rolled sleeve here, and I made it work. I personally own about 1 pink thing…maybe two if we count a bra. But…
DetailsIf there is any tool I would recommend above all the rest, it’s the Beauty Blender. The most versitle tool in my make-up arsenal (and believe me, it’s a dresser full) and the best. Take it from me, I wear quite a bit of make-up on a daily basis, and it feels and looks…
DetailsSo apparently the first day of Spring was March 20th, I guess someone should have sent the memo to Montreal, because we never got it. Its been non-stop snow, so my spring wardrobe is going to have to wait it out a little longer before making an appearance. However that doesn’t mean that I can’t…
DetailsAlthough there are wayyyyy more intense ways of mixing prints (think plaid and floral)- this is a little more subtle and easy. Stripes and Leopard print- so chic. A few tips when mixing prints: 1. keep is simple. there is no need over accessorize. 2. size matters. mix small and large prints together. Smaller on…
DetailsSome things ever go out of style, and some things disappear right away (hello…haram pants!) Take for example a super soft turtleneck, pinstripe trouser and the absolute cult classic- Chuck Taylors. I love mixing street and classic wear together, puts my own spin on it and I can still look meeting ready while being myself. …
DetailsTodays post- NORMCORE. The…I tried so hard to look I didn’t try at all. I was going to rack my brain and write a blog post about this trend, but Urban Dictionary does a pretty bang on job of describing it: “Oh, shee-it! You just got gang signed by the worst of ’em! Y’see the…
DetailsThere are a few things I can’t live without….or should I say feel completely NAKED without…..foundation, my watch, and WINGED LINER! I’m sorry Mrs. Conrad (or should I say Tell)- but I didnt hop on your band-wagon her err, I have been leading this parade for a while. At the moment I am loving Kat…
DetailsThis is my outfit from last Friday. SEe- I had a few business meetings, followed by some organizing, and basically getting my shit together. So what’s t girl to do? Well, I figured- it’s simple. Just put a blazer on top. Now- as it happens my adorable sweater actually says “Casual Friday”, so the…

Doesn’t seem that winter is going anywhere. Feels like I’m living in a snow-globe most days, although the novelty is starting to wear off. The key to not freezing your buns off you ask? LAYER, LAYER LAYER, and yes…probably add another layer on top of that as well. And don’t worry about the over-size, looking…
