These Boots Were Made for Walking

So apparently, these boots were made for walking because all the shots I liked from this outfit shoot were ones where I was mid-strut. I usually like to get a little more variety in the shots I share with you guys but we’re just going to have to work with what we’ve got. I clearly can’t get enough of these Aldo booties! They’ve quickly become a favourite of mine since they work with so many looks. The best part is that they are super comfortable, I’ve walked in them for hours before my feet have started to hurt. Definitely would recommend them!   Continue reading →

It’s safe to say that I waited too long to post this look since it’s gotten so cold here. But hopefully, some of you live somewhere where you can still get away with a similar outfit. If like me, you are somewhere where it’s clear that fall is in full swing and that winter is on its way you can still pull off a similar look. You can easily make this outfit more cold weather appropriate by adding a few layers. I really like the simplicity and effortlessness of this look. I think it’s great how a few basic pieces can be paired together to create an easy trendy look. Continue reading →

Fall is finally here!!! We’ve already talked about why I love fall and fall fashion so much (if you missed that convo read it here). But this fall, I have even more of a reason to be excited for the season thanks to Place D’Orleans‘ “Fall for a Fabulous Find”campaign. Place teamed up with myself, Alyssa Beltempo, Emily Smith and Erin Elizabeth and challenged us to style our best head to toe fall outfit with pieces we could find at the mall. I was so thrilled at this opportunity because of course I love a good fashion challenge and Place is somewhere I go to quite often since it’s in my area, and did I mention that I love fall fashion!?  Continue reading →

Hey guys! Happy labour day weekend! I’m heading to a cottage this weekend to enjoy the last bit of summer. But while I wait on everyone else (I’m usually the last one out the door but not today #winning) I thought I’d quickly share with you these outfit shots. About two weeks ago the lovely people at Krowd Magazine asked to feature me in their street style section and of course I said yes! I met up with one of their awesome photographers Odusi Oladimeg downtown here in Ottawa, Continue reading →

Who’s ready to go back to school!? Are you raising your hand? No? Me neither. I used to like going back to school when I was in high school, hmmm actually make that elementary school. Back to university just marks the beginning of stress season, all nighters, eating terribly, looking like a zombie with unwashed hair…should I go on? As much as school can be a complete and total pain, I always try to remember how lucky I am to have the opportunity to go to school and how valuable education is. Continue reading →

Hey guys! In my last post,I shared an outfit with you that I styled for Bluesfest. Like I mentioned last time, it was my first time attending the festival and I had a blast!! My favourite shows were Belly (surprisingly), The Red Hot Chili Peppers, and Nelly. I would’ve definitely added Drake to that list had he shown up as the surprise guest at the Future show like the rumours were saying. I’m not even going to go into that because the disappointment was soooo real *ugly cries*.

A couple of weeks ago my lovely blogger friend Katie of Yow City Style contacted me for a festival fashion collab. She challenged me to style my best festival outfit with pieces I could find at the Bayshore Shopping Centre for her take over of the Bluesfest fashion instagram account. For those who don’t know, Bluesfest is a 10 day music festival here in Ottawa that features a range of different awesome artists every summer. This year will actually be my first time attending (for my Ottawa people I know I’m crazy! I’ve lived here Continue reading →

Beyonce O’Clock

Hi everyone!! I know it’s been a while since I’ve posted. I’m not even going to explain myself and go into it because I’ll be doing it every time I post it seems. I hate these huge gaps between my posts but I swear there’s just not enough hours in a day! Every time I say that, I remember a meme I saw once that read something like “You have the same amount of hours in a day as Beyonce”. I think this meme is supposed to be motivating but it really isn’t. Like let’s not forget Beyonce is an A-list celebrity with  Continue reading →

Hey guys! How are you all? Anyone else suuuper excited that it’s finally actually looking like spring here?! Mother Nature has been playing us lately with last minute snow storms, freezing rain and fake sunshine, but finally the temperatures are climbing. Still, the day I wore this look was one of those days where you look outside and a huge smile spreads on your face because your like OMG sun!! Then, you step outside in a cute (not winter appropriate) outfit and proceed to regret all the choices you made. I was fooled by the sun. It was cold af, but I wasn’t about to let winter win so I carried on in the cold (but really it’s Continue reading →
