I find it so fascinating how much styles and trend interpretation changes based on location.  Here in Vancouver, I’m always pulled towards a relaxed, casual style and, at the moment, a very neutral palette.  Which, has the benefit of comfort and simplicity, but I have to admit, gets repetitive.  While we were in Chicago, I mentioned to my sister in law that I was almost shocked by all the bright colour that everyone was wearing!  It was so fun and refreshing, and I left the midwest determined to ease some other hues back into my wardrobe.

So, the day we were leaving for the cottage, I raced to the mall looking for pieces that are easy to wear, but that have some colour and pattern.  I ended up finding a couple great frocks on sale at LOFT, including this dress.  I especially love how this piece will easily translate into the fall as well, it’s always a bonus when something can be worn cross-seasons!

What about you?  What is the fashion scene like where you live?

    Cities with neutral palette seem very chic, but… I just went through a trip to Belgium and Germany with my bright yellow rainjacket (it’s so cheery!) because eff it, the jacket makes me happy and keeps out the rain.

      YES! I adore yellow rain jackets so much, good on ya! You’re right, they’re just so cheery! Love that you rocked the bold colour in Belgium and Germany, I’m sure it made people smile 🙂
