outfit

It seems silly, but I was really nervous to tie this button up around my waist.  Something I probably haven’t done since 1998, it’s a current look that I knew I had to try.  The verdict?  Super cozy and somehow still feels slightly chic.  It was a nice way to also work a Canadian tuxedo into the wardrobe this week because that just seems necessary every once in a while!  Hope you’re all having a wonderful day xo

I think that being back in an office is the perfect excuse to sport my favourite wide-leg trousers.  There’s something so empowering about walking around the city in a business casual attire.  Especially with sunglasses on and a coffee in hand.  Gosh, I missed it!

I’m about ready to retire these tights and take my winter jackets to the dry cleaners aka my favourite way to say au revoir to winter!  I am just itching to go shopping for pastels and florals and bright whites.  In fact, I’m heading to Robson Street tomorrow to do a little credit card damage.  I can hear Zara, Club Monaco, and J.Crew calling my name!

What spring trends are you excited for?

There was no way yesterday’s rain was going to keep me indoors again.  I had one of those hermit weekends where I sat on the couch for most of it and ate more chocolate than I’d like to admit.  I think we all need those every once in a while.  Adam was away on a guy’s weekend at the cabin, so when he returned yesterday morning, I threw on my favourite P L E N + Y basics and we went for brunch.  There’s a vegetarian place just off South Granville called Heirloom.  We hadn’t been in a while and I forgot just how delicious their food is!  Highly recommend.

After brunching, I made a quick stop at West Elm to purchase this lamp for my new office because, it was a must!  Then, we picked up my brother and the three of us drove down to Bellingham to see Brian Regan’s live comedy show.  If you don’t know his stuff, you can see his Comedians In Cars Getting Coffee feature here, and one of my favourite bits about flying here.  Don’t want to hype him up too much, but he’s hilarious!!  Enjoy 🙂

I think we all just need a little more tulle in our lives!  And man oh man, does it ever make me want to twirl around the room.  I almost have to refrain from ballet dancing my way through life whilst wearing this darling skirt.  I thought I’d pair it with some pretty pastels this time around, as we all know that spring is merely days away!  Which also means that I could anchor the entire look with my burgundy  J.Crew suede heels.  Found those beauties majorly on sale – and nothing makes me happier than finding items I love at a reduced price.
