Polka Dots and Studs

I love this top because it incorporates two of my favorite trends: polka dots and studs. It is hard to see in the picture, but the shoulders of this top have studs. I also am OBSESSED with these Zara pumps, they are so comfy and cute and also have studs on the back. I love how pointy toe pumps are back, I missed them dearly :)

On another note. I am so excited that as of March 6th, Canada can finally shop online at Zara. I know pretty much everywhere else in the world could EONS ago, but I'm pretty excited for us Canadians! My credit card, on the other hand, may not be as excited.

Must Haves


I have been so busy lately that I haven’t been able to do a blog post. I was away at a conference most of last week. However, I was able to squeeze in a little bit of shopping while away, which inspired this post. My newest obsession for Spring is the color mint. I don’t know what it is about this color, but as soon as I walk into a store and see anything in mint, I’m immediately drawn to it. I love it for Spring, as well as Summer. You have a solid 4-5 months of wear. These are just a few of the items I have my eye on:
1. ASOS
2.Tobi
6. Lulu's
7. Forever21 (This comes in mint)

Monday Blahs

I hate Mondays. With a passion. I know I'm not alone on this, but Mondays are by far the worst day of the week. To help beat the Monday blues I'm heading to Pilates. I don't mind working out, but I find it extra hard to get motivated on Mondays. Personally, I would much rather cozy up on my couch and watch the Bachelor. However, having cute workout clothes helps get me a little more motivated. My Nike Free Runners are so comfy and cute, that they brighten up my gloomy winter Mondays.

Valentine's Dinner Outfit

I'm a little delayed on posting my Valentine's day outfit, as I have been out of town the last couple days. Yesterday, my husband and I went on a quick getaway to Vancouver. We went to the spa, ate lots of yummy food and did some shopping. A little R&R is exactly what I needed. Anyways, for Valentine's dinner we went to a beautiful restaurant on the water with another couple. It was a nice to get dressed up and enjoy a night out.
This blazer is a recent purchase and I adore it. I wore it the other
day with another outfit. It is so versatile.  
 

Blazer: Forever 21
Tank: Aritzia
Skirt: Asos
Necklace:  Mark.
Pumps: Aldo (old)

Cozy Sweater Love

 
I am head over heels in love with this sweater. It is so warm and cozy, yet still looks great dressed up or down. I first spotted this sweater on pinterest, and it took me a while to track down where to purchase it. I finally found it at Sheinside. Sheinside has a ton of cute, affordable clothing. It also has free shipping! I paired it with my favorite burgundy pants and black ankle boots. 

 
Sweater: Sheinside
Pants: Tobi 
(They are sold out of burgundy, here is the same pair in different colors)
Boots: Similar here

Monday Must Haves

As the weather here is beginning to resemble more spring than winter, I've noticed I've been daydreaming of warmer weather. Not only does Spring bring beautiful flowers, longer days and sunshine, but it brings fashions in beautiful Spring colors. Even though it is still February, I've already been eyeing different pieces I plan on adding to my Spring wardrobe!

Gold Spikes

I love how spikes are popping up everywhere. You are seeing them on clothes, accessories, jewelry and even shoes. I'm a huge fan of spikes, because I think it adds just that little bit of edge to your outfit. I paired the gold spikes with some gold accessories. I'm usually a silver or white gold fan, however this outfit needed gold. I must say I'm loving the gold and will be incorporating it into more outfits.
