What I Wore: Faking It

Last weekend was brutal for me. I won’t go into details, but I feel exhausted this week, and it’s only TUESDAY! Plus, the rainy/crappy weather certainly isn’t helping.

The only positive of this temperature shift, is that I finally get to wear my beloved faux fur vest! And that’s about it.

Hope your weekend was more fun than mine! What did you do?

I Wore: Shirt – Gap; Fur Vest – Winners; Pleather Pants, Necklace – Forever21; Boots – Proenza Schouler (The Room); Clutch – Prada (Holt Renfrew)

This is what I wore this Saturday to IKEA. Colorful pants, colorful top, and a red coat to top it off. Might be a bit too much for some, but I’ve never been one to shy away from of a ~~little~~ lot of color.

How was your weekend?

I Wore: Coat, Jeans – c/o Old Navy; Top – H&M; Necklace – Forever21; Rain Boots – Mel (Urban Outfitters); Bag – Prada; Sunglasses – Ray Ban

What I Wore: Addicted

I think I might be addicted to Old Navy. Their selection has been so good lately, and their prices are even better! And I just can’t stay away. Do I sound like a proper addict yet?

This coat is from…you guessed it…Old Navy, and my friend Stylish Jo, also has one. And I really, really love it! Oh, and I also got it at 50% off plus 30% off, so it was practically free. Free(ish) and cute? Yes, please!

What I Wore: It’s So Easy Being Green

Everyone, meet my favorite outfit ever! A little Club Monaco and Old Navy, with a sprinkle of Prada. Just the way (aha-aha) I like it.

These pants…oh, these pants! When le boyfriend doubted my sanity at Vaughan Mills’ Holts Last Call, I told him to just trust me, before I walked out rocking these babies*. And yet he still had no faith in Miuccia’s designs, or my choices. Pfft, pajama pants my foot!

Yes, these pants might resemble a certain sleeping garment, and yes, I had to alter them not once but twice to get the length just right…but all this effort is so worth it when I walk out of the house, and get ~~admiring~~ puzzled looks from strangers. It’s the best kind of compliment ever.

I Wore: Jacket – Club Monaco; Sweater – Old Navy; Pants, Clutch – Prada; Shoes – Nine West; Necklace – Forever21; Ring – YSL; Leather Bracelet – Danier

*To my international readers: “rocking these babies” doesn’t in any way imply rocking actual babies…it’s just another way to say “wearing these pants”, but in a more confusing manner. Kapish?

What I Wore: These Boots Were Made for Strutting

Last week was an awesome week! Why? I got a box with a pair of these beauties from Stuart Weitzman in the mail! Best-looking lace-up ankle booties I’ve seen in a loooong while! A combination of calf hair and multi-textured leather had me sold at first sight. Plus, le boyfriend loves them too…and that doesn’t happen too often!

And though I’m still gutted that summer is over…these babies will certainly make fall more enjoyable.

I Wore: Shirt – H&M; Skirt, Necklace – Forever21; Boots – c/o Stuart Weitzman; Ring – YSL; Sunglasses – Ray Ban; Bag – Prada

What I Wore: A Different Kind of Cougar

Well, well, well…last week, we got our first chilly reminder of what’s to come – cooler temps, followed by the rain, snow, and slush. Too much of a reality check for you? Me too.

At least, I finally got to wear my new Cougar Pillow Boots, without looking like a crazy person. They kept my feet so warm and comfy – pure bliss. Did you now Cougar re-released its now iconic Pillow Boot? Well, now you do! And this time around, these comfy kicks come in a variety of styles and colors to boot. What’s your fave? Let me know in the comments!

I Wore: Sweater – c/o Billabong; Top – Forever 21; Shorts – H&M; Thigh-highs – American Apparel; Bag – c/o Ecco; Boots – Cougar Pillow Boots; Ring – YSL; Sunglasses – Ray Ban

What I Wore: California Dreaming

By now, a lot of you know that while in LA, le bf popped the question on top of a ferris wheel at the Santa Monica Pier (I didn’t jump off). Even without the sweet proposal, I fell in love with Los Angeles, its amazing blue skies, the hills all around the city, the palm trees, the ocean, and the warmth of the sun on my face – every single day. It just doesn’t get better than this.

What I Wore: EXpress Yourself

Wore this little number to The Ex this year – comfortable and cute, just the way (aha, aha) I like it! Also wore my newest favorite piece of jewelry from Caroline Néron. The detailing on this exquisite necklace is so intricate…I have been wearing it with everything to everything, and get nothing but compliments. In case you didn’t know, Caroline is a Canadian actress turned jewelry designer. If you haven’t seen her pieces before, make sure to check out her website Bijoux Caroline Néron.

This year’s visit to The Ex was a lot of fun…as expected. We tried some fried cola (tastes like coke-flavored funnel cake), played lots of games (le bf won a pink Blah for me), and gorged on Tiny ~~Tim’s~~ Tom’s donuts. It’s amazing how much fun one can have shooting cork bullets at cans (fact: I have good aim), or pelting rubber chickens into pots.

Have you gone to The Ex this year? You still have a few days to get in on the EXcitement! Fried butter, anyone?

I Wore: Dress – Forever21; Clutch – Prada; Shoes – Marc (Imelda); Necklace – c/o Caroline Néron

What I Wore: J.Crew

Inspired by J.Crew’s stylish President Jenna Lyons, I’ve decided to layer a light linen/cotton J.Crew sweater over a cream maxi dress for a mix of casual and (slightly) dressy. Then I decided to wear it to work…which was a big mistake – rolling my office chair all over the bottom of the skirt, getting the hem stuck in the wheels – not my idea of a productive work day. Thankfully, once my cubicle was out of sight, the outfit got a lot more comfortable. Lesson learned: office chair + maxi skirt = disaster waiting to happen.

Post on J.Crew’s launch party is coming soon! Stay tuned.

H&M Style Face-off x VitaminDaily.com

Most of you already know that my love for H&M runs deep. It’s one of those stores that keeps popping up over and over (and over and over) again on my bank statement month after month – I think I might just be addicted. So when Vitamin Daily asked me to contribute to a promo that involved H&M, I didn’t have to think twice. I think my response might’ve been to the extent of ”YESWHEREDOISIGNIAMSOHAPPYILOVEH&M”.

So here’s the deal: I, among some really cool bloggers (Beckerman sisters, Stefania of Textstyles, It Girl Anya, and a few others) had to stop by an H&M store, style a mannequin, and take some photos of our final masterpiece(s).

What for? Well, Vitamin Daily is holding a super fun H&M Style Face-off contest, which just went live, and you…yes YOU can win $100 H&M gift card, simply by voting on your favorite mannequin. Seriously…that’s ALL you have to do – Like Vitamin Daily’s Facebook Page, then click Like on your fave look (1 per person), sit back, and hope that you won.

And while I’m not going to twist your arm and make you vote for my creation (do it!), I do think she looks mighty cute. And if you do decide to vote for Style Blog’s mannequin – I have a ~~bribe~~ chocolate bar with your name on it…though I will probably eat it myself…but I’ll think of you while eating it! Deal?

I will admit though, I do have some crazy-good competition – I, myself, adore all of the looks that other bloggers put together, so if you don’t vote for blonde Nelly Jr., I won’t hold it against you (but no chocolate for you!).

So what are you waiting for? Visit Vitamin Daily Facebook Page to enter H&M Style Face-off contest now!

What I Wore: Easy Breezy

When the summer heat threatens to melt my face off, the only option in my closet that is actually AN OPTION is a breezy cotton dress. Well, going buck naked would also be quite breezy, but not very classy. Though still quite tempting.

This dress in particular is not even a dress, really. It’s a tank-top that cost me 10 bucks at H&M. And there you have it, folks – long tank top and no pants. Classy all the way.

So what about you? What do you wear in this sweltering heat? Let me know in the comments! But, please, whatever you do, don’t send me your nude photos. I get enough of those already. Just kidding. I don’t get nearly enough. So yeah, send them right over!*

I Wore: Tank/Dress – H&M; Shoes – Steve Madden; Necklace – Forever 21; Bag – c/o Ecco; Earrings – Grandma’s; Sunglasses – Ray Ban; Lipstick – Joe Fresh Fuschia

*Seriously, don’t!

What I Wore: Dot, Dot, Dot

Those of you that follow me on Twitter, already know that Mondays nights are reserved for Bachelor/Bachelorette watching/bitching. It’s my not-so-secret guilty pleasure. Don’t lie, I know you have one too! Anyway, this season of Bachelorette is probably one of the most frustrating/annoying/boring seasons in a while, and somehow I still tune in every Monday. What is wrong with me???

More importantly, what is wrong with ASHLEY? Her constant whining over that douche Bentley leaves me gasping for air…as I simply don’t have enough lung capacity to be screaming at the TV for the entire hour. Sometimes, she says the word “Bentley” 5 times in one minute. If you don’t think that it’s a lot, try playing a drinking game – for every time that dreaded word escapes Ashley’s mouth, take a shot of tequila. By the time the show is over, you’ll be passed out on the floor of your living room.

Anyway…the point is…I hate this show, and everything it stands for…but yet I still tune in week after week. How does it relate to my outfit? Well, it kinda doesn’t. But if you watch The Bachelorette, you know what “dot, dot, dot” stands for…and let’s just say, this post was “inspired” by the “dot, dot, dot”…oh, and also, my shirt has dots on it.

Brain vacay…it’s a thing.

What I Wore: Fun in Acapulco

This is yet another one of those “misleading title” posts. Legal disclaimer: I didn’t have fun in Acapulco last weekend. Truth is…I’ve never even been to Acapulco. But if it’s any consolation…if I were to go…this is what I’d wear.

Last weekend, le boyfriend and I jumped into a Zip Car, packed up some leftover brisket from Barque, and drove to Georgina, ON – the home of Sibbald Point, or Acapulco substitute for the day. Despite the drizzle of rain, we persevered, and were in turn rewarded with a few hours of blissful sun…sandy beach and all.

Have I mentioned that I love summer? No? Well, now you know it. How was your weekend?

I Wore: Tank Top, Skirt – Forever21; Hat, Bathing Suit, Bracelets – H&M; Bag – c/o Ecco; Necklace – c/o Banana Republic; Earrings - atelier l.a.f.; Shoes – Urban Outfitters; Sunglasses – Ray Ban; Tote – The Bay

What I Wore: Apples and Oranges

Sorry for slow-mo posting this week…and for being horrid at responding to your emails. My brain is on vacation…so…yeah. You might also ask…”Why apples and oranges? There’s no fruit in sight!” Well, I was going to call this post Orange You Glad…but it turns out that I used that clever name already…so Apples and Oranges it is. Brain vacay…it’s a thing.

Anywhooo…Here’s what I wore last weekend for Pride in Toronto. A little bit of colorblocking, and the new fave shoes in my closet - Flare x Aldo collab wedges. Nice and summery. Short and sweet. Like this post.

Have a lovely weekend!!!

I Wore: Top, Skirt – Zara; Shoes – Flare x Aldo; Necklaces – H&M, Forever21; Backpack – Chanel; Rings – YSL, H&M; Bracelets – H&M, BCBG; Sunglasses – Ray Ban

What I Wore: Canada Day

First of all, I wanted to apologize for the amount of wrinkles on my shorts in these pictures. I can already hear you yelling at me for not being a good blogger, and posting these wrinkled-ass shorts pics. Well, in my defense…this is what cotton shorts look like after a three-hour-long drive to Lindsay. Yes, it took us three hours to get to Lindsay, ON last Friday. Three glorious hours of Ace of Base, Best of Backstreet Boys, some old school Puff Daddy, and Nana thrown in for good measure, with a dash of Bryan Adams Unplugged. It was either that, or Indian music, courtesy of my friend Donkey. Thanks, but no, thanks.

The reason for our trip to the mysterious faraway land of Lindsey was to visit our friend Jo. She and her hubby had the crazy idea to relocate there (of all places), and this was our first attempt at being good friends and visiting the fam.

Truthfully, it wasn’t all that bad. Lindsey, I mean. Yeah, it was way too far for my liking, but the fact is…the beach is a quick drive away, Kawartha’s best ice-cream is the most delish thing I’ve had all summer, and there is something very charming about a neverending backyard. So, after some hot dogs (yum), Barefoot Bubbly Moscato Spumante + Pom Juice Cocktails (yummy), some homemade smores (yummier), and the most amazing…no, seriously, the creamiest ice-cream ever…I was ready to move right in.

Instead, I was dragged back to Toronto, kicking and screaming. Until next time.

PS. According to le boyfriend, this is not a Canada Day outfit…this is a Poland Day outfit. And though technically, there’s no such day, I would never be able to convince the stubborn Aries otherwise. So yeah, I looked like the Polish flag on Canada Day. Quick, call the Prime Minister!

I Wore: Shirt, Ring - Forever21; Shorts – Banana Republic; Shoes, Bracelets - H&M; Bag – c/o Ecco; Sunglasses – Ray Ban (c/o Lenscrafters)
