Winter Favourites

Although winter is not entirely over, and it's still below zero in many places in the world. I'm luckily enough to finally buy tulips and transition out of winter. Here are some of my favourites for this past few months.

This season was all about the long structureless coats. I have a few from the season and I literally wore them everyday. They were my go-to pieces as they were not only warm, but they were also super stylish without even trying (who doesn't like to put in little effort, but get great results right?!). I really loved greys and beiges this season because they were different form black on black on black.

I was also obsessed with maroons and cranberries for the season. Theres someone about that colour that I love; probably the fact that you could wear it like a neutral colour. It's not bold like jewel tones, but not boring like you typical black and whites.

This was a season of black hats, sweater dresses, high necks, and booties. I've been obsessed with the  contemporary and modern look recently. As I get older, I'm more drawn to simpler pieces. Shapeless pieces are also much comfortable!

White Chocolate Mochas, penguin socks (cutesy christmas socks) and warm faux fur throws were a stable this season.

For beauty products: When I had the time to do my nails my go-to colour was either Red or a cranberry shade. I also discovered the Korres primer and can need live with out it. Unfortunalty, it is not at Sephora's in Canada, but possibly in a selection of Shopper Drug Marts!

The Shoe Game 101

Today we are talking all about shoes! They say diamonds are a girl's best friend, but I think shoes are a girl's best friend, but the selection of shoes can also be overwhelming. Hopefully this is a blog post that will take some of the confusion away.

1) Coloured heels: Adds a pop to neutral outfits and interest to an outfit.

2) Nude Heels: Closed toe or not, nude heels are perfect for elongating your legs and are always a staple item. (They go with everything)

3) Taupe booties: Sometimes black booties can look very harsh against lighter denim, colourful pastel pants and white. Taupe is best pared with blue denim and white pants.

4) Black pumps: Perfect shoes for bold and simple outfits. I would pair them with a fun red cocktail dress or an LBD. These are also great shoes to make elongate your legs as it does not cut you off.

5) Strappy Sandals: Perfect for casual wear and adding femininity to an outfit. It adds texture and is perfect for dressing up a simple outfit.

6) Black booties: As a staple for fall and winter, black booties practically go with everything. Black tights and dresses, black pants, skirts, and  jewel-toned pants.

Caution: Black booties however, can sometimes look harsh against lighter pastel pants. It can also make you look shorter if you do not ear black tights (when wearing a dress).

7) Pointy toe: I long pointy shoes, because it is so feminine. Flats or heels, point toe shoes bring class and a sophisticated look.

8) Strappy heels: Perfect to added texture and pattern to a simple outfit. These sort of shoes are very versatile. If heels are not your thing, opt for strappy sandals.

Caution: Too-much print can make strappy heels look confusing.

I hope this helps to make shoe shopping fun!

Currently Longing For...

Happy Tuesday! I love following trends, but I'm also one to pick and choose what I like from a certain season. Here are a few of my favourites.

I love interior design and keeping up with what's new and modern. I am currently obsessing over golds, marble and geometric shapes. Modernity and the contemporary trend is so classy and simple that it really suits my personality. White with accents of marble texture and gold/bronze textures are so popular at the moment.

I'm also obsessed with decorative books because it makes my space look chic, and sophisticated.

To go with this modern contemporary look, I am loving the sleeveless jacket trend. It's so different and such a fun and simple twist on the regular pea coat/trench coat. Paired with knee high-boots makes such a modern, yet feminine look.

I'm a handbag junkie, what can I say... A girl loves her handbags. Currently on my wish list is the Rebecca Minkoff Hudson Moto Mini and the MICHAEL Michael Kors Selma Medium Satchel in Cherry. I've been eyeing these gorgeous little guys for a while now and the are great bags for everyday usage.

I'm also loving Quay Australia as the have such great quality sunglasses for an affordable price. Their 'My Girl' sunnies are one of their most popular styles and I honestly want them in every colour. They are not only trend, its the perfect style of cat eye. They are big enough, but not too overwhelming. I have a their gold/brown pair and I LOVE them.
