Something Borrowed

Pullover - pre-owned (similar) // Shorts - Tempt (similar) // Boots - Lipstik 

We have this tradition between my mother and I where every couple of years she'll get nostalgic and want to open up suitcases where all her clothes from her late 20's are stored; air them, remove a shoulder pad or two and wear them out. Usually, this would involve trying on ridiculous outfits and laughing over baggy plaid suits, but there would always be that one item that I'd immediately grab, tell mum I'd be borrowing and gradually claim it as my own. 

 In this case, it's two pieces - this super cute navy knit pull over (I love the crew neckline!) and heirloom pearl bracelet. All we need is a circle rockabilly skirt and we're set for the 1950's look don't you think?

Tee - Ben Sherman (similar) // Shorts - Forever New (similar) // Jacket - My dad's (sorry) // Shoes - Naturalizer N5 Comfort 

A new look for this week! It's always so funny to look through the camera roll after we're done and see how ridiculous some of the photos always turn out. This outfit is comfortable as hell because of these super loose shorts from Forever New and comfy shoes from BP. I love the fit of these shorts, and will probably continue to wear them through winter with tights underneath. Also, I'm stoked to show you guys these heels I've had for a while - they have slight height and are super duper comfortable.

Cobblestone Creepers

Button Up - Country Road (similar) // Jeans - Cheap Monday // Boots - Lipstick // Bag - Gifted 

What I love most about The Rocks is how easy it is to wonder off main streets and find cobblestoned lane ways with historic maps and facts framed onto their sandstones walls -  like yesterday's magical experience where we stumbled upon this beautiful nook overlooking Walsh Bay.

The warm and breezy day called for one of my favourite boyfriend style button ups. This shirt is such a wonderful, deep navy blue; I think I've mentioned it before how obsessed I am with this subdued classic colour. Usually I wear it buttoned all the way to the top with black skinny jeans, but it looks (and feels!) equally great un-ironed and loose with a pair of rolled up, tapered, black jeans - I perfect outfit when you're in a hurry!

always know the difference between sparkling, still, and tap water guys!

Tee - Zara // Cardi - Redoute Creation (similar) // Leggings - Blackmilk // Creepers - TUK // Bag - Glassons

I know I was complaining in the last post about having to start wearing tights again, but I will admit it's good to be finally able to bring out these leggings again, and it did make me a little excited for what I'll wear this season. I have quite a few winter pieces I want to show you guys, and yes, they'll include tights, extra layers and cool textures. Anyway, today's look is quite casual and can be worn any day. I added a white jumper as a layer, and a very old, broken saddle bag. I love wearing brown bags with monochrome outfits, it just adds a simple pop of subtle colour. I'm excited for the autumn scenery to pop its head out and for the weather to cool down a fraction.
