San Francisco trip (Outfit Edition)

San Francisco trip (Outfit Edition)

I will post details about the itinerary for the week, but for now I’ll just talk about my outfits (the most important part right??)

Of course I had to start the trip off with a San Fran shirt. I steered away from the classic touristy shirt and managed to snag this awesome Golden-Gate Bridge T-shirt on sale from Old Navy. It was super comfy for the flight!

I did a quick change after doing some shopping when we first arrived. Since I knew San Fran can get sort of chilly at night I opted for printed silky pants and a white jean jacket. The pants and jacket are both from Forever 21. That night we visited the Top of The Mark Hotel and caught an AMAZING 360 view of the city with an unforgettable sunset. After a few drinks we headed over to dinner along the Embacadero and took in the breathtaking views of the water overlooking the Oakland Bay Bridge.

Day 2 brought with it a lot of hiking and walking around and wayyyy too much fun!

This was one of my favourite outfits. The Forever 21 jumpsuit was comfortable all day long especially paired with a classic white converse runner.  Since we visited Alcatraz that night this was my version of a prison jumpsuit. Something tells me I wouldn’t do well with prison attire…

Day 3- WHEN LIFE GIVES YOU LEMONS….

Day 3 brought more jumps and a lot more hiking!

I stuck with my white converse pairing them with a plain black t-shirt with a cross-cross back from Stiches and lemon print shorts from none other than, you guessed it…Forever 21!

Day 4 we traded the hiking trails for bike trails! We rented bikes and biked through Baker Beach all the way across the Golden Gate Bridge and back again. The shorts are from Old Navy (featured on Lauren Conrad’s Instagram), the shirt is from Winners and the bobble necklace I picked up on sale at H&M while out shopping in Union Square in San Fran.

Day 5 was another trade. Traded in our runners and bikes for a convertible to drive down the coast! Both the skirt and lace cardigan are from Forever 21 and the mesh top is actually a workout top from Winners–perfect on this very hot day! My floppy hat with small gold feather-detail is from H&M and my rings (snake- Suzy Shier, middle rings are three different Pandora rings stacked together)

Again with the matching sets…

I cannot say enough how big of a fan I am of these!

This set I picked up on sale last year at Zara for $40.00. It’s got a textured detail to it with green piping on the pockets as well as the entire back of the tank is leather with a slit at the bottom. I paired it with a plain white blazer that I found at their end of summer sale this year for $29.00 I finished it off with my favourite pair of heels for work from Hudson’s Bay. I love the short heel with gold details! Instead of wearing my green Raybans I opted for a pop of a contrasting colour and went with my orange ones this time around!

The statement necklace really is a statement! I found this at the same sale at Zara for $12.99…yes you read that correctly!!!  l love how different it is it’s like a work of art!

City Girl In The Country!

City Girl In The Country!

I am so in love with matching sets! I picked up this floral matching set from Urban Planet for $25.00. I paired it with a simple pair of neutral coloured sandals and my green flashlens Rayban aviators. I love wearing these sets because they are super comfortable (they feel like pjs!!) If you style it properly you can ensure that it doesn’t look like you are wearing pjs out in public!

Orange is the new black!

I don’t have a lot of orange in my wardrobe so I was hesitant to buy this dress at first. Once I tried it on I fell in love with the colour, fit and style! I really enjoyed the small peplum ruffle it adds a real classy touch!

It’s designer Catherine Malandrino which I picked up on sale from Winners for $22 compared to $175!!!

I got compliment after compliment on this dress. I paired it with one of my fav statement necklaces that I picked up on Canal street in NYC!

I first came across this outfit on Twitter when I saw A-list celebrity Diane Kruger wearing it. I figured it would have an A-list pricetag to go along with it. However, to my surprise I learned that it was from one of my favourite stores (Forever 21).

FOREVER-21-Grid-Print-Blouse-and-Gaucho-Set-Seen-on-Diane-Kruger

I also happened to already have a pair of magenta heels just like Diane’s. The pink heels really added a nice pop to the outfit!

I finished it off with a classic Michael Kors bag in black.

You can shop the look in the links below.

I hope you enjoy this outfit as much as I do!

All-white everything OOTD!

All-white everything OOTD!

Victoria day was just over a week ago so it’s time to bust out my whites (yes I follow the no white after Labour Day rule!) I’m not super strict with it, I’ll wear white tops, but as far as white shoes and pants go I like to wait until it warms up a bit and it’s almost officially summer.

This was what I call my power-suit for work.

Details (from top to bottom)

Jacket: Michael Kors (Marshalls)

Leather Tank: Express

White Dress Pants: Winners

White Shoes: Hudson’s Bay

The shoes were without a doubt my FAVOURITE part of this whole outfit! I had been looking around for a cute, comfortable pair of white shoes for a while. When I came across these they were not only comfortable but I instantly fell in love with the details on th heel!

Let me know your thoughts on this look and if you wear white after Labour Day, I’d love to hear your feedback! 🙂

Clueless Inspired OOTD: Houndstooth Coordinates

Clueless Inspired OOTD: Houndstooth Coordinates

When I saw these houndstooth coordinates in the sale section of Forever 21 I was a little unsure at first. I’ve really started my collection of coordinates but don’t have a lot of cropped tops. With such a long torso I sometimes find that without higher waisted bottoms it’s too short! So when I finally got this outfit and put it on it was a match made in heaven! A perfectly shaped crop top and flared skirt!

I finished the outfit off with Kenneth Cole suede heeled sandals that I got from Ross in Florida. They’re extremely comfortable and I just love the thicker band around the ankle!

The outfit really reminded me of Cher Horowitz from the hit show Clueless. For something I was unsure about at first turned out to be a favourite! 🙂
