Something Unexpected

I tend to wear a lot of outfits over and over again. Not surprisingly, I don't have a massive wardrobe - and it's all about having items that can be worn multiple times.

Test Shots

This is just a simple, comfy outfit for kicking around the house, running a couple of errands and working on a few Christmas gifts.

Practically Perfect

I'm a sucker for a good dress.

Traditions

I am lucky to have a very close relationship with my sisters.
It wasn't until I was an adult and began talking to other people that I realized just how "abnormal" our close relationships were. My sisters are 3 and 6 years younger than me, respectively, but are absolutely some of my closest friends. We talk very regularly, see each other often and have several sister traditions - one of which, is apple picking.

Mildly Fangirling

So - I'm not sure if you know this about me, but I am a HUGE fan of Doctor Who.

Body Con(scious)

Generally speaking, I love a good dress. Especially a nice solid, rich colour, and in recent years I have actually begun to have enough confidence to wear ones that inch a little closer to the body-con style. Which took a while. I went through a definite phase where if it clung too close to the body it wasn't in my closet.

Tunic Time

I'll admit that there's not much I love more than a good tunic. I find they're flattering to most body types, they hide a multitude of sins and they can be seriously comfortable.

Comfy (New)Chic

*Disclosure: I received these items for free from Newchic in return for a post reviewing the items. All opinions are 100% my own*

Do you remember when I posted telling you about Newchic?

Breaking my Own Rules

I'm usually pretty strict about my "rules" when it comes to dressing myself.

That's a wrap

I picked up this denim wrap dress about a month ago while at our local V-V Boutique (that's Value Village for those of you who don't speak Mama-Sarcasm) and it hung in my closet for a while because once I got it home I wasn't really sure how to wear it.

A Little Bit Country...

When I put this outfit on I immediately thought of the mid 90s when I was a teenager and (admittedly) wore the heck out of the grunge trend. I mean, ripped jeans, plaid shirts with cuffed sleeves, boots, and so on and so on.

 

Who wears Plaid Pants?!

I had an almost unnecessary amount of excitement when I found these plaid pixie pants at Old Navy this fall.

A little mix

I love prints. I love this blanket scarf that my sister gave me for my birthday this year. I love my denim jacket, and I love a good tunic with leggings. Could I get all of these things in one outfit? You know it!

Family Fashion Feature

So, today I'm featuring my sister-in-law Melissa - because, well - Hello, Gorgeous!

Outdoorsy... ish

This is one of those outfits that I always try and categorize and it comes out as "Outdoors...y....ish".
Thing is - if I was actually spending time outdoors, I probably wouldn't be wearing this. But this is the kind of outfit that people think of when you say "outdoorsy". Y'know?

Navy and Wine

I love when I say the name of these two colours that they immediately make me think of drinking wine on a boat. Of course, I did neither of those things while wearing this outfit, but I still love those colours.

Frankly, my deer...

Everyone has a few items in their closets that aren't necessarily fashionable, don't quite fit perfectly, but are so comfortable and so full of memory that it just feels good to break it out and wear it occasionally. That's how I feel about this deer cardigan.

Denim on Denim

Wearing anything that's denim-ish on both the top and the bottom walks a very fine line between being comfy and stylish and being a full-on Canadian tuxedo. And given that I'm a Canadian - that danger is even more present.

Plaid and denim

This plaid shirt is quickly becoming a wardrobe favourite for me. It has a great loose, comfortable cut, soft flannel fabric and yet enough structure to be worn on it's own and not look like I'm wearing my Dad's shirt (which I totally used to do, I'll admit it - it was the 90s....).

Cables and Velvet

I love lush, rich, wintery fabrics like velvet.
