O U T F I T D E T A I L S : CROCHET KIMONO | DYNAMITE DRESS -- OLD (SIMILAR, LOVE THIS) | LACE UP HEELS | ALDO STUDDED CLUTCH -- OLD (SIMILAR, HOT PINK)
When I picked up this kimono the other day, I kept envisioning it with this snug, white dress from my closet... that I never wear. Seriously, you ladies know, tight is not really my thing when it comes to tops and dresses (okay, sometimes it's my thing), but I knew it would be the perfect date night look and so almost, ethereal and pretty.
I picked up this dress for a Vegas trip a couple years ago and love it with the soft, flowy kimono. Since then, I've paired this kimono with skinnies and a chiffon cami and know it's going to get tons of play this Summer in similar looks or with shorts. Such a beautiful and affordable statement piece.

O U T F I T D E T A I L S : DISTRESSED CROP TANK | SPORTS BRA | HIGH-WAISTED LEGGINGS | HIGH TOP SNEAKERS
I have been obsessed with high-waisted leggings for about six months now, specifically for the gym. They keep you held in, are uber flattering and if the seaming is right, give the booty some shape.
I wanted to share my new leggings, which I'm slightly obsessed with--I love that they have a bit of a sheen to them, but not so much that it's shiny. They are thick but not warm, very high waisted (perfect especially if you're tall) and super long--I have been rolling mine up to create a cropped look for Summer. The perfect pair to add to my collection (and to motivate me to get to the gym!).
Hi ladies, hope my American friends had a great Memorial Day long weekend and hope it was a great weekend for everyone else. Apologies on the delay for the Weekend Snaps--this weekend seriously zapped me of energy and I think I need a weekend to recover from my weekend! Sheesh. With that, onto the Snaps!
On Friday evening, I had full intentions of going to the gym, but after several hours of (successful) shopping, I wanted to just head home and unwind.
I went to the mall & also the outlets and grabbed a few new pieces which I'll share in my upcoming Spring/Summer Haul (just waiting on a couple items to get delivered!).
LACE UP FLATS -- ON SALE!
TGIF! Who's excited for the weekend? We are heading to Toronto for something exciting so follow along on Snap to see it play out (I hope!) -- I'm acoest1984.
Hope you have a great one and here are some fun links from around the web to kick it off...
Man perms are a thing. #braceyourselves
And lastly, Uber Eats just came to Ottawa, and we have no-joke ordered it four times in the last two weeks! #ramenfix That said, here's $10 off.

O U T F I T D E T A I L S : F21 BLACK DRESS (SIMILAR) | SKIRT (WORN BACKWARDS) | PEEP-TOE BOOTIES (BUDGET FRIENDLY) | H&M CHOKER (SIMILAR, LOVE THIS)
I'm a sucker for neutrals, and black is one colour I'm not willing to give up despite the temperatures rising. I love Summer-izing my black pieces and it's the perfect time to show a little skin and also keep things edgy.
I've had this flowy shift dress for a year and while the tail is long, the front is a little on the short side for me, so I always pair it with a body-con style skirt underneath for a bit more coverage. Depending on where I'm going, I can pull the skirt down to offer more coverage, or up like here for a night out.
The key to making your black pieces work for Summer is to keep the fabrics lighter--think crochet, linen, chiffon & lace--and looser and show a little leg or bare the shoulders, etc. Work with the warm weather, not against it.
