While doing some online shopping with the fiancĂ©, I came across these amazing Jeffrey Campbell wedge cut-out boots on Karmaloop.  Fortunately, they don't have my size anymore ... otherwise, I'm not sure I could contain myself ... nor my credit card.
Dynamite skirt, American Eagle top, Costa Blanca belt
Le Chateau & Mexx bracelets, Guess Pumps,
vintage necklace & Hot Diamonds ring

My wonderful fiancĂ© got me this belt for my birthday (among other wonderful things) and I paired it with one of my favourite pencil skirts and a billowy-summery top which has been waiting for it's break-out this year.  I envision this belt getting a lot of play from waist-cinching tops to high-waisted skirts - a perfect gift. 



Jamie from one of my favourite blogs GLAM LATTE has Bag Tagged me!  So, in the true spirit of bag tagging (check out my previous bag post here) check out what I'm toting around now:

{ my new Matt & Nat bag from my future SIL }

{ iPhone, car keys, Coach wallet, pashmina, Victoria's Secret Beauty Rush 'Minty' lip gloss, clear nail polish, studded bangle, purse holder & Aldo sunglasses case }

Now it's your turn.  I'm tagging some favourite bloggers to do the same:

Fruit salad is a favourite dish of mine, but I never seem to make it.  I do however think it's imperative to have strawberries and bananas, although the bananas don't tend to last very long.  However, I decided to whip up a quick fruit salad to enjoy with my lunches for at least a couple days this week.  Bon appetit!


Vigoss jeans, Urban Behaviour trench, Old Navy dress (as a top),
GAP cardigan, Costa Blanca belt, Bijoux Terner pashmina,
A.Co Designs key necklace, Aldo bangle, wedges & purse

So I've done it.  I've officially broke my own shoe rule.  Since high school I've refused to wear sandals until April 1st.  Which really, for a climate where we sometimes have snow into April, isn't that alarming.  However, the weather has been so mild and nice lately that I couldn't resist one of my favourite combos (flared jeans & wedges).  I mean, I think the transition this year has been much easier due to a few factors anyways:

  • I've been wearing open-toe shoes all winter, with tights

  • The weather is spring-like when it normally wouldn't be

  • Almost all the snow has melted and the roads are dry    

Don't forget to SHOP MY CLOSET!

This weekend I had my birthday party and it was such a great night.  I invited my favourite girls over for a night of eating, drinking and socializing.  I think everyone had a great time, I certainly did!  Thank  you so much to LC, KC, PK, JM, SS, SL, CG, NB for making my birthday so wonderful and memorable.  <3
