Today I'm sharing with you some fun, warm finds to get you bundled up and ready for the colder weather.  From casual to chic, I've picked up something for everyone but of course have shared my favourite--which to discover, you'll have to watch the video!

As always, thanks for watching & stay tuned to the Place d'Orleans Facebook page for more videos!

Outfit deets:
* Jacob sweater which has become a fast favourite since I got it back in August--they still have it, btw--and you've seen it in my Back to School video,  on the weekend for date night and another night with friends & I also recently picked it up in off-white because I love it that much (and there was a 25% off promo).
* Urban Planet leggings which are very much like dancer leggings, they're shiny and I was a little uncertain about them at first but now they've become my go-to, aside from my faux leather ones.

Thursday already?  Awesome.  This week has flown by, apparently, only known by the fact that it's Thursday.  

I've been staying up late and sticking to the sheets every morning--a horrible routine to get into.  On top of that, it seems I've lost all motivation to hit the gym when last week I did seven days in a row!  Wah.  I've managed to go four times (including Saturday & Sunday) but once was yoga and does that really count?  I recently started adding yoga to my fitness routine and I'm still unsure about it.  I've been very anti-yoga for many years as I've never really enjoyed it but, if it's getting me to the gym with less groaning, I guess it's better than nothing and at least I'm moving my body.

Only a few days left to vote for me in the Dynamite model contest & the MiB Canadian Blog Awards.  I'd be so thankful if you could click those vote buttons for me (thank you!).



Today I'm sharing with you what's in my fridge... why?  Why not.  When I filmed this, I talked about everything I held up and why I like to buy or keep it in my fridge but decided that was kind of boring and too long so I sped things up to keep it quick and interesting.

Thanks for watching!  xo

Outfit deets:  
* Reitman's sweater (via Place d'Orleans) which is new and oh-so-cozy!
* Urban Planet leggings (new!) which I shared in my most recent Colour Pairings video.
* Accessories:  midi ring by Spring.

Struggling to figure out what to wear with faux leather leggings?  How about a cozy sweater and some boots; quick and easy and completely pulled together.

These photos were taking in between filming my next PDO video on Sunday.  The weather was quite chilly but ultimately it was a beautiful day with sunshine.  So bummed the weekend is over; who lives for the weekend?  Say I!

Voting is still going on for my nomination in the Made in Blog Awards and to be the face of Dynamite.  Please click the links and vote for me, I would really appreciate it!

I'm back to taking tons of photos so I've got a full recap to share with you from this past weekend.  I had a great weekend and am ready to kick off the week with a bang--or at least try to (I mean, who really likes it when the weekend is over?!).  I'd love to share some photos with you...
On Friday night, my girl friend came over and we had a feast.  She brought wine, anti-pasta, fresh bread and some delicious pastry cookies.  I made a hearty spaghetti squash with turkey sausage, chicken and veggies.  We stayed up late chatting and she showed me her new H&M finds--which make me want to go to H&M this week.


Saturday morning I met my boo at the gym and we did a shoulder workout.  He snapped this photo of me as we were leaving the gym--I'm standing in the 'Boot vestibule'.
Outfit deets:  Bench jacket, Lululemon hoodie & bag, Ardene tank, Walmart leggings, Uggs & Joe Fresh snood.


We grabbed lunch at Chuck's--yay--and I had the same chicken-bacon panini with crisp veggies and a lentil salad.


Saturday evening.
Outfit deets:  Garage beanie, thrifted jacket, Club Monaco scarf, Jacob sweater, Urban Planet leggings, Aldo boots & cross-body / clutch.


We had a super late dinner at El Camino around 10pm--since we'd had a super late lunch--which was amazing per usual.  Soft tacos & beer?  I'm always down for that.


Sunday morning workout was back day.  Then we grabbed some breakfast which I didn't snap a photo of, but, you know the deal.
Outfit deets:  Sirens top, Joshua Perets tank, Walmart leggings & Nike Free 3.0.


Saturday afternoon was spent filming my next Place d'Orleans video, which should come out mid-November.  This was one of the looks, can you guess what the video is about?
Outfit deets:  Reitman's sweater (new!), Urban Planet leggings & Aldo 'Klarr' boots (all ℅ Place d'Orleans)


Post-filming and freezing!  I sat in my car, heat blasting, seat warmers turned on max for a good five minutes before my fingers thawed and I could drive.  It was so cold filming outside--three degrees Celcius--and doing outfit changes, and in true Amanda fashion I forgot to wear socks so when I was switching between boots I was standing bare-foot on frozen grass #dummie.



Salad snack to fuel me before I got down to editing.


Hours and hours of editing before getting a finished product that I'm happy and proud of--seriously, about six hours of editing.


Taking a break from editing for Greek on Wheels for dinner (my fave!).


Happy Monday!  Hope you had a great weekend.
