On Friday night I headed out to my parent's place to celebrate my brother-in-law's 30th birthday.  Obviously I had to get a pic with this little girl.

Saturday morning breakfast out after hitting the gym.

On Saturday afternoon I did a little shopping and ran some errands and it snowed.  No joke.  I kid you not.  I wish I was.  Snow.  Ick.

Outfit deets:  Banana Republic dress (old), Report Signature shoes (old), Givenchy nude fishnets & Aldo clutch (old).

On Saturday night, my Grandfather invited Marco and I to a special dinner for his lodge.  It was held at a conference facility, so think banquet style for dinner and a DJ for dancing later. It was a group of about 100 and a really nice meal and evening with them.  And, there were prizes for ladies only and while every woman won a prize--mine was a super soft micro fleece blanket--I won a second prize, a $50 gift card to The Keg--so exciting!

On our way home, we stopped by a house-warming party for a friend and indulged in amazing food and wine.  I snapped this shot at the end of the night when I was back in my jacket (which is vintage and thrifted a couple years ago).

Sunday morning gym sesh; I don't normally wear long sleeves except when I (1) need to do laundry or (2) want to cover up a bit--note the short shorts and super fair skin?  Someone needs a spray tan… someone is also being a little lazy lately.

I spent Sunday afternoon working with a client.  We did a closet purge and styled over 20 outfits.  Then we went shopping to help build her wardrobe with pieces she needed.  

Outfit deets:  Mexx cardigan (old), Winners top, Urban Planet leggings (new!) & Aldo boots.

I had Monday off for Remembrance Day and went to the gym in the morning and came home and had some breakfast.  Later I used what I had in my fridge to make some lunch: spinach with a maple balsamic dressing and grilled veggies (peppers, red onion & sweet potato).  I lounged around and eventually got ready as I had a couple errands to run but was feeling crummy.  I went out and just started to feel worse and was home within two hours of leaving.  

On my way home, I quickly grabbed some groceries and made fajitas for myself for dinner.  I devoured them and got in bed for 8:30pm feeling pretty terrible. 

And the video I filmed last weekend has gone live and it's all about bundling up for winter so if you haven't seen it, go check it out HERE.

Happy Tuesday!

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.

* Aldo 'Burkinafaso' boots.

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!).

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.

* Aldo 'Klarr' boots which you've seen with magenta pants, burgundy pants and also when I showcased them in my Fall Fashion video / haul.

* 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!
