I'm cleaning out my closet and everything must go!
As I mentioned yesterday, I've created a place on my Facebook page for all the items I'm selling off from my closet. I'm trying to par down, as it's overflowing and I tend to hold onto things longer than I need to.
The sale will run until the end of February and whatever is left is going my local consignment shop.
Click on over to check out the sale, I have added over 100 items, with more items added last night. I still need to go through my skirts, shoes and accessories, so keep checking back.
Happy shopping & feel free to email me with any questions you might have.

Outfit deets:
* Forever 21 faux leather jacket which you've seen with coloured pants in the summer time (and some seriously unflattering photos, ha).
* Winners trapeze tank that I've worn so much it's getting worn out--as in, there might be a small hole somewhere.
* Urban Behaviour Brazil pants--I own three pairs of these because they fit like a glove, I wear black skinnies often, and they were $20.
* Aldo wedge boots which you've seen back in the Fall when I had the wedge shortened.
* Accessories: F21 cross-body clutch, MK watch, gift leather bracelet, Gorjana-Griffin bangle & Call it Spring ring.
So, if you haven't noticed, I have had a few exciting changes happening on my blog in the past couple weeks. One, of course, was the re-design which I'm really pleased with and plan to keep it this way for a bit, and secondly I've brought on a photographer for my outfit posts, which I'm really excited about.
When I started A.Co est. 1984 four years ago, it was a style blog and over the years has evolved into more of a lifestyle blog. I love sharing bits and pieces of my life with you, and don't plan to change that, but have been wanting to incorporate more style back into it. As that's truly where my passion lies, and some of my work as a Style Consultant, I really want to bring that element back to this space.
I have been loving using a cross-body clutch for several months now and have been alternating between this rose-gold coloured one I picked up from Forever 21 over a year ago, and my olive coloured Aldo one. I've been using them both so much they have started to tear a bit where the strap meets the bag.
I find that I'm using my Phillip Lim 3.0 for Target bag everyday which holds my heels, lunch, cosmetics bag, and my clutch, which is perfect. I need a big carry-all to tote everything back and forth, but when it comes to running errands or going out shopping, I simply can't be bothered with a big purse right now--I love having my hands free! I can see myself continuing this into the warmer months as it makes it so much easier for everyday life.
I have a few more changes up my sleeve and in preparation for that, I'm cleaning out my closet. I mentioned it on Facebook and Twitter that I'd share some clothes for sale, if anyone is interested and have started with some dresses I'm selling. Come on over, if you'd like to take a look. More to come!

Friday night laundry night with my hand-me-down cart. #lifesaver
Once I finished hanging all my laundry, I started to clean my room and ambitiously decided to start a pile of clothes I'm ready to part with… and the pile and closet haven't been touched since then…
(more details coming soon).
Sidenote: I haven't seen this much space on the bar in my closet since before I moved in over two years ago.
Tacos with friends at 10pm.
Saturday morning Marco forced my butt out of bed at 9am--too early--to hit the gym. That said, a slight motivation was knowing I had some new workout clothes to wear--I said slight.
Photoshoot sesh on Saturday during the day--looks coming this week.
On Saturday night we had a horrible snowstorm and I had dinner plans for Melissa's birthday outside of town. I left early and took my time and was only a few minutes late.
We ate at Babbo's and I had a gnocchi, which was pretty good--I have this dish maybe once a year and always feel weird not having veggies or meat in my pasta, but always really enjoy the splurge.
…no, I literally woke up, brushed my teeth, threw on a beanie and went home.
Sunday was my best friend's family baby shower and I played photographer.
See the shower I threw for her HERE.
Outfit deets: Fun & Flirt top, Sirens pants (they are maroon), Liliana wedges (new!), The Bay necklace & Joe Fresh bangle.
On Sunday evening I went to a Superbowl party where the food and drinks were a plenty and everyone was cheering for the Seahawks and in turn, a very happy party.
January has come and gone and I'm so pleased because it's the longest, coldest and most depressing month of the year! We've had no exception here in Ottawa either, we've been averaging temps of -30C (sometimes worse) on the daily and it's awful. One month closer to summer? I'm in.
In January I rang in the new year with Marco and friends with some sparkly photo props. I worked out every weekend, set some resolutions, got a pedicure with Sarah and bought some new shoes.
I had an impromptu date night--and had two margaritas--with my boo, wore non-snow boots for once since it was damn cold but at least it was dry, and threw a baby shower for my best friend.
I went to Izakaya, which wasn't so great, enjoyed the view from my apartment and shared my everyday make up. I was chosen to be a Style Ambassador for Clearly Contacts (I promise, more is coming on this), did some damage at Marshalls scoring several new workout clothes, tried out matte nail polish and celebrated my Grammy's birthday.
Outfit deets:
* Vero Moda top which you've seen with sequin shorts.
* H&M pants (old) which you've seen with wedges in an older but favourite post and slightly more recently in a good ol' selfie post.
* LA Shoe Republic heels which you've seen with a floral dress + blazer combo and you can find the link details to purchase HERE.
* Accessories: H&M necklace & midi rings & various bangles
Happy Thursday! Oh happy day! Some exciting things are in the works, and I'm totally going to be all secretive about it, but it's happy personal life changes that I will share soon, so stay tuned.
In other realms, I've had a really nice week, productive and busy. I had several errands to run on Monday evening and then put myself in bed, asleep by 11pm--which is so rare (I love staying up late, which is horrible because I have to get up early; anyone else with me?). Tuesday I had a styling client where we worked in her closet and styled over 20 outfits, which was a great success. Finally, last night, a few more errands, a business dinner meeting and then got my hands on some quality time with my man.
This weekend doesn't look like it will be slowing down either with a birthday dinner, a baby shower and video editing in between.
Hope you are having a super week and jeans-day tomorrow! C'mon weekend!
