We went to Taco Fest in Ottawa on Saturday night which was a great time. It was held at the huge--newly reno'ed--convention centre downtown. We arrived shortly after 6:30pm, grabbed some Coronas and headed into the ballroom where the vendors were set up. There was a live DJ and tons of booths, all serving up various forms of tacos, sliders, and amazing tilt-your-head-and-bite kind of food.
Since I wanted to be comfortable, but take advantage of being out on the weekend, I wore something that felt very me. The ripped jeans are new from Zara and although you can't see the low-back detail on this tank, it's kind of a reverse sexy top, exposing whatever pretty thing you choose to wear underneath (and sometimes I wear this to the gym to show off the back of my sports bra). We snapped these photos as we were leaving--sorry for the lack of detail shots but we were running late.
Since today is a holiday in Canada, I'll be back tomorrow with a full weekend recap. Hope you had a great weekend!

I'm so excited to share my newest pair of heels, these Iro Manela wedges. Unfortunately these are sold out now, but there is a very similar style called the Sattley which are still available.
I was so happy to find that these run true to size and are like little pillows on my feet--very comfortable and easy to walk in. I'm still lusting after the Iro Saresha but passed them up during the Friends & Family sale on Shopbop a few weeks ago. Now, onto more shoe photos!
Outfit deets:
* H&M top (old).
* Sirens pants which you've seen in my profile photo and the outfit post it came from and in the winter with a beanie.
* Zara sandal / basic heel which you've seen with a Palm Tree printed coat and dark denim skinnies and with a long cardi and raw hem denim.
* Accessories: Aldo necklace & Michael Kors watch.
Sometimes, despite being someone who lives fashion, I can have mornings where everything ends up on the floor and nothing fits right. I'd like to say I have a plethora of back-up outfits on hand, ready for when a fashion-block moment strikes, but I don't. I usually resort to all black, with various textures, but it feels a little weird doing that in the Spring time.
That said, I like to keep a 'Fashion Inspiration' folder on Pinterest for when I need a quick direction, although I usually just end up scrolling on and on and on, gazing at the beautiful photos instead of actually getting dressed.
This was definitely one of those mornings, and while I felt slightly defeated leaving the house in this outfit, I ended up getting several compliments and feeling pretty good all day long.
Any strategies you ladies use when having a case of I-have-nothing-to-wear!?

If you follow me on YouTube, you have already seen this when it was uploaded a couple days ago. That said, I couldn't not share it here, since I've been bringing you along for the entire process of moving.
I filmed this video back in February, prior to us moving in because I wanted to share the space empty before we moved and filled it up with all of our stuff. This also makes for great before and after photos and videos. I will eventually film an updated condo tour to show you how everything looks now, but without further adieu, here is a quick tour!

Outfit deets:
* Ashley B faux leather jacket which you've seen multiple times with an all-grey ensemble, when I went to Montreal with my guy, and with my other favourite jeans of the moment (in a more casual look).
* Dynamite t-shirt.
* Chiqle denim which you've seen before I cut the bottoms off.
* Forever 21 heels from last summer which you've seen with a dress last fall.
* Accessories: Deux Lux bag (similar), Suzy Shier necklace, Call it Spring + H&M rings, Gucci shades, Swarovski & Forever 21 bangles.
Raw hem denim is having a serious affair with my heart. These are the second pair of jeans I've chopped at the ankles and I'm loving the look. It's a little edgy, a little chic and you can do it yourself within a minute. It's a quick way to push your personal fashion box and be slightly ahead of the curve (since this trend hasn't fully caught on yet).
