O U T F I T  D E E T S :  URBAN PLANET TOP (SIMILAR, WHITE, LOVE THIS ONE)  |  URBAN PLANET CAMI (SIMILAR) |  URBAN PLANET SHORTS (SIMILAR)  |  WEDGES, SOLD OUT (PREVIOUSLY OWNEDSIMILAR)  |  BAG  |  SUNGLASSES

Confession: this is not my bag but it is now.  My girlfriend came over on the weekend carrying this awesome fringe bag that I'd been eyeing but didn't pick up and it made me fall harder for it.  You know when you see someone else wearing something you weren't sure of, and it kind of seals the deal?  This bag (and also this one too) was it for me.  She kindly let me borrow it to shoot this outfit and I went out and purchased it the next day!  I love how the fringe lightens the mood of the look.

Secondly, this isn't an actual twin set, but I loved the look of crochet on crochet so I went for it.  Funnily enough, all of these pieces came from the same store, but over the last four years (remember when I first got these shorts?  Fun fact: I wore them on my first date with Marco).


On Friday night, we had six of our friends over for a home-made pizza night.  Everyone brought something--salad, desserts, appetizers--and Marco whipped up his signature Italian style pizzas which were a huge hit.



Last weekend, we decided to go on a fancy date night (ie. not Vietnamese food, which you guys know I'm obsessed with) and hit up Rare in Kanata.  Marco had been once but it was my first time and it did not disappoint...


O U T F I T  D E E T S :   KIMONO  |  BANANA REPUBLIC TANK (SIMILAR, SIMILARSPLURGE)  |  WHITE SKINNIES  |  GOLD SLIDES (SIMILAR, ATHLETICHIC)  |  FRINGE BAG  |  SUNGLASSES

My love for kimonos started last year when they began popping up in stores and I searched and searched for one to take with me when we went to Punta Cana.  This year, I'm loving the fringe on the bottom of this one--something I wasn't too keen on last year.  It feels super boho and pretty, plus it sways when you walk, so, hello.

While I'm wearing this over white skinnies, a kimono looks pretty over a dress or a two-piece set to add a bit of interest and cover you up a bit more if needed.  It's also a great item to throw in your suitcase for vacation to double as a beach cover-up and a scarf for your bag!

I have been craving some new sunglasses for this year and want to up my game with some trendier styles, without forking out a ton of cash.  I've rounded out seven of my favourite styles right now (I'm heavy into the cat eye, as you can tell) that won't break the bank.  I just picked up these and these last night and can't wait to wear them all Summer long.
