This past weekend was definitely one for the books and one that has been in the works for a couple months.  Just like last year, we planned a cottage long weekend with 18 friends in Fiddler Lake, which was a grand time.

I'd love to share a bunch of pictures if you'd like to see...

KNIT TOP - SUPER ON SALE  |  WAXED PANTS  |  THE BAY NECKLACE - OLD (SIMILAR, LOVE THIS BUDGET-FRIENDLY VERSION)  |  MICHAEL KORS BANGLE (SIMILAR)  |  SWAROVSKI BANGLE  |  GORJANA BANGLE (SIMILAR)

Today I'm sharing a bunch of random snaps from my camera roll, a bunch you've already seen on Instagram but with all the details.  As I've mentioned before, I'm such a pants/shorts girl and Summertime is no different.  I like to pair pants with something sleeveless or more Summery on top and sandals to balance out the look.

The look above is from the H&M fitting room and I purchased both pieces that day.  I'm such a sucker for neutrals and olive green is a current fave.  Both pieces were super on sale and although it feels weird buying cooler weather pieces, Fall will be here before we know it (plus, I've already worn the knit top anyway!).

I'm back with another huge fashion haul for Summertime!  I have to admit, I did buy quite a bit of black but they are all Summery pieces--and most of them came in various colours, I just have an affinity to edgier looking pieces, as you know.  

I also think it's perfectly acceptable to rock dark colours during the warmer months, especially when we are seeing such great fabrics right now like crochet, fringe and pom-poms.

Thanks for watching! xo

Good morning & happy Monday! 

This past weekend wasn't supposed to be busy but turned out to be such, and the weather was beautiful--we are in full Summer mode, and I couldn't be happier.

On Friday I headed out to my parent's place to stay for the weekend to look after our family dog, Peanut.


We hung out on the back deck, soaked up the late afternoon sun and relaxed.  I made that easy tomato-avocado-arugula salad I'm loving and later grabbed some sushi and headed home to get ready for a concert...

This is a typical gym outfit outfit for me (I swap out my kicks for these upon arrival).  I love the edge of the graphic tee paired with the bright coloured shorts.  The open back and strappy sports bra adds some style which is a fun way to make getting to the gym a little easier.  #whatevergetsyouthere 

I've talked quite a bit about working out and my routines over the past couple years and one thing I've always gravitated towards are shorts.  Shorts are a great way to play up your legs and keep cool at the same time.  I rotate between pairing them with a looser fitting graphic tee, or my favourite snugger fitting tanks.  I also love the look paired with a long sleeved tee for when the temperature drops at night or you want to show a little less skin.
