O U T F I T D E T A I L S : FAUX LEATHER JACKET -- ON SALE! | LONG SLEEVE TOP | CHOKER | DARK DENIM SKINNIES | SUEDE BOOTIES (LEATHER VERSION, THIS YEAR'S VERSION + MORE SIZES HERE) | BAG (BUDGET FRIENDLY)
Happy February ladies, how is your week going? I'm feeling so much better than I was on Monday and Tuesday and so thankful because today we are heading to Whistler, British Columbia! We planned this trip before Christmas and have been so excited.
I was seriously worried when I got so ill on Sunday evening that we might have to cancel--seriously, I was feeling that awful, but I think sleeping all day on and off on Monday, and spending the entire day Tuesday in bed (aside from packing that evening) helped ten fold. Additionally, I've been taking tons of vitamins daily, for about a month now in an attempt to prevent getting sick like last time. Obviously it didn't prevent it, but maybe it's helped it not last as long. I'm going to be doing a full video on all the vitamins and supplements I've incorporated into my daily routine soon!
Finally, the outfit! This faux leather jacket has become a new favourite--when I tried it on during the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale last July, it was a piece I was most looking forward to. I wasn't sold on it then, but after the prices went back up, I totally regretting not getting it! Fast forward to Boxing Day, and they marked it down so I snagged it. It's such an expensive looking piece for a great price + still on sale.

Good morning & apologies for the delay in the Weekend Snaps. After editing these photos on Sunday night, I got so sick and have been bed ridden ever since. I'm writing from bed, but actually able to function a little more today, which is a mass improvement from sleeping on and off all day on Monday.
We had a great weekend, and headed up to Tremblant on Friday night for a getaway with friends. We shared a cottage rental just outside the village and it was such a cute place! We arrived late, had some drinks and chats, played Taboo and headed off to bed.
The next morning...
BELL SLEEVE SWEATER -- ON SALE!
Happy Sunday ladies, we got home from our cottage ski weekend in Tremblant and have been hanging out all afternoon (you can probably still catch a mini recap on Instagram Stories). We skied yesterday and the conditions were pretty good, so much warmer than the last few times which made it way nicer. We debating going again today but decided to give the legs a rest since we are heading to Whistler in a few days!
I just got the sweater I'm wearing in the pic above last weekend and now it's half price! *shakes fist* Such a steal, super comfy & and comes in a stone blue colour as well. Full outfit post coming soon.
I wanted to start off by saying thank you so much for all your amazing feedback and comments on the Reader Survey. There was a ton of love, and I so appreciate and love you guys so much. I was expecting a lot of of constructive criticism, to be honest, but it was a lot of helpful suggestions and great insight.
A huge thing that was mentioned by the majority was the desire for more personal posts. I love sharing parts of life here, but like I've mentioned before, it can sometimes be hard to open up on the Internet. However, I want to connect with you girls on a deeper level than just clothes and shoes, and so I will be sharing way more this year from beefing up the Weekend Snaps, to random daily happenings to vlogging everyday life and more.
Your feedback has sparked excitement in me and I feel really motivated to create some fun posts moving forward, and I'm so grateful for the time you took to fill out the survey; it means a lot, and I appreciate every word you wrote.
With that, I wanted to answer some specific comments that came up frequently and share a little more of what 2017 has in store for us.
O U T F I T D E T A I L S : FLORAL CARDIGAN -- ON SALE! | JOE FRESH CAMI (SIMILAR, SIMILAR) | NECKLACE | MEXX SKIRT (SIMILAR, LOVE THIS) | OVER THE KNEE BOOTS -- 50% OFF! | VINTAGE CLUTCH
I'm one of those people who love Valentine's Day, and it doesn't have to be over the top, but just acknowledging it and doing something special for your sweetie is totally up my alley. Marco feels a little differently, but he puts on a brave face for me!
One thing you typically won't find me in for Valentine's Day is a tight red dress, but give me a leather skirt, or a flowy top and I'm in. This outfit is a little off the beaten path, but it still works for the special day. It's definitely date-night appropriate and this floral cardigan is such a stunning piece and now it's half price! I had it on my wish list for Christmas and my parents got it for me, I was really excited when I opened it. An alternative way to wear this would be to pair the cardigan over a little black dress--so simple but just adds a pop of interest.
Another question I've gotten on this, 'What if I'm short?' You can still wear a long piece like this; it's a total misconception that petite girls can't wear maxi styles. The best way though, is to lengthen the look by pairing with heels--whether a pump or a tall boot, you want to elongate your leg for the best look.
