And A New Star Is Born

As promised on Friday in my post or on the Facebook page, I am introducing to you a new star of this blog, Asos belt you see in the pictures. I assure you it will appear on this blog in many, many post to come. I received this amazing belt from Asos (just under $22 with free shipping) on Thursday night and absolutely had to wear it the next day, no question about it (I also wore it out Saturday night with another outfit). I had a business lunch on Friday and this was my version of a business outfit. Little bit of bright colour to welcome the nice weather, nude pumps and of course, the amazing belt to give it some edge and very minimal jewellery, as the outfit was loud enough on its own. I had a toned down black purse but as I am organizing pictures for this post, I realize that I did not take any pictures with it. Oh well this will do this time J.

Speaking of this belt, I saw it quite some time ago somewhere, can’t quite recall where and found a link to Asos. It was however sold out. I searched everywhere. There are few versions on Ebay but they didn’t appear to be of good quality. I had given up on it eventually, but then I went shopping for a wedding dress (one of many weddings I have this year) and the store carried this belt (minus the spikes), but the price tag was $176. As much as I loved it, I could not justify paying more for the belt then the dress. Granted, the one in the store was leather and this one is not. I personally prefer real leather because pleather (or whatever else name you prefer for it) sometimes looks too cheap or threads get loose too quickly, but I guarantee that this one is really well made. After the shopping, I checked Asos again and found it. I guess it was just meant to be J. What do you think, was this a good way to save a few $$? Ciao!

The Very First Outfit Post

I took a few outfit pictures over the last few days, as I was running around my day and I wasn’t sure what would be the first one to post. I debated and as the days went by and weather changed (it seems every day it was a different season), I decided to go with the very first one I shot. This one I actually took last month at the High Park. It was the last few days when you could see the cherry tree blossom so I did not want to miss out on it. I love spring only for this reason, trees and flowers blossoming. And the fact that it is a sign that the summer is just around the corner (I am still waiting for this corner though), but it is a sign. A little nervous giggle Sweater Costa Blanca, white tee H&M, rings, earrings, necklaces and leggings Forever 21, watch Michael Kors, bag Louis Vuitton, sneakers Urban Planet, sunglasses Ray Ban This is a very casual outfit and very odd for me in the sense that

Have You Visited Positano & Amalfi Coast Yet?

Pants Zara, jacket Zara, sneakers Forever21, bag unknown (Winners), dress unknown ( similar ), ankle boots PrettyLittleThings There are still quite a few more outfits and cities I’ll be featuring on the blog from my last year’s trip to Italy, however today I’m sharing this post from the last location we visited: beautiful Positano. As we visited Italy in the fall, outfits left to share are more fall appropriate, so I will share them come September. I’ll be dealing with two little babies then so God knows how much time I will have to shoot new outfits. As I’m laying on my couch bored out of my mind counting down the days to my delivery next week (whooohoooo!!!) I’m experiencing such FOMO. Partially because I won’t be going on vacation this summer (though becoming a mom to two little girls is quite awesome!!) and partially because I’m reminiscing of my travels last year. Positano seems to still be one of the most photographed summer destinations so I’m sharing a few pictures f

Day two in Montreal, was again walking the beautiful streets of old Montreal and testing out patios, but now in daylight, hehehe. Oh and lets not forget, blog picture taking. I forget how beautiful this city is and am reminded every time I come back. Then, I wonder why I don't come back more often. It is gorgeous, vibrant and people are extremely warm. It has such a European flare, which I often miss, and this is a quick way for me to get that fix once in a while, without having to fly over an ocean. These pictures were snapped around St Denis street as well as around Catherdral Notre-Dame Basilica of Montréal. I was comfortable in my new N

Hopefully, those of you who are moms got to be pampered and spoiled by your kids and partners. I hope you also showed your love to your moms and thanked them for everything they have done for you. We should be doing it every day, but it’s really nice to have a day dedicated to these amazing women. I know how much my mother means to me and she certainly deserves every day to be dedicated just to her. I’m sure all of you feel the same way about your mothers too. Even the sun came out to shine and make Mother’s day even more special. I made sure to go bare legged to welcome the warmth and the sun. Today’s outfit is a cute spring look, easy to pull off. Black and white stripes always make a statement and a little pop of colour just makes the outfit complete. I spent the day out mostly
