Against the plain: Pt. 8

Here we are again against my plain backdrop! I’m forced to be a little more boring when no one can shoot my look.
Today I chose to throw on a simple black dress with a jean shirt for an added layer and warmth since it’s not too warm in the country’s capital at the moment.
On my feet I’m wearing my newest favorite purchase; some swedish hasbeens clogs ❤
I was doubtful at first because I didn’t know how much wear I’d get out of such a unique shoe but I’m finding myself being able to wear them with pretty much anything!

Have yourselves a great weekend. xo

Against the plain: pt. 4

Hello friends, I hope you’re having a lovely Friday!
Today I’m posting a #flashbackfriday to what I wore last Sunday for Love day! (okay okay I know so much for a flashback…)
I didn’t want to go for a typical full red or pink dress for valentines day so instead I opted for this beautiful silk white dress that gives off a romantic yet classy vibe. I threw the duster coat on since I thought the colours complemented each other perfectly and it worked as an added layer for warmth.
I chose a bold dark red lip instead of my go-to nude for some more drama.
As for jewelry I wanted to keep it very minimal as the focus is on the jacket so I threw on my beautiful silver chain that my boyfriend generously gifted to me for the special day ❤ (thanks bae).
And that’s it!
Wishing you all a happy weekend.

It’s cold outside

Although our winter was quite delayed, the Canadian weather has hit us full force in January. It’s not easy to portray your style and look nice while still keeping warm. I, for one, choose comfort and warmth over fashion during the cold winter months. However I got the chance to style and “model” a look for a fantastic local boutique and I love how it turned out. On top of that…I was quite toasty! I would probably throw on a chunky knit scarf and layers under the jacket for added warmth if I was wearing this for a longer period of time though. All black is a go-to for anyone, furthermore mixing textures adds fun and interest.
