Denim Tunic

To be completely honest I really would love to buy a Tory Burch tunic, they are my favourite, one day...the first time I wore this tunic (styled exactly the same way) my mother and sister thought it was Tory's. I wish, no this is Joe Fresh at it's best.

What I was going to Wear...

I was planning to meet up with fellow MumNet & MumVet leaders from the west end of Toronto (MumNet is an amazing organization that is located across the city of Toronto and I've attached a link in case anyone is interested), my daughter was ill and I stayed home with her and just comforted her.

This is what I was supposed to wear...

I find in summer I always need a blazer or sweater because most establishments have the air conditioning turned on High all the time.

Mundane Monday - Neon Lights

I am a child of the 80's so I remember neon...and I liked it! It's back so I decided a nice yellow neon skirt from Ann Taylor was a fun and affordable way to try out this trend. I've styled it very simply and then changed up the accessories and shoes so you could wear it for lunch with your girlfriends or a casual Friday night. Enjoy!

Easy outfit for running errands or running around with the kids. I like the zipper detail on one side of the skirt.

Going out with the girls or casual night out with a few quick accessory additions and changing your shoes. Easy dressing at its best!

Red, White and Black

I love easy and I love red. So here come the pictures...

I didn't like how my hair or face looked in the dressed up photos...not one good picture...So I figured why should you have to look at them too? Anyway by changing my shoes, accessories and handbag I am ready for a night out, now the question becomes where to go?

Blazer - Zara
Pants - Cassis
Top - Joe Fresh
Shoes - Ralph Lauren, Stuart Witzeman
Necklace - Stella & Dot

Best of Me - Coach Blazer

I love this Coach blazer. It just screams IVA, pretty obnoxious but it can't help it...

Paired with denim, a pencil skirt or over a simple blue dress, it just makes the outfit. Casual, formal or somewhere in between. It just does it all.

The shoes are the fun part of this outfit, leopard and the lady...

Bridal Shower Chic

Today I had the pleasure of attending the bridal shower of a close family friend. Everything was perfect and the future bride radiated happiness. I had a chance to catch up with friends and family that are scattered across the southern part of the province and share a special day with a beautiful woman.

This is what I wore...

I've been out of the corporate world for a very long time, however, with a closed toe nude shoe, a jacket or cardigan and I'm sure you could wear this to work. 

These are my favourite shoes, they are comfortable and stylish. The platform is the key.

When you purchase a good handbag it is never out of fashion. My husband bought me this Furla bag in Croatia almost 8 years ago as a "I'm sorry I'm leaving you and our newborn daughter so I can travel Croatia with your parents and sister and have a great time" present. I may not pull it out every year, however, it is as stylish now as it was back then.

The colour is what makes the bag the statement piece of the outfit. Navy and avocado just work.

Some may be wondering if you can mix metallics, I just did and it worked great - silver, rose and gold tones are all neutrals and nothing is over powering.

Another reason I love these shoes - it goes with the avocado handbag and the navy skirt. Just fades away and plays a great "supporting role".

Hoping everyone had a great weekend, I know Tina probably had one of the best!
