Remembering The Details

This is one of the few attempts I make to mix patterns. As soon as I saw the ASOS over sized retro sunnies I knew this was going to be an interesting outfit. That's typically how it goes, one item will set off the entire look I put together. This also goes in real life.
I feel that the sunglasses tortoise print goes well with the Topshop joggers simply because the toned down hues. Yes, the prints are LOUD. However the colors are not. They are separated and neutralized with the cream scalloped jacket (always remember the details) and the satin grey cami (always remember the details).

Bring out the black in the pants with the bag, pumps and accessory and it all ties together! Did you also notice the gold tones tied together with the watch and sunglasses? DETAILS DETAILS DETAILS!

How would you pair these prints?

Trend: Statement Necklaces

After seeing THIS instagramed photo by one of our cherished local boutiques - Barefoot Contessa, I was overjoyed and the statement necklace trend! Sometimes when I think of statement necklaces I think "designer", "expensive", "over-the-top" - but that doesn't need to be the case! I've put my favorite 6 statement necklaces above all from stores that are accessible and affordable for everyone! Some are crazier (3) than others but are all easy to wear!

I myself have quite a few statement necklaces and can't even leave the house without one sometimes! Have you jumped on the statement necklace trend?

Spring, it's upon us

This week in Vancouver we have had some gloomy days and some gorgeous days. The sun stayed out for us all weekend long and the temperature tagged along to match! I was able to leave my house for an entire day with just a chunky sweater and ballerina flats...no wool coat...no socks and boots, #totesamaze!

Since the weather is taking a turn for the better I can't help but think about Spring time outfits. Today's outfit is all about Spring shades and shilouettes with yes, a pop of color!

I came across this great basic stripe sweater from Old Navy and thought "How could this be jazzed up?". It's easy! Even though the sweater already has a detail (the horizontal stripes) it's best to think of it as just a background to your top. You can decorate the foreground with sparkle, color and texture! The below are a few ideas on how to accessorize it.
