Hello? Is anyone still there? If you're still following along, thank you. It's been a while since my last post (though I've been active on Instagram) and my absence here was very intentional. I haven't felt motivated or inspired, and since this space is something I do truly enjoy, I thought a blogging break was needed in order to get back to producing content I want to post when I want. I even stopped reading other style blogs altogether because they were starting to melt into the same blog for me; every fashion blogger is wearing the same Valentino heels, carrying the same Celine bag, or even styling their homes in the same colour palette. 

Needless to say, it was getting tiresome and with the lack of inspiration, styling, shooting and writing a post took a lot more effort and I didn't have the energy for it anymore. Now I'm back because I want to be. I'm committing to staying true to my own personal style and posting what I genuinely love. I hope you enjoy it and thanks, as always, for reading.

I decided to give the track pants trend a try and I have to say that I'm liking the look. When they're in classic black like this pair from Old Navy, it makes it easy to dress up or down. I love that they can take me from Zumba to cocktails just by switching shoes (I was wearing Converse Chucks with this exact outfit for brunch earlier in the day). Bonus points for comfort!

It's officially autumn and although I'm a little sad that summer is over, I am looking forward to the changing leaves, crisp air and pumpkin spice lattes. Dressing for this transitional season can be tricky, since the mornings are cool and by the afternoon I'm usually sweating through my layers. This breezy dress topped with a leather jacket has fixed my transitional-dressing woes so far. How do you dress for the fluctuating temperatures as the seasons change?

Happy Friday everyone! Here is the second outfit I styled with AMI Clubwear (see the first one here). Kimonos are a new favourite layering piece of mine (also styled one here). They're fantastic to throw on in place of a jacket or sweater because they're incredibly lightweight and I love their boho chic feel. Bonus: they make any outfit look effortless.
