The vibrant red, orange and yellow hued leaves are one of my favourite aspects of Fall. I also love being able to pull out my cozy sweaters to wear with tights and boots. This slouchy brown pair of boots have been an Autumn staple of mine for at least the last four years. For more inspiration on Fall boots, check out Marionberry Style, who I'm linking up with today. Happy All Hallow's Eve!

If you live in Vancouver then you would've experienced the crazy thunderstorm we had Tuesday evening. The wild rain and flashes of lightening were quite the spectacle to watch, and it gave the city a much needed cool-down. This gave me the opportunity to wear my fun, horse-print blouse and style it into a Summer look that will also transition well into Fall, which is coming up more quickly than I'd like to admit! Enjoy the weekend and thank you all for reading!

What's making me smile

This weekend marks Canada's 145th birthday and we're celebrating with some festivities and fireworks in our community (weather pending. Vancouver, please read the memo: it's summer!). I hope all my fellow Canadians enjoy the long weekend and here's a peek at the little things that have been making me smile.

The last time I wore this dress and these sandals was back in January for a Winter White look. I've been waiting for warmer weather to arrive so that I could put together a Summer version of this outfit with bright colours and bare legs. I love it when items in my closet can transition between seasons!

I'm also linking up this post to Marionberry Style's Trend of the Month Challenge for June, which is colourful blazers. I had so much fun doing Pretty Shiny Sparkly's Bloggers Do It Better Challenge that I thought, hey, why not do another one?!

Bloggers Do It Better: Mint + Coral

{ Blazer: Zara // Romper: Urban Outfitters (old, similar) // Shoes: BCBGirls (worn here, here and here) // Bag: Louis Vuitton // Sunglasses: H&M // Watch: ToyWatch // Jewelry: MONIKALOVE bracelet by bfrend; random ring; DIY necklace }

When I saw that Pretty Shiny Sparkly's Bloggers Do It Better Challenge was mint and coral, I jumped at the opportunity to style an outfit with these two colours. I already have quite a few coral and mint items in my closet so it was just a matter of deciding what to pair with what. I ended up reaching for my favourite coral romper that I purchased last Spring and a pale sea green blazer. My nails were polished with a touch of mint and coral to play up the colour scheme a little more, and the result is a bright and cheerful outfit that reminds me of macarons (yum!).
