In character.

Dress: Pink Martini (from Bamboo Ballroom)

Heels: Nine West (similar here)

Sunglasses: H&M

Necklace: Forever 21 (DIY)

Something about these kookie sunglasses and pleated dress made me feel like I was playing a character in a play. I adore the pastel colours that seem to be in for spring. 

Are you feeling the pastel trends for spring? Do share please!

Stepping into Spring.

Dress: C/O Egocloset

Vest: Forever 21

Shirt: Joe Fresh

Sunglasses: H&M

Heels: Vintage 

Cuff & Ring: Borrowed from Vickie

Nothing says spring to me like a good floral print. So you can imagine I was a happy camper when the lovelies at Ego Closet sent me over this BB Dakota floral dress. Since the weather has warmed up a bit I could wear bare legs but I was not quite brave enough to bare the shoulders. Hence the layering above & turning the dress into a skirt.

If you are lucky enough to live in the Vancouver area Ego Closet is having a Warehouse Sale coming up this week. To find out all the information click here. You must go for me!  

I hope you all had a wonderful weekend & enjoyed some beautiful spring weather like us!

Sorry I have been bad at updating this blogspot account, you can see more over at my Tumblr blog, Kastles.

Spring Time.

Skirt: Anthropologie

Tee: Splendid

Sweater & Shoes: Urban Outfitters

Necklace: Erica Weiner

For some reason Edmonton is experiencing spring like weather for the last couple of weeks. I am not complaining but enjoying it by getting away without wearing tights (although I should apologize for my pasty legs). I am going to embrace it while I can because knowing Edmonton freezing weather and tons of snow will be around the corner.

It's my party.

Dress: H&M

Belt: Joe Fresh

Clutch: Deux Lux

Shoes: Badgley Mischka

Earrings: BangBang Bijoux

Lipstick: Heat Wave by Nars

This is what I wore last night for my birthday date with my husband. The dress I got as a Christmas gift, and I am excited to add it to my wardrobe! I think it will be great paired with a cozy cardigan and some boots. I also am crushing on the bright cobalt blue colour. I think bright colours are going to be a huge spring for trend, which I will gladly be embracing.

Channeling Serena.

Sweater: Free People (Bamboo Ballroom)

Tee: Lauren Moshi

Jeans: H&M

Boots: Joe Fresh

Hat: Anthropologie

Necklaces: Bitchin Beads & Erica Weiner

A lot of television shows I watch mostly for the costume design. One of my favourites is Gossip Girl (no surprise there). Some days I am more drawn to dressing like Blair, some days like Serena. Today I feel is a Serena day. 

I was beyond thrilled to pick up this sweater from Bamboo Ballroom the other day. It is cozy and unique. I know I will be getting a lot of wear out of it. Can’t you see it now? Paired with a knit dress and some tall boots? I can’t wait to wear it more! 

I hope everyone is enjoying their week!

Mixing patterns.

Dress: Anthropologie

Sweater: c/o Shoppalu

Purse: Matt&Nat

Necklace: Erica Weiner

Belt: Vintage

Ring: Bitchin Beads

Bracelets: Assortment (CC Skye, Erica Weiner,etc)

When I went over to my parents the other day my Mom looked at this outfit and proclaimed I didn’t’ match. That is why I am here to tell you all that you can mix patterns. For one I feel leopard print is a neutral and can be mixed with anything. This cardigan is no exception to the rule. 

Are you comfortable mixing patterns? Do share?

Little Black Dress.

Dress: H&M

Necklace: Gift

Belt, Shoes & Tights: Joe Fresh

You can’t go wrong with a  little black dress. Especially if it reminds you of Marc Jacobs Fall 2011 (for a fraction of the cost).

Lets talk about how my lovely sister-in-law made me this beautiful necklace for Christmas! And how she took these pictures, and even edited them for me! Check out her photography company with my brother-in-law here!

Vintage Goodies.

Dress and Clutch: Vintage (New York)

Shoes: Badgley Mischka (similar here)

Earrings: Vintage

This outfit consists of my favourite vintage pieces that I have acquired over the years. This dress was a wonderful find in a flea market in New York years ago. It is a special dress that you can only pull out on certain occasions. Christmas and New Years Eve parties are the perfect occasion for such a dress!

Please check out the Bamboo Ballroom’s Facebook page where I just entered this look into a contest! I could win a fabulous prize! *Fingers crossed!*
