If I were to tell you that it was -30°C/-22°F on the afternoon that we took these pictures, would you believe me? My boyfriend picked me up from work and since we didn’t want this outfit to go to waste we attempted taking a few photos. I cannot tell you how cold it was! Especially with gusts of bone chilling wind. We took a few shots as quickly as possible, in between my chattering teeth. In all honestly, I wasn’t going to publish these photos, because they were a write off to me. (Maybe I was just discriminating against them because of the suffering associated with them). Nevertheless, I decided to publish them in the end to make all of that suffering somewhat worth it. I am SO over winter.

Hope you are enjoying your Sunday! xo

Victoria’s Dress

With flowers and leaves about to bloom, the feel of Spring just around the corner, one can’t help but think of Prom and other formal events that follow as the seasons progress. Which in turn stirs thoughts of delicate cuts of lace, beautifully detailed beading, layers of chiffon, and elegantly crafted plunging necklines. Memorable moments waiting to be created require that perfect dress, and if you have a formal event coming up then I would urge you to visit Victoria’s Dress to check out some of their stunning pieces. Victoria’s Dress is an online shop that offers a wide selection of dresses for all occasions including wedding dresses, prom dresses, evening dresses, cocktail dresses, and even ball gowns!

The feminine silhouettes of their dresses come alive with flowing chiffon covered in beautiful bead work, and for the more glamorous; pieces with intricate lace applique and just enough jewels to make you feel like a princess on your special day.  It’s pieces like this that will make their way into your most cherished memories and events. Here are some of my favourite dresses that I would love to twirl around in, that also capture the essence of their 2015 line.

Leopard & Plaid

Jacket & Leggings, Winners. Hoodie, TNA (Aritzia). Cardigan, H&M. Shirt, Lulus. Short, Bedo. Boots, Dollhouse (here). Bag, Gucci. Sunnies, Ray Ban. Bralette, Nasty Gal. Maxi collar, Hudson’s Bay.

 
Wearing multiple layers consisting of: leopard & plaid, lace, faux fur and vegan leather, to stay warm. Sorry for the lack of posts, but it has just been too cold to venture outside, and I’ve been hibernating any chance I get.
