A Corset Top Styled The Romantic Way

Every now and then a season really resonates with me. And SS17 is by far surpassing my expectations. Dainty accents like ruffles and lace I’m all for. Although as much as I like blush pink it’s not my be all and end all of the season. Now corsets and the corset top, they may be the ones to slay me. I love lace up anything, so the transtion to corsets is welcomed by me. As romantic as a corset top can be, they also have an edgy side to them. Actually I think that’s why they resonate so well with me. I can be such a chameleon when it comes to dressing so I appreciate that I can pull off a dainty romantic look like this, and then wear this same corset top with a pair of ripped jeans the next day for a completely different look.

May Favourites Roundup

The month of May has been good in terms of newly discovered beauty products and other pretty little things. I wanted to share with you a few of my favourites from this month.

Viktor & Rolf Flowerbomb perfume

Flowerbomb. What can I say…I mean the name pretty much speaks for itself. Flowerbomb has been on my wishlist for quite some time now and I finally decided to pick one up for myself. I adore so many different perfumes, but this by far has to be my favourite. In my opinion, it’s one of the most beautiful scents out there. You should try it out if you haven’t experienced it yet. Mind blowing.  Continue reading “May Favourites Roundup”

The Cutest Nude Clutch I Ever Did See

Our weather has been so up and down lately. One minute we’re in double-digit Springlike temperature and the next day it’s snowing. While it does make outfit planning a little challenging, one thing I can rely on is my Madewell cardigan keeping me warm. I picked this one up from the Nordstrom x Style Democracy sale a while back and it’s quickly become my go-to staple. I’ve combined chunky cardigans with delicate fabrics before and am really enjoying the effect of the cardigan paired with a dainty dress. I’m always such a sucker for mixing different textures, especially ones that contrast each other.

Now technically I could have worn this look with OTK boots but was going for a Spring vibe hence the white flats. And speaking of Spring, now we must talk about this nude clutch. This googly-eyed cutie stole my heart the minute I laid eyes on it during the Poppy & Peonies SS17 preview. It’s simple and so fun – and that tassle detail!! (Which is also removable in case you’re not a fan).

That’s actually one of the things I was impressed about when learning about the Poppy & Peonies line during the preview; all of the bags are so versatile! The line comes in a variety of the cutest pastel colours and offer many styling options. Such as interchangeable straps, front flaps and fringes. Poppy & Peonies bags are made to help you with life. Think having a cooler section at the bottom of your bag for your lunch – oh yes it’s true! There were many other gorgeous bags in the line as well, with this clutch lineup being available in a lovely range of pastels. Having said that, this nude clutch really stood out though…maybe it’s because it was looking at me the whole time ;o)
