1 Dress 2 Ways

Formal
Dress: Forever 21 s/o
Blazer: Boohoo {similar}
Booties: Target
Feather Necklace: Stitches Outlet
Rose Gold Watch: Geneva 

Casual
Dress: Forever 21 s/o
Sweater: Bluenotes s/o {also styled here}
Rose Gold Watch: Geneva

It is still far too cold here to wear dresses, even with tights it's a daring move. I am dreaming of cute Easter outfits with pastel colored skirts and dresses but I think I will have to be more creative if I plan to leave the house at all! For those of you who have warmer weather, or are brave enough to rock a dress in "sprinter" (spring/winter) here is an excellent way to style your dress for formal and casual events.

Clothing Haul

I have another mini clothing haul, mostly from Boohoo.com. This is another new website for me. I have been browsing on it for a long time but never ordered anything. They offer free shipping to Canada and usually have some sort of promotion on for 10-20% off your order. I am always wary about ordering from new places because I'm not sure how there fitting or quality will be but I am super happy with how this stuff came out! I took a lot of pictures - sorry. 


The colour combination on this playsuit couldnt be more perfect for me. My two favourite colours! I also love the oversized baroque pattern. I would probably like this a bit more if it was a dress but since its so short a playsuit is much more practical. 

This basic tee is a play on the brand Céline & the #selfie obsession. I like the simpleness to this shirt. The cuffed arms are the perfect touch. This will be a great tee for the fall to rock with a pair of skinnies and a leather jacket.  Or for wearing on a lazy day to do errands. 

Sunflower Lace Pencil Skirt $15.95
This co-ord set is actually from Gojane. I wanted to show it off too but its the only thing I ordered from there so I threw it in with this bunch. I have been obsessing over these cute sets and have an event coming up that I wanted to get one for. I shopped around for a few weeks to find the best/most affordable one. I like this one because its white and black and can be built on with any colour accessories, shoes, purse and jacket. 


Isabella Scuba Zip Blazer  $50.00 $35.00 
I am so pleased with this blazer. It could not fit any better. So comfortable and fitted. The sleeves aren't too short, the shoulders aren't frumpy and its snugs in all the right places. I want this blazer in all the basic staple colours; white, black, grey, and whatever else they have! And yes, the zippered pockets are real. 

This blazer is exactly the same as the Isabella one except the texture of the material is "waffle" and the other one is just plain. I love the vibrant colour. Its a cross between fluorescent yellow and green.  I specifically bought this to wear with the co-ord set. An awesome pop of colour. 

I thought the pattern on this skirt was super cute. Midi length high waist skirts seem to be a thing these days and I wanted to try one out. The fit on this one is a bit weird. I think I should have gotten the medium not the large. Its a bit loose and bunches around my stomach/waist.  Hopefully I can find a way to style it so its not so noticeable because its very cute. 

Check out Gojane and Boohoo for yourself, they have some amazing stuff!

Fashion I Can't Get Behind


Harness Heels?
Pictured: Gojane


I can't imagine any situation or event that would make these appropriate or classy.  Other than if you were a dominatrix stripper. I find it hard to believe that people buy these. They are regular $54.60 too. No thank you. Oh, they also come in metallic gold!


Wetsuit Romper
Stacks on Deck Romper: Gojane


A few years ago when the romper started coming back to fashion I had a hard time getting on board. Now they are tolerable, I even own one.  However now they have taken it too far.  You would have to be a size 0 for this to be flattering and even then its just not right. Doesn't look comfortable and why would you wear this? Other than to surfing or scuba diving? Looks like a wet suit to me. 


Maxi Kimono
yellow: boohoo
print: boohoo



I like a regular kimono. I have been trying to find one for the summer. They are light and airy and a good cover up to wear without dying of heat in the summer. I just can't find a pattern I like, a lot of them are pretty wild. I want a basic one so it can be worn with almost anything. I can across these on my search. They look like robes! Why are we turning robes into acceptable day wear?
