Another one of these! Are you rolling your eyes yet? Or do you actually kinda, sorta enjoy them now? I’m slowly getting up to date! I’m currently sitting on a train while I write this and I actually find this really productive. Maybe I should take more train rides to get more blog posts done? I don’t think my bank account would appreciate that lol. 
Outfit #1: This look was created around these “special” jeans. @alyssainthecity is one of my favourites on Instagram and she wore these jeans with really wide legs. Here’s the photo here: 
Her legs looked long af. Anyways, I noticed we carry a similar silhouette at TOPSHOP and made sure to get an extra long length to recreate the look! These jeans are the “Crop” jeans. I got a 24/32. I added a leopard belt, my favourite blouse that Emma Roberts owns as well (I’ve talked about this before), and this corduroy button-up that I used as an extra layer/jacket! I wore the pearl bag from Forever21, gold hoop earrings, and my white booties to complete the look.
Outfit #2: OKKKKK. There’s this brand of bags that I have been obsessed with since Fashion Week in Copenhagen. Nunoo bags are so freaking cute. I follow them on Instagram. They have lovely colour ways. The brand was created by these two sisters that have the sickest of styles. This outfit was inspired by them. Here’s the inspo photo(s) right here: 
Normally I would think denim shorts and tights to be a little juvenile. Like, I look 16 years-old already, we don’t need to make this worse, amirite? These women nail it though and I was like, “Damn, I wanna nail this too!” So ya, this is it. I added my poofy sleeve blouse, my leopard booties, layered some necklaces, and also added my F21 bag. Would have LOVED to add a Nunoo bag in this mix but you know, some things are better dreamt?
Outfit #3: GINGHAM BB. I don’t know what it is, but your girl has to be vvv careful she doesn’t switch up her wardrobe for like, everything GINGHAM. I’m obsessed. The print is so cute, no?! I loved the way these pants looked with my cowboy boots. I have to try to not wear this combo too much lol. The top is old TOPSHOP. It’s still in pretty good condition for being a white top! Normally, or maybe it’s just me, white tops start to look a little yellow-y after a while, but not this one! For some colour I added my yellow printed headband and for a bag I wore my straw/raffia bag that I find so so cute. This is such a summer look and I can’t wait for it to start actually feeling like summer!
Outfit #4: These pants are 4 years old. Now that I think of it, I think I’ve been recycling a lot of old pieces lately and I’m proud of that. There are just some pieces that can last you forever and I think these pants are no exception. The print is perfect for this season. I love the combination of neutral colours. It looks *great* (as seen in my photo) with a white t-shirt. To complete this look I added my corduroy cropped jacket for some texture, black sandals, and my pearl bag from F21!
Outfit #5: You’ll start to notice that during spring and summer, I like to wear a lot of denim pieces. I’m talking denim in all forms. Denim jackets especially. This dress is actually one of my favourites. It’s from the Petite section at TOPSHOP and I purchased it last year! I love how it fits. It just hugs my body in all the right areas (this is rare for me). I wore a graphic t-shirt underneath it because it’s just not that warm yet to wear it by itself. I added my snakeskin booties and last but not least, my silver woven shoulder bag.
There you have it! Another “What I Wore Last Week” for the books! I hope you enjoyed it! I think I have about two more to write lol.
Until next time!

Outfit #1: These picnic blanket wide leg pants have been exactly what I wanted and more. I find myself wearing them WAY MORE than I had ever expected. Like, I thought I would have donated them by now but they’re still here! Really just wanted the pants to shine and to add some fun accessories so I just wore a cropped t-shirt on top. It’s in a very cute custard yellow colour and I love it. I wore these “mama-sized” (it’s what they call them, I swear!) pearl hoop earrings that I am now obsessed with. I think they’re super cool and add spunk to literally everything. I also wore that transparent tortoiseshell purse that I’ve talked about so much in my “April Favourites 2019” post (give that a read if you haven’t already ;))! My shoes are from last year and I got them in black as well. They’re super comfy and easy to slip on with *almost* every look!
Outfit #2: I don’t think there’s been a week where I didn’t wear my cowboy boots on at least one of the days lol. I think my cowboy boots look great with denim and great with white. For this outfit, I wore a denim skirt that I have had for SO LONG but it still fits me and does everything I want from a denim mini skirt. I paired it with my neon sleeveless sweater/top and added an old favourite, my check blazer with my initials embroidered in the sleeve! For accessories I wore a pearl hair clip, my “A” pendant necklace from Amazon, gold hoop earrings, and my Gucci baby.
Outfit #3: I don’t know if I’ve been vocal about this (LOL jk), but I am completely head-over-heels in love with everything Ariana Grande. She’s a goddess and I love her. Periodt. We’ve had two shirts come through but for TOPMAN and not TOPSHOP. Don’t ask me why! But that clearly didn’t stop me from purchasing one of them. The other shirt was black and I felt like that was boring compared to this cool nude-y pink colour. It is oversized so I feel like I have a few constraints when trying to create an outfit. I have to think about not looking like a pile of fabric and making sure whatever I wear on my bottom is more fitted. This time I chose to wore my black Jamie jeans with the western buckles down the sides of the legs. I think it brings more to the look instead of wearing just plain skinny jeans. For shoes I wore the same grey heeled sandals from “Outfit #1”. And finally, I added a shell choker necklace and two black snappy hair clips (is that what they’re called lol?) to complete this somewhat 90s look.
Outfit #4: These pants/wide leg jeans were $24 on clearance. I couldn’t say no to them because a) they’re my size in Petite and b) they’re super comfortable (like wearing pjs)!!! The draw string is a cute touch. It makes them pretty casual so I paired it with a “fancier”/more girly blouse. I wore this top a lot last summer and I’m looking forward to wearing it some more. I love the shoulder detailing and I also love that I can wear it without a bra (tmi?). To spice this outfit up a little, I accessorized with my large heart shaped pearl earrings, my headband that’s covered in birds, and of course, Gucci baby. I also wore the black version of those heeled sandals for shoes.
Outfit #5: This printed skirt has been harder to style than I thought. I just have no clue what to wear as a top! I know I could probably use any coloured graphic t-shirt or blouse but I’m not loving anything in my wardrobe currently. So I stuck with a black crop top and a denim jacket, and just wore fun accessories to make it a little more fun. I got this cute bag made out of fake pearls from Forever 21. It really reminds me of a Shrimps purse but I got it for a much, much lower price. I got it for $20. It was also during a 30% off promotion on all their bags, so I took that as a sign. I’ve been wearing it a lot since I’ve bought it and have a feeling it’s going to be a “May favourite”. For the rest of this outfit, I wore silver heart shaped hoop earrings and my snake print booties!
I wore this outfit because I loved this metallic slip dress that we just got at TOPSHOP. I bought it because I think it’ll be easy and breezy once summer finally gets here. It’s probably best worn for a birthday or some other kind of fancy/dramatic event, but I want to wear it casually and I’m always up for a challenge! I added chunky combat boots and a denim jacket. I had originally pictured it with a t-shirt underneath, no jacket. The t-shirt I picked was too bulky, so I had to scratch that idea. I still think it turned out well! If I were to wear this outfit again, I think I would add more colour somehow. You guys know me ;))
As always, and I swear it’s not super intentional. I mean, I do work at TOPSHOP so can you really blame me if 80% of my wardrobe is from there? I would try to branch out but like, I wouldn’t really wear it anywhere. I can’t wear it to work. Well, I could but it would be annoying to send business elsewhere ha-ha. Okay, so maybe it is intentional. I really do love our brand though. I can achieve any look I want with TOPSHOP. For this outfit I wore this cute sleeveless neon sweater/top with my favourite jeans right now: Editors. The Editor jeans are like Straight jeans but they’re looser and give me that boyfriend-look without having a dropped crotch LOL. You get what I’m sayin’? They’re great jeans and we have like 3 washes so maybe these guys will stick around for more than just one season! My fingers are crossed. For shoes, I wore these pink-y nude booties with the “hardwood” heel. You guys have seen these before! For accessories, I wore my favourite initial pendant necklace that I love so much I bought a back-up. I also wore a pearl hair clip from my favourite Korean boutique on Queen West, Durumi (@thedurumi). They honestly have the cutest things in there. Part of me is scared to spread the word because I don’t want all the cute things to be gone before I get there aha-ha! Finally, I wore my little snakeskin crossbody bag but I tucked the chain inside and just used the top handle. I love this bag!! I got it around Christmas time and she still makes me sooo happy!
1. Game of Thrones: I’m pretty sure this is the only show I watched during the month of April – and until yesterday I was still watching it because the last episode of Season 8/THE ENTIRE SERIES HAPPENED LAST NIGHT. What did you guys think of it?!! Disappointed? Satisfied? .. Loved it? Anyways, being the genius that I am, I thought around the end of March that I should re-watch EVERY SINGLE BLOODY EPISODE of GoT before the new season started on April 14th. I gave myself TWO weeks to watch 7 SEASONS OF GAME OF THRONES. It was literally like, 3-4 episodes a night. It was messed. up. I was a little behind on Season 8 Episode 1 but it all worked out! I avoided spoilers and overall I’m glad I did it! If you still have never watched an episode of this series, I highly recommend you get on it. Especially now that it’s officially over, you can binge the entire freaking thing! No time constraints! You’ll LOVE it, I swear.
3. Jade roller: I know a lot of people probably have mixed feelings about these jade roller things. I think there’s also a pink one made from rose quartz or whatever? I personally don’t know where I stand with these contraptions but I can tell you that I do feel a difference and I do like the feeling it gives me while using it. Honestly, it could all be in my head. It’s meant to do a ton of really great things for your face like: reduce puffiness and under eye circles, stimulate blood circulation, tighten pores, brighten your complexion, etc. I can’t say I really see any of this happening to my face but it feels good! And if this is happening to my face and I don’t even know it, that’s sick! I won’t complain! I know some of these things can be like $50 and I promise you that I did not pay that much for something I was unsure about. I bought my jade roller at Winners for $8. If you’re curious about a jade roller and would like to give it a shot, go to Winners! It’ll make you feel less guilty if you end up not seeing/feeling a difference at all! Is it real jade? Who knows lol.
5. Skincare: Let me start off by saying, I have no clue what got into me last month. I am a soap and water kind of gal. I am not high maintenance when it comes to washing/taking care of my face and I never have been. Is that terrible? I usually just buy whatever is on sale at Shoppers Drug Mart and my boyfriend makes fun of me for it lol. He got me the Drunk Elephant “Lala Retro Whipped Cream” moisturizer and I don’t think I can use a Shoppers’ moisturizer ever again. This Drunk Elephant one is so good! Aside from a new face moisturizer and a jade roller, I’ve been using sheet face masks a lot lately. I’ve also decided to start using Bio Oil more religiously because I have some pimple scars that kind of bother me. They’re recent scars, too! I tried a sample of SK-II (I really wanted to play with skincare!!) and it broke me out pretty bad. All in all, it’s been a great month for my skin. I’ve realized that not everyone needs to use the fancy/expensive stuff. Some people’s skin only need the basics! Like water! I’ve been drinking a lot more water lately and it definitely shows despite that I still think I could be drinking more.
8. The Sun Is Also a Star by Nicola Yoon: FULL DISCLOSURE: I only bought this book and was interested in reading it when I found out that Charles Melton was playing a lead role. Does this make me a terrible person? I’m sorry! I just find him so handsome! I can’t wait to see the movie when it comes out on May 17th. Are any of you excited? As far as the story goes, I think it’s pretty cute. Whether or not I believe it can really happen to a person is another story. It’s basically about a young couple that falls in love pretty quickly but life’s not exactly on their side. I know that’s really vague but trust me, it’s different from most love stories like this. It’s pretty unique and I think it’ll be a good movie! I would give you more details but you guys should know by now that if I say anything more I’ll probably ruin the entire story for you.
9. CUBA: Where do I begin?!! I think if I have to pick my favourite thing about Cuba, it would be the sun & the ocean. I loved Havana (especially old Havana because the old buildings were amazing) but we don’t have heat and an ocean like they do! I’m obsessed with both. I swear that I belong near the ocean and somewhere hot. Cuba has the best beaches that I have ever seen. The water is so blue! I know the sun isn’t great for your skin but I feel happier with a tan! I’m currently working on a little project that will show you how much fun I had in Cuba but I don’t want to share it just yet! Just know that my trip will be fully disclosed very, very soon!
Outfit #1: My cowboy boots came out to play, again! It was warmer this week so I was able to let my legs out! Woo-hoo! ;)) This is my favourite and only blue denim pinafore, and I’ve worn it a lot within the last couple of years! I am so glad that it’s slowly getting warmer and that I can finally start wearing it again. Underneath my pinafore I wore a ribbed polo t-shirt with a three-quarter zip. Iโve spoke about it before but I canโt get over how great it fits! I also added this printed headband for some colour to this outfit, some silver hoops earrings and of course, my Gucci baby.
Outfit #2: I got a lot of compliments on this outfit and to be honest with you, I was inspired by the lobster earrings that I was wearing (which you cannot see in this photo lol). I wore my yellow cropped pants and a thrifted โmaybe real or maybe fakeโ Gucci sweater? It was $20 at Value Village so I doubt it, but I love it and it looks sick paired with yellow! This day here was the beginning of an obsession with this transparent tortoiseshell purse. I love this purse!!! It fits more than you’d expect and I love that I can see everything that’s in it so it’s much easier to find my metro pass or my house keys. For shoes I wore my white booties and to mix it up a little (because there was finally some sun), I wore these pink cat-eye sunglasses from Aldo! Iโve always been a sucker for their sunglasses.
Outfit #3: A Canadian tuxedo day. My favourite Binx jeans from TOPSHOP and my favourite cropped denim jacket with a raw hem seems to be the best denim-on-denim look for me! The washes match pretty well and I love the way they fit together! To add some colour/personality, I wore my leopard boots and added a gold chain belt. For a top, I wore this ribbed sleeveless top that has a matching skirt. You might recognize it from a previous blog post but since then Iโve found that it goes and looks good with a lot in my wardrobe. Iโm very happy I bought it :))
Outfit #4: This is an oldie but a goodie! The grey slip dress I’m wearing is from a couple years ago and I found it in a bag that I had previously packed full of clothes I wanted to give away! I forgot that I had left it in there! I clearly couldn’t let it go. However, it has these really thin straps and I felt that it was a little too much exposure for work, so I threw on one of my favourite printed blouses over it. It’s this blouse covered in tigers and I am shocked at how good the quality is of it. I mean, itโs not 100% silk or anything like that. It just looks the same way it did when I bought it and I’ve washed it sooo many times! I wore my patent combat boots for shoes and added my transparent tortoiseshell purse. For jewellery, I wore a cute hair clip, my chunky lock necklace, and another pair of hoop earrings! I have so many versions of hoop earrings that I feel like I could do a whole blog post on them. Should I???
Outfit #5: This is my FAVOURITE suit! My power suit! That suit that just makes you feel so good? You know those ones? I forget about this suit because when it’s this bright of a colour, I feel like I can’t wear it too often or people will start to notice. Do I really care? Not really. But it is definitely a suit you canโt forget! Itโs from TOPSHOPโs Petite department a couple of years ago and it fits so perfectly on me. Iโve tried other suits from the Petite department this year and they just donโt fit the same!!! And I donโt know why! It makes me sad but at least I have this one that I can try to keep forever. To make this suit less formal and business-y, I added my checkered slip-on VANS and one of my favourite graphic t-shirts. I think this is the best way to make a suit more casual.
