Spring Things

Floral pussybow blouse, Zara

In a winter world you have to get your Spring fix somewhere. For me, it's these lovely bright & pastel pieces, purchased on my last day in Vancouver.

A pastel yellow mini satchel, H&M 
Multi-colour statement necklace, Zara
Pastel purple trousers from H&M which I love to pieces! Skinny bottoms with zipper detail too :) 
And this straight-cut pocket detail which I adore as well!
There was another item bought with this set, a pretty cream & gold bangle from H&M. It's currently missing in action sadly. I figured it might simply be lost in the depths of my multiple suitcases, but I was rather disheartened after today's unpacking marathon. I've still a couple cases to go through, so fingers crossed it shows up. 

So those are my lovely new Spring items! Now my only challenge is to incorporate these pretty pastels & florals into a winter appropriate look which also keeps me warm. As long as the gorgeous sunshine continues to cooperate I'll be getting in a photo shoot tomorrow, so stay tuned :)

***One last camera-related note: Many of you have asked me about the camera I generally use. Prior to my last post (aka Vancouver time) all my photos have been taken with a Nikon D7000 (which I love to pieces). For the next couple of months I'll be borrowing my Mom's Canon Rebel T2i. Admittedly I'm a Nikon girl & I have a bit of an aversion to this new Canon; however I do have a tonne of lenses to play with, so it should be a great learning experience none the less!

  14. Oh, Shawna, you scored some amaaazing items! I can't even pick a favorite, or narrow them down because they're all so perfectly pretty! I love pastels. That necklace looks fabulous next to those pants. And oh, that yellow satchel!! Swoon ♥ And I could have every pussybow blouse on the planet and I'd never get tired of them.
