Summer Staples

I'm attending the Jennyfleur Loves fashion show tonight, so with a prospective busy day ahead I thought I'd sneak in a little outfit post while the morning is still young :)

I wore this a couple days ago for an afternoon stroll downtown & then out to supper with the girls. Unlike most days, I didn't have to think too much about this outfit. It was the first thing I put together & I felt it worked well. It features three of my newest items: Steve Madden pistol boots, H&M denim jacket,  & an oversized neon green tee from Gap. The boots are my favourite; I've been wearing them non-stop all week. Same goes for the denim jacket. Along with the maxi skirt, they are all great staple pieces for Summer! 

Going-away supper for Sabrina (in the coral) at my favourite vegan restaurant in Vancouver, The Naam!

Naam Salad starter with parsley tahini dressing - so so good!

Being crafty & lazy at the same time. I didn't have time to run out for a pair of spandex shorts & desperately needed something to layer under my sheer skirt. These white leggings worked, but I didn't like the length showing. Stubbornly refusing to take off my boots, I just cut them off. Hey, it worked. 

I'm off to catch up on my sleep (worked at 4AM this morning, eesh) & then a little shopping! I'll be sure to post photos from tonight's show as soon as possible :)

On Airports & Goodbyes

I'm writing to you lovelies from YVR Airport... boarding in about 15 minutes. I just wanted to quickly share a few photos with you of my last few days here in Vancouver.

Had a lovely last day with Kris yesterday. We shopped, we ate, we talked non-stop. I'll show you my new purchases as soon as I get things unpacked in NL (so excited about each new piece! Think Spring + Pastels ;) We stopped by Mucho Burrito on Davie to say goodbye to one of the nicest guys in the world (I frequent the place tri-weekly) & get one last amazing Shawna-approved burrito. And just when we thought the day was over, we ended up talking for 2 hours straight over tea. It was perfect :)

The amazing Kris! One of the nicest, most amazing girls I've ever been lucky enough to meet - I am going to miss you so much! And something I'm dying to mention: Kris actually just began her own fashion blog Back Alleys & Boulevards which I would love for you all to check out! :)

A delightful goodbye present from Kris - a bag of vegan chocolate goodies from Karmavore :)

Tea with Miss Sabrina! We completely lost track of time & talked non-stop for hours. You're amazing girl - can't wait to see you again!

The most amazing dessert ever. Vegan apple crisp with Tofulatti icecream on top. So good I went back two nights in a row for it.... I kid you not. 

And last but not least, a new clutch which just arrived from ASOS! It's cute & fun & I adore the colours. Excited to see what I can pair it with. Thoughts?

Okay, boarding has begun & I'm in a huge rush. Will post tomorrow when I've settled! Hope you're all having an amazing week & thank you for reading! :)
