I wore this outfit to a day at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. I went to the Andy Warhol exhibit and fell in love. Knee socks are back and look perfect with some black booties. I love this slip from Free People because it can be worn alone or paired with an oversized sweater or cardigan. It is a staple in my closet as it can be worn in every season.

As the days get shorter, and winter gets closer, my outfits are a hybrid of warm and cool weather pieces. Ankle jeans, wool blazer and flip flops, anything goes.
This J. Crew jeweled collar Regent Blazer has been a go-to piece for me the past few weeks because it’s warm enough to act as outerwear for now, and stylish enough for anything.
This was such a fun outfit to pull together. All the…
Crop top for a night out? Why not. Keeping with my rule that it has to be paired with a longer separate, and going all black this time.
This particular top has some killer back detail!
Midi type skirts have been a favourite of mine for years because I’m tall, but this year they’re finally trendy! And you can see why. They’re so much fun to dance in.
I went to a pool party this weekend, and kept it simple with the Hawaiian Sunset print from J. Crew. The long sleeves on the popover were perfect for when the temperature cooled down in the evening.
The little sunglasses necklace from Marc by Marc Jacobs was my favourite touch.
Hat, shorts and top from J. Crew, bikini is so old I couldn’t even begin to guess…., necklace Marc by Marc Jacobs,…
I love this Lion King tank top from Hot Topic, but I wasn’t really sure it was something I could work into my day to day wardrobe. I guess I had forgotten the golden rule of the season, a statement necklace is the solution for everything!
I picked the J. Crew stone burst necklace, because the colours complement the shirt perfectly!
The black maxi skirt is dressier than leggings or jeans, and…
I’m rocking the J Crew Cove Floral print today. The drawstring pants are comfortable, and perfect for work or weekend.
The J Crew Grande Crystal Drops necklace dresses up anything! And while the pink in the tee shirt doesn’t really match the pants, they still go together.

This is a really great spring outfit. Versatile for many reasons. It’s also the first time this year I’ve worn sandals! Granted, with a sweatshirt, but still!
The graphic print on the J. Crew vintage sweatshirt in metallic triangles detracts from the fact that it’s JUST a sweatshirt, and the boyfriend jeans give it an unexpected pop.
These sandals are my very favourite. They’re J. Crew from…
My cropped pants are certainly going the extra mile this spring. It’s too cold to have anything but your ankle uncovered, but at least I don’t feel like I’m in my winter clothes!
I’m not usually a fan of graphic tees (although I have been known to break the rule with concert tees), but under enough jewelry, and with a pair of printed pants, maybe they aren’t so bad!
No sign of green grass yet, so I’m adding a springy vibe with this citrus print sweater. Midi skirts are really in this spring, I’m still wearing mine with tights….
Paired with the J. Crew Stone Burst necklace for a bit of colour.

You can’t really see it in this photo, but the snow is starting to melt! That means transitional pieces are a must. This sequined maxi skirt is a great one, because it’s heavy enough to keep out the chilly spring winds, but you can skip the tights on warmer days. One layer down!
Light coloured chambray is perfect for this time of year. Casual and fresh. The last time I posted this skirt was…
What do I do to keep my casual Friday outfit from becoming too boring? Slip on an eye catching jacket. In this case, the Wilfred Pollard jacket by Aritzia.
Other than that, casual Friday is just that, casual. Graphic sweatshirt and a great pair of aviators complete the look.

“I need feminism because… My choice of attire is not invitation for you to stare.”
C'mon, really? Don’t act like you aren’t guilty of the very same thing.
When you see those dapper looking gentlemen sitting in backstreet cafés, with their cold pressed coffee in one hand while simultaneously writing poetry with the other. Everything about them is perfect. From their antique leather case to the tiny infinity tattoo on their finger. Don’t pretend like you don’t swoon as they periodically fix their Ray Ban glasses into place every time it slides to the tip of their nose, causing their tweed plaited bracelets to fall back down to their pale forearms. Don’t act like you aren’t currently imagining what it would be like to have this fine specimen of a man start a conversation with you, and all of a sudden that very same evening he is making slow, sweet love to you in his wood cabin on the edge of the woods. Before you know it, your lady parts are getting a little wet before your coffee even arrives. You can’t help your bodies natural response to stimulants. But of course, you couldn’t stop staring because this guy was clearly dressing to impress, right?
Again, don’t act like you don’t get turned on by men with hot bodies while they are simply trying to enjoy their day at the beach without being the target of your lustful stare. Their chiselled chests, all smooth and golden brown. Don’t pretend that you’ve never looked at a man like that and fantasised about him literally sweeping you off your feet with his strong muscular arms, and suddenly you are in a private, secluded beach where he is slowly kissing every inch of your body as you lie in the soft sand. Before you know it, your lady parts are getting a little wet and you aren’t even in the ocean yet. But of course, he should have worn a swim vest because his bare chest was basically an invitation to stare, right?
Tom Hiddleston, Benedict Cumberbatch, Misha Collins. Don’t act like you don’t google image these guys obsessively and memorise every single detail of their bodies. Don’t pretend like you haven’t used their public images to help yourself get off when you need a little private lady-time. But of course, they shouldn’t have been actors who are constantly in the spotlight if they didn’t want people to notice them and lust over them, right?
Unfortunately, everyone has the right to stare. At anything. You cannot police somebodies right to look at whatever is in their field of vision. Especially when you abuse this very same right, for the exact same reasons. Don’t be a hypocrite.
Date night with the boyfriend. Went and saw Django Unchained. Didn’t live up to the hype, feel free to attack me and my opinion because I dislike Tarantino.
