Proutfit: Black, White and Grey

Mode Xlusive

Not much going on today with my proutfit. A little black, white and grey action. Maybe it’s a symbol of my blah mood.

This is the white skirt I had taken in. I love the embossed floral details of the fabric. It’s not stretchy, so going up stairs and getting into my car is a bit of a “thing”.

My black and white top is from H&M ($14.95). It’s a bit sheer, but does the trick for the price point. I also grabbed a green version of the same top, which I love!

My new go-to cardy is from J-Crew Outlet at Tanger. I love that it is short and hits me at my waistline. Very important to flatter the section that goes in.

I’ve had my black peep-toe patten leather Franco Sarto pumps for almost 5 years now. I had the heel changed twice and the sole reinforced. I love them. Very comfortable heel and great for conferences when you are on your feet all day long.

Proutfit: This jumpsuit though

Mode Xlusive

Well kids, I did it! I bought me a gorgeous “free people” jumpsuit at my favourite boutique in Toronto… Cloakroom, on Yonge street south of St-Clair.

I love how the deep V compliments my  neckline. The shoulders are flattering and the waistline hits me perfectly! I love the pockets and the purple details are great for my skin tone.

I did get warm in it, though. We walked for 3 hours and it’s almost 28 degrees Celsius in Toronto after all! Still the cotton is light and breezy!

 Have a great weekend!

Proutfit: Wedding Attire

Events

I’m in Toronto for my friend’s wedding and this week’s challenge was to find an outfit!

Because the weather is so nice, I opted out of wearing my little black dress that I can now squeeze into. The material is heavy and more appropriate for cooler climates.

I pulled out the H&M dress that I received from the #hmconsciouscloset event. I really like it, but wasn’t in the mood for a bohemian look. I paired it with a thick black and leather belt (purchased in Paris) and strappy leather sandals (Hilary Radley- vintage).

 

I then tried a green H&M dress from last summer’s collection. I love this thing! It’s feminine and forgiving 🙂 Although it doesn’t accentuate my new curves, I’m feeling confident in the dress regardless. I paired it with my favourite blue Nine West Pumps and silver Ela clutch I bought in Vancouver.

   

I have the share a blooper… This just shows you what a blogger’s life really looks like behind the lense!
