LoveShackFancy is coming to Target!!  I'm SO excited!  You can check out the collection here, but it officially drops June 6!  The price point is crazy good (compared to their regular price point) so it'll be hard to pick just one!  Unfortunately, the Target line appears to only be dresses, which is kind of a bummer because I love their skirts and blouses.  I was able to rent this beautiful LoveShackFancy Victorian inspired blouse from Nuuly.  I love the subtle ditsy floral print and, of course, the ruffles and balloon sleeves.  It's so light and airy and perfect for the heat we've been having.  I paired the blouse with white shorts and a pair of jute wedge sandals to keep everything light and summery!

Happy shopping/renting and good luck on June 6!

Happy December!  Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving!  We're Canadian so we don't really celebrate it, but I sure enjoyed the 5-day weekend with my kids!  We've been having the most beautiful weather (after a brief cold snap).  We did a lot of shopping and spent a lot of time outdoors.  Over the weekend I wore this plaid sweater by Jen's Pirate Booty.  I'm a big fan of Jen's Pirate Booty's gauzy summer pieces, but now I'm a big fan of their fall pieces.  It's very comfy and, as you know if you've been reading my blog, I'm a huge fan of the balloon sleeves.  Plus, it feels festive!  I paired this plaid sweater with my checkboard Vans sneakers for a matchy-matchy look.

I've also always been a fan of anything with a check pattern.  Below are a few pieces I'm coveting:

Lovers + Friends Aisling Pant
Lele Sadoughi x LoveShackFancy Knotted Headband
Splendid Eastwood Jacket
1. STATE Button Front Plaid Eyelash Cropped Cardigan
Free People Faded Dreams Cozy Trucker Jacket
525 American Houndstooth Pullover

These would make a great gift!

Plush Thermal PJ Set
Madewell Flannel Bedtime Pajama Set
Madewell Buffalo Check Cape Scarf 

Free People Valley Plaid Fringe Scarf

Happy shopping!

I never quite understood wearing a sweater with a skirt (or shorts) and sandals...until I moved to Myrtle Beach.  The weather has been gorgeous lately and we headed to the beach this past weekend.  Rather than jump into wearing an off-the-shoulder top, which I'm SO happy is still a trend, I'm easing my way into Spring and decided to start with a pair of tall gladiator sandals.  I paired them with my favourite One Teaspoon denim skirt and this For Love & Lemons sweater, which was perfect for when there was a breeze.  (Tip: if it's not quite sandal weather yet where you live, just add a pair of over-the-knee boots or booties!)
