Pop the champagne because I am officially done school! Undergrad in Fashion Management done and after the longest year of my life, post grad in International Fashion Development and Management is finite! And I cannot be more thrilled about it and to finally start my career in the fashion industry. It really was a long year and especially since in the summer I moved further up north away from the city I had to get up at 4:30 to make those godawful 8am classes (who invented those in the first place?) Well how did I survive you ask? Well friend let me tell you, never have I been so thankful for caffein and concealer. Turning off my alarm clock yesterday was seriously one of the greatest feelings in the world! I have a had a nice couple days off, got to spend time with some friends and family, and for the first time all year got to sit outside on my porch and read, and today reorganized my closet which was something I've wanted to do for months now! Does anyone else life just feels a lot more in order after they clean their closet? I also just recently came into a lot of colourful shoes... like 7, so I needed to make room for those bad boys.

Well even though classes are over, I'm not quit finished! Like I have mentioned before I need to get an internship in order to fully graduate. I have been on a couple of interviews but I can honestly say that I am being a little picky. I've done internships before and worked in the industry and I really just want something that is different then what I've done and one that I think I will really benefit from! So I have an interview tomorrow at an agency that represents some of the top fashion photographers in Toronto, meaning ill be helping out at some of the biggest shoots! I think this could be such an amazing opportunity, so fingers crossed and wish me luck! This is similar to what I will be wearing tomorrow, sticking to black, as per usual but adding pops of blue through my shoes, scarf and nails! I'll let you know how it goes!

Till next time,

So when this whole plaid skirt trend came out recently, let me tell you .. I was not having it at all. I actually thought it was the most stupidest thing since elastic waist pants (I used to call them mom pants). I think the reason I hated plaid skirts so much was because I went to a Catholic High School where it was required to wear a uniform, which consisted of a plaid kilt. Words cannot describe how much I hated this kilt, it was a mixture of forest green, navy and mustard yellow .. yeah I know right. So its safe to say that I was never willing to wear plaid bottoms in my life ever again. Which is why when I started seeing these everywhere it was like a nightmare I could not wake up from. Yet somehow, like my hatred for elastic waist pants, I was somehow magically cured. It was when I was at the Brandy Melville Warehouse Sale where I came across these two gems, this red skirt here and a white and black one. I honestly have no idea what came over me, I picked them both up and was like "Oh hey, these are cute I want to try these on." So I tried them on and I loved them, and they were also only $5 each, and that is how it happened.

Since the weather over here is finally warming up (7 months later), I decided to wear one to school! I felt like rocking the red one, I paired it with a black cop top also from Brandy, and a black sweater from Forever 21. To finish off the look, and to make it extra High-School-ish, I threw my hair up in a high pony and I wore a thick red headband (which gave me a huge headache all day, but hey fashion know's not of comfort right?) I paired it with a bunch of gold and black jewellery and that's that! It was definitely a fun change, a total blast from the past and something that I am not used to at all, but hey this year its all about taking some fashion risks! Hope you all had a fab weekend!

Till Next Time,

Why hello there! I have been a little absent this past week, as things have just been crazy with school and work! It is so hard to believe that I only have less then two weeks of school left, which you think I would be more excited about but that just means I need to start a big girl job which is all so scary and exciting at the same. I have still yet to find an internship for the summer, I think I have an interview this week though for a styling position with a magazine which would be absolutely amazing if I got because that's something that I can just totally see myself doing! So fingers crossed!

Just wanted to do a quick post about this spring and summers trends with sunnies! I am absolutely in love with this trend of supper colourful, big, bright, and unique shaped styles. It is definitely a playoff of the 60's sunnies trends, I just love when style makes a comeback! I made a little compilation of my favourite styles, I love the ones that have the details attached to them, like the watermelon and the flower ones! The rounded ones with a thick colourful plastic around it I think are just so much fun and seriously such a perfect accessory. For a while I have only ever owned about 2-3 pairs of sunglasses at a time using them more as a necessity and less as an accessory but this spring I feel like you need a different pair of sunnies for every outfit! You can find these everywhere at the moment for every budget; forever 21 and H&M has some cute cheap ones, Nasty Gal and ASOS for those mid price points and those black floral ones are from Bloomingdales for almost $700! I just feel as though it is a perfect way to add a little bit more colour to your look, as we all know I am deff more of a neutral girl wearing mostly black all the time (hey I have been working on it OK?) And I love adding little bits of colour here and there, whether it's my necklaces or bracelets, my lips or nails that day, purses and clutches and now with some sunnies. And hey it's so much quicker to put on a pair then to do your eye make up! So if your running out the house to just run a couple errands or just going to the beach, skip on the eye shadow and liner and just throw on a pair of some supper chic and colourful sunnies.

Which one is your favourite?

Till next time,
