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,

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,

Festival Fashion is in the air, and no matter what kind of music your into, there is a festival just for you! Whether your going to Coachella, Bonnaroo, Warped Tour, Tomorrow World, or Veld, you gotta look the part! Lucky for us Nasty Gal has got us Covered.

Nasty Gal has come out with a new Festival Collection, which is absolute perfection! Everything from pastel high wasted shorts, printed crop tops, kimonos, fringe everything, and some serious Lana Del Rey worthy Flower crowns. Nasty Gal really outdid themselves, forget just festivals this can basically be my whole summer wardrobe!

I feel as though summer festivals have made such an impact on just overall summer fashion. We all know fashion has so many stages, 80's chic, grunge, New York prep; and festival wear is just among the next big fad for the summer! In almost all the stores at the moment you see festival inspired gear!

What do you actually classify as festival fashion? Just looking over all the trends for this summer I like to think of it as boho chic, with hippy inspirations, and edgy elements! Bright colours are a must, light flowy materials(you know to make standing outside in the scorching heat surrounded by all those sweaty people a little more bearable?), Patterns and prints, by themselves or even mixing them with each other.. I know weird right? But it works. And most importantly accessories are the frosting on the cake.. it just isn't right without some.

Some popular ones on Nasty Gal are the rounded sunglasses that have a thick pattern around them! Fringe purses and backpacks, I'm in love with the watermelon clutch, oh my goodness too cute! Hippy headbands and flower crowns of course, and feathered earrings! I feel like with festival fashion you deff got to go hard or go home when it comes to the trimmings.

Hey and depending on what festival you're going to, you could be coming in contact with some body paint which is always fun and games until you get it all over your $150 white dress, so I urge you to be just a little careful, unless people are throwing around dry paint, which then you are screwed my friend, so just do a little research before you pick out your outfit!

Overall I'm in love with this collection from Nasty Gal, go to their website to check out their stunning look book and to shop your little hearts out. I definitely want to try and hit up a couple this summer, just gotta plan what ones! But I can for sure tell you that my outfits will not disappoint! Will you be going to any festivals this summer? Or just jumping on the festival fashion bandwagon?

Why hello dolls! Happy Monday! It's been a pretty busy week this past week with St. Patricks Day festivities, internship interviews,  studying, hanging out with some friends and going to a concert. Just wanted to show you some of my fun outfits from this past week! I left out the boring interview ones because I mean, who wants to see another blazer? 

Ok I don't know about you all but I love St. Patricks Day, less for the green beer but more for the dressing up, it's the only day of the year that I'm allowed to wear green. I've worn green practically all my life for my high school uniform, and a work uniform I had for three years and oh man it was just god awful, expecially with my red hair I looked like walking Christmas. Well after I burned those uniforms (yes I really did) I refused to ever wear green again, I know I'm dramatic. So on this lovely holiday I choose to embrace it for this day and this day only. This year I rocked a plain green tank, tucked into my brandy melville velvet shorts and some nylons, with some sparkly green glasses on my head. I thought that my whole class was going to dress up, but turns out no one else got the memo besides me so I stood out like a sore thumb all day at school, hey that's not always a bad thing! But later on when we went to a couple bars I fit in just fine! 

The for just hanging out on Friday night I was so sick of dressing so professional all week, I just wanted to be comfy and cool! So I rocked my fav pair of high waisted blue jeans, don't ask me where I got them because I can't even tell you, (lol what a helpful blog I run over here), just a plain black tank and my favourite leather jacket that I've had for about four years, it's all ripped and worn out but I love it, the stories that jacket could tell.... Then I just rocked a snap back, and some colourful jewelry, nails, and lip! 

Saturday night I went The Neighbourhood concert. If you know about them you know that they are all about black and white everything from there clothes, to hair, to music videos, tv performances, and interviews are alway in black and white, and if you know their song Sweater Weather (who doesn't?) "cues song" 'those little high wasted shorts!" You'll understand my outfit. I wore my black and white stripped high wasted shorts from brandy melville, a lace crop top from garage, my leather jacket again, and my chanel beanie. As much as I loved my outfit standing outside in line for 2 hours was not so cute, thanks goodness I decided last minute to wear my parka. The show was auh-mazing, Jesse Rutherfords voice in person is ridiculously sexy. If you haven't heard them, go check them out now! Please...and thank you.

And that's about it friends, I've been such into snapbacks lately, they make me want summer like ASAP! So I've been rocking those lately, straight hair, dewy foundation and always a bold lip! Hope you all had a lovely Monday and I'll catch up with you guys soon! 

Till next time, 

I'm Tashionably Yours XO
