POP OF YELLOW

Yesterday was the 1st official day of Spring, but I think someone forgot to notify mother nature! I don’t know about you ladies, but the summer needs to be extra hot & sunny to make up for this. It’s been a cold & snowy winter & I am ready for it to be over ( I think I speak for all Montrealers when I say this). I wore this yellow blazer regardless of the weather to brighten up this gloomy day. Although, knowing that it’s Friday helps as well :) Happy Friday!!!

WHITE BLAZER

I found this perfect white blazer that’s both classy and very comfortable. I could not wait to wear it, so I decided that it will be my outfit today at work. Obviously I will be wearing boots outside, but will switch to these ankle strap sandals in the office. I love this look, do you girls like it too? Blazer – Dynamite Jeans – Zara Top –…
