WEAR TO THE OFFICE

Corporate ≠ boring outfit! Within the semi-conservative to conservative realm, you can always add some personality to your look! Instead of a shapeless black pant, opt for wide leg culottes! They are still length appropriate and you can easily tuck in a blouse, like the lace one I did in this look. The shape of the pant & the lace detail add femininity & personality. Now, I would wear a black or beige pump for the office but then switch it to these red lace-up sandals for a 5@7 – instant outfit! Cheers! Photo credit: Diana Budacki Outfit details: Top:…

CASUAL CHIC-NESS

Closet must: comfy heels. I don’t know about you, but I hate heels. Ok that’s not fair, I do love how they look, I just hate how they feel – after a few minutes, my feet are literally in distress. They hurt me so much that I can’t have fun anymore and all I can think about is sitting down. So, I wear my heels only when I know I will be sitting for most of the evening, otherwise I go for flats. It’s quite hard to find a pair of heels that are comfy, but when you do, hold…

POST WORKOUT

Comfort is everything, especially post workout! After spending an hour lifting weights & speed walking on the treadmill, there is nothing better than slipping into clothes & shoes that breathe and keep you warm! This Point Zero jacket has a fun sporty look that’s trendy, ultra light & warm; simply perfect for Spring weather when you get out of the gym after a sweat and it’s still cold outside (which, lets face it perfectly describes Montreal’s Spring, doesn’t it?) I paired it with this Point Zero dry edition tank top thats sleek & soft and keeps you dry, even after a workout.…

MLLE FRIVOLE

Giving clothes a second life never looked so good! I honestly never checked out a thrift store before, but I saw people find amazing vintage pieces and I’ve been meaning to check it out myself but never seemed to have the time to look one up! Then by chance I met Gabrielle, one of the owners of Mlle Frivole, a thrift shop that offers vintage & modern clothes that fit any style! And so, together with Laurence, these two sweet girls introduced me to the world of thrift stores and I gotta say, you can find amazing pieces for a fraction of the…

SANUK

Working gents get lazy sometimes. Lol, well they work all throughout the week so they need a little break! If you wear suits all week, you surely crave casual Fridays and there is nothing more casual as a pair of jeans, a knit & of course Sanuk sneakers! They’re super sytlish yet very breathable & utlra comfortable! Since the snow is finally gone, these babies can finally be taken out for a spin during the weekends! Grabbing food, running errands (that your girl sent you on…lol), or just chilling with the boys, this is the perfect go to outfit! Outfit…

GEOX – NEBULA COLLECTION

Walking on clouds; this is how I feel in these Geox Nebula sneakers! Hands down the comfiest shoes I have ever put on my feet aside from slippers. I know, I didn’t believe it either, everyone claims to have made the comfiest shoe, but trying them on just for a second convinced me. Made from a piece of heaven… just kidding, but serious they could be! The breathable technology, flexibility, cushioning, stability, grip & light weight make these shoes quite unique! I picked the grey & pink color for Summer with the thought in mind that I will be travelling to Europe…

WOMEN POWER

All success begins with confidence. When you posses confidence, you can achieve pretty much anything! Trust me, I know. Throughout my life, I had to face many obstacles. I was not born with a silver spoon in my mouth and I had to work very hard to get to where I am today. I attribute it to my upbringing of course, my mom was a great role model, but mostly to the empowerment that confidence gave me. It has propelled me forward to obtain my CPA, CA degree (that I am proud to carry), to pursue a career in fashion like…
