Coat, vintage. Dress, Winners. Shoes, Zara. Bag, Marc Jacobs. Ring, Samantha Wills.

So we took these photos literally three days ago on Friday. And here we are Monday morning, everything is covered in snow! I’d glady teleport back to Friday, no only to do the whole weekend over again, but moreso to enjoy the double digit weather we had. Incredible how we can go from pre-summer temperature to snow in just 2 days. Welcome to the bipolar climate that we know as Toronto/GTA weather.

As much as I’m not looking forward to the winter weather, on the bright side of things this vintage tweed coat is pretty warm so it may help to make mild winter days less miserable with its bright colour and enveloping warmth. I should also point out that I am wearing two summer dresses here: a sheer lace dress worn over a simple white fitted summer dress. Could you tell?

Have any of you had your first snow fall yet? Are you looking forward to it, or looking for a place to hibernate like me?

Maxi dress, Forever 21. Jacket, Gentle Fawn. Flats, Zara. Umbrella c/o Brelli. Bag, Marc Jacobs. Ring, Samantha Wills.

From the other day when we were hanging downtown and I had the opportunity of giving my new Brelli umbrella a spin. The weather was pretty drab. As such I wore a comfy jersey maxi dress with a long chambray jacket with lace up flats. Effortless. In the end this worked out well as the on and off rain gave us an opportunity to photograph the umbrella, the outfit providing a pretty neutral background to the statement accessory. This baby is not only beautifully crafted but also provides 99% UV coverage, can withstand winds up to 40 mph and of course will give you shelter from the rain. It is also eco-friendly which just makes it more chic. Rainy days just became fun again.
