Arm Candy

My boyfriend sometimes pokes fun at me when he sees me wearing an arm/wrist full of bracelets. He jokingly asks if i’ll be selling them on the streets and for how much?- har har G. I just remind him that he wouldn’t understand the love some of us women have for arm candy, making a statement and just wanting to dump our entire accessory bin onto one wrist and be on our way.

Luckily for us, the accessory world has been friendly and flexible in terms of rules. Everything goes. Danity can be mixed with statement pieces, gold and silver now apparently can live in harmony on one wrist, textures are mingling together and colours of all shades are co-exisiting. So it’s no wonder some of us look like we are about to tip over with the amount of bracelets we have on.

Below are some of my favourite arm candy combinations. Enjoy 🙂

Gold chain bracelet: Beadles Bracelets, Glass Bead bracelet: gift from Italy, Watch: Aldo
I love this combo because of the different textures and style of each piece, they compliment each other by not being “matchy matchy” but because all the golds are similiar undertones- they work well together.

Braided bracelets: from Brasil, Dainty half bracelet: Joe Fresh, Watch: Aldo
This combination is one of my favourites because of the colour combo and the variation of styles, execution of each piece and texture. Beautiful set for the spring/summer.

All bracelets: Beadles Bracelets, Watch: Aldo
One of my first arm candy combos that I started sporting on a regular basis. I love the punk and edgy feel that the colour and spikes give off.

Braided bracelets: from Brasil, Watch: Aldo
My favourite leather braided bracelets are these two from the beach , handmade in Brasil. I love black and gold together- one of my most adored colour combos ever! Regardless of the season.

Amore bracelet: BCBG, the bay, Rose Gold Chain: Beadles Bracelets
Perhaps it’s the Moschino belts that inspired this AMORE bracelet by BCBG, but regardless it’s everything. The leather strap is a beautiful pale pink with rose gold letters. I love mixing this with an edgy chain to balance the femininity from the strap.

I’ve always had a soft spot for  bohemian chic fashion and these colour combinations and pieces give off the exact boho vibe I am looking for.

And of course no post would be complete without my darkest, boldest and greatest cuffs ever. Again, no rules to why not pile them on?

So ladies and gents, how do you pair your arm candy? Are you a fan of statement pieces or do you enjoy more dainty items? Or a little bit of both?

H&M Mini Summer Haul

hm

Great day ladies and gents. I apologize in advance for my lengthy absence from the blog, as if birthday festivities and vacation preparation didn’t take most of my time up- I also ended up getting extremely ill last week (mild chest infection, which is always fun before going away). Thankfully, I am almost at 100% and I am able to finally get the mental and physical strength to put a post together.

Call me odd, but I almost feel guilty when I wear new clothes that I have purchased
for vacation before I actually get there. I feel as though I am per-maturely popping my
new outfit cherry which takes away from all the fun. I have purchased dozens upon dozens of new items for my vacation but most of them served purpose to be worn prior to me leaving. Simply because summer clothes was something my wardrobe was lacking tremendously.

I can’t wait to post some OOTD looks when I get back but for now I thought I would share a  mini haul from H&M. I later went back and purchased more items but unfortunately forgot to photograph them before I packed them so these items will have to do.

Enjoy ladies.

photo 2 photo 1This gorgeous Zebra print mid length dress is all that I ever longed for in a dress. At $14.95, you cannot go wrong. The material is light weight and the fit is extremely comfortable. The length is mid leg and the back is similar to a razor back.

photo 3 photo 5Crop tops are all the craze now but the key feature of course in my opinion is not only comfort but the cut and fit of a crop top. These divided crop tops are comfortable, have a great cut and come in a wide variety of colours. This top sits about 2-3 above my belly button and is only form fitting near the chest area- which is a plus for me. All are priced at $7.95

I mentioned these shorts in my Denim Shorts post from a couple of weeks back. I praised these shorts for their comfort, fit, style and wash. I went a size up in these shorts so they can fit more comfortably in the thigh and bum area. I purchased a gorgeous cream belt to tighten the waist area as they fit big there- eventually I will get them taken in.

Obsessed with these sweatshirt shorts would be an understatement. I purchased an original pair in dark grey which led me to go back for the faux denim and neon yellow pair. The shorts are designed with a drawstring waist, side pockets and sewn in turn ups at the hems. They are comfortable, sporty and you are able to wear them at hips or high waisted. A great purchase for the hot summer month at only $14.95.

These gorgeous floral print shorts are essential for the summer months and a must have for your wardrobe. The design, texture and colour of the shorts allow it to be transferable from day to night. Perfect for only $14.95.

The print was the overall feature that sold me on this $19.95 jumpsuit. It’s v-neck front detailing and cross over straps at the back is fun for summer and fits great overall.

Additional features include the adjustable shoulder straps and the elastic seam at the waist. They have various prints in this style.

So ladies and gents we will be back tomorrow with some more goodies before I go away. Thanks for stopping by 🙂

Denim Shorts

Denim shorts- in my opinion, are one of the hardest pieces of clothing to shop for.
Jeans in general are tough to buy, imagine them in the form of shorts? (YIKES!) Lucky for me (or maybe us all) designers have taken notice of the perhaps small decline of interest for the daisy duke denim shorts and figured out that there are more styles, options and cuts that us women would prefer.

This year I have been successful in finding denim shorts that are not only comfortable, fit well but suit my body shape. Comfort for me is one of – if not- the most important factor when it comes to clothing.

Today I share some great cuts, styles and a few pointers when choosing denim shorts.
Enjoy ladies.

The condition of erectile dysfunction enhances with the age, hence mostly suffered by generico viagra on line regencygrandenursing.com old age men. This has grown into increasing concern by in Athletic Physical Therapy is canada viagra prescription that the human body does not divide itself up into systems like we often see in medical anatomy books. Unavailability of blood does not get it ready for the regencygrandenursing.com viagra no prescription appropriate moment. Similarly, regencygrandenursing.com cialis tablets india old aged men can start to suffer from various forms of health disturbances. I find that denim shorts that fold at the thigh add an additional level of comfort. It also takes away from the illusion that the denim piece is (dare I say)- skin tight and unflattering. These Chic Nova shorts are the perfect length and have just the right size in fold. The target denim shorts which are available for both girls and ladies is a perfect length for those who want to bare legs but not bare it all. Minor detailing at the edge of the pocket gives it a feminine touch and the light wash is perfect for summer. And of course, my favourite- the topshop Moto bleach daisy hotpants made in the perfect bleach wash finish and frayed edge detailing.

Personally owning a few of these denim selections I have posted, my utmost favourite is hands down the $25 H&M “Short Denim Shorts”. There are too many components to list as to why I adore them but just to mention a few: the overall fit, waistline, frayed edges, wash, pocket and material. Okay- so I listed all of them. But they are seriously one of of the most comfortable pair of shorts I have owned to date. Chic Nova high waist and H&M’s distress denim shorts are also great picks for the summer months. Filled with personality, great washes and just the right amount of rips and tears.

And at last, our favourite find in the denim shorts department:OurFavouriteDenimShort

So ladies, what are your thoughts on denim shorts any favourites you’d like to share?

Beach Essentials

In spirit of the much anticipated “hottest weekend yet” for Toronto this coming Saturday / Sunday, I thought it was only appropriate to throw in the beach essentials post now. Although 90% of these are ‘no brainers’, I have made some recommendations, gave a little insight on why you need these items and what to consider. Enjoy the sunshine (hopefully, wherever you are)!

beach_essentials_oneHats: the larger the hat the better they say. A great way to protect your head from the  strong UV rays. Straw hats are light and comfortable for the warm weather.
Head piece: I always have a bandana or hair wrap during the hotter months. It’s another method to help protect your head from the sun, soak up sweat and keep cool.
Body wrap: Another great heat protector for when you are done basking in the sun. Plus you never know when that breeze will hit, nice way to keep warm if need be.
Cotton bag tote: easier to clean, stronger, more durable. Choose a tote with multiple departments to tuck things away.
Beach towel: I always bring two. One to lay on and a smaller one to rest on. Purchase a large thick towel, one that is at least a good 5-10 inches longer than your height. Thicker towels will soak up more water and can provide additional cushion.

beach_essentials_twoLip balm: Lips are at risk of sun damage too! Apply lip balm to provide moisture and SPF          protection.
Sun lotion/spray: Read the label and know your body. Choose a lotion that is right for your skin type. Also take into consideration temperature and the weather conditions of where you are.

I am sure that after reading this you will also find Kamagra Jelly, which many people prefer to have because some might like to apply the product rather than swallowing the pill as a whole. prescription free cialis viagra super Written estimatesIt is imperative that a patient realize what the chiropractic office’s costs are going to be. Insulated water bottles: We all know how much plastic water bottles LOVE the heat (not). Choose an insulated water bottle to help keep water cool.
Novel, magazine or puzzle: I have no issues falling asleep under the sun but it’s nice sometimes to attain some knowledge. Grab a book or challenge your brain with some puzzles!
Flip flops: You never know what’s in the sand plus protect your feet from heat!
Sunglasses: It’s not always about fashion or what’s the cheapest, the right pair of sunglasses will protect your eyes from harmful UV rays- do the research first.
Face clothes / thermal water spray: I still remember the day my cousin brought a thermal water spray to the beach and every hour she came by and sprayed us in the face hah. This is a great way to keep skin cool and moisturized. Face clothes do the same trick too. Also can help remove access oil, dirt and sweat.
Camera: Of course photos are a must! Bring a camera case or tuck your camera away in your beach tote to avoid sand or water damage.
Snacks: Because food is always an essential and I get extra hungry under the sun. Tuck them away in a insulted bag or choose snacks that won’t turn into a mess under the sun.

So ladies and gents, any additional beach essentials you find are important? Enjoy your weekend.

Pretty in Pink

As much as I rave and glamourize the beauty and significance of shades, it doesn’t mean my world is all black and white. I truly adore pink in all shades, it’s one of my favourite colours (surprised? I know). It could simply be due to the fact that pink suits my skin tone or for the mere reason that it’s an upbeat colour.

As we get older into our adult years however, us women (and maybe men too) start developing odd fears. One of them is how we can look too girly or reflect a lack of maturity due to what we wear or how we do our hair and makeup. Pink being one of the unfortunate victims.  Last time I checked, colours never had expiry dates on them ladies, wear away!

I put together some outfits which dominate in the wonderful hue of pink. I hope you enjoy :).

pinkoutfit-one If I had to choose (please don’t make me!) navy blue and bold pink would have to be one of my favourite colour combos. They not only compliment each other but they also work well in letting the other look bold and powerful. Tapered ankle trousers with a bold pink print and matching top really look solid when paired with nice white and gold accessories. Fierce and chic.

pink_outfit_2Skorts are all the rave now (I knew my childhood fav would make a comeback). This soft rose pink skort from topshop is stunning in terms of execution, texture and colour. Go daring with a cut out top and mix with a bright colourful statement necklace and neutral shoes.

Jumpsuits can be tricky to pull off but with this gorgeous magenta jumpsuit from boohoo, you’ll look effortlessly fabulous.. I paired it with soft pinks and nudes in order to keep the focus on the one piece. Add a kick (pun intended) of personality with open toe heels. Dressing it for the evening? Choose a bold statement necklace to complete the look.

So ladies, what are your feelings towards one of my favourite colours? Happy Thursday!
