Now that it’s officially Spring, it’s time to ditch the heavy boots and coats at last. I’m personally excited to simply wear my nice shoes without fear of salt stains and being able to venture outside not dressed in a getup reminiscent of a giant marshmallow. With this very welcome change in weather also comes a very welcome change in wardrobe. One of my first stops each season when updating my wardrobe is Joe Fresh thanks to their totally wallet friendly price point and always on point styling…
Active in BENCH
Fun fact: Darling Husband has recently compared me to Tony Soprano thanks to my occasional heavy breathing brought on by the fact that madam has squished all of my organs as to make herself a comfy home. As long as one of us is comfortable. Before getting pregnant, I was a pretty active person. Having spent a healthy chunk of my life in a ballet studio, I’ve always enjoyed being pretty fit. After hanging up my pointe shoes at the age of 18, I still take classes for fun even if it takes a little (who am I kidding, a lot) more effort to get my arabesque where it once was. Throw in some pilates, TRX, and an occasional run on the treadmill and you have my workout routine…
How to Authenticate a CHANEL Bag with LOVEthatBAG
For this month’s article in collaboration with LOVEthatBAG’s owner Alice and my resident bag guru, we’ll be focusing on her top tips for how to authenticate a CHANEL bag. These stunning bags top many a lust list and are truly a luxury item. They are also some of the priciest designer bags on the market with price increases occurring every few years. Since scooping up my first CHANEL bag a few years ago, a classic 2.55 flap bag, its retail price has naturally not stayed the same. However, from beautiful materials to impeccable construction, a CHANEL bag is a worthy wardrobe investment piece. Since many of CHANEL’s bag styles sell out quite quickly and wait lists do not always guarantee you your dream bag, many people turn to re-sale sites to scoop up their dream bag. This can also be a wonderful way…
Joe Fresh Floral Dress
I couldn’t help but keep the perfect pairing of Joe Fresh and LOVEthatBAG going with this look. This gorgeous Coral CHANEL bag couldn’t match this floral dress from Joe Fresh any more beautifully. This match made in sartorial heaven resulted in an outfit that {almost} totally made me forget that there was still snow on the ground up until just a few days ago. This relaxed style of shirt dress has been a perfect maternity option that is both flattering and comfortable while…

With my May 18th due date getting closer and closer, I’ve gone into major nesting mode. I’ve been organizing and purging our entire home in a way that I never thought was possible. The first room that I tackled was our second bedroom, which up until recently was my closet and is now in the process of becoming a beautiful nursery. With this major change came the need for me to seriously clean out my wardrobe. And clean I did! The result was…
City Style with Joe Fresh and LOVEthatBAG
I’m a total city kid. Give me noise, hustle and bustle, and constant movement and I’m a happy girl. Take me out to the suburbs and I don’t know what to do with myself. That being said, my style has always been very inspired by the cities I’ve lived in. From Philadelphia to Washington D.C and now Montreal, I’ve called some beautiful places home. My move to Montreal in particular has impacted my style with its rich local fashion scene and touch of European charm. It’s also introduced me to some of my favorite Canadian brands and businesses…
