OOTD - Summer to Fall

Personally, I have a hard time giving up on Summer and since Edmonton skipped Fall and went straight to winter and than back to Fall -this out of order weather makes it hard to decide what to wear. I have been transiting some of my favourite summer pieces into the cold weather. This dress has been my favourite, so I was happy to be able to transition it to colder weather days 

dress: H&M

jacket: Levis

boots: Marshalls

purse: Marshalls

leggings: Simons

sunglasses: Chanel

OOTD - Going Wide

Originally, I was not a big fan of the wide leg pants – especially the cropped version. However, someone pointed out that I should style my cropped wide leg pants like I do midi skirts and since then I have been wearing them so often. Over the Spring and Summer, I paired these with a sandal but for Fall and Winter I have been wearing them with boots – they only work with a very high ankle boot or mid calf boot.    

pants: Reitmans

sweater: Reitmans

scarf: Zara

boots: Marshalls 

Last (like very last) Minute Halloween Costume Ideas

I love to plan, and be organized - doing anything last minute causes me stress and gives me anxiety. Halloween costumes always seem to do that... year in and year out I leave finding a costume to the last minute. In my defense though, I m not big on Halloween but here are some super easy, inexpensive, last minute costumes. All of these costumes are created with this most of us own already... because buying $$$ costumes is absurd- buy like 5 drinks and nachos instead ha!)

FBI Agent

You will need jeans, navy blue t-shirt or jacket, yellow tape, and a badge (optional $7.99 on amazon)

Bread Winner Costume

You will need  medals, T-shirt, jeans, two packages of bread.

50 Shades of Grey Costume

You will need grey dress or jeans and top. Lots of paint samples (thank you home depot!)

Mary Poppins Costume

You will need a black skirt, white dress shirt, hat, red bow tie (or scarf) and an umbrella.

Nerd Costume

You will need a dress shirt, suspenders, glasses, white tape and bow tie.

You will need a black dress, white dress shirt, black nylons (your hair in braids).

Where is Waldo.

You will need jeans, red stripped shirt, hat and glasses.

Pop Art Culture Costume

You will need make up (I owned most of this but a trip to local dollar store will do).

Rosie the Rivet Costume

You will need a denim shirt, jeans, brown belt, red and white scarf.

Few others: Cow Girl, Soccer/Baseball player, Referee, Angel/Devil, Cat, Ballerina, Bachelorette contestant, zombie.

If you are going to buy a costume, may I recommend  any super hero (Super Girl, Wonder Women, Cat Woman etc.), Fortnite Brite Bomber Costume, Handmaid's costume, or Power Rangers.

Are you dressing up this year?

OOTD - Monochromatic Gray

If you ask my sister she’d say I probably took this tot the next level… but sometimes there comes a trend that I fall head over heels with; the entire monochromatic look movement was that for me. I love that’s same tone looks are elegant and effortless. I love the idea of mixing and matching different tints of the same color to create an outfit that feels put together. (see this all pink look here) What do you guys think about same color looks?

denim: Mother

sweater: Aritzia

shoes: Steve Madden (flower attachment from Alterre NY, buy here)

purse: Chloe (borrowed)

Top 5 TV Shows on Netflix

I have some different picks than my usual shows, I went a little out of my comfort zone but I highly recommend these shows they are great. 

source

Maniac- This show is a mind bender and I loved it. If you like shows that are unexpected than this is the one for you. 

source

Big Mouth- This show is interesting it's about teenagers going through puberty and it is so relatable. The only part I didn't like is the singing i'm not a huge fan, but you can always fast forward through it like I did, or watch it your choice. 

source

Elite-  A bunch of rich kids in Spain who have to deal with new kids on scholarship coming to their school. It's like the Spanish gossip girl but better.

source

Three Wives One Husband- This show is about polygamy, Fundamentalist Morons who believe having more than one wive and multiple children brings them closer to God. What fascinates me about this is the dynamic between the husband and the wives and the wives with each other. I can honestly say I cannot share my husband but its interesting to watch women try.

source

Making a Murderer- Part 2 is out and I am so excited, I got lost in part 1 and I can't wait to get lost in part 2. If you have been living under a rock and don't know about this show then I will tell you it's about a man who was wrongly accused of a murder and set free by the state. He won a lawsuit against them for his incarceration and what happens he gets thrown back in jail on a second murder charge that he claims he is innocent of. The evidence to show his innocence is compelling. 

What are you watching on Netflix? What should I binge on next?
