sunlight in her hair


Wow, have I ever had a whirlwind of a couple weeks! I spent four crazy nights in Viva Las Vegas with five of my best friends and had the most incredible time. The shopping, the pool parties, the nightlife  it was all glitz and glamour, and we loved every minute of it. Returning home I was thrown back into reality: school, work, and catching up on some much needed sleep. 

I'm slowly getting back into blogging, and I was extremely thankful for a photo session with the lovely Kelly Swanson the other day — There is nothing like beautiful light on White Rock beach for an ideal background. Happy Monday everyone!

back to basics


GUESS WHAT? I'm back! I know that I mysteriously left the blogosphere without any explanation whatsoever, but I'm so happy to say that I'm back in action  I have found my inspiration (and motivation) to blog once again. To make a long story short, the pressure from school and other life decisions made me take a step back and re-evaluate what is really important. For the past two months, that's been focusing on finishing my degree, spending time with loved ones, and figuring out what really makes me happy. Now, it's back to blogging!

And it's also back to basics with this outfit  Flowy tops, jeans, and sunglasses have literally been my go-to almost every day of the week. It's a must when I'm running errands, visiting friends, and studying for exams all in one day. Now that schools over though... It's time to experiment with patterns and colour in my wardrobe! Happy Monday  It sure feels good to be back.

matchy matchy


SINCE I FEATURED these Madewell trousers here as a springtime outfit, it got me thinking How can I style them for winter? So I threw on a cozy sweater (I love this one from Zara in winter white), plus a wool coat and a matching purse, and I was set. I love bringing in a splash of colour to a dreary winter day, and what better colour than pink to compliment Valentine's Day! How was your day of love everyone? I was surprised with flowers, chocolate and dinner from this guy who visited for a week. Which also meant a lot of indulging on good food, candy hearts and Ferrero Rocher's. I think it's time for another Wild Rose Detox. Sigh. Happy Monday!
