It's officially summer and what better way to start the season than partnering up with one of my favourite brands! The very nice people over at Ricki's recently sent me this flirty flutter sleeve top which I'm sure will quickly become a wardrobe favourite. Tees are an essential part of my wardrobe all year round. I love how versatile they are. As part of their Tops Under $30 campaign, I was given the opportunity to style this flutter sleeve top two ways; dressed up and dressed down.

Every woman should own a few basic tees in neutrals like white, black, and grey. As I've mentioned in previous posts, worn casual with denim and sneakers or dressed up with a blazer and statement necklace, there is nothing more versatile than a plain white tee. But, every once in a while, especially in the summer, a girl needs some colour in her life!

Peach is definitely one of my favourite summer colours. Looks great paired with neutrals like black, white, brown and looks even better with a tan! Obviously I need to work on that part. . .

This peach top goes beyond basic with it's flirty and feminine flutter sleeves. I love little details like that! I usually pair peach with gold or rose gold jewelry but it looks good with silver as well.

Ricki's has a great selection of essential tops under $30 which can easily be dressed up or down.

Hello dear readers! Happy Friday! Last weekend, Brandon and I went to Niagara Falls for a mini getaway and had such a wonderful time. So much beauty, especially at this time of year. The sun was shining, the flowers were blooming, and there was a warm gentle breeze. Perfect day for sightseeing. This is the outfit I wore to stroll the streets of Niagara and admire the beauty of the Horseshoe Falls.

This dress is a recent purchase from H&M and it is THE MOST flattering dress! It's very feminine, flowy and flirty. I try to stay away from printed dresses because trends come and go but you can never go wrong with a black and white print.

These shoes are a recent addition to my shoe collection and it was love at first sight. Ghillies are a big trend for this year's spring and summer seasons and I couldn't be any more thrilled. Loving the blocked heel which makes walking in heels much more comfortable.

What I'm wearing::

Printed Dress ~ H&M

Bag ~ H&M (currently on sale}

Ghillies ~ Call It Spring

I hope everyone has a great weekend!

Hello dear readers. I'm starting off the month of June with a bright pop of colour! The "red + white + black" combination is always a classic look and definitely a favourite of mine. At times, bright colours can be a bit of a challenge but pairing them with black and white keeps things simple and classic. You can never go wrong with this mix.

A bold red mani is always a great choice for any season but sometimes all you need is a little bit of colour on the tips. This red blazer already makes a bold statement so I kept my mani simple with just a touch of red.
