  • Transition weather is confusing but also fun and it's a great time to play around with one of my favourite layering tricks: a dress over jeans. As a preteen, I used to do this to be different and rebellious, but now it's way more mainstream and just a fun way to make combine your old favourites in new ways. The fun part about this look is that depending on the weather you have while you travel, you could wear the jeans and dress alone or the dress with the leather jacket. Feel a bit chilly? Wear all three. ⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #justgoshoot #springootd #springstyle #mtl_explorers #mtl #greatermontreal #downtownmontreal #montreal #flowering #inbloom #icapture_mtl #myootd #weekendvibes #weekendtime #montrealstreetstyle #streetstylefashion #streetstyleluxe #montrealblogger #theprettycities #seeksimplicity #discoverunder10k #discoverunder20k #fashionfury #realoutfitgram #whatamiwearing #ootddetails #shopmystyle #stylegram #fbloggerstyle #fashifeen
  • You know I love a good Canadian Tuxedo and this one has a bit of Japanese-inspired flair. I recently converted a skirt that felt too short into a jacket and I can't stop wearing it. I paired it with a denim culotte of a similar hue to make a matchy-matchy set. Sets are fun for capsules because they can be the foundational outfit, then be split into different looks to add more options. ⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #ootdinspo #fashiongoals #kissinfashion #fallfashion #ihavethingswithcolor #whatimwearing #lovethislook #theeverygirl #styleblogger #styleblog #styleguide #ootdmagazine #luxuryfashion #fashiondiary #fashionblogging #girltalk #acolorstory #socialblogger #petitefashion #darlingdaily #streetstyleluxe #luxurystyle #liveauthentic #lovethelittlethings #styleinspiration #bossgirlbloggers #montrealblogger #canadiancreatives #girlsthatwander #liveunscripted
  • I was about to write some caption about using self-tanner on my legs but honestly, I don't want to engage in more body talk than I need to. I could talk about how I embrace my paleness, etc... but again who cares!? Being body-positive doesn't make me kinder, smarter, a better steward of our planet, or a more skilled traveller. The true goal is being body-neutral (a term I learned from @beyondbeautifulbook). Knowing and practicing that the way I feel about myself has nothing to do with my appearance. Feeling happy and confident isn't a product of thinking I'm beautiful or challenging beauty standards online. It's knowing I'm more than this outer shell. I still love clothes and makeup, because they're fun! But my worth doesn't rest on it, ya know? Instagram, please keep me accountable to speak more with #bodyneutrality⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #wearthisnext #fashioncanadians #ootdsubmit #ilovestreetstyle #aboutalook #fashioninspo #outfitdaily #styleblog #lookoftheday #blogsociety #fashiondiaries #fashionblogger #fblogger #outfitblogger #outfitinspiration #nomadlife #digitalnomadgirls #capsulewardrobe #minimalistpacking #womenwhotravel #lookbookmontreal #fashionistalook #mtlfashionbloggers #darlingdaily #canadianblogger #realstagram #travelfashion #travelfashiongirl #fashionandtravel
  • I love flowy black pants as travel trousers for a couple of reasons. 1) They look pretty cool and chic, no matter how you style them. Because they're a bit more fashion-forward than skinny pants, you'll always have that edge. 2) In the right fabric, they are fairly wrinkle-resistant and even if they lose their shape, the black makes it less obvious. 3) They let my limbs and stomach breathe. Sometimes with tight pants, I want to cross my legs or sit with my hips open and find I'm so stuck and my circulation is cut off behind my knees. 4) They hide the fact that I'm wearing knee-high compression socks 😁. ⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #wearthisnext #fashioncanadians #ootdsubmit #ilovestreetstyle #aboutalook #fashioninspo #outfitdaily #styleblog #lookoftheday #blogsociety #fashiondiaries #fashionblogger #fblogger #outfitblogger #outfitinspiration #nomadlife #digitalnomadgirls #capsulewardrobe #minimalistpacking #womenwhotravel #lookbookmontreal #fashionistalook #mtlfashionbloggers #darlingdaily #canadianblogger #realstagram #travelfashion #travelfashiongirl #fashionandtravel #styleoftheday
  • I love having plants and I recently gave their soil a little refresher so they stay healthy and happy. Still working out house sitters for when I'm away this summer because I would be crushed if I came home to dead plants. ⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #mybeigelife #littlestoriesofmylife #habitandhome #darlingmovement #momentsofmine #littlestoriesofmylife #thatauthenticfeeling #liveauthentic #livewell #visualsoflife #thehappynow #simplelife #simplicityeverywhere #createtoinspire #createbeauty #minimaldecor #bohodecor #rusticdecor #pursueprettythings #toeachtheirpath #mtlmoments #montreal_gallery #minimalism_world #mindfulliving #lovewhatyoudo #aspiretoinspire #boholifestyle #gatherandcurate #designinspiration #apartmenttherapy⠀
  • As I prepare for a pretty busy summer of non-stop travel and events, I'm trying to set myself up for success by adopting some healthy habits I can maintain wherever I go. These include getting enough exercise (the hardest one!), sticking to my vegan diet, and getting enough sleep. Maintaining a healthy diet in Montreal is super easy but when I travel, I often make way more concessions than I should, because I'm too afraid to speak up and be considered difficult or picky. For exercise, it's so easy to make excuses but with all the videos available online, you barely need any space or equipment to get moving. Sticking to regular healthy habits is the trick to avoiding travel burnout, so I'm being more intentional this year. Any tips on sticking to these travel resolutions?⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #ootdinspo #fashiongoals #kissinfashion #fallfashion #ihavethingswithcolor #whatimwearing #lovethislook #theeverygirl #styleblogger #styleblog #styleguide #ootdmagazine #luxuryfashion #fashiondiary #fashionblogging #girltalk #acolorstory #socialblogger #petitefashion #darlingdaily #streetstyleluxe #luxurystyle #liveauthentic #lovethelittlethings #styleinspiration #bossgirlbloggers #montrealblogger #canadiancreatives #girlsthatwander #liveunscripted
  • Happy Mother's Day! Today on the blog, I share travel lessons I learned from years of travelling with my mom, both as a child and more recently as an adult. Some of my favourite tips? Be curious, don't be afraid, and always pack snacks. Hope you can learn a little something from her too and that you're spoiling the mother figures in your life today. . . . #prettylittleinspo #postitfortheaesthetic #detailsoftheday #simplepleasures #alittlebeautyeveryday #slowlived #seekthesimplicity #theartofslowliving #persuepretty #visualcrush #alliseeispretty #mybeigelife #aquietstyle #cornersofmyworld #thatsdarling #thedarlingmovement #petitejoys #simplemoments #momentsofmine #feelfreefeed #pursuewhatislovely #designisinthedetails #societygal #darlingdaily #nordichomes #thatauthenticfeeling #toeachtheirpath #thehappynow #simplicityeverywhere #naturallight
  • It's the weekend, hope you're all having a restful Saturday. I wanted to share another photo of this outfit to draw attention to the black midi skirt. I love this skirt because not only is it so easy to keep wrinkle-free, goes with everything, and is easy to dress up or down, but you can wear it a few different ways. There is a slit with a side ruffle that you can wear in the front, on the side, or in the back, depending on the kind of look you're trying to create. I could wear it three days in a row and still make it feel new. A+ for versatility.
