Me on my first longboard ride beyond the driveway. Me on my first longboard ride beyond the driveway. I get why people like it, it's really fun! I made huge progress with control and steering with just 30 minutes of practice. Next time I'm going to work on lowering my centre of gravity and going faster. Also, this Girlfriend Collective @girlfriend ensemble (#gifted) was so fun to wear on this surprisingly warm fall evening. This is the Pocket Bike Short and Simone bra in Midnight and the whole set is made from recycled plastic bottles with ethical and sustainable manufacturing practices I can get behind.

I have mixed feelings...How are you feeling about what feels like a repeat of the spring?

With my (imperfect) commitment to not shopping fas With my (imperfect) commitment to not shopping fast fashion, only getting investment pieces, and shopping vintage and second-hand, I've discovered something I used to enjoy: the anticipation of waiting for a new piece. Hear me out: as an adult with a decent salary, no kids, and no student debt, it's so easy to talk myself into buying something I want. But it wasn't that long ago, I had no money and I would buy a $2 nail-polish to scratch the itch of getting a new piece of clothing. Here are some ways I've rediscovered the joy of waiting: ✒︎ I want an investment piece, but can't justify the cost? Now I have to wait for a sale, scoure pre-loved websites like The Real Real, or wait for it to be resold on sites like Poshmark. ✒︎ I'm looking for something specific like a camel trench coat or a leather midi skirt? I could easily find one that is trendy and affordable, but it wouldn't have the quality or ethical practices I'm committed to. Now, I wait and look until I find the perfect one, instead of just pulling the trigger on one that is so-so. ✒︎ Small-batch pre-orders: Something else that has really flexed my patience is ordering from small-batch makers who make-to-order and need pre-orders for their model to be successful and not wasteful. Twice now, I've placed pre-orders for items that will only ship in 4-6 weeks. I missed that anticipation. Now, instead of the instant gratification, I have to wait and look forward to that item arriving. And in the meantime, I have less of a desire to shop. ✒︎ Lastly, maybe I do just need a basic item that I could get at Zara or H&M... But I'm trying really hard to find thrift store alternatives so I don't buy yet another item brand-new. The result has been that "Christmas morning" or "Birthday present" anticipation of being able to add a piece I love, carefully chose, and waited for to the fold. Have you ever saved up for something really special? Did you enjoy the wait? . . . . . #styleoftheday #fashionbloggers #fashionblog #beautybloggers #fbloggers #fromwhereistand #outfitoftheday #styleblogger #fashionblogger #whatiwore #fashiondiaries #outfitideas #stylegram #styleblog #stylediaries #whatiworetoday #aboutalook
There are some new faces around here, so I wanted There are some new faces around here, so I wanted to reintroduce myself so you know more about who is behind this account! 10 FACTS ABOUT ME: 1 - I was born just outside of Québec City, but shortly after, moved to Montreal and have lived there ever since. My parents are from BC but I did most of my schooling in French. This confuses the heck out of people, since I don't have an accent in French nor in English, so they have a hard time figuring me out. 2 - I studied Journalism in school but quickly moved to working in tech a few years after graduation. I've been in that industry ever since and am now Head of Growth at Kinsta 3 - I started the travel blog The Capsule Suitcase 4 years ago after I began travelling a lot for work. In the past few years, I've spent months and months abroad, with trips ranging from 2 nights to 3 months. All this experience really refined my packing skills and became something I enjoyed blogging about. 4 - I really love fashion and have since I can remember. I used to design clothing for my dolls out of fabric scraps and dryer sheets and as a child, wanted to design costumes for the Cirque du Soleil. 5 - I spend a considerable amount of time in the US but I don't have any other citizenship other than Canadian. I have several loved ones in the Midwest, so I go as often as I can. 6 - I am the youngest of SIX kids. I'm 29 now, and the oldest is 45. 7 - I read the news a lot. I try not to get too sucked into my phone every day, but one thing I never miss is catching up on the news cycle a few times a day. If I had cable, I would probably have 24h news channels on all the time. 8 - I bought my first home shortly after turning 26 and I love talking finance, even if I'm only half knowledgeable. 9 - I believe in God and unlike the U.S., was usually the only one in my class who did growing up. 10 - Some of my life goals include starting a business, writing a book, and getting my driver's license (don't laugh, I've always lived a short walk from a metro station!) . . . #whatiworetoday #aboutalook #chictopia #flashesofdelight #stylecollective #ootdmagazine #theeverydayproject #streetstyle #justgoshoot #inbloom #myootd #ootdinspo

Fear is at the root of so many of our decisions, i Fear is at the root of so many of our decisions, isn't it: fear of failure, of looking stupid, of rejection, of making a mistake we can't take back. Every once in a while, I take a look back at some pretty scary things I've done which now seem so easy. Wild how that works, right? At one time, going to a new school was terrifying. Quitting a stable job to try something new and way more precarious was a huge risk, solo travel, or even setting boundaries and disappointing the people I love took everything in me. Whenever I feel fear creeping up and preventing me from moving forward I just remember all the times I've overcome fear to do something new...and how much easier it was after! How much more I was able to take on because I'd taken the first step. Growth is perceptible if you look closely. What's one scary thing that you've overcome recently?⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ #canadiancreatives #liveunscripted #flowering #inbloom #summerootd #springootd #summerstyle #springstyle #inspojunkie #stylefriques #fashiongals #fashiongoalsz #cybercorner #prettylittleiiinspo #styledomino #fashionactive #cyberfashioninspiration #hairandstyles #inspodreamers #blogging4style #whowhatwear #bloglovinfashion #rewardstylebloggers
What's your approach to the seasonal clothing swit What's your approach to the seasonal clothing switch over? I was scrolling IG and saw a couple of friends knee-deep in sweaters, coats, and their summer staples, trying to sort out what summer items to put away for the winter, what still fits from last year, and what needed a good pass of the sweater de-fuzzer. My winter stuff is all up in Canada, which is fine since that's where I need it, but I'm not-so-secretly looking forward to doing my own Fall closet turnover. ⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ #streetstyleluxe #kissinfashion #discoverunder5k #discoverunder10k #girlsthatwander #fashionfury #realoutfitgram #whatamiwearing #ootddetails #shopmystyle #stylegram #fbloggerstyle #fashifeen #ootdinspo #fashiongoals #fallfashion #ihavethingswithcolor #whatimwearing #lovethislook #theeverygirl #styleguide #luxuryfashion #fashiondiary #fashionblogging #acolorstory #socialblogger #darlingdaily #liveauthentic #lovethelittlethings #styleinspiration
I'm very picky about my makeup. This is probably b I'm very picky about my makeup. This is probably because I don't wear very much of it, so each item has to be high-quality, non-toxic, and be in tune with my lifestyle. That also means things that are easy to pack, good for me and the environment, and blend in with my colour preferences. I've been shopping with @alimapure for a few years now, first with their foundation powder and eyeliners, and more recently with their eyeshadows. I love the matte brown powdery eyeshadow for when I want to do a smokey eye and their cream highlighter is the perfect amount of shine for me without looking like a character from Twilight. What I also love is their packaging! You can order replacement pans to fit in each compact so you're not buying more and more plastic compacts every time.
