Bright Blazers

Wednesday, 22 February 2012

Hello beautiful readers!

I would just like to say, what is up with the weather in Canada?! I mean this is so ridiculous, first it was sunny and sweater worthy weather but now there's flurries and the snow's accumulating. Time to pull the Uggs out girl! I don't wear uggs on a daily basis only because its not always cold and it clashes with my outfits, but I'm wearing sweats at the moment so uggs can't make it look any more horrible. Anyways, enough rambling about the weather it's time for what this post is really about.

My friends and family know that I have a slight obsession with blazers, I even hang those bad boys on velvet hangers because I love them so much. I posted on Twitter yesterday that my goal was to add more color to my wardrobe. What better way to do that then with blazers!! Yes, I have probably taken my obsession a little too far as I do with all my obsessions, but I can't help it! Blazers go with almost EVERYTHING. They can give your look a sophisticated feel even just by putting a simple, structured one on.

I dedicate this post to bright blazers that I hope will join the others in my closet soon. I picked a variety from Forever 21, Zara and H&M. Here are a few of my favorites.

Zara Blazers
*The yellow and the pink are my favorite, but I went recently and I saw neither of them :(

H&M Blazers
*The pink one is my absolute FAVE! Hopefully, I'll drop by H&M soon and pick it up

XXI Blazers


The purple and the red are the same type of blazer just in the two different colors. I have the red blazer and it is my favorite blazer of all time. The fit is just perfect, so I decided I'll buy the purple version of it.  I did not see it at the store today, so this one is safe to buy online since I have the same one in red.

My favorites for this set of blazers are the purple and the orange blazers.

Ugh, I wish I could just have every type and color blazer there is out there! But sadly, I can't. 

Anyways hope you enjoyed! 

Much love,

Outfits of the Day!

Tuesday, 21 February 2012

Hello gorgeous blog readers!

Thought I'd make a quick little blog post before I head out tonight. Ever since getting my iPhone, it has been inseparable from me. And as a person who loves fashion, I love taking photos of outfits I put together on a daily basis. These are usually known as OOTDs or outfit of the day, I usually see videos of beauty and fashion gurus on YouTube doing their outfit of the day's but I don't really have time to film, edit and post a video on YouTube, even though I would love to. Since school is very time consuming, I just take quickie photos that showcase my outfit and post them on instagram, Twitter and Facebook. I would love to share my past and today's OOTDs with all of you lovely readers. Anyways, here they are! I hope you enjoy and if you want to know what I'm wearing in each photo just comment below and I'll add them under the photo.

Enjoy and much love, 
Melissa xo

A Spring Awakening

Monday, 20 February 2012

No, this post isn't about the play about finding your sexuality. Although, I would love the opportunity to be able to see it.

The point of this post is the fact that spring is coming! Yes, it's the second week of February and I'm already getting excited for spring. I know it's like two months away, but spring means it's closer to summer and it's at least somewhat decent weather in the spring months, so I actually get to wear what I want to wear without limitations. Anyways, spring/summer time means that I get to shop around for some new spring/summer shoes. And I absolutely ADORE shoes, at the moment my shoes have to be put on the floor since there's no room on my shoe racks :(

As I said, spring is coming so I'm looking online to see my options for some new shoes. I've been browsing through Aldo and Spring shoes and I have quite a few choices. But the hard part is, is whether or not to go for colour and be bold or stay safe with my neutrals. So here are my choices, they'll keep adding up so I'll keep updating this blog post until I do decide what pair I get and then I'll post my decision on a separate post.

Enjoy and much love,
Melissa

Well Hello New Collection!

I absolutely LOVE Essie's collections. Every Spring, Summer, Fall and Winter I end up buying at least two or three colours from the collections. I'd buy every colour, but then again who really changes their nail polish that often. Anyways, I just thought I'd make a post about their Spring 2012 collection because there are three colours that I am absolutely in love with! I'm not really the type of person to shy away from my favourite nail polish colours such as the pinks, nudes, blacks and whites. So the colours that I pick from nail polish collections are usually in my comfort zones.

I love all the colours in this collection and I would buy all of them, but my favourites would be: A Crewed Interest, To Buy or Not To Buy and Tour de Finance.

The entire collection is posted below and is taken from the Essie website.

Good Afternoon Dolls!

It's reading week right now so I thought I'd make a blog. Just a blog about my daily life nothing too interesting to say the least. My posts will mostly be pictures of my outfits and things that inspire me. I'll try to make my word posts insightful and inspiring, but that's not really my style. My photos won't be the most amazing quality only because I have no one taking my photos nor do I have one of those amazing cameras. Hopefully I will though, just so then the photos on this blog will be a lot more visually attractive. Anyways, I hope you enjoy my blog and anticipate some new posts in the next few days. I hope to do a post at least once a day if I have time. Sorry for the long introduction enjoy loves!
