Styling, Olympics...

going for SILVER

going for SILVER

Silver is a neutral staple in anyone's closet. It can be the base of an outfit, the pop of something sparkly, or mix it in a sequin it is a statement all on its own.  

Yesterday was all about {Bronze} medals today is all about going for the silver!

My closet is filled with lots of grey sweaters, more silver jewellery than anyone should have, however I do not have any silver shoes!  Most I find are too stripper like or trashy, but loving both the heels and the TOMS in the collage; something I might have to consider adding this fall.  My favourite piece above though is that pattern smoking jacket!  In the words of uber-stylist Rachel Zoe, I DIE! 

Strive to always find these neutral pieces when shopping and add them to your closet.  This colour will never go out of style, just like winning a SILVER medal at the Olympics, it is always fashionable!

Styling, Olympics...


I have been FULLY engrossed in all things Olympics since they opened on Friday night!  
This week I decided to bring out MEDAL inspired collages!




going for BRONZE


In honor of Canada's first medal at these 2012 games, bronze in diving, today's post highlights just that!  Bronze is not an easy colour to find especialy when it is not fall, however when you find it, scoop it up!  It is a colour that is EXTREMLY versatile and would slip into your closet very easily.

Click on the above photo to see where to get these items.

Also, it is Monday and thus you may begin to wish for Friday!   Enjoy your day!

WIW...

I talked about the blogger event I attended {here} and all the ladies looked fantastic!  Since the event was on a lovely Sunday afternoon, I broke out a brand new sundress topped with lots of gold jewels I thought was the way to go!  Also a pop of mint to keep it FRESH and oh so summery.

Here is what I wore.


Wearing Old Navy dress | Payless shoes | Top Shop ring | Lauren Elan bracelet |

Big thanks to Karen from {KillerKurves} for taking these pictures for me!  What us bloggers do for each other..lol

Olympics...

The COUNTDOWN is on!!!  Olympic Opening Ceremonies are in 3 days! Friday night to be exact.  I am giddy with excitement.  As a kid all I wanted to do was go to the Olympics, and well since we all know that didn't happen, I will settle for being a PROUD CANADIAN Athlete supporter!  I will be doing a few Olympic posts well because it is my blog and I can! hahaha

To start off, here are some great fashions being sported by some countries.  I couldn't find a picture of what our Canadian athletes will be wearing for the opening ceremonies but was able to find a picture of the track teams uniforms!

What are your favourite events?  Have an athlete you are personally rooting for?  Since my viewership is world wide let me know which country your support too!  Let me know in the comments!!

TEAM CANADA

TEAM JAMAICA

 TEAM DENMARK

TEAM BELIZE

TEAM NETHERLANDS (might be the best dressed)

TEAM NEW ZELAND

 TEAM SOUTH KOREA

TEAM USA

Summer Fun...

Among some of the fun things I did this weekend was head into the city for a blogger closet event!  Some of the great CURVY Bloggers from the city opened their closets and did a clothing sale.  I had nothing to sell sadly because when {Karen} announced the event I had just donated a bunch of clothes to good will.
boo urns.  But for those ladies that did I know a bunch of curvy girls that say THANK YOU!  I didn't see anyone leave without a bag!  Even I scored a vintage dress that I might wear to an upcoming concert, which of course I will showcase on here!

Thanks to {Karen} for putting on the event, it went soooo well.  Also shout out to all my ladies!  Always nice to catch up with some bloggers, talk shop, fashion, boys and all the stuff that makes girl chat all that much more fun!

Hope you had a good weekend as well with WHATEVER you got up too!


Just some of the cool bloggers and peeps as we hung outside... the temp was cooler! lol
Thanks to Courtney (in green) for letting me bogart this pic!
