Trend Crush: Palm Prints

blazer: joie | clutch: dezso | bikini: beach riot | dress: club monaco

I'm really loving this palm print trend. Playful yet a little edgy and so perfect for summer. I especially love the blazer by Joie. Will you wear this tropical print this summer?

I'm off to Toronto today to finally see my family and friends since getting engaged. One of the many reasons living far from home can be hard. We are spending the weekend at my cottage to celebrate and catch up, and hopefully enjoy some sunshine. Then I head to Toronto with my girl friends to try on wedding dresses, I can't wait!

Thankfully July and August will calm down a little. Not that I haven't enjoyed all of the travel and chaos over the past few months (May and June have been a bit overwhelming), but I look forward to a little down time. I have also decided to begin a Weekend Snapshots series on the blog. I always love sharing photos of what my month looked like, and thought why not share photos like these every week? I hope you enjoy it! Have a lovely long weekend.

I hope you all enjoyed a lovely weekend! Vancouver has been experience a little bit of the "Juneuary" syndrome over the past few days, hopefully the sunny skies will return soon.

I've partnered up with the Coquitlam Centre to share some of my favourite summer pieces over the next few weeks. Starting with some summer trends I can't live without! 

As I've mentioned before, I'm loving the structured cross body bags right now, and am seriously in love with this Foley + Corinna bag! Another piece I can't get enough of are my Karen Walker sunglasses. The tortoise shell print goes with everything. As far as my summer beauty must haves, some SPF concealer, lip gloss and a spritz of texturizing hair spray and I'm good to go! 

All pieces can be found at some of my favourite stores at the Coquitlam Centre. Happy shopping!

Denim Dress

dress: anthropologie | purse: tory burch | sandals: madewell | sunglasses: karen walker | rings: Charlie and Lee

Do you ever find you have something in your closet that every time you see it you say to yourself "I should really wear that more"? Well this dress is one of those items. I found it at Anthropologie ages ago on sale for next to nothing, and really love it, but have worn it maybe twice. Then I found these sandals. I love these sandals. I am considering buying another pair or two because I love them so much. Well they seem to have solved this dress problem I was having. You see, sometimes something is just not quite right until it has the perfect accessory. Which is exactly how I feel about this dress, until these sandals came along it was incomplete.
