When it comes to what I wear, I am definitely and unapologetically a creature of habit. Once I find a piece I really, really like, I have no qualms about getting it in more than one colour. I've shared about my love for these L'AGENCE jeans in black (here), and how they work so well for my pear-shaped body. Recently, I added them in this light vintage wash as well, and I think I may like these ones even more. It may be hard to believe, but I've actually never owned a pair of blue jeans …
Wheels
Although it often means tight spaces and shared laundry, living in the city certainly has its perks. Since we moved to the heart of Vancouver almost a year ago, I've stopped driving, taken way less transit, and have spent much less time commuting in general... and I'm certain that it's done wonders for my overall well-being.

Dressed Down Jumpsuit
Who doesn't love a good jumpsuit? Whether it's a jersey one-piece for the daytime, or a more polished option as a formal frock alternative, there's something about wearing one that just instantly pulls a look together.

That's why I love this one from Club Monaco: I'd originally chose it so that I could wear it on more formal occasions, but I've also found that I love how it looks …
Silk Scarf
At the beginning of this year, I set a sartorial goal to incorporate more interest into my personal style by taking more risks. Since I started streamlining and minimizing my closet, I've been feeling like I haven't been able to have as much fun with how I dress. While I've now built a pretty good collection of pieces I love that are very versatile and easily remix-able, more often than I'd like to admit I feel like I'm wearing the same outfit everyday. I know this isn't exactly a revelation, …
The Best Skinny Jeans
My journey to the perfect pair of classic skinny jeans has been a long and pretty arduous one. I believe it started in the eighth grade, when Miss Sixty's were all the rage and the restricted blood flow through my legs and seriously limited movement were tolerated in the name of fashun. Then came years of pulling up the waistband of my low-rise jeans every time I sat down or stood up, lest I expose my undergarments to the adolescent world. In university, I began to use all of my hard earned cash …
