Let me just apologize in advance if my outfits look a little lazy and more relaxed. Although I do wear baggy, comfy clothes on the regular, I do feel that my blogpost outfits should be a little more done up and “stylish”. But lately things have been too hectic for me to dress up.

I feel like I’ve got so much to do and there are definitely not enough hours in a day to do it all. School, work, instagram, blogging, youtube, hanging out with friends… I want to do everything. I’ve really been inspired lately to try to work on my IG, blog, and YouTube more. It’s something I’ve grown passionate about over the past year and I want to grow it further. I wish school wasn’t so time-consuming so that I would actually have time to translate the ideas in my head into bomb content. But I guess most of it will just have to wait until the summer.

Talking about the summer, there are so many things I want to accomplish this summer as well. Other than summer bod 16′, which is something I’ve been trying to achieve in full force, I also want to expand on my experience in my field of study. I’m really hoping that I will either have time to work on my own branding or that I will be able to intern / work part-time in the industry. (PRAYING).

Either way I hope I do something this summer that I can be proud of in years to come. Fingers-crossed!

I’d love to know what you guys have planned for this summer? Traveling? Summer school? Beach bumming? Let me know!

More soon,

I’ve been completely obsessed with having plants in my room lately. To the point where I’ve dedicated a shelf top and a wall shelf to my adorable little plant family. So far I’ve already got 9 different little babies living with me in my room.

While on the hunt for more to add to my collection of succulents, aloes, and cactis I discovered Southland Nurseries. Literally a 5 minute drive from my place, Southlands Nursery is tucked away on W49th Ave south of Marine Drive. I’ve lived in Kerrisdale for a little over 4 years now, and have been going to school in the area for 10 years and I’ve never even heard of this gem! However, I was clearly the only one out of the loop because the place was bustling when I visited on Saturday afternoon. Definitely a place to keep in mind if you’re looking to start a garden or add some indoor plants to your home. They’ve also got really knowledgeable staff who can tell you everything you need to know about home gardening or taking care of plants.

They’ve got an AMAZING selection cacti and succulents!! I found everything I needed there.

For this little Saturday afternoon plant therapy session I wore my Talula denim jacket with a cute thin sweatshirt underneath. Paired with a light crossbody bag and my cream and white Stan Smith sneakers, I thought it was the perfect “beginning of spring” outfit.

What are your current favorite spring outfits? Let me know!

On my most recent trip down to the states I picked up these snake print Adidas SL Loop. I definitely noticed these before but never really knew whether it was worth spending the money on. However, I got lucky, during my trip to Portland I saw these for a discounted price at Nordstrom Rack. I’ve definitely been on a sneaker kick since this past summer and I’ve acquired 5 different pairs of sneakers since the May… Yikes. But since sneakers are actually all the rage right now, it’s the perfect time for me to lounge around in as many different sneakers as I can. Comfort + style. What could be better. 

I love how these pop with a good black outfit. They really do stand out yet the pattern is still subtle. I paired this near-all-black ensemble with a light washed denim jacket which I think helps break up all the darkness. Inside I’m wearing a really simple, crew-neck sweater and I’m using my Matt & Nat backpack. 

This is a pretty good representation of what kind of outfit I usually go for when I’ve got class to attend. I find that the all black makes it look trendy still but I’m still super comfortable and cozy for those cold lecture halls. 

How do you like to wear your sneakers? 

Yet another pair of white sneakers. I had to conform and pick these oldies up. Stan Smiths have been around for ages and ages, and they recently, for some reason, blew up again. For being so popular, they were actually quite the elusive shoe. There was only one store that carried them in my size, in the entire mall. Most stores didn’t even carry women’s sizes.

I have a feeling I’m going to get PLENTY of wear out of these, so I’m super glad I picked them up before the price gets jacked up, or they completely run out of sizes !

Think I’ve worn them every day since I got them :b

What do you think about the Stan Smiths?

Until next time,

WHERE DID THE SUN GO VANCOUVER? Y U DO THIS T_T

Before finals season was over for everyone, Vancouver was BEAUTIFUL. Super sunny and warm. Warm enough that I could put on a dress and feel fine. BUT… of course now after everyone has finished their finals and are ready for Summer, Vancouver has to go and be a total asshole and get cold, gloomy, and cloudy. At least it isn’t raining I guess.. ):

This outfit, and variations of it, is/are definitely something I wear constantly during the fall season. But since the weather lately has been so crappy, I was forced to whip it out again.

I remember when everyone used to wear these Adidas zip-ups. So I decided to whip mine out again! I have a baby blue one … thought it was appropriate for the Spring. And I wanted to add SOME colour to my gloomy outfit to up my mood a little.
