My fall wishlist

So here we are AGAIN. That time of year we wave goodbye to sweet summer days and eating ice cream cones by the pool, and say hello to wool socks & melancholic playlists (am I the only one?). Sure, fall can make us feel a little heavy-hearted and it’s tempting to splurge on anything to make us feel a little better. & that’s why I’m writing down a wishlist, to stick to what I really need (or want the most).

fall_wishlist

Cute mittens
No matter how cold it is outside, it always feels better with cute mittens on. Don’t you agree?
.
Red dress coat
I love dress coats almost as much as I love dresses (which is a LOT). &I can totally see myself walking around in a red dress coat.
.
Notebooks
To me, this season comes with a little lack of motivation. But this doesn’t mean lack of ideas, not at all! That’s why I need cute notebooks to write all of them down for later!
.

Sweater weather
Fall screams comfy and warm outfits, and nothing compares to soft sweaters in comfy-business.
.
Gold watch
I don’t know why this item is STILL on my wishlist, but I really have to get myself a stunning gold watch. I just HAVE to.
.
Sweat pants
Indoor adventures and movie nights with my man is what fall is all about. &Since I plan on wearing sweat pants all the time, I’ll need a few extra pairs.

Wallet
Changing season means changes. Like changing wallet, which I really need.
.
Funny socks
I feel like funny sock could really cheer me up during this time of seasonal affective disorder. 
.
Tartan scarf
Isn’t tartan out? Said no one ever.
I need one of those scarves.
.
Wool headband
Bye bye cold ears. Hello stylish bed head.

What’s on YOUR wishlist?

WHAT TO WEAR / WEEKEND GETAWAY

weekend_getaway_3Last weekend, my boyfriend and I had a little getaway in Montreal. Right before leaving the weather was greyish so I overdressed myself and put on my classic rain boots. When we got there, the sun was shining like it hasn’t been in a long time, and I was stuck in a buttoned-up shirt and my sweaty feet in hot rubber boots. We walked long enough to make me regret my choices about a hundred times. This inspired me to create a comfy outfit I would have loved to wear that day! Lately, I have had a major obsession with embroidery, and this shift dress seems like a dream come true. Topshop, you got me once again.

My spring wishlist

spring wishlist

Overall
Yes I know this one is for babies, but I can only hope they offer it in women size! I just loooooove the heart pocket idea, and I need need NEED a new overall for springtime!
.
Cap
Lately, I’ve been thinking about adding this boyish accessory to my style. This summer, I’m planning on doing it!
.
Hair accessories
I should definitely add more bows and hair accessories to my outfits.
.
Rain boots
I just can’t get over how cute, comfortable and practical rain boots are! I wish I had a pair of every color to match every outfit I wear.

Mint oxfords
With around 50 pairs of shoes in the closet, I guess you can call me a shoe-addict. This spring, I’m drawn to everything mint and a pair of mint oxfords would be just right.
.
Pale Jeans
I don’t remember the last time I wore a pair of those pale worn-out jeans, although I think they are among the very essentials a girl should own. Isn’t it a shame? Hop, on my shopping list!
.
Plants
Gradually adding more greenery to my apartment is one of my spring goals! Although I’m ridiculously black thumbed, I’m hoping that I can take care of 2 or 3 more plants. Succulents for the win!

Stripes!
They make for the perfect everyday lazy/comfy/easy outfits. I just need a new striped beauty like this cute Topshop striped tunic!
.
Purse

So I’ve been carrying the same purse around for 2 years and a half. Don’t I deserve a new one?!
.
White Converse shoes
White converse shoes have been on my wishlist for 3 years, it’s finally time I treat myself with those perfect classic & casual beauties!
.
Gym clothes
Having a beach body ready for summer is all about working out! And working out is always easier in cute & comfy shorts!

Saturday / the weekender bag

I’ve told you before about Kate Spade and my infinite love for that brand. I told you also about SATURDAY, the new affordable label by Kate Spade. What I haven’t told you already is my enormous crush on that bag. The weekender bag, by SATURDAY. It is perfect in every way. Big enough to carry your stuff for a weekend, and cute enough to take everywhere! Plus, there’s a hidden shoe compartment under! Brilliant! There’s also a smaller version of it, here (in the cutest shade of pink!). Now, look at those lovely patterns and tell me you’re not in love with this awesome bag :

So, hey, it’s my birthday in less than a month… Just sayin’! ha!

What to wear / lazy monday

KIT_LAZYMONDAY

Sometimes, starting off a new week is quite challenging. Sometimes you’d rather stay under the blanket for a few more days. When you finally decide to get up, the last thing you want is to dress up in something tight and uncomfortable. You wanna dress lazy, but still look like a lady. Here I am today, showing you two outfits I prepared for days like this. Time to let your jogging pants aside!

Which one of these would you wear on a lazy (but still lady) day?

My spring wishlist

Capture d’écran 2013-04-04 à 11.07.04

This is finally it! Good weather is slowly (but surely!) pushing away the bad, and grass is showing up and recovering from the weight of the snow. New season means new goals, new ideas and changes. (Just like a second New Year for me!) Here are some of the things high on my wishlist for spring!

GOLD. You heard me before, I LOVE gold and metalics. I am planning on redecorating some spaces in my appartement adding a touch of gold! That print and those shoes are fantastic!

LIGHTINGS. I am also planning on adding special lights and lamps in my space. I love those bulbs in a cage.

SHOES. This season means trading boots for shoes! Those Keds Kate Spade Edition are simply the cutest! But while the snow is still melting and the ground is muddy, pattern rainboots are a pleasure to wear!

BIRDCAGE UMBRELLA. I’ve been wanting one for so long, but never took the time to look for it. Now it is finally time to be stylish in the rain! (why not make the bad weather feel a little happier?)

BAGS. In the summertime, it’s good to take my camera all around because there is so much to shoot. A good camera bag is something I should really get for that matter. I love those with a vintage look! Also, I love the Baggu reusable bags. They have the cutest pattern and shapes!

PLANTS. Yes, someday I’ll become good at keeping plants. I need a few more of those!

What to wear / family dinner

KIT_FAMILYDINNER

Today, I have brought together two new outfits on a family-dinner theme for you. ‘Cause even if your family have probably seen you in your worst days, doesn’t mean you don’t have to dress up for them. I don’t see my family so often now that I’m grown up, so when I do, I love to leave a good impression in my best clothes. Can you feel how excited I am about Spring coming soon? I just can’t wait to trade my boots for heels!

Which one of these would you wear on a family dinner?

What to wear / an interview

KIT_interview

Today, I am introducing you to my personnal tastes once again, by showing you two looks I would definitely wear for a job interview. (I am a graphic designer, remember!) It can be quite stressful to meet your futur employer, so it’s important to feel confident but still comfortable in the clothes you are wearing. I love the little details in an outfit, like this heart-shape ring or the glitters on those black heels !

Which one of these would make you feel confident enough for a job interview?
