Denim Bralet

Hope all of you've had a good weekend! We're late but still wanted to wish everyone Eid Mubarak and Happy Friendship day!!

Now onto the outfit. How to wear a bralet:

So we always thought bralets were a risky garment to pull off but a lot of people have been sporting the trend. It's a super playful trend but we think that they should be worn with high waisted bottoms. Here we've paired it with some high waisted white shorts. But depending on where you are or where you're going you could pair it with shorts, short skirts, midi skirts, maxi skirts or even some high waisted jeans! To cover up a little more you can throw on a chunky cardigan over it or even a blazer. Take the chancy leap like we did and try this trend out as well!!!

Quote of the day

Vintage Silver

We misplaced our gold belt that was similar to this one, so when we saw this we had to have it. We've used the belt to accessorise out next outfit  post. It's just a very simple and laid back look. Hope you guys will like that!

Camouflage Top and Studded Metallic Hi-tops

So, if we had to join the army this is what we'd hope would be our uniform. A camouflage tie top paired with a nice high waisted skirt and pair of studded metallic hi-top trainers/sneakers. Perfect uniform eh? ;). A nice laid back outfit perfect for a day that involves walking!

The Story Continues...

This high waisted full skirt in a sort of skater skirt shape is just so comfortable and girly and perfect for the summer! I'd actually got this skirt while I was working at Gilly Hicks as a model while at uni. Who wouldn't want to wear that work right!!!!

It elongates (much needed since we both are quite petite) and accentuates the narrowest part of the body. Paired with the sky high pink peep toes gives it that pop of colour but it would look just as nice pared with some nice ballet flats or even some pretty flip flops! Would you wear this look? And don't forget to find us on instagram!

This top is just perfect to soak up the sun during those hot summer days! Zea loves the sun too so she was out with us trying to get her tiny self on the rock while enjoying the sunshine as well. Sadly this top wasn't long enough to be a dress so I just wore the plain black skirt I got made while I was in India a while back.

Lace Shorts

Since we'd left Toronto/Hamilton we were both in different places and hence the long look book hiatus. Before we'd left picked up these lace shorts at winners cause we fell completely in love with them. Love that they can be dressed up or down and are incredibly comfortable. For a (more) chic and feminine appeal paired it with the black corset. What's your take on lace shorts?

The Most Comfortable Shoes

These Zara flats are the most comfortable shoes we've bought so far and therefore deserve an exclusive post! Most ballet flats that are flexible and have elastic piping around them tend to dig into our skin a little most of the time. But that's not the case with this pair of ballet flats. It's that flat elastic band and not the round piping that just lays comfortably on the foot! Sometimes it just has to be all about comfort right?

Target In Canada

Targets Canadian invasion! We've always heard about collaborations with various designers, have been to the store in the US but when we went to the Target Apparel store in Edmonton a little while back it was a HUGE disappointment. Nothing really stood out. We should have probably gone into the store with no expectations and maybe we would have found something worth getting (or Not). But that's just how we felt about this retail giant.

The Gold Belt

♥ We really liked this outfit cause it's just easy to put together. But the day I wore it all I remember were the giant mosquitoes because it literally felt as though they were sucking every ounce of my blood. 

Hope you guys like the look!

The Red Skinny Tie

Niagara Falls

This was the outfit that I wore to Niagara falls. Was perfect for the sunny weather. Had no denim on or anything thick that would take too long to dry cause we went on the Maid of the Mist, the boat that takes you incredibly close to the falls so getting wet even with the raincoat on is almost inevitable. We've been to the falls in the past but this was the first time that I've been on the boat and it was definitely worth doing. If anyone plans on visiting the falls this is definitely a must do!

Our Vintage Earrings (Part II)

♥ These are just a few more earrings from our Vintage collection.

Melting Away

Wore this outfit a while back in Edmonton. The weather was just perfect and hence the jacket. It's been so hot here over the past few days feels like I'm gradually going to melt away. Really looking forward to Edmonton's 18 degree weather. BUT we definitely wouldn't trade this weather for some snow. Would you?

Put a ring on it!

♥ We are having a slight double ring/connector ring/two finger ring obsession at the moment and these are just a few rings that we've recently purchased. Who'd have thought knuckle dusters could ever be made feminine and edgy!

Straw Hats and Railway Tracks

We love these tap shorts. They are just incredibly comfortable and so lightweight. And the straw hat is just perfect for those sunny days, simply when you're trying to embrace the weather or like us just trying to make believe it's the peak of summer!

Our Vintage Earrings (Part I)

We've been a little obsessed with vintage earrings lately so thought why not share it! Here are a just a few to start of with! 

Floral Sunshine

(Reposted this look since it disappeared yesterday during bloggers maintenance issues.)

A friend whose creating a portfolio wanted us to model for it and we realized that the shoots could work for our outfits of the day . All the images are a mix taken from her camera and ours. 

Since it was incredibly sunny we wanted an outfit that really fit the weather. Wore the pink tank top with a floral skirt and the green platforms cause it felt very spring/summer fresh!

Ripped Denim Shorts

When it gets really warm here feel like we need to soak up as much sunshine as we can. Because before we know it the snow will start to bury the whole place. So just wore this white racer back top with the little gold detailing and some ripped denim shorts and a pair of Aldo boots that's just folded over! This outfit was just so comfortable and perfect for the weather! Nothing beats comfort right? at least that's the case most of the time.
