TOP KNOT






Jacket {Can't find direct link online but this one is the same jacket in a different colour}

 Spring is finally here, which means cute dresses and sneakers are going to be worn non-stop. This look is an outfit I tend to wear a lot in the spring/summer months, especially on weekends and to work on "casual day's" which happens to be on Friday's. I will even wear this exact look but switching out the boat shoes for a dressier flat instead if I chose to wear this look during the work week or on a date night. This look is so comfortable but you still look stylish and put together.

LIPSTICKS THAT MAKE YOUR TEETH WHITER




I am all about wearing lipsticks that make my teeth appear whiter then what they really are. I do whiten my teeth occasionally with whitening strips as well as using whitening toothpaste but I also like to make my teeth appear even whiter with lipsticks that have blue undertones in them. This has been a beauty trick that I have been doing for a really long time and my teeth really do appear whiter.

There are a tone of lip products on the market that have blue undertones in them but I have rallied up some for you that would be great options and some of these are my personal favorites as well.

CASUAL // PREPPY







Similar Jeans

Casual/preppy looks is definitely one of my favorite weekend outfits to wear but during the work week I ditch the sneakers and wear a heel or a pointed flat for a more work appropriate look. You can honestly never go wrong with a toned down coloured jean, a strip long sleeve with a blazer.

TRIANGL SWIMWEAR REVIEW




 Colourful fun bikinis? Um, YES PLEASE!

Triangl Swimwear is where it's at!
Today I am going to be sharing my love and personal review on two styles of the Triangl Swimwear line and filling you all in on what us girls love and need to know before purchasing a new bikini.

All of the Triangl Swimwear bikinis are made from structured "Neoprene" material which is the same material that they use for wetsuits (scuba wear). Neoprene fit's firm on the body, it is light weight and thicker than the usual "spandex" bikini. Neoprene has a greater resistance to stretch, which means it won't lose it's shape over time and wear. Amazing right? We all know how annoying it can be to wear certain bikinis and having the bottoms stretch right out and no one want's a saggy bum, it's just not cute.

The two bikinis that I will be reviewing today are extremely comfortable (no, I am not over exaggerating here), if you own any one of these bikinis, I am sure you would agree with me, they are not like any other ordinary material swim suit. The Neoprene material dry's really quick and it hugs all the right spots for a comfortable and confident feel.


My Size:
Top: XS
Bottoms: Small 

This bikini has a "Balconnet" style bikini top, it has moulded cups with an underwire, back clasp fastening and it has adjustable shoulder straps for comfort. These straps do not come off any of the Triangl bikinis but that is ok, as I really love the look of the thin straps and not to mention, these straps give the perfect amount of push up that every girl would want. The bottoms are pretty full coverage with the sides sitting a little higher on the hips.

The Poppy bikini comes in a variety of fun colours. I really like the two tone bottoms and the three colours for the bikini top. I also have the Milly Bikini in Candy Pink which is also super cute and is the exact same bikini as the Poppy but in a solid colour with the black detailing.


My Size:
Top: XS
Bottoms: Small

This bikini has a "Bra" style top that also has a back clasp fastening with the same style adjustable shoulder straps. It is also made with neoprene material with a mesh detail on the bikini top which I love as it gives a more detailed look.   

This top isn't as padded as the Poppy bikini and it doesn't have any underwire to give any "major" push up which you may prefer over the other style. Keep in mind though, with this style and  adjustable straps, it will give you some lift but not as much as the Poppy bikini.

I usually tend to wear "bandeau" style bikini tops as I am not very chesty and I find that they flatter my body better and give me the best push up. With that being said, I really love this Bambi style top as it is something different that I don't typically wear and it looks and feels great on and it gives me enough lift to feel confident.

Feeling comfortable and confident in a bikini is always important for anyone to feel when wearing a swimsuit. I really do recommend trying out the Triangl Swimwear bikinis if you haven't already and see if you like Neoprene material better. I guarantee you will!

How to care for these Neoprene Bikinis

- Hand Wash always. It is best to hand wash in cool water with a light/mild detergent
- Lay flat to dry {always}
- Always rinse bikinis after being in salt water or chlorinated pools/hot tubs
- Never fold or iron
- Never place these bikinis in a dryer
-Never bleach
- It is best to store these bikinis laying flat when not wearing

Sizing 

You can find their sizing chart here. If you are still unsure on what size to get because of the "Neoprene" material, then definitely start up a live chat which will be located on the bottom right of their page and their lovely customer service reps will be gladly to help you 24/7.

I chatted back and forth with them a few times on sizing and they were a great help and I had no issues with sizing once I received them in the mail, which made me really happy.

DENIM // LACE








I am a sucker for any outfit that is southern inspired. Riding boots, tall socks, a lace dress and a denim jacket, yes please! This adorable look is definitely spring and summer inspired. It has been so mild here in Toronto that I wanted pull out some of my dresses and wear them again which is am extremely excited about.

ON THE BRIGHT SIDE









I always love a good edgy look by wearing a moto jacket, grey jeans and some slip on sneakers but sometimes an outfit like that can look washed out and look just blah. Adding a bright coloured scarf and/or handbag will instantly transform an edgy look to a more feminine "look at me" edge that you will want to repeat over and over. I wore this look over the weekend to run some errands in and I had a few people stop and compliment me on this look and how they loved the bright accessories.
