I’ll be honest: I didn’t have high expectations for this outfit … and I ended up LOVING it. Yes, all caps and everything. It’s another one of those basic/boring looks I seem to be specializing in these days, but I’m digging how the two-toned thing turned out – especially the blush-on-blush combo of the blazer and top. I’m looking forward to repeating it soon.

I know I’ve bitched about this Topshop blazer before (and the complaints still stand), but I will say this: if and when this blazer bites the dust, I’ll be on the lookout for another version. Who knew that a blush blazer could be such a useful staple piece? Lesson learned.

Nothing groundbreaking to see here, folks. Just a simple casual outfit that I decided you simply had to see. Aren’t you glad?

I actually wore this outfit on Canada Day, and while it isn’t a particularly thematic choice, I think it can be filed under “nice try”. The shoes are red, and what’s more Canadian than red, eh? Right? Right.

I’m sorry, you guys. I’m sure you’re heartily sick of this dress by now. I am, too, kinda. Except that it’s a really, ridiculously flattering, ridiculously comfortable thing, and I just can’t stop wearing it. If we still had Target up here in Canada (sob), and if Merona had put out some new print version of this dress this summer, I would be buying multiples. Trust.

Also a great summer piece? This white flower necklace. So big, so “two years ago”, so cute. White is a lovely summer accent colour – it’s “light” and goes with everything. Ditto for flowers, of course.
