I tried perking myself up by concocting a medley of florals and polka dots — heck, I even threw in a pop of coral for good measure — but no dice.

From preppy layers and polka dots, to girlie dresses and prints-galore, there's no shortage of remixing possibilities and I intend to try them all... <i>Challenge accepted</i>.<br /><br />My favourite way to wear this blazer so far has been over lightweight dresses, particularly the white <a href="http://adventures-in-fashion.blogspot.ca/2012/05/light-as-feather.html" target="_blank">feather dress</a> pictured above. The light colours and contrasting textures work really well together, giving the illusion of a fresh, spring-ready look that still keeps you relatively warm (say what!). In fact, I liked this look from last May so much that I recreated it with a similar blazer <a href="http://adventures-in-fashion.blogspot.ca/2013/02/valentines-week-diy-glitter-heart-pins.html" target="_blank">here</a>....

To bring this point home, let me tell you a little story: When I described this outfit to my friend <a href="https://onceuponanoutfit.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">Ashley</a> yesterday, she lifted her hand, drew a deep breath and matter-of-factly said "no" before I could get past the varsity jacket. She was <i>probably</i> right but what can I say, I'm a sucker for a little festive colour blocking... Bring it on, Valentine's! xx<br /><br /><span style="font-size: x-small;">Outfit details: varsity jacket- Forever 21; blouse- Topshop; dress- Forever 21; necklace- Urban Outfitters; navajo sequin clutch- Topshop; pumps- ShoeMint; bracelet- House of Harlow; watch- Michael Kors</span>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13873417544706809691noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5628032241615915377.post-38838069958124624712013-02-08T06:00:00.000-08:002013-02-23T20:44:44.382-08:00{Details} Weekend Essentials...<img alt=" photo IMG_9431_zps2b887d73.jpg" border="0" src="http://i721.photobucket.com/albums/ww212/tarvs/more%20pics/IMG_9431_zps2b887d73.jpg" /> <img alt=" photo IMG_9424_zps75dbe1e3.jpg" border="0" src="http://i721.photobucket.com/albums/ww212/tarvs/more%20pics/IMG_9424_zps75dbe1e3.jpg" /> <img alt=" photo IMG_9455-1_zps05c87ee4.jpg" border="0" src="http://i721.photobucket.com/albums/ww212/tarvs/more%20pics/IMG_9455-1_zps05c87ee4.jpg" /><br /><br /><span style="font-size: x-large;">I</span>f you ask me, weekend wear should exclusively consist of oversized denim shirts piled with heaps of accessories.

Huzzah! And with a childhood worth of experience working with <a href="http://www.shrinkydinks.com/" target="_blank">Shrinky Dinks</a>, I was rearing to go. Now my version might not be as chic as Miss Spade's, but since I already had chain, glue and jump rings to start with, this bad boy cost less than $2 to make... Did your jaw just drop too? <br /><br />Want to make a clear statement necklace of your own? Here's what you've got to do:<br /><br /><img alt=" photo new_zpse16d7cc9.jpg" border="0" src="http://i721.photobucket.com/albums/ww212/tarvs/more%20pics/new_zpse16d7cc9.jpg" /><br /><br />1. Use a pencil to draw the shape of your necklace. You want it to be about 3x bigger than your desired end result (it shrinks — <i>a lot</i>). <br />2. Carefully cut out your shape, taking care to make the edges as smooth as possible.<br />3. Use a hole punch to make two openings to later attach your jump rings from.<br />4. Follow the instructions on your Shrinky Dinks package to bake your necklace, and watch as it shrivels and shrinks before your eyes!<br />5. After cooling for a few minutes, arrange your craft jewels as you would like them to appear.<br />6. Using jewelry glue, secure the jewels to your plastic base. Let dry for a few minutes.<br />7. Attach the jump rings and your desired chain, before leaning back to admire your handiwork... <i>You're a rockstar</i>.<br /><br /> <img alt=" photo IMG_9574_zps021b58c6.jpg" border="0" src="http://i721.photobucket.com/albums/ww212/tarvs/more%20pics/IMG_9574_zps021b58c6.jpg" />Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13873417544706809691noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5628032241615915377.post-57339328442879936962013-02-05T06:00:00.000-08:002013-02-23T20:44:44.667-08:00{Style} Leather Detailing...<img alt=" photo IMG_9313_zpsb57400a6.jpg" border="0" src="http://i721.photobucket.com/albums/ww212/tarvs/more%20pics/IMG_9313_zpsb57400a6.jpg" /> <img alt=" photo IMG_9330_zps92a3fac3.jpg" border="0" src="http://i721.photobucket.com/albums/ww212/tarvs/more%20pics/IMG_9330_zps92a3fac3.jpg" /> <img alt=" photo IMG_9350_zps3e12d58f.jpg" border="0" src="http://i721.photobucket.com/albums/ww212/tarvs/more%20pics/IMG_9350_zps3e12d58f.jpg" /> <br /><br /><span style="font-size: x-large;">F</span>aux leather is <i>totally</i> my jam, so any opportunity to double up — say in a nice shorts/blazer combo — is fine by me.

It's just such a fun, festive piece that I can't help but come back to time and time again.

The verdict? It's pretty much the greatest manicure known to man. The end result is just so chic and fun, and the glitter really takes it up a notch.

A few of you already commented about the whole washing situation (which <i>believe me</i>, I already thought about), but I don't mind— I'll spot wash this bad boy if I have to! To be honest, I was planning on getting rid of this shirt anyway, but a little sprinkle of glitter has made it seem (both literally AND figuratively) all shiny and new again.

Sound like something you might be interested in? Of course it does, because you guys are awesome.<br /><br />Here's what you need to do: <br /><br /><img alt=" photo glittercollarcopy_zps42b9a477.jpg" border="0" src="http://i721.photobucket.com/albums/ww212/tarvs/more%20pics/glittercollarcopy_zps42b9a477.jpg" /><br /><br />1. Gather the goods: Mod Podge, glitter, a paint brush and, last but not least, an unsuspecting blouse.<br />2. Start by ironing a crease onto the collar so you know exactly were the glue should go (I wanted a little white to stay visible, but you can cover the entire collar if you prefer). Once that's done, start painting even coats of Mod Podge onto the collar, working in small sections.<br />3. Sprinkle a generous helping of glitter onto the wet glue. Repeat steps 2 & 3 until the collar is entirely covered.<br />4. After the glitter dries (and your glue-related headache subsides), paint a final layer of Mod Podge onto the glitter to cure it. Dry overnight (and get some fresh air— you'll need it) for best results. <br /><br /><img alt=" photo IMG_8468_zps5976955b.jpg" border="0" src="http://i721.photobucket.com/albums/ww212/tarvs/more%20pics/IMG_8468_zps5976955b.jpg" /><br /><br />Is this the easiest DIY in the world, you ask? Why yes, <i>yes it is</i>.

This time, it's all about glitter... Because from clothing and accessories, to beauty and back, everything looks better with glitter, no? <br /><br />I have a full week of glittery goodness planned for you guys, but let's kick things off (so to speak) with these sparkly loafers. They were a gift from my buddy <a href="http://www.kastles.ca/" target="_blank">Kastles</a> last summer, and I couldn't love them more. Seriously now, they're comfy, cute and they take that whole "spring in your step" thing to a new level. What's not to love?<br /><br />Thanks for reading love bugs, and be sure to check back in tomorrow for more glitter action! xx<br /><br /><span style="font-size: x-small;">Outfit details:striped blazer- H&M (similar <a href="http://rstyle.me/~cmvm" target="_blank">here</a> and <a href="http://rstyle.me/~d79B" target="_blank">here</a>); denim shirt- Topshop; jeans- Target (borrowed from <a href="http://www.kastles.ca/" target="_blank">Kastles</a>); clutch- BCBG; necklace- Forever 21; bracelet- House of Harlow; gold watch & ring- Michael Kors; glitter loafers- Target (similar <a href="http://rstyle.me/~d79p" target="_blank">here</a>)</span>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13873417544706809691noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5628032241615915377.post-85199001997750054312013-01-25T06:00:00.000-08:002013-02-23T20:44:45.327-08:00{Style} Casual Friday...<img alt=" photo IMG_8184copy_zps9ad00ed8.jpg" border="0" src="http://i721.photobucket.com/albums/ww212/tarvs/more%20pics/IMG_8184copy_zps9ad00ed8.jpg" /> <img alt=" photo IMG_8161copy_zpsf07d160c.jpg" border="0" src="http://i721.photobucket.com/albums/ww212/tarvs/more%20pics/IMG_8161copy_zpsf07d160c.jpg" /><br /><br /><span style="font-size: x-large;">T</span>he weekend is here, and I for one am mega excited (yes, I said <i>mega</i>) to kick back, relax and maybe even do a little shopping while Mr. AiF's out of town. Hey, <i>when the cat's away</i>, am I right? Nothing crazy, just a thing or two to spice things up a bit... You know what else I'm particularly looking forward to this weekend? Uninterrupted, quality time with my old pal Netfix without so much as a peep about my (totally awesome) movie selections... Looks like it's just going to be me and Teen Wolf this Friday night — <i>hubba hubba.</i><br /><br /><span style="font-size: x-small;">Outfit details: camo jacket- Zara; denim shirt- Topshop; cross dress c/o Lulus.com; leather clutch- American Apparel; beanie- Zara; bracelet- Forever 21; gold watch- Michael Kors</span>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13873417544706809691noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5628032241615915377.post-14262555755083296672013-01-24T10:35:00.000-08:002013-02-23T20:44:45.421-08:00{Details} Current Favourites...<img alt=" photo IMG_8916copy_zpsf41e1389.jpg" border="0" src="http://i721.photobucket.com/albums/ww212/tarvs/more%20pics/IMG_8916copy_zpsf41e1389.jpg" /><br /><div style="text-align: left;"><i> Pretty pink bits, from jewelry & sunglasses, to candles & wedding magazines</i></div><br /> <img alt=" photo IMG_8888copy_zpsd190303e.jpg" border="0" src="http://i721.photobucket.com/albums/ww212/tarvs/more%20pics/IMG_8888copy_zpsd190303e.jpg" /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><i> This detailed collar on my new <a href="http://www.boutiqueonze.ca/en/shimmering-chic-dress" target="_blank">dress</a> c/o <a href="http://www.boutiqueonze.ca/" target="_blank">Boutique Onze</a></i></div><br /><img alt=" photo IMG_8878copy_zps86296704.jpg" border="0" src="http://i721.photobucket.com/albums/ww212/tarvs/more%20pics/IMG_8878copy_zps86296704.jpg" /><br /><div style="text-align: left;"><i><a href="http://rstyle.me/~cIxh" target="_blank"> NARS Sheer Glow foundation</a>, <a href="http://rstyle.me/~cIyc" target="_blank">Josie Maran Argan Oil</a> & <a href="http://rstyle.me/~cIyY" target="_blank">Clarins Instant Light Lip Perfector</a> </i></div><br /><img alt=" photo photo-189_zpsc4c3398f.jpg" border="0" src="http://i721.photobucket.com/albums/ww212/tarvs/more%20pics/photo-189_zpsc4c3398f.jpg" /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><i>My engagement ring, which I still can't stop starting at</i></div>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13873417544706809691noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5628032241615915377.post-35950601633064065462013-01-23T06:00:00.000-08:002013-02-23T20:44:45.579-08:00{Style} Purple Pop...<img alt=" photo IMG_8606_zps1dc6b238.jpg" border="0" src="http://i721.photobucket.com/albums/ww212/tarvs/more%20pics/IMG_8606_zps1dc6b238.jpg" /> <img alt=" photo IMG_8640_zps834bd4c5.jpg" border="0" src="http://i721.photobucket.com/albums/ww212/tarvs/more%20pics/IMG_8640_zps834bd4c5.jpg" /> <img alt=" photo IMG_8625_zps083861c9.jpg" border="0" src="http://i721.photobucket.com/albums/ww212/tarvs/more%20pics/IMG_8625_zps083861c9.jpg" /> <img alt=" photo IMG_8574_zpsedddbeba.jpg" border="0" src="http://i721.photobucket.com/albums/ww212/tarvs/more%20pics/IMG_8574_zpsedddbeba.jpg" /> <br /><br /><img alt=" photo IMG_8593_zps507fa55d.jpg" border="0" src="http://i721.photobucket.com/albums/ww212/tarvs/more%20pics/IMG_8593_zps507fa55d.jpg" /><br /><span style="font-size: x-small;"> </span><br /><span style="font-size: x-small;">Outfit details: <a href="http://rstyle.me/~cv47" target="_blank">collar tip blouse</a>- Topshop; cardigan (similar style <a href="http://rstyle.me/~cv52" target="_blank">here</a>)- Forever 21; faux leather shorts (similar <a href="http://rstyle.me/~cv5F" target="_blank">here</a>)- H&M; booties- Shoe Mint; leather clutch- vintage; bracelets- H&M & The Bay; necklace- thrifted; <a href="http://rstyle.me/~cv77" target="_blank">gold watch</a>- Michael Kors</span>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13873417544706809691noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5628032241615915377.post-81386246067052262382013-01-22T06:00:00.000-08:002013-02-23T20:44:45.673-08:00{Style} Floral Fest...<img alt=" photo IMG_8414_zpsdc306318.jpg" border="0" src="http://i721.photobucket.com/albums/ww212/tarvs/more%20pics/IMG_8414_zpsdc306318.jpg" /> ><img alt=" photo IMG_8402_zpscd7b26b3.jpg" border="0" src="http://i721.photobucket.com/albums/ww212/tarvs/more%20pics/IMG_8402_zpscd7b26b3.jpg" /> <img alt=" photo floral_zps5eb3570e.jpg" border="0" src="http://i721.photobucket.com/albums/ww212/tarvs/more%20pics/floral_zps5eb3570e.jpg" /> <img alt=" photo IMG_8420_zpsd1ee6821.jpg" border="0" src="http://i721.photobucket.com/albums/ww212/tarvs/more%20pics/IMG_8420_zpsd1ee6821.jpg" /> <img alt=" photo IMG_8437_zpse42562c9.jpg" border="0" src="http://i721.photobucket.com/albums/ww212/tarvs/more%20pics/IMG_8437_zpse42562c9.jpg" /><br /><br /><span style="font-size: x-large;">W</span>ant to know the best part of my weekend?

And just in time for another generous helping of snow...
