Follow the Leader...

Tired of seeing these pants yet? It seems like no matter where you turn or what blog you visit, there they are in all their flowery glory... Call me a mindless follower if you must, but I just can't stop wearing them — they're just way too cute for their own good!

What trend are you crazy for these days? I wanna know! xx

The Gossip Girl...

What do you think of when you look at this coat? Do images of Serena and Blair kicking it on the upper east side come to mind? Well they certainly do for me, and I'm guessing that they do for Sheinside, because they named it the Gossip Girl Double Button Coat. Coincidence? I think not.

I was so excited when it arrived in the mail last week, because not only was it a perfect fit, but the style was exactly what was missing from my life... It's just the right amount of preppy meets nautical, am I right?

And as if that weren't enough, Sheinside offered to give you guys 20% off any order from now until May 30 when you use the promo code "vickie20" at checkout! Not too shabby, huh? Thanks, Sheinside! xx

The Flashy Girl from Flushing...

Is it me, or does this dress look like it was cut from my grandma's curtains? Or better yet, like it was borrowed from Fran Drescher during her stint on The Nanny? Either way, I'm totally cool with it... After all, I'm practically an 80-year-old woman at heart (ask my friends!), and I'm always down for cheesy 90's sitcoms, so it's pretty much a win-win... And did I mention that it only cost $10? "Get out of here!"*

*If this reference is lost on you, youtube The Nanny immediately... Go on, I'll wait.

Blue Meets World...

You know when you see something and are instantly drawn to it, only you have no idea how to incorporate it into your wardrobe? Well that's what happened when I bought this skirt. It was bright, fun and super cheap (thank you, Forever 21!), but I couldn't for the life of me picture what to wear with it. I can typically picture a couple different looks when I'm shopping, and based on what I already have, I pick new pieces that will function with the rest... Well let me tell you, this was not one of those times. So after countless failed attempts, I gave up on greatness and settled for a simple t-shirt-and-polka-dot-tights combo. What do ya do.

Happy Monday, lovelies! xx

(Un)Easy Rider...

Recognize this skirt? I'm gonna go out on a limb and say no... That's because it typically doesn't get a lot of play, what with its ever-rising slip that leaves me feeling oh-so exposed. Not fun. Regardless, I decided to give it another chance because hey, that's the kind of girl I am... The result? Let's just say you probably won't be seeing this skirt again for a long, long time.

Happy Friday, friendlies! xx

Business in the Front, Party in the Back...

Warning! Warning! The mullet is back and it's making its way to a hemline near you... But fret not my friends, mullet clothing sounds more "Fubar" than it actually is. I for one plan on getting my fill of the trend over the next few months... And with super cheap-n-chic options to choose from, there's no reason not to jump on the bandwagon too! So grab an asymmetrical top, dress, or whatever you can get your hands on and repeat after me: it's mullet time!

Spring Fling...

There's just something about throwing on a bright, "check out my bad self" kind of outfit to pick yourself up on a on a blah day... And in my case, I spared no expense in achieved said brightness. From florals and a neon necklace, all the way to my burn-your-retinas bright dress, this outfit is anything but boring... After all, nobody likes a blah-ger.

Happy Monday, lovelies! xx

Going Green...

What do you wear for a day of antiquing? Well according to this post, a mix of plaid and florals with plenty of green thrown in for good measure... Although to be fair, I didn't exactly come home with many scores (aside from a vintage Boggle set, that is!), so maaaaybe this wasn't the best choice after all. *Shrug*

Happy Friday, my sweets! xx

London Calling...

I don't know what it is, but something about this outfit just screams London to me... Am I crazy, or do you guys feel the same? xx

Wear Canada: Joe Fresh Style

One of my favourite brands (and the best reason to go to Superstore) is definitely Joe Fresh... It's simple, on trend and super affordable. So when FLARE.com asked what my favourite Canadian brand is for their Wear Canada campaign, the answer was a no-brainer.

I bought this blazer a few years ago, and I still love it as much as the day I got it - but you know me and plaid... The top is also super old, but it's definitely one of my favourite Joe purchases because it's just as relevant now as it was when I bought it. Gotta love timeless dressing, right?
