This month’s issue was an elevated take on being #BoredInTheHouse. After months of endless loungewear, it felt about time to get all dressed up with nowhere to go. Bring...

Not so much a moodboard this month, as more of a visual reflection of the past few weeks. Professionally, it was a trying month, but ultimately so rewarding. Personally, our search for the perfect home continues, and so does my ongoing inspiration sourcing. At its core, July has been a month of dreaming for me, and for creating. I’m so very excited about all that is to come. Finally, a reminder that I wish I had known when I was younger the way that I do now: you are only as pretty as you treat people. As you get...
This month has been a rollercoaster, with more ups and downs than I can count. On a personal note, I feel very grateful to have experienced a beautiful, quarantined birthday at home. It was filled with surprise deliveries from my loved ones and simple joys. But even though it may feel like we’re living in our own bubble, it is impossible to ignore the events surrounding us. It has been a heartbreaking month. Both in terms of the state of the pandemic, and continued police brutality on the Black community. My hope is that some of the action taken...
When I created my last Loungewear Edit, I truly believed at that point that one would be enough to get us through what I then-believed would be a short period of Quarantine. Now, here we are… two months later, and still relying on tie dye loungewear to keep us comfortable and prevent us from losing our minds. In this new edition, I tried to go in a *slightly* more neutral direction, favouring pieces that won’t necessarily feel stuck in time, tied to memories of self-isolation. I’m looking at lots of neutrals that feel appropriate for actually leaving the house...
Another month in self-isolation, another vision board that doesn’t extend beyond the very immediate future. So let’s jump in, shall we? This month, I’m focusing on the things giving me joy in quarantine – wine, books, fresh flowers, pancakes on Saturday, a coordinated mask & dress look from Tracy Feith, more books… Sandra Oh on the cover of Elle Canada for a bit of fashion fantasy. The Ritz Paris and the Ritz-Carlton Hong Kong… aka the two places I’m flying immediately the moment I’m able to. What are you dreaming about right now? ICYMI, check out last month’s moodboard...
What a month it has been. I don’t know about you, but in terms of motivation and inspiration, I’ve been all over the place in April. Acceptance and joy one day, followed by melancholy and uncertainty the next. Some mornings, I have the drive to feel polished and get dressed up for a #QOOTD/#infitOfTheDay, and others I’ve made a duvet fort on the couch where I don’t move save to refill my water/coffee/wine glass. I’m sure I’m not the only one in this boat! I think we can all afford to give ourselves a bit of break while we...
In this time of self-isolation, I’ve come to seriously look forward to #FancyFriday. Whether or not I’m participating myself (because honestly, loungewear is life right now), I’ve loved watching the ladies I follow on IG get dolled up. It might seem frivolous to some, but I firmly believe in the magic of dressing up. And after all, in times like these, we need to find reasons to celebrate life more than ever, don’t we? I decided to start living my best quarantine life this week, which includes adding a bit of extra time to get fancy at the end...
Well, we’re officially into week three of quarantine, and if you’re anything like me, you probably can’t remember the last time you wore actual clothing. My life consists of combing through my loungewear shelves and trying to come up with different pairings that feel cute and fresh, but still cozy. The one thing that has been bringing me joy is trying to wear as many colours and prints as I did during my life in the “outside world.” I treated myself with a few updated pieces when this all began, which has made all of the difference. I’ve included...
Creating my moodboard this month was definitely a challenge that I put off for as long as possible. What can I say? It’s hard to be creative in quarantine. Normally, I love to start the month reflecting on my goals, aspirations, and everything that’s been inspiring me. This month, of course, it has been harder to look to the future when the future feels so uncertain. How can I include short term goals or future travel plans, when my current goals are to put on real clothes and get through the day without crying? And travel… Between cancelled trips...
London is my favourite city in the world, and one that I’ve been lucky to visit countless times in my life. Having gone often with my parents growing up, and then later doing school exchanges there as I got older, returning to London always feels a little bit like coming home. That being said, London is the city I always find changes the most in between visits. There is always a new restaurant, a cool pop-up, a lush floral installation, and a different trendy area! Each visit results in an inevitable reeducation to this amazing city and what to...
