Last summer I really wanted to get my hands on a linen jumpsuit for our trip to Europe. I was looking for something that was light and breezy for walking all over town, but also something I could throw on a pair of heels with and look put together for dinner. After some browsing online, I stumbled across this short sleeve linen jumpsuit from Offon. I loved the shop’s slow and ethical approach, the family handmakes every piece and customizes it based on your measurements! Sure, it’s a little bit of a splurge, but I knew this piece would last me years and years. Since it’s a kimono style, I swear I could wear this through every stage of my life, even during pregnancy (not happening for awhile!) but really shows how this piece will transition with me throughout years.
I picked the ivory color, and although it’s a tiny bit see through, I have absolutely no problem with nude undergarments (I typically just throw on a pair of spanx). The whole experience with the shop was simple and easy, the communication was fantastic (instructions on how to send in measurements, etc.), and I ended up getting the piece sooner than I anticipated, their turnaround time is amazing for custom made pieces. Couldn’t recommend them more!
Last winter when Aritzia launched their denim line, I quickly made my way in store to see what they had to offer. Aritzia is one of those stores where I know their pants will just fit me - no altering needed, which can be tough since I’m pretty petite. So the weekend they launched, I picked a few pairs up and headed straight to the fitting room. Browsing online, I had a feeling the Yoko Slim line was going to be for me, high waisted, slim jeans, what’s not to love? I tried them on and completely fell in love with the fit and wash (Med Stone Creek). I’ve been wearing them weekly since!
I was browsing Aritzia’s site again a few weeks back and noticed they brought out a white shade in the same style. I put them in my basket - sadly they were on back order for like 4weeks - but I was so excited to see them on my doorstop last week! I ran in and tried them on, only to find they were a bit see-through. Such a bummer because the fit was great. I took them back to Aritzia and saw the Tequila A Go-Go shade on display, a bleached denim in the same style. I decided to give them a whirl along with the Easy Pants, a cropped high waisted trouser I had been eyeing online. They both fit like an absolute dream, so to the register they went. Aritzia’s sizing is pretty true to size. I’m a 24 in their denim and 00 in pants, which is pretty accurate for me. I’m super happy with both of my purchases, especially since pants can be notoriously tough to find!

The Nordstrom Anniversary Event is here, and they’ve got some gems on sale! Such a great time to pick up basics and new items for fall. I completely fell in love with this gray Theory blazer, so tempted to pull the trigger even though I just picked my Topshop one .. Theory why do you do this to me! I also found my favorite bra and this robe/jacket I gifted my mom for her birthday hidden in the sale too. Sharing a few of my favorite fashion and beauty picks below!

It’s eighty five degrees, I’m two florins in, and summer is at it’s peak. Spent the weekend doing a little shopping, running errands and catching up with friends over drinks, hello summer! I picked up this Philosophy Apparel tank dress last weekend and have already worn it twice, that’s when you know it’s a good one. I got it on such a score at Nordstrom Rack, under $20! I’ve worn it to work paired with a cardigan and heels, and out for drinks paired with slides for a chill weekend happy hour. So versatile and the color is gorgeous, love it. Hope you all had an amazing weekend!
