Danger – Burgundy Obsession

in Fashion, Outfit Post on 02/22/14

Wow there, crazy weather!

Yesterday was a prime example of weather that just can’t make up it’s mind. Earlier in the day, it was warm  (yes, 40 degrees is warm these days) and felt like spring. By late afternoon, we were in the midst of a blizzard. Good times that commute home, good times.

Just like the weather, I’ve been swaying between spring and winter as well.

On the one hand, I am completely craving anything and everything spring – brights, pastels, light fabrics and fun prints. I think these cravings are caused by a combination of too many trips to the mall lately and my upcoming warm weather getaway. Social media doesn’t help either. Joe Fresh’s new collection has been popping up on my Instagram AND Twitter feeds. I feel like I need this and these. Now.

On the other hand, I really do love certain cold weather pieces and colours, and have been hanging onto some of them for dear life.

Burgundy is a prime example. I just love burgundy!

I know I can wear it in the warmer months, but I don’t.

It’s during the last stretch of any season that I make sure I get the most wear out of some of my favourites. Naturally, this means my burgundy cardigan and those boots are making quite a few appearances.








OUTFIT DETAILS:
Cardigan – Aritzia // Dress – Old Navy  // Tights – Target // Belt – American Eagle
Scarf – H&M // Booties – Urban Outfitters // Bag – Roots Necklace – Brandy Melville

What winter staples are you sad to leave behind for spring?

    Your long cardigan is just perfect 🙂 I love that it was knitted with two colors, because that makes it extra versatile! I’m longing for spring too, but I still have so many of my winter outfits that I want to share on the blog. Dilemma, Dilemma! xo

These ricotta ravioli were part of the super limited @lapalmato x @jdippolito collab with @bondiproduce. I made some seared chicken breast and roasted asparagus to go with it - both from Bondi and both made next level good because of the sauces from La Palma.

It’s been 14 months and counting since my last in-person visit to a restaurant (lots of takeout), so meals like this are are special.

After so many months of waiting, we finally said goodbye to our little Toronto rental and moved to our new home in Newmarket!

2020 has without a doubt been a year we will all r 2020 has without a doubt been a year we will all remember. It’s been a big rollercoaster, but there’s no one else I’d rather ride it with than @woodley.matt 🥰

We’ve endured so.many.challenges this year...but we’ve also had some of the best and most exciting moments of our lives this year.

I still can’t believe we bought a house, got engaged AND got a puppy this year (all within a month)! 🤯

Nobody knows what 2021 will bring, but what we do know is, it will start the same way 2020 ended: at home.

I also know we will finally be finishing and moving into our new home in early 2021, and I CANNOT WAIT!! As for wedding plans...ehh, it’s a little tricky to plan these days, so we’ll cross that bridge a little later 😜 

Wishing you all a safe and happy new year at home! 🥳 (which I’m totally okay with - I’m a 👵🏻 anyways)
