Winter Wardrobe Reflection

February 25, 2018 by Marie Leave a Comment

Each autumn, as the leaves fall from the trees, I dread the start of the cold and stormy winter season. This year, instead of hibernating between the months of November through March, I made a conscious effort to get outside and to appreciate the beauty of the season. Dressing appropriately for the weather has helped make the frigid temperatures more enjoyable. There are some winter wardrobe essentials that have become part of my daily winter uniform and which have carried me through these past months….

Everlane Long Puffer Jacket | Review

February 19, 2018 by Marie Leave a Comment

We’re experiencing a “real” Canadian winter this year. It’s been bone-chillingly cold since November and the regular bouts of snow and freezing rain have us on a consistent shovelling schedule.

April 18, 2017 by Marie Leave a Comment

The weather has been getting warmer and the brave tulips in our front yard have boldly pushed their way through the still icy soil proclaiming that spring has sprung. A couple of weeks ago, on a very rainy Sunday, I started the planning process for my Spring/Summer capsule wardrobe. If you have a capsule wardrobe, I’d love to hear about your planning process.

As a first step, I like to use the transitional period between seasons to evaluate my outgoing capsule (Fall/Winter, in this case), deciding which items to donate, which to tuck away into storage for next year, and which to incorporate into my capsule for the upcoming season. This editing process helps me reflect upon what I enjoy wearing and is helping me to better define my personal style with every passing season. …
