Love it or hate it, turtlenecks have made a BIG comeback. I personally haven't bought one yet (trying to avoid buying clothes for awhile!) BUT I definitely want one. They're cozy and look great under a leather or canvas jacket.
The weather is cool, the leaves are crisp and the pumpkin spice lattes are flowing...why hello favourite fashion season! There are a few fall staples which I'm a huge fan of...ankle boots, leather jacket and the blanket scarf. I was a gifted a beautiful blanket scarf from my besties for my bday and I wear it all the time. I love how versatile they are....scarf, cape, legit blanket!
Here are a few of my favourites...
1. Beige & Black Print
2. White & Grey Stripes
3. Beige
4. Light Grey & White
5. Pinks & Grey
Happy Scarf Shopping!

Have you heard of Ethreeone? It's a blog designed to empower women in the professional world through fashion. My friend Brina started it and she has a super exciting campaign that I so want to get behind it!
Brina is going to Uganada in September to help with Watoto's, Living Hope. Living Hope is an amazing initiative that exists to restore dignity into Africa's most vulnerable women.
So before Brina leaves to Uganda she has an exciting initiative: BLAZERS 4 UGANDA. She is collecting gently used blazers to bless those women with blazers. I love it. These blazers are a small but powerful gesture to remind women in Africa that there are women in Canada who believe in them! If you are in Victoria, Brina is collecting blazers until August 26th and then she'll be heading to Calgary before she heads out. So if you're from Victoria or Calgary and have a gently used blazer to donate, email Brina at bmartens@ethreeone.com and make sure you check out her blog post all about it!
I'm so excited to donate some blazers and guess what? Brina will be snapping pics of the beautiful African women in them, so you can see which future world changer is wearing your blazer!
So excited for you Brina!!

I may have mentioned it before but have I told you how EXCITED I am that NORDSTROM IS COMING TO CANADA!! It's opening on September 18th in Vancouver and OHMAHGOSH I can't wait. Even though Vancouver is a teensy bit aways from me (you have to take a 1.5 hour ferry and then drive 45 minutes) I think I'll be over a bit more because my BFF Rachel and her hubby are moving and also my brother and sister-in-law are moving in one week!
So currently Nordstrom is hosting a HUGE anniversary sale. I've curated a few picks. And for all you fellow Canadians...they show you the CAD price AND they ship to Canada...yahooo!
Here's what's on my wish list....
1. Jeans (I got my first pair a few months back and I am now OBSESSED! They make the bootay look FAB)
2. Sweater (Seriously how cute are the little french fries!!!!)
3. Ipad Case (My Ipad case is defs dying and I have my eyes set on this one!)
4. Watch (Because we all could use another watch riiiiggghhht?)
5. Fringe Sandal (TASSSELS!)
6. Clarisonic (Ummmm how gorgeous is this Clarisonic!!)
Have you checked out the sale yet? If so, what's on your wishlist??? I'd love to know!
Happy Monday :)
