TGIF!  Happy Friday, girls!  How has your week been?

This week has been a really good one, and I’l share more below, but first let’s talk this look.

I snagged this skirt when we went to Tampa in November and have been wearing it quite a bit.  I wasn’t sure if I would get a ton of use out of a white faux leather skirt but I have.  I wore it with tights and turtlenecks in the winter and am now rocking it with off the shoulder tops, silky camis and tees for summer.  So versatile!  I’m totally eyeing this one–it’s so good!

O U T F I T  D E T A I L S  :  F21 OFF SHOULDER TOP — OLD (SIMILAR, SIMILAR, SIMILAR)  |  TOPSHOP SKIRT (LOVE THIS, SIMILAR, SIMILAR NON-LEATHER)  |  ZARA HEELS (SIMILAR)  |  BAG (SIMILAR, BUDGET FRIENDLY)

This top is pretty cropped to begin with (as seen here in Mexico) which is why I’m a big fan of this one, but the beauty with a higher waister skirt is it will often help you pull double duty on tops that are cropped, without wearing it as so.  Also, when the skirt hits at the smallest part of your waist, it can create a very flattering silhouette–making this a great look for a date night or a special event with friends.

This week has been fun–I had a couple nights on my own while Marco was away, and took the time to make some vegetarian meals, hit the gym and veg.  Yesterday, my 91 year old Poppa was honoured at a naming of a square here in Ottawa, I shared some photos on my personal FB page (but made them public), which was so special.  He gave a speech and was definitely in his element.  A wonderful day to be a part of.  On top of that, we had ramen last night which just makes any day better, so there’s that.

Lastly, I started editing alllllll the photos I have of trying on wedding dresses–there is a lot, it’s going to be a bit of a photo overload, not going to lie!  I was hoping to get that up yesterday, but it didn’t pan out as it’s taking me a little longer than anticipated to write the post and edit all the photos.  Plus, I didn’t want to share two back-to-back wedding posts (yesterday I shared what our colours will be + my mood board).  All that said, the post will be up on Tuesday for you girls, so check back if you’d like to see.  I’ve also told Marco it’s happening and he knows not to come read 😛

Hope you have an amazing weekend–we are off to host a BBQ for Marco’s softball tonight before their tournament kicks off.  See you Monday!
