The sweatshirts are so soft and such a perfect fit!

Best Jeans: Baldwin Denim
While in LA in March I had the opportunity through work to check out the Baldwin factory and showroom downtown, and check out their relaunched women's collection. Matt and his team are the best (thank you so much guys!) and it was so great getting to see a living example of "Made in America" ...
This is wonderful!

Moodboard
New month, fresh start, new ideas. Alois Lunzer, Moc Orange or Syringa, 1885 / Sam Edelman lace-up gold oxfords / Terrain garden shears / Delfonics wooden pencil / marbled notebook (no longer for sale)
Thank you! They do look great together, I find that I wear my lilac jeans and polka dot chambray way more than I thought I would!

My life is one big caesar tour!

Caesars
Caesars are "Canada's cocktail" and can be found everywhere here, but are basically unknown outside of the country. They are the perfect drink, salty and savoury. Rim a tall glass with celery salt, then add ice, 1 or 2oz of vodka, Lea & Perrins, tabasco, salt and pepper, some lime, and fill w...
I've said it before and I'll say it again- this is my absolute favourite series you have ever done. Hands down. LOVE!

Tokyo and Neon
Hello and Happy August, I am sorry I have been away for so long but I have had many changes to deal with! I had lots of travel which included Japan as you know. I also got our house ready to sell and then we sold it. I then packed and we moved. Now, I am looking for a n...
These are all so gorgeous- especially the poppy!!

Mom's Garden
Hello, Here are just a few of the pile of photographs I have recently taken in my mom's garden on Vancouver Island. She is an artist and plants are her medium these days. I picked a little bouquet to share with you too. Have a wonderful weekend. xoleslie
Thank you! I bought them either last summer or the summer before at American Eagle, and have worn them to death!! They are my favourites. I find that American Eagle comes out with a great selection of sandals every summer!

Summer nails
I love fun and bright nails in the summer. Lately I'm especially loving China Glaze polishes- these three in particular! Neons are my favourite- Orange Knockout is so bright and looks great with tanned skin, and Flip Flop Fantasy is the perfect neon pink with some orangey tones. They are both p...
Thanks Fiona! :) I know I totally agree- I am an envious of that, Japanese women seem to be like French women in the way that they just "know" what to put together to look amazing and effortless.

Tokyo style
I recently returned from an amazing and inspiring trip to Tokyo. It was my first time going and I loved it so much, especially the fashion (okay, and the food...what's not to love about sushi, rice balls, and beer?)! But I seriously could not believe how many well dressed people there are in T...
Ah I know wasn't it great? :) And I agree, it's such a surprising combination.

Movie night outfit
This is what I wore to go see Midnight in Paris the other night (which I loved)! Here's another, more subtle take on the mint + apricot combo. I just bought these shoes from Zara and I love them so much. They are so pretty, really comfortable, and were on sale- it's the best when that happens....
Great pic Leslie! LOVE it!

Summer outfit inspiration from Kristen Wiig in Bridesmaids
It's been a long time since I laughed in a movie as much as I did during Bridesmaids. Not only is Kristen Wiig a comedic genius (a long established fact) who is brilliant in this movie, but her character has an amazing wardrobe. It's rare to see a movie character wearing such stylish, current ...
Hi Kathleen, I wish I knew where to find it! I've been looking for links to the exact items that she wore but haven't had any luck- if I do find out I'll update this post and let you know!

Thanks Devin, I'm so glad you liked the post! :) I also had googled the topic and since I couldn't find exact links to the pieces decided to try to put together some similar ones!

Tomorrow I'm heading down to California and making my way to the Coachella Music Festival with my brother and one of my best friends. Kings of Leon, Arcade Fire, Mumford & Sons, Kanye, The Black Keys... and that's just the beginning. I'm so excited, I've been looking forward to this forever! P...
I agree, I think it would be extremely slimming and flattering! I definitely have a full on stripes obsession :)

Giveaway: Dress from Shabby Apple
Shabby Apple is a great online store that carries a huge variety of dresses in so many different styles and colours. I love their philosophy- they write that they want "a return to what dresses were always meant to be- a one piece outfit." I love those days when I can just put on a dress with ...

Clémence Poésy
I love the February 2011 Marie Claire editorial featuring Clémence Poésy, especially these two classic looks. She herself has great style, and she perfectly embodies the cool French girl look without coming off too sweet. Aside from outfit inspiration, this shoot also has gorgeous hair and m...
