Outfit post

It's almost spring time and I can't believe it's snowing here in Vancouver! It only started to melt away today, and apparently it'll be back again next week... Honestly, I haven't been wanting to dress up, and just snuggled up refusing to get out of bed the last week too. 

Today, Mr. Sun decided to show up, so I thought I'd put together a few outfits together for you!


__________

Outfit #1

I love my leather jacket, I'll seriously put it on with anything that allows me to wear it with haha. 
This was just a casual outfit I put together for a simple dinner + movie date. I always love wearing long socks with any skirts above the knee. It kind of gives this more innocent feel, plus is much more Vancouver weather appropriate as well.

Jacket: H&M
White top: Top Shop
Leather skirt: Zara
Heels: Guess

Outfit #2

This outfit is a little bit more dressy, and probably isn't suitable for an every day look, unless you really like to stand out from the crowd, then why not! I'm not stopping you~
I actually put this look together for a photoshoot I'll be styling tomorrow, stay tuned for the official pictures. Hopefully I'll receive them in 2-3 days.

My top is actually a vintage corset I got at a thrift store in downtown Vancouver called Used. I don't usually go thrift shopping, but I just couldn't resist when I saw how beautiful it was and for such a low price too!
The skirt was purchased from Taiwan, I honestly don't even remember what brand it was. There are just so many random brands there I can't even keep track.
Usually with an outfit that's really out there, I like to accessorize lightly, a watch, maybe a bracelet and a light necklace to fill in all the spots, but not too much so it takes the attention away from the outfit.

Outfit #3

Who says you can't be fashionable with a plain white tee. I honestly love wearing them because they're so comfortable yet it's like a blank canvas that you can use to style with anything without having to worry about over-accessorizing. 

Plaid top: TNA
White tee: Club Monaco
Black skinny jeans: Levis
Scarf: Off brand




Excuse my super messy room.. and also my dog who loves to be in most of my shots. She just loves following me everywhere haha.

Thank you for reading, and have a happy sunny weekend!

Outfit post + Dinner at Cin Cin

Happy Family Day everyone!

I hope you all had a nice day off whether it was by yourself, with your family or with your loved ones. I celebrated with my boyfriend at a really nice restaurant on Robson in downtown Vancouver called Cin Cin. There was always good comments and good feedback on the place, but I never got the opportunity to go there until today. The service and food was definitely as good as what I had heard about previously. It's a place I would definitely go back to and recommend for you guys as well. Here are a few pictures of what we had for appetizers as well as our two entrees. Enjoy~

Alright so asides from all the good food, of course I had to dress up for it as well. Honestly, I had forgotten that we were going to such a fancy restaurant, and just totally dressed casually until later in the evening when we were heading to Cin Cin that I realized I was probably a little underdressed. But not to worry, the place is surprisingly quite casual despite the fancy name. 

Here is what I wore:

Leather Jacket: H&M
Off shoulder oversized tee: Zara
Leather/cotton pants: Alice + Olivia

For makeup, there's honestly nothing that I love more than a bold liner and red lips. It suits any occasion, such a simple look but so feminine, and accentuates the best features on your face, the eyes and lips. 
Do you also notice my skin looks super flawless and airbrushed too? (Didn't use any photoshop by the way). I'm using Shu Uemura's new lightbulb foundation, which my review will be up soon! 
So stay tuned~

Here is what I had on my face:

Brows: Anastasia brow wiz and brow gel both in Brunette
Face: Shu Uemura lightbulb foundation + Illamasqua foundation powder
Eyes: Nars black eyeliner + Cle De Peau volumizing mascara
Lips: Stila liquid lipstick in beso
Cheeks: Nars laguna bronzer + Nars blush in orgasm



I hope you enjoyed this simple night out look! Comment if you have questions~
Have a good rest of the week! Thank you for reading
