Style Peek: blush sweater + white tunic+ charcoal leggings


Remember me? I'm back from a lovely blogging break...I've been missing being part of the community - even though I still read all your blogs daily! I think I just hit a little bit of the blahs and also took full advantage of the holidays! They were quite nice, how about yours? In order to accommodate the lazy days and big meals, I took on a sewing project and made this a-line white cotton tunic...to wear with leggings and oversized sweaters. Soooooo comfy! It's not a waist-cinching outfit, but sometimes you just gotta be comfy, right? I feel like a necklace always makes it more dressy - ha ha!

I picked up this blush pink sweater at Gap for under 20 bucks over the holidays - their deals have been pretty ridiculous lately. I'm kind of loving leggings too...but I made sure to make my tunic cover my bum - that's the cardinal rule ladies. Now that I'm back to work it's back to less slouchy outfits but I thought I would share my casual dressing for fun. What's your go-to comfy outfit?

wood necklace - bought years ago in Calgary
black leather flats - Aldo (shop similar)

Things have also been busy with our bathroom reno, we booked our honeymoon to the Florida Keys in May (loved it so much last time we just had to go again!) and I found out my sister is having a boy! January has showed no signs of slowing down so far!

Have an amazing day friends!

  3. I love how the sweater gives the outfit such a different feel, despite it's unassuming colour! Beautiful!
