Building Your Wardrobe & Getting The Most Out Of Your Cash

Odds are, if you're reading this blog post, you enjoy fashion and your wardrobe is important to you. Don't worry, we're totally in this together. I can proudly say I'm now into my 30's and expecting a baby (very soon), so let's just say, my priorities have not only shifted when it comes to my wardrobe but my buying patterns have changed dramatically. I guess you could say I've matured. :) I'm now shopping way less and focusing on pieces that will bring me true happiness, ones that I truly need.  In my twenties, I spent a crazy amount of cash on the latest trends and pieces that weren't exactly strategic.

Styling Tips For That 'In Between' Weather

I'm going to start this blog post with a confession. I'm totally an unrealistic Canadian when it comes to weather.
