when boredom strikes
This is what happens when boredom strikes, I raid through my closet in pursuit of putting various pieces together. (sad right?) Anyways, to my surprise, I managed to find several pieces and glammed them up with several accessories such as a pleated necklace, a brown belt, a chanel-inspired chain purse and some rose gold wrist wear. My goal for this year is to wear more prints, so why not incorporate my wild side into some of my pieces. TADA!
Christine's style is so mean!

Fun, Flirty, and Floral
Last week I took a ten day trip to Los Cabos where we experienced paradise while the majority of Canadians complained about the snowy weather back home. What excited me the most about this trip was the fact that I got to whip out my summer clothes. I managed to take a photo of one of my outfits below. This outfit became a personal favorite because of how effortlessly chic it was and also that you don't need to wear things according to brands. Remember: "FASHION is what you buy, STYLE is what you do with it."
Peplum from the past
For those who are intigued by the peplum trend, this style was not invented yesterday for it has been around for a number of years. When I say "a number of years," I mean going all the way back to 1947 where the first peplum blazer was introduced by none other than Christian Dior. It was known as the " tailleur bar" and it revolutionized women's fashion from there and onward. The peplum trend is known for its feminine features such as the clinching in at the waist and hips plus it can be worn with skinny jeans, tailored pants and a pencil skirt.

Here's my take on the peplum trend with a red blazer by Betsey Johnson. What makes Betsey Johnson so unique is that her pieces are FUN and she is a prime example when it comes to not taking fashion so seriously.
