Elegant British Brands by Jacques Vert Group Winter 14 Preview

A few weeks ago I was invited to the Elegant British Brands by Jacques Vert Group Winter 14 Preview by the Hudson Bay team! I was super excited to find out that one of the brands they had was Plus Size!

I’d like to introduce you to Windsmoor, a super elegant and beautiful plus size brand under Jacques Vert Group! They showed us a few pieces of their upcoming Winter collection, I fell in love instantly. The pieces are so well structured, made with the best material and are super warm - which is so important when you have to face the harsh realities of Canadian winter! I especially loved the fur coat from Jacques Vert (it was a one size fit all and it fit amazingly) and the beautiful ombre Windsmoor coat, they were both incredibly gorgeous!

The Hudson Bay currently carries Windsmoor (I hadn’t known since it’s actually not currently in the plus size section, it’s in the same area as all the Jacques Vert brands) as well as the other amazing lines; Precis(petite), Minuet(petite), Kaliko, Jacques Vert, Planet, Eastex and Dash!

I cannot wait for this collection to come out in November!! I might just have to treat myself to the ~*gorgeous fur coat*~.

GabiFresh x Swimsuits for All Nala Midkini

A couple weeks ago I went to Sibbald Point with my family for a nice day of BBQ and my fave thing ever ~*~*~*SWIMMING~*~*!!!

We had a super nice day at the beach with all my baby cousins! We went swimming for hours - I was literally in the water for 6 hours. The water was so warm and surprisingly super clean! We then made some insanely delicious bbq and ~smores~!!! It was pretty much the perfect day at the beach!
I was seriously stoked not only because I could ACTUALLY swim (Toronto’s beach is hella dirty and there’s pretty much no way you’d ever catch me in that water), but because I could finalllllllly wear my GabiFresh x Swimsuits for All Nala Midkini!!!! Although it was seriously a huge pain to get, i.e. order got cancelled, which led to all sorts of hell (they charged my credit card and then told me that it was cancelled due to fraudulent activity… ummm what???). Including the fact that to exchange the top part of the bikini I was told I needed to reorder it and ship mine back to then get a refund on what I purchased again… Which wasn’t fair at all seeing as I had gotten it with discount and would have had to pay full price just for one top! Thankfully after this whole dilemma Swimsuits for All was nice enough to honour my order and sent me the correct sized top without a huge amount of hassle.

I’m in love with this swimsuit and although it was a huge pain to finally get it, I was so so happy once I did! This is by far my favourite swimsuit I own, it just fits so perfectly! Gabi who not only is the amazing designer behind this wonderful suit but, my blogger idol!! She’s the whole reason I got into fashion and created my blog in the first place. My love and admiration for her is unreal, and best of all, I finally got the chance to meet her this past Monday while I was at NYFW!!!
