Enjoyable piece! I’m a prairie Canadian girl with a lifelong fashion obsession. I love pulling outfits together and tend towards what appears to be simplistic French chic. I look forward to seeing future pieces bithbon clothes and home Reno’s.
Simplistic French chic is one of my faves! Happy to have you here and I hope you’ll stick around! 🙂
I just found your blog through Pinterest and I am loving it! I’ve been combing through it the past few days looking for inspiration for a new more put-together, chic wardrobe. Your blog is so refreshing from the typical fashion bloggers who just seem to buy new things all the time. I love how you’ve come up with all these different outfit combinations using what you have. Thank you! I’ve purchased a bunch of new items from thrift stores and Poshmark, because I love shopping second hand as well. I will be a recurrent reader here!
Thank you so much for this kind comment, Nancy! Have fun styling the new pieces that you got second hand 🙂 I’m so happy you’ll stick around!
Hi Carolyn. I love your blog. I also love hats. I’ve noticed that you wear hats in many of your outfits. Could you do an article on hats, how to wear them, what type of outfit goes with what type hat, or hats and facial shape. I have a lot of cloches but I think they make me look dowdy
Thanks
Thanks so much, Victoria. I’ll remember this idea!
