Wanted! Fashion That Must Be Comfortable, Casual And Eclectic!

I have never been into fashion… well not for a lot of years. In the era that I was a teenager, fashion had a whole different vibe and being ‘cool’ produced some memories to giggle over! Nowadays I couldn't tell you the first thing about haute couture...

The BEST shoes your feet will thank you for!

These shoes were made for walking! You're not going to find anything tizzy or traumatic on this list! Spend some money on your feet. They've got some miles ahead of them.

I first fell in love with Naot's when I worked in a boutique shoe store in Australia. I tried them on and fell in love. The first day I wore Naot's I forgot to take them off when I got home… they were just THAT COMFORTABLE. They are a more high end s...

I wear my Birks every. single. day. I slip my feet in them the moment I'm out of bed and they're the last thing I take off at night. If you've never owned a pair, now is the time to give them a try. If you do own a pair, bet you want another!

I recommend Josef Seibel shoes because I've owned two pair of their winter boots that were both comfortable and durable. I've worn them for years and always feel classy… although they could use some polish! I've also owned their sandals for summer an...

Wouldn't call us Australian if we didn't have Blundstones in the house. The style is popular but this brand is the real deal. My kids wear them, my in-laws wear them. These stylish boots bridge generations and seasons. They're a true investment for a...

Growing up in Australia every kid (and adult for that matter) that I knew had Ugg boots. Not the knock offs, the real thing. It was all there was! I remember buying some at a road side stall. They were a staple you could get anywhere. Oh how the UGG ...

I WANT these!! They are so darn cute and I love the buckle detail. I'm positive if I wore these out people would be asking, “Where did you get those?!”

Every wardrobe needs a pair of boots… I have several. Boots that make a statement are hard to find, which is why these ones with flowers on them are super cool!

Skirts and Pants You'll Wear Every Day

I'm sure I'm not alone. Most of us put on pants before we leave the house… I'm just fussy that mine need to be comfortable too. If it rides up the butt you won't find it on this list!

Pants, skirts, dresses that swirl! If your legs are long, such as mine are, you will LOVE Long Tall Sally. I love that their pants are always long enough and their clothing is so classically classy and good quality.  Worth every penny!

I love a pair of ‘curvy’ jeans. Somehow my shape resembles a little meatball on lanky legs these days! lol. High waisted and available in a tall length, these loose fitting jeans are just an absolute essential!

Come summer I'll be out and about in my shorts, all day and every day! But that doesn't mean I'll be flashing any butt cheek. This girl likes knee length, high waisted cargo and/or denim shorts. They dress up or down depending on the shirt you wear a...

I have loved bohemian skirts for years. They are cool, summery, flowing and SO pretty. I love the colours and how unique and eclectic I feel when I'm wearing one!

I thought all these dresses were HORRIBLE…except the blue denim look one! Just the cutest thing. I hope it's still available so you can see it too and I might be able to order it myself!

Winter Warmth In Style

Trust me, I'm an Australian who's landed with a bump in the middle of the Canadian winter. I learned a thing about keeping warm real quick!

My favourite fleece vest is a Columbia. It's brand yells value. A vest is invaluable in the changeable weather in Canada. I can throw it over a long sleeve tee or layer it with a lightweight jacket if the day turns cool. Secret fact, mine is a men's ...

I don't wear my gore tex jacket a lot but when we're heading camping it's the first thing I pack. Wind resistant and water proof it's just the ticket! My daughter just spent two weeks in London and wore my jacket every single day. Definitely a handy ...

One of my pet peeves when finding winter clothing is that the arms are long enough.  I'm a tall girl and my arms are proportionately long too! Next jacket I buy I'll be checking for a style I like on Long Tall Sally. They've proved to me their designs are sensible and their clothing is quality.

I browse second hand stores and eclectic sellers on Etsy. A scarf that resonates with your personal style and colour palette is a lifetime friend. They're inexpensive, warm, usually very unique and (depending what their weight is) can dress up an ord...

Bet you think you've found my vain spot?! NOPE! You'd be wrong. My mother took me to a department store and bought me a pair of ‘elastic pants’ after my first caesarian. Bless her wisdom. If you need any type of abdominal support don't be proud. I st...

As an Australian who grew up on the beach I know the importance of having a swimsuit that is practical and flattering. Even if you don't swim often, it's essential to have one tucked away so you don't feel embarrassed to join in the fun when it arise...

It's very Australian to have a handbag that you take EVERYWHERE… or maybe it's a woman thing the world over? There is no question that a woman NEEDS a place for all her ‘stuff’ and to be prepared for any eventuality! I'm a bit of a hand bag snob thou...

I'm a sucker for a floral and those flowing skirts that just look cool and casual but dress up so well. I'm loving this website. It seems like it has a little something for everyone!

Isn't this the last say in unique and cute. I love the green as I'm kinda into those autumn tones. I can imagine this with tights in the midst of our Canadian winter. Cosy and flattering!

Shirt dresses NEVER go out of style and the tiered look always appeals to me. It's so flattering! I can imagine this with tights in winter and even a polo sweater underneath for warmth. Love all the sizing options this website has!

This is one of the most beautiful denim dresses I have ever seen. I don't currently own a denim dress and this is definitely on the temptation list!  Check it out and be sure to comment if you buy it! Would love to hear what you think!
