to make the most of the last few days of summer, i spent some time at Vancouver’s Spanish Banks with books, sunscreen, and a very retro looking beach mat ♥

So back in August I was invited to participate in this new campaign for Woolmark called “Fashion by Feelings”. Many of you lovelies might already know about this, so I won’t talk your ears off. For those who don’t already know about this fun lookbook campaign, I would like to share it with you and give you a little bit of background.
In short, Woolmark started the “Find Fashion by Feelings” campaign to encourage us to wear wool and appreciate its great versatility. They are inviting users to post their favorite wool looks into one of 12 “Feelings” categories. Users are then encouraged to vote for the outfits they love the most. Person with the most ‘loved’ look will win a AUD $12,000 holiday & wool experience. If you decide not to upload a look, you can still participate simply by voting. All voters are entered into a weekly draw to win an Emu Australia wool prize pack worth AUD $400.
The competition ends late this month so there’s still time to participate. If this sounds fun to you, definitely enter and check out some really awesome wool looks around the world! While you’re at it, please check out my wool look and cast a vote my way ♥

Have a nice weekend ♥
Hello loves! So just when I thought fall is right around the corner, the temperature goes up to the highest this summer. I honestly cannot wait to wear long sweaters again (if you follow me on twitter you know it’s because I have been buying TOO many), but instead of sulking, I’m going to throw open my windows and wear those pretty, airy pieces while I still can! I feel that I might be a bit late in the game wearing pleated chiffon skirts, but it could actually be a great transitional piece from summer to fall. Add a light jacket or sweater, that’d be appropriate for the cooler temperature, no?
