How is it August already? I feel like summer just began, yet at the same time am feeling like it’s almost over. Summer in Canada really is far too short, and despite the cooler weather yesterday, I find myself making sure I dress for summer as  much as possible.

I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but I don’t often wear much colour. I generally feel most comfortable in blacks, whites and greys, and I think my hair makes up for the lack of colour in my wardrobe. But sometimes a pop of colour and/or print is necessary to keep the summer vibes alive when our summer days are feeling a bit lackluster. Cue: my newest trouser from TallGirls UK! Not only are they bright and sharp, but they’re also ridiculously comfortable. Paired with a crop top and my leather vest, it makes the perfect outfit for an cool summer evening out.

One quick word of advice if you shop at TallGirls: follow their size chart! I though I would wear a UK8, but according to the size chart I’m more suited to the UK10.
