Club Monaco blazer & hoops, dress c/o Gap Canada, Michael Kors heels,
vintage bag, turquoise bracelet c/o KV BIJOU, vintage belt
This look is the polar opposite of my warm-toned, spicy colour palette earlier this week: this outfit is all about neutrals, especially grey tones with touches of silver and black. I got a beautiful little care package from the Gap-Banana Republic-Old Navy Canada family last week and have been steadily working my way through the whole thing. This maxi dress is one of my favourite pieces so far! I love how easily it transitions into a fall look thanks to its smokey grey tone.
Have been having an amazing week so far, full of great meetings and exciting new opportunities. Come tomorrow afternoon, I'll also be making the trek to my cabin for our Canadian Thanksgiving festivities - can't wait for fun times and relaxation, minus the usual requisite wine-sipping. It's day 3 of the Whole30 so far - if any of you happen to have any tummy troubles like I've suffered from for years, I'd definitely recommend giving it a try. It's still pretty early, but I feel like I'm finally figuring out what my body functions off of best and what it rejects, and as most of my loved ones know, tackling this particular issue is so long overdue for me! At the very least, it's teaching me the dietary sensitivities that I might need to regulate a bit more in the future.
Happy Wednesday everyone!

I love this outfit. I'm such a fan of gray tones and I love how you paired this maxi dress with the blazer. And thank you so much for sharing about Whole30 I'm definitely going to give it a try. I have a lot of stomach issues myself and would love to get a handle on it. Have fun at your cabin. <3

I'm glad that the Whole 30 is working out so far for you - I have a few friends who just sweat by it. And I adore this outfit on you, that maxi is gorgeous and I love that you paired it with a blazer.

I would never think to put a blazer over a maxi dress, but this looks great! You look so natural and gorgeous in these pictures too.

This smoke grey dress is so beautiful on you, love the length and it is perfectly paired with the blazer. I'm glad to hear you're figuring your stomach issues out, upset tummy's are the worst ever

You know how much I love my neutrals, pally, and this look is the perfect illustration of everything I love. Black and gray are such timeless classics, and the maxi length looks just perfect on you! Missing your gorgeous face.

Love this grey-on-grey look...I really need to pull out my maxis and transition them into fall. Will definitely look into Whole30 since I keep hearing such great things about it and have suffered from IBS for over 5 years now.
