I am officially in love with bow ties! I have been wanting to branch out and try styling a bow tie for a while now and I am so glad I finally did. 

I decided to counter balance the masculinity of a bow tie by wearing all white and going for a feminine skirt. I got this skirt a couple of weeks ago using EBates. Have you heard of Ebates?! I can't believe it took me this long to get on the Ebates bandwagon. 

Essentially, if you shop online just do so by going through the Ebates website first (get re-directed to the store you want to shop at) and when you make your purchase you get cash back!! I've earned $20 in cash back so far. You NEED to get on this before you shop online. Head on over to EBates to get signed up.

I am so looking forward to this weekend! Tonight I'm catching up with some friends over dinner & tomorrow I'm out to celebrate St. Patrick's Day. I also want to make a point of getting out and going for a run down by the beach if our weather is nice. Enjoy your weekend everyone!

Leopard Print for Spring

Blazer: Ever New. Very Similar: here.
Similar: here and here

Blouse: Similar: here and here

Pants: H&M
Bag: Michael Kors
Shoes: Old. Similar: here  
Lipstick: NARS "Anita" (by far my favourite lipstick ever)
Nail Polish: Essie "Ballet Slippers" (a great colour for work)

Without fail, leopard print is a trend every fall. Then, it mysteriously disappears from everyone's wardrobe for the next 6 months. This makes no sense to me. Leopard can still be perfect for spring if you pair it with lighter colours- creams, tans, and whites. Today's work outfit hopefully gives you all some inspiration for digging that leopard print out of your closet for spring.

I hope you all had a great weekend and are ready to take on this week!! If, like me, you're not so much "ready" as you are "entirely ready for sleep instead" try out this ridiculously amazing coffee from my post here. That is definitely what I am going to be doing this morning!! haha.

Linking up today for "Mix it Monday's" here
