Gotta love that flare

Happy Friday readers! As you may have gathered from this week's Wednesday Wants, I have been loving the trend toward the 90s lately. As such, for today's post I wanted to undertake the challenge of mixing 90s fashion with a more contemporary 'after work' vibe. 

I love the idea of pairing a button-down shirt that is knotted in the front, with a pair of flared jeans. It creates a universally flattering silhouette. I decided to go with rose gold jewelry (readers, you know my love for rose gold); including my new favorite statement ring.

I hope you all have a great weekend ahead. I will be spending my weekend buried under paper work, but am really excited about taking an acro yoga class tonight and having a relaxing dinner with friends on Saturday night. Gotta love those mini breaks between the chaos! I hope to see you all back here on Monday!

I am all about capes right now. The weather in Vancouver is chilly; but not 'need-my-east-coast-winter-parka' kind of chilly, so I find myself reaching for capes quite often. I also love these Silver Jeans. They are my first ever pair from this brand, and I love the high waisted fit! After a long day in Court yesterday, I am very glad to be having a casual friday.

A couple of things to tell you all on this lovely Friday:

1) These photos were taken by the ah-mazing Allyson - a local BC photographer. She is a true beauty (inside & out) and such a local talent! Check her out if you need photos done! Her website again is here.

2) Today's giveaway is a pair (of your choosing) of Silver Jeans!!! The ones I am styling in today's pics are the Suki Skinny jeans. They are a curvy fit (and I love that!) and they run true to size (I'm a 28). Below are some of the other fits I like:

Aiko flares | Aiko skinny | Aiko distressed skinny | Suki Joga

Today's featured blogger is Jena from Spoonful of Faith. Good luck to everyone entering the giveaway!! Have a great weekend and I will see you back here tomorrow for our FINAL giveaway. It's the biggest/best yet- trust me, you don't want to miss it!

I was talking to my best friend who lives in Australia and she was telling me about how her office does "casual Monday" instead of casual Friday. The reasoning,as she says, is because on Fridays you want to look sharp for after work drinks! I though that was pretty cool, so today i am embracing 'casual Monday'!

This may be the first time you've seen me in jeans on LLB! This is not because I don't like jeans, but because I haven't found ones that are both flattering and comfortable. Enter these relaxed skinny jeans from Dynamite. I am in love! 
A pair of well-fit, comfortable jeans are an essential in every young professional's "off-duty" wardrobe. If you are still hunting for your perfect pair, definitely give these ones a try!  

Tonight I am off to the pumpkin patch with my best friend and two little goddaughters. I can't wait! Be sure to follow me on instagram for pics!
