New Summer Staple

I am in love with this dress. Love the color, cut, quality, price, and so comfy - my first maxi dress. This is my new staple for this summer and I love the details of it.
I wore it for Casual Friday at work - the top detail showed alot of skin so to keep it conservative, I paired it with a black top underneath.

Dress: Forever 21
Eaarings, Bangle Bracelet, Watch: Ardene's
Flats: Payless
Black top: Suzy Shier
Jean Jacket: Thrifted







A close-up of the details and the bow on my flats!



Are you Loving Maxi Dresses this season??

Have a great long weekend! :)
P.S. I am heading to the lake on Sunday on a double date. I will report photo coverage later next week! :)

Dress to Impress


I chose to not wear the typical Black suit and white buttonup for my interview on thursday this week. Instead, I decided to wear Blue button up with a black fitted blazer and my fav. grey skirt and black tights with some black heels. I wasnt sure about wearing a chunky neclace but felt like taking a risk  so went ahead with that and pearl studs.


Blue Button-up: H&M
Grey Skirt: Fairweather
Tights Suzy Shier
Blazer: Urban behavior
Studs and Necklace: Forever 21
Heels: ALDO









What is your fav. Interview outfit?

Ryan and his awesome outfit!


Ryan is learning Punjabi (my native language) so here he was impressing me with how much he is been learning and I was shocked! He can now make sentences and makes me so very proud and I cant wait to marry him in nine months!!  :)

Picture-taking Tale


Hello lovelies! and A BIG WELCOME to all the new followers! I am so happy that I could bake right now. and just so you know I hate baking. So thats how much I love you all following on my journey. Do I make any sense?


Top: Suzy Sheir
Pants: GAP
Golden kitten heels: Payless
Millitary inspired cropped jacket: Urban Behavior
Personality: Mine
Ring: Ardene's, Earrings: Forever 21



Totally took pictures in the parking lot today and got Looks. it was awkward. everytime someone would go by, we would pretend like we are not taking pictures. Well, a lady came by to say to me, "you are lucky that he's taking your pictures. My husband hates cameras and wont even take pictures!"

I wanted to tell her that well sometimes, when he is not available, I take my own pictures with you know set the camera and run and hopefully 1 or 2 pics would come out nice. You should try that :) But I didn't. It might have made things more awkward.
 I told Ryan to not listen to her in case he was getting any ideas on what's normal (A.K.A. not take any more outfit pictures for Nav)

Here is a good-bye squinty-smile - bec the sun is in my face. But I am not complaining, I like sunshine :)

Peace guys! Hope you are having a great day. Thanks for stopping by!

Thrifted Weekend Outfit and Other Nuggets

Top: Thrifted from Goodwill
Necklace: Thrifted
Floral Flats: Ardene's
Cardigan: Ricki's
Capris: Garage
Ring: Ardene
Bag: ALDO



     Edmonton is the new WINDY CITY. It has been windy - 50 Km/Hr type of winds the entire week!

This pants have a sentinmental value for me. I bought them from Garage 5 years ago and they were $10! Yeah but I bought it with a friend who is my bestie now! I love you Megha and we call them "our" pants. It brings warm memories of her and I hanging out in the city (now shes moved away - lives 6 hours away) whenever I wear this pants and they are perfect Classic Cargo summer capris (they never go out of style).



I am in love with this thrifted top and my recent $1 thirfted necklace from Goodwill.

My ring from Ardene's - so beautiful :)



What else I did this weekend:



Since its been stressful at home lately - it will be until I get married I supposse  - I visited Bath and Body works on friday and i wanted to try these 2 aromatherapy scents. One is Lavendar Spearmint - Anti-Stress and the other is Orange Ginger - Energy.

I love how they smell and help me unwind :) They are def my NEW LOVE!




I bought this nude-pink bag last fall from ALDO. and Its my new staple this spring. I love the color of it, and it holds everything I need in a day - Book, lunch, water bottle, spare flats, keys and some other junk. haha





And my fav perfume! I got it as a Christmas gift from my mom-to-be last year. Christian Dior - I wear this only on special occassion but I felt like treating myself this weekend so wore it. Love the light smell of it :)

So that was my weekend summed up with pictures! Hope you enjoyed. Thanks for stopping by and I am excited to start a brand new week tomo!! :)

How was your weekend??

Love is such a self-less feeling


Mr. F. asked me what Love is to me - Thats the best way I can describe love. Its a self-less feeling.



Blue Sweater: Ricki's
Jeans: Forever 21
Flats: Payless
Necklace: Payless
Belt: Thrifted
Watch: Gift


Lately, I have bought 5 things (clutch, maxi dress, 2 necklaces, fedora) so according to my recent rule: I had to get rid of 5 things in my closet: so got 3 clothing pieces, 2 pairs of heels and donated them to value village tonight.






On a total random chance, I was leaving work to go on my lunch break yesterday and guess who I run into!? Janis from Dress me Dearly - my first face to face intro to an Edmonton style blogger. Its funny I felt so comfortable talking to her like we have met before, but ofcourse we havent! So here is a shoutout to Janis! :)

Today I wore blue on blue - with hints of white. Do you like?

Have an AWESOME  weekend everyone. We have beautiful sunny weather in Edmonton!!
