Nanette Lepore Peplum Stripe Blazer

A boardroom blazer needn't be boring. Take this Nanette Lepore stripe blazer for instance, it is form fitting, has stretchy knit, and pretty peplum detail that sits perfectly on the waist. It certainly mixes business with pleasure. What do you think?

OMG I look so tired in these pics. It was a long week. :(

Mixing Prints: Plaid + Floral

Every denim maker has released a version or two of floral jeans. With my short stature, I find wearing full on floral pants make me appear even shorter so I opted for shorts. The search for the perfect pair posed another challenge. I was not sure about paying over $150 (which seemed to be the average price) for a pair of shorts that I can only wear a few times since it rains so much in Vancouver. That was until I tried these CURRENT/ELLIOTT shorts on. They are so comfortable and well constructed. I think they are the perfect pair of shorts for dog walking or to wear while riding a retro coloured cruiser bike.
