Dopamine Dressing
Tumblr media
I have been in the biggest rut the last couple months. I mean jeez Louise, I really have.  Creativity, gone.  Motivation, where is she? And confidence, out until further notice.  But NO MORE! I am taking it all back. As I battle with the ever ups and downs of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder and the aforementioned lack of overall pep in my step, I can always find solace and insight in my closet and the fashion universe.  I have been apprehensive to admit this escape in something that people may deem as superficial, silly or vain.  But, enough.  In truth does it matter what brings someone else joy? With the exception of psychopaths, serial killers, and the assholes of the world, for obvious reasons. Immersing into style fills me with inspiration, and I never want to deny it.  
All art inspires me, and style is art. Not only is it subjective, in the eye of the beholder and all that, but it can also make you brave, curious and encouraged. Let’s paint a picture. Have you ever been out at the grocery store, pharmacy, Walmart, Costco wherever –and ran into someone you know? The awkwardness is then amplified because the whole time you are thinking, Why am I wearing no bra, this stained t-shirt and 10 year old leggings? Have I even brushed my hair today, or Why didn’t I cover that white head?  Don’t lie, we have all been there, in that uncomfortable moment.  And that’s ok, you don’t need to be a pageant contestant while running errands. It can be as simple as putting on your favorite lip gloss, a scarf, a necklace, a tailored jacket over your hoodie or simply a great fitting pair of jeans instead of sweatpants. Never leave the house without a bit of armour, that's all.  
In the opposition of the last rhetoric, have you ever put on an outfit and felt like the world is yours? Yes, I hear you, that’s when you see no one. If a tree falls in the woods, yadda yadda.  The answer is yes. It does make a sound, just as this does make a difference.  Who cares about who you run into, the point is that you feel GOOD in your skin. You are ready for anything and anyone because you feel fearless.  And just as I said above, it doesn’t have to be an entire look from head to toe but simply making a thoughtful effort. Maybe it’s that special sweater or tee you have had forever, that makes you feel safe and comfortable yet cute no matter what. Or the handbag that you saved up for and whenever you carry it, it is a badge of honor that makes you feel strong and confident. Anything that makes you feel proud, optimistic and joyous.  This does not make you materialistic.  These things just showcase on the outside how you feel on the inside.  They can mimic and enhance what comes from within. And sometimes, when you are feeling down, they can turn your mood around. One of my favorites is rocking something that I found for a steal of a price.  Whether it was secondhand or in a discount bin, there is something special about finding a gem for the price of a pebble. I like to polish it up and give it life.  
In the essence of this new ideal, I have given myself a challenge, for the foreseeable future, to get dressed everyday.  Now, don’t worry. This does not mean otherwise I’m naked. What I mean by this, is to dress with intention everyday.  It can still be a tee shirt and jeans, but add an accessory to round it out. No more, frumpy, body hiding, sad clothes. The ones that let me melt into the couch, or wallow in my bad days.  With the exception of a loungy Sunday, or a hangover day because, well, we all need those from time to time. This also doesn’t mean you have to be red carpet ready, face full of contour, fresh blow out, and new manicure at all times – and if it does, you go girl.  It just means, give yourself the love and attention you probably give your family, your job, your hobbies, and basically everything else in your life.  It can still be leggings and a hoodie – add a hat or jean jacket and that’s a look honey.  And as we all know, style is personal. It is what makes YOU feel confident, sexy, courageous, so parade your point of view.  
I like to think of it as an extension of the make-your-bed-every-morning sentiment.  It is wild how such a thing creates a sense of organization, purpose and motivation for the day. I started doing that years back, and it was a game changer.  You might read that and be like who the f*** doesn’t make their bed?  Welp, I didn’t for a long time, and I’m fairly certain it’s not that uncommon. I hope, or maybe I was just a lazy b –no shame. I intend to widen this thought to my wardrobe.  No more throwing something on because it’s just Tuesday afternoon at Safeway, and only thinking about polishing myself up for the weekend, or special events.  It’s wild how such a simple thing can make you feel hopeful, motivated and fierce.  The more we celebrate the exquisitely normal, everyday, humdrum moments, the more we live. I am surprised at how that translates into an overall mindset. If someone thinks that makes us frivolous or superficial - F them - they’re probably just jealous. xx

Happiest Weekend 💞 Been a heck of a week here for sure! How you doing? Lots of questions about @shein_ca and this dress after my story earlier this week and happy to share my thoughts! First time ordering from @sheinofficial and I was a little skeptical I have to say. I ordered 15 pieces which totalled 10 outfits plus 2 pairs of shoes. Placed my order July 27th and it arrived August 3rd which was awesome! (But be prepared for a Customs & Duty invoice on top of your order.) For those of you who are wondering ~ size wise I didn’t order anything too fitted first time out because I wasn’t sure if they fit true to size or not. As I am on the petite side ~ I ordered mostly small but also medium where bust size came into play. Thrilled to say all my items fit beautifully. Obviously these are not long life staple wardrobe pieces but fun and stylish! If they last me a season or two, thrilled with the fit and quality for such a reasonable price point. Highly recommend giving them a go for a few fun and trendy but inexpensively priced summer pieces! Curious if you have ordered from Shein and what your experience was? Wishing you the most amazing weekend vibes and all the XO’s your way 💞 • • #SKU swdress07200729704 Price $29 CAD currently • • • #shein #sheinhaul #sheinca #sheinofficial #sheindress #sheingirls #affordablefashion #summervibes #summerstyle #sundressseason #fashionover50 #styleover50 #instabeauty #instablogger #bbloggersca #yycbloggers #yycstyle #yycfashion #fitnessover50 #beautyover50 #weekendvibes #yycliving #tgif #happyweekend #livelifetothefullest (at Calgary, Alberta) https://www.instagram.com/p/CSQfjaxr3an/?utm_medium=tumblr

CLOSE UP This navy coat has a softer shoulder and more Italian-styled sleeve head. However, I would not go so far to call this a neopoliton shoulder, as it doesn't have the little bits of puckering at the top of the sleeve. My personal preference for shoulder and sleeve head remains in the English tradition with a roped shoulder, although mine is not usually as exaggerated as some. Recently I've had multiple client's ask for a softer shoulder and Italian styled sleeve head. I'm wondering if it's because it is more familiar as it is what dominates the ready-to-wear market. I'm curious to know what you all prefer? What are your thoughts? . . . #bespoke #tailor #tailoring #yycfashion #yycatelier #bespoketailor #yycbusiness #albertamade #sleeve #italian #english #menswear #suit #suited #coat #navy #wool #shoulder #style #yycsmallbusiness #yyc #calgary #yycmade #yycentrepreneur #yycfashion #yycdesign (at Calgary, Alberta) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpLAaxCLgJZ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The Canadian Tuxedo
Tumblr media
I have been living in Canada for a couple years shy of a decade now, and it’s about time to accept this fashion marvel. The infamous Canadian Tuxedo. Rumor has it that the popular term was born in 1951 when Bing Crosby was denied entry to a hotel in British Columbia because he was wearing denim bottoms with a denim top. What was then thought to be a faux pas that even celebrities couldn’t get away with. It went down in history and here we are. One still may be refused entry to a posh hotel in said tux but it has evolved over the years. Anyone remember Britney and JT’s red carpet moment?
Tumblr media
The full denim jumper and catsuit has come back ( I have my eye on one by Stella Mccartney). Models like Bella Hadid and Kendall Jenner have been seen out and about in full denim glory. Overalls have also had a resurgence over the years.  Another look I love, but that is for another day. The love affair with denim has evolved, recycled and is here to stay.  Done right the denim on denim look is chic, casual and effortless.  I actually put it into a subset of the  monochromatic category.
 I prefer going with light wash, but pick your poison. It’s all in the eye of the beholder. It may be a neutral but there is a whole denim scale to choose from. However, my tip for a more cohesive and thought out look, make sure  that both the top and bottom are the same shade.  
Double Down on Denim Baby!

My commitment to #notbuyingnew has lead to not owning a lot of shoes. This is largely due to planter fasciitis making buying shoes difficult. But I do sometimes have luck with #thrifting shoes from time to time! . . . All three of these pairs of shoes were #secondhand Grey Converse and black Rockport Mary Janes from @valuevillage_thrift , Coral Fly London Sandals are over 15 years old, from when I worked at @trendcalgary The rest of the outfit were also #valuevillagefinds, except the #vintage earrings - they were my grandmother's 🥰 . . . When shopping for shoes, it's important to make sure the soles and insoles are in good condition, and sanitize them using alcohol spray, tea tree oil or even hand sanitizer. . . . Which shoes would you wear with this outfit? I'm leaning towards the #converse myself. I'm sick today, so I tried my hand at flat laying - how did I do? Not bad for a first attempt? . . . #thriftstorefind #thriftscore #thriftstorefind #thriftstorescore #thriftyaf #thriftfinds #yycthrift #yycfashion #calgarythrift #calgaryfashion #nothingnew #thrifted #thriftedandstyled #preloved #prelovedfashion #queensofpreloved #sustainablefashion #sustainableclothing https://www.instagram.com/p/B6HJ15bp2zo/?igshid=17f1k5ua4958t
