Le Chat du Café des Artistes

 Bracelets & earrings c/o KV BIJOU, Club Monaco scarf, H&M blouse,
bag c/o Roots, blazer c/o Shoppalu, arrow bracelet c/o Poshlocket, jeans c/o Gap Canada
 I’ve been spending most of my time coffee shop surfing as of late, lugging my laptop from one coffee shop to another while stopping at meetings in between. That’s part of the problem with not living centrally – you have to be a bit of a nomad and carry most of your life around with you! As usual, my huge oxblood Roots bag has been coming in handy, but when it comes to the rest of my outfit I’ve really had to keep it as casual as possible in order to last through the whole day. Flat boots, comfy skinnies from Gap Canada and little punches of colour via some stunning KV BIJOU jewellery are the go-to’s as of late.
So the sunshine has officially dissipated and we’re left with…rain. Lots and loooots of rain. I made the boring but practical decision to invest in some Hunter boots yesterday. Sometimes, not all style buys are uplifting!
Hope you all had an amazing (and slightly drier) weekend!
Oh and the title…the coffee shop mention gave me the excuse to finally title a post after my favourite Charlotte Gainsbourg song ever – check it out!

    I love this blazer, it's perfect with the denim. And that blouse is so pretty, looks great with the colour of the scarf.
    Sometimes buying things because you really need them doesn't feel nearly as good as buying something because you really want it

    But you live in West Van, so no complaining :p Love all the jewelry and I think Hunters can be cute (I adore mine so maybe I am biased).

    Victoria is incredibly sunny today. Like hot and beautiful sunny. Although everything is still soaked from the weekend. I hope you get some of our sunshine.

    Also love the colour pairings in this outfit.

    Such a pretty casual look, pally – I remember thinking what great buy that blazer was at the time and seriously, it just keeps getting better. The pairing with maroon is just gorgeous, and the pop of turquoise. So lovely and perfect for fall!
