This is what I wore to an event for Lifetime Collective yesterday: layers, layers, layers. The event was held at the stunning Vancouver Urban Winery, and a few blogette friends and I sipped on some wine while checking out the brand’s spring collections. Let’s just say I’m obsessed – I’m absolutely loving the label’s modern take on classics with a West Coast vibe. And what’s more, they originally hail from Vancouver – definitely worth checking out!
Anyway, I needed to be as comfortable as possible because the most toned late-’50s-something woman in the world completely kicked my tuckus in a step and resistance training class the night before. I may be pretty strong usually when it comes to weight training but this class really did me in – I literally had to take a break from typing, my shoulders were so sore! So there’s your lesson for the day: never think you’re stronger or more spry simply based on your age. An almost 60-something woman with a love for ’80s step class classics may just run your ass into the ground.
I love this outfit! I love all the layers and the colors! I've been layering a lot more because the weather here in Georgia has been a little crazy!
The coat is amazing and I love the layering! You look lovely! xo, Christina

I adore your coat and scarf – I especially love the fact that you let a bit of red peak out, which instantly adds a pop of color! I love how you layered this look. It looks so cosy!
There's a new post up on my blog right now and I'd love to hear your thoughts on it so feel free to stop by anytime! 🙂 x

This post seriously made me laugh – and reminded me of my old step class instructor in Winnipeg, who was in her mid-50s and overweight but kicked my ass EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. I don't know how that woman moved the way she did, but seriously. Jumping jacks til the cows came home. I digress… You are looking lovely as always, pally. I'm loving the layered cardigans!
xox,

Loving all the layers – and I totally hear you on the gym classes – I love it!

I am loving all the layers!! You look so cozy and chic, I definitely need to bust out the layers for all the snow we got today.
That's so funny about the older lady, yeah sometimes I see some of them at the gym and they are whooping me at everything I'm doing!!

Ha ha ha, I've definitely been in the same situation! It always reminds me that I need to exercise more! 🙂 I LOVE all the layering you've got going on. A perfect example of how to layer to perfection!

love the layers and these photos are so beautiful. Love that coat. I totally know what you mean I've done classes and work outs before that have left me unable to lift a finger the next day haha but totally worth it 😉

Haha – I can totally relate! I took a boot camp class yesterday and the instructor was probably in her 40's or 50's and I was dying!!
Love this multiple layered look – looks cozy without being too bulky 🙂

'Tis the season to be layered! At least you still look cute, I usually feel like a bag lady wearing all my clothes at once to stay warm 😛
