I know the brand Ily Couture doesn’t need much of an introduction. Ily Couture has grown so much and stays true to its motto: the go-to source for affordable and trendy jewelery for the everyday girl on a budget.

Most recently, they expanded into apparel and accessories and I am loving this handbag. The top handles and 2 zippers make it easy to carry your daily haul in while maintaining a stylish appeal. That’s why Ily Couture and I have teamed up to give one Pia handbag away to a lucky reader! See below on how you can snag one for yourself!

A Few Favs + Giveaway {Closed}


Blouse: c/o Joe Fresh | Pants: Zara c/o Square One | Shoes: Steve Madden {love these} | Necklace: c/o Purple Paparazzi | Bag: Louis Vuitton | Sunnies: Karen Walker | Belt: Target | Bracelets: c/o Joe Fresh, J.Crew, c/o Stella & Dot

I’d have to say there are a few favs going on in this outfit today. Firstly – the colour combo. I sported something quite similar back in July of last year, and I am still obsessed with the orange and pink duo. This time I tied in some fun leopard print to update the look. A second fav? This Purple Paparazzi necklace. I’ve sported this bad boy numerous times (as seen here, here and here) and it never gets old! The classic look mixed with a gold finish is just irresistible!

Another fav of mine? Shu Uemera. Blending science, nature and art together, the brand offers hairstyling and skin care products along with a range of elegant and professional tools that professionals and consumers adore. The brand recently launched its website, www.shuuemura.ca to the Canadian market offering 24/7 access to the legendary Japanese brand.

Pythons and Leopards

Dress {worn as jacket}: c/o elle lauri | Pants: c/o Joe Fresh {similar} | Shoes: Zara | Scarf: Unknown | Sunnies: Karen Walker | Clutch: “The Austin” from Danielle Nicole thanks to The Shopping Channel | Gold Bangles: R.J. Graziano thanks to The Shopping Channel | Watch: Micheal Kors | Bracelets: J.Crew, c/o Stella & Dot 

I’ve recently come to appreciate the value of a fabulous clutch. It’s got to be the perfect shape, size and texture to really compliment an outfit and hold its own. This ‘Austin’ model from Danielle Nicole really does the trick. The python pattern is a subtle hint of texture and adds the perfect touch to any outfit. I’m pumped to sport this new number around town!

Necklace: c/o Stella Dot | Watch: Michael Kors | Bracelets: c/o Luxe Craving, c/o Stella Dot

First off, a big thank you is extended to Katie with Stella and Dot for these amazing pieces.
I’ve been coveting Stella & Dot pieces for a while and thanks to her, I’ve finally got my hands on some.
The renegade bracelet and Bianca Tassel necklace have certainly become quick favs.

I’m also really digging the designer of today’s dress, Zamrie, from Chicago.
The line is a mix of fresh and classic pieces that come together for a timeless look.
I HIGHLY recommend taking a look at the collection and to wet your appetite even further,
use “fauxpas” at checkout for an extra 50% (yes, you read that right) your order.
You’ll have to let me know if you found anything special!

I cannot believe an entire year has flown by on this blog.
I really do want to THANK YOU for your continued support.
I have mad love for all of you and the inspriation you provide me with.

With a new year comes a new layout and brand for myself. I was over the moon to come across Pretty Smitten
who offers adorable monogram items for the modern girl. I highly recommend checking out the shop but buyer beware –
it’s hard to say no to just one item!
