Hello everyone,

How was your weekend? I spent my first weekend of total freedom relaxing downtown or at home with good family and friends, a welcome change from the more hectic pace my life has taken in recent months. For my day downtown spent with my brother tasting various treats, catching up with old friends, and window-shopping, I decided to wear this rather loud striped blazer and faux leather combo. While I love this particular trend that is running rampant in shirts and blazers lately, I was unsure about whether such bold striped styles would last for very long. However, when I spotted them for a very reasonable price at H&M, I decided to take the brave plunge and go for it. Damn the consequences! ;)
