Bestseller lookbook

10 August 20171 Comment

Hi guys,

In today’s blog post, we had the chance to work with Bestseller to present you 6 different outfits you can find in their store. We had so much fun creating these looks and shooting them for you. We are totally in love with their new collection and we hope you will be too. Also, stay tuned for some more news coming up soon with them … we are preparing something else for you!

On that note, let’s get into the different looks. Don’t forget to give us your thoughts on the looks !

Denim on Denim Love – Laura

This look is perfect for you more grungy and casual girls out there. Laura loved the effect given when she paired her denim jacket and these light washed jeans. To complete the outfit, she opted for a very trendy graphic T crop top.

Girls Club – Kath

Want to look chic but still casual? This outfit is the answer. Kath chose to wear these black and white trousers with a cute tight up shirt to give more a casual vibe to the outfit.

Roses and Reds – Just

This look is centered around the amazing ripped and embroidered jeans. In the store, Just found this really cute red bomber jacket that she thought it would perfectly complete the outfit.

Bad and Girly – Laura

How to look badass and girly at the same time? Just add this cute pink suede jacket and this complementary graphic shirt to your favorite pair of ripped jeans.

Classic with a twist – Kath

Kath totally fell in love with this white bell sleeves shirt when she was visiting the store. But when she put the outfit together, it felt like something was missing. That is when she spotted these very cute and different orange heels to complete the look.

Old school – Just

For this look, Just was inspired by the beautiful blue pleated skirt. She decided to add a lacy bodysuit to keep the focus on the skirt. To make the outfit a bit more fun, why not add this patent leather jacket.

Hope you enjoyed the looks !

As we said earlier stay tuned for exciting news coming up soon… especially for those of you living in Quebec city !

See you soon,

A Weekend in Montreal

2 August 2017Leave a comment

Hi guys,

Last week we decided to take a little girls trip to Montreal. Our main goal was, yes to have fun, but also to discover some new cute and trendy places, which is something we think we totally achieved! We discovered some restaurants that just recently opened and they happen to be perfect for you trendy girls.

If you know any other cute shops or restaurants you want to share with us, please do so in the comment section! Now, let’s get into our little travel diary!

Hope you enjoy!

Firstly, we thought what better way to start our trip than with a brunch at a small café. After a lot of research, we finally decided on a cute restaurant/ice cream shop/boutique situated on the Plateau Mont-Royal called Au Festin de Babette. We both took a different brunch plate and enjoyed it so much! Totally recommend if you want to start the day right.

BEST BRUNCH OF MY LIFE 🍽🍴☕️ Finally spent some time with my cousin after ages. ⤵️⤵️⤵️⤵️⤵️ – Smoked salmon, poached eggs with lemon sauce on toast. – Gratin dauphinois. – Asparagus soup. – Chocolate mousse. – Orange juice. – Mocha coffee with almond milk.

After our very filling and tasty meal it was time for a little bit of shopping (obviously). Before that, we discovered that there was a Barbie Expo near st-Catherine so we needed to go check it out! We thought it was so fun and totally recommend you check it out if you need some activity ideas on a rainy day in Montreal.

When our shopping on St-Catherine was over, it was time for a dinner break. We think a lot of you guys will agree on that but what better way to finish the day than a sushi place. We went to a restaurant that just opened it’s doors recently and we fell in love with the food, the ambiance and the owners of this place. We can easily say that the sushis at Le NINJA sushi & bar are the best we tasted so far, and this is a lot to say for two sushis lovers.

Aka les meilleures sushis 🍣

The next day we decided to treat ourselves and stop at a smoothie and poke bowl place. This is also a very recent addition to the Saint-Catherine street in the Gay district. With it’s Hawaiian vibe and very cute decor, we are now obsessed with Kamehameha Snack-Bar. Our smoothie bowls were on point but what really made this place special was their watermelon and black sesame ice cream in a fish shaped cone. It can sound weird just saying it but wait till you see some pictures. They change the flavours every week and they seem to be getting better and better each time!

Sun Glasses / Bisou

We included a mix of casual, dressy and comfortable options that you can easily dress up or down for any occasion.

We hope that you are enjoying your summer so far and let’s get into our outfits.

Bohemian Chic

For all the bohemians girls out there, this is my take on a boho look mixed with a little bit of a glam touch. Perfect for a really hot day where you want to stay comfy but still look put together.

Shop the look

Hat / Aldo

Top / Urban Outfitters

Pants / Zara

Lace up sandals / Little Burgundy

Denim Jacket / H&M

Necklaces / Urban Outfitters & Forever XXI

Effortless & Girly

This outfit is perfect for a day where you want to wear something easy but still cute.

Shop the look

Tank top / YaYa & Co

Shorts / Dynamite

Denim Jacket / Dynamite

Hoops / Urban Outfitters

Sunglasses / Bizou

Insta-Inspired Look

When it comes to fashion, I get inspired while scrolling down my Instagram feed. I had been seing this type of shirt all over the Internet recently, so when I saw one in Zara I totally had to buy it and show you guys how I style it.

Shop the look

Shirt / Zara

Shorts / Zara

Belt / Forever XXI

Brunchin’

This outfit includes three of my favorite things : blue, white and stripes. That is why I am obsessed with it ! The skirt is also very interesting since it is open in the front and you can see the shorts underneath. I think it is a different piece and I love that you can also tie it different ways.

Shop the look

Bodysuit / Forever XXI

Skort / Necessary Clothing

Lace-up sandals / Steve Madden

Fun events for great companies in Quebec

21 June 2017Leave a comment

Hey guys! In today’s blog post we decided to give you a sneak peek into the events we went to recently.

Menz Club

Tuesday May 30th was the opening of the second Menz Club salon. If you are already familiar with this salon, the one located in the Edifice Delta in Laurier is, in fact, a Menz Club Signature wich offers a more luxurious service than his big brother located in Lebourgneuf. Like the owner Ophelia-Anna Nagar explained to us the night of the event, her salon is dedicated to men. She wants to offer them a time to pamper themselves, similar to when we go for a girls day and go get our nails and hair done for a special event. The services are offered in the form of a menu, so you can choose your main service and add extras if you want to. From facials to a hair cut and to beard trimming, they offer something for every type of man and for different needs. So, if you want to spoil a man that is important for you, we totally recommend booking an appointment for them in one of the two Menz Club ! He’ll totally love the lounge vibe and the amazing service.

Womance Pop-up Shop

More recently, on monday the 12th, we were invited to the launch of the Quebec instalment of the Womance tour. For those of you who don’t don’t yet, Womance is an online fashion boutique created by Andréanne Marquis, a young entrepreneur. For the time of the tour, Womance is stepping out of the web and coming in different cities in the province of Quebec, starting with Quebec City. If you want to take a look at the amazing clothes and accessories available, they there are still located in Place de la Cite for a couple of days, ending the 25th. But if you are not from Quebec City, don’t worry because you will have the chance to take a look at their super cute and fashionable collection in Rimouski (July), Montreal (August), Trois-Rivieres (September), Gatineau (October), Riviere-du-Loup (November), Quebec City (December), Brossard (March), Bathurst (April) and in Repentigny (May). Go check it out !

All about tonight pop up @womance_ca shop! Totally enjoyed the event 💕 #lookdujour #summer #ootd #styles #womance #event #blogger #chikjolly -K&J

Hello Summer !

29 May 20171 Comment

Hello guys!

We are so happy to finally be back ! Finals are over and we can’t wait to create more content for you guys. We have a bunch of collaborations coming up in the summer and a ton of new ideas so stay tuned for that !

Today, we decided to show you some of our favorite outfits of the moment. It is slowly (very slowly) getting hotter here in Quebec so we are gradually transitioning more into summer clothes and we love it !

Thrift Shop

Last week we went to the opening of La Friperie Huppée, a company started by an awesome young entrepreneur we know (go check out her Instagram @lafriperiehuppee). There was a lot of cute clothes and I totally fell in love with this cute patterned dress ! Pairing it with my flowy hat and my boots has been my go-to outfit since then, I am obsessed with this look for summer !

Shop the look

Dress / Zara ( La Fripperie Huppée )

Hat / American Eagle

Boots / Aldo

Reflective

During summer time I love to wear some fun sunglasses. I think that it can make a basic outfit a little bit more fashionable. My personal favorites are these super reflective sunnies.

Shop the look

Off the shoulder top / Dynamite

Denim skirt / Urban outfitters

Sandals / Aldo

Choker / Aldo

Baywatch

For this look, I decided to wear my one piece swimsuit as a bodysuit. It is a perfect outfit to wear to a beach day.

Shop the look

Swimsuit / gift

Jeans / Levis

Girlie with a Twist

I love bodysuits (got this one in two different colors, I’m a fan) since they’re so easy and comfy and I am still into the choker trend so this outfit represents my style 100%. Layering a bomber jacket over the top gives the overall look a little more structure and warms me up on colder days.

Shop the look

Bodysuit / Forever XXI

Bomber Jacket / Zara

Skirt / Urban Outfitters

Choker / Armonia Jewelry

We hope you enjoyed this post ! If you have any ideas for upcoming ones, don’t forget to leave them in the comments.

Have a great week, see you soon !

SubZero Sports

26 April 201726 April 2017Leave a comment

Hi guys,

Today we have a very special post in collaboration with a young brand created in Quebec city. In this blog post, we are going to present it to you and give you a small review of it.

SubZero Sports is a male and female clothing brand based in Quebec created by Daniel-Eric Almog, Vincent Zampieri Blackburn and Brendon Drouin Doyon. The idea behind the brand is to offer affordable clothes that are perfect for practicing any sport. In fact, the creators of Sub Zero realized that there is a lot of small brands creating pieces mostly for style, thus that were not designed to practice physical activities. This is where the idea of SubZero submerged and they decided to create high quality and affordable pieces perfect for a street style look but also ideal for a football practice.

As a matter of fact, after only 7 months, the company seeked for athletes like Olivier Paquet-Brissonare (player for the Carabin of Montreal) and Alexandre Giguère-Roy (Culturiste, rugby player at Cegep Limoilou) wearing their merchandise. After wearing them the day of the shooting, we totally understand why they adopted their clothes so fast! They are so comfortable and soft, we totally recommend trying them out.

As you can see, the logo of the brand is made out of the junction of an “S” and a “z” to create an hourglass where there is not much time left. They want to remind us that life is a question of time and if you want to do something do it now, which is something you can apply in any sport.

Go check their Facebook page:

https://www.facebook.com/pg/SubZero-Sports-164569654039392/shop/?ref=page_internal

Also, the owners wanted to give a special thank you to the people who helped them on different aspect of their brand.

Winter to Spring outfits

15 April 201715 April 2017Leave a comment

Hi guys!

So, it is that time of the year where the snow is slowly melting and where the sun is finally coming out. In this blog post, we want to show you our tips and tricks to switch up your winter outfits into spring ones.

We hope you enjoy!

First, it is the time to get your summer dresses out of the closet! I really enjoy mixing summery clothes with my more wintery ones like this big knit sweater and my knee high boots.

Shop the Look

Off-the-shoulder dress / Minkpink (Sensas)

Knit cardigan / ZARA

Boots / Aldo

Choker / Urban Outfitters

Hat / Aldo

Second, rather than use a black leather jacket, try a pastel one to add color and a more girly look to your outfit! I personally have been obsessed with both suede and pastel pink, so when I saw this jacket in Zara I instantly picked it up. It definitely is out of my comfort zone and that is why I love it so much.

Shop the look

Jacket / ZARA

Bodysuit / American Apparel

Jeans / Hollister & Co

Shoes / Aldo

Third, leave your black outfits and incorporate some pastel colors and cute lacy details.

Shop the Look

Sweater / ZARA

Lace cami / ZARA

Ripped Jeans / H&M

Slip ons / Vans

Fourth, add more pink! If you couldn’t tell yet, we adore this cute blush pink color for spring. We will totally be overusing it this spring season. Caps are also very inn right now, as well as white sneakers, which are two accessories we happen to love!

Hope this post gave you some inspiration for spring!

See you soon,
