Behind Blue Eyes

It’s been exceptionally hot in Calgary lately, and because of this, i’ve been wearing a lot of light dresses and shorts. As much as I like both of those things, I wanted to mix it up a bit and wear a skirt for a change. This corduroy skirt by BDG is a favourite of mine. It pairs really well a lot of different tops that I own, but I think it goes especially well with this band shirt. I added a belt for an extra touch.

Everybody is into the western theme this month in Calgary thanks to the Stampede. Because I like add a touch of western wear all year round, I keep it going long after the Stampede ends!

Learning To Fly

One of my favourite things about living in Alberta, is all of the different types of landscapes it has to offer. From the Rocky Mountains, to the Hoodoos of Drumheller, there is such a wide variety. For these photos, I decided to head out to a more rural area for a change. I’m obsessed with the colour yellow, so a canola field was the perfect spot to take photos!

I recently added this wide brim brixton hat to my rather large hat collection. It’s a little bigger than what I usually wear, but I love it! For the rest of the look, I chose a body suit, a pair of jean shorts, and a poncho. We’ve been experiencing a bit of a heatwave in Calgary lately, so the poncho is a little too warm to wear during the day. On the other hand it’s perfect for the cooler summer nights.

Secret Garden Kimono

I recently took a trip out to the mountains with my friend Jaclynn to take some photos and explore a little. We took these photos at Wedge pond, a cute spot out in the Kananaskis area. I try to get out to the mountains as much as possible, especially in the summer months!

For this outfit, I chose some new and old favourites. I have a bit of an obsession with kimono’s as you may have noticed, and this one is by Free People. I really love the colour and pattern. I paired it with my favourite pair of Mother jeans, and black booties by Steve Madden. To accessorize, I added two of my favourite Shesso necklaces, and my all time favourite hat.

Ride The Roof

This past weekend I had the pleasure of attending Ride the Roof, a spin class fundraiser for two awesome organizations, TreeEra and Love for Lewiston. The event took place on top of the Marriot Hotel in downtown Calgary. They managed to fit 100 bikes up there which was no small feat! The weather was awesome, and the music was blasting, there was just so much energy and excitement on that roof! Knowing that it was all for two good causes made it that much better. I haven’t been to a spin class since I was kid, so I wasn’t really sure what to expect. Needless to say, I had a great time and got a great work out! I might even have to look into taking some more spin classes in the future!

TreeEra is an organization that is committed to combating climate change. They help individuals and businesses reduce their carbon footprint by community funding the planting of trees.

Love for Lewiston is a family run organization who’s committed to raising funds and awareness for Spinal Muscular Atrophy.

The event was sponsored by Lululemon, who provided these awesome Love for Lewiston tanks for everyone to wear! They were also very kind to outfit me in a pair of leggings, and a top to wear to the event!

Twist & Shout

Last week my sister came down from Edmonton to visit for a few days. Whenever she’s in town, it gives me a great excuse to go to all of my favourite spots for coffee, and food. One of those being Rosso Coffee Roasters in Tuxedo. They have great coffee, and this particular location is exceptionally cute inside. It’s just an all around great place to hang out, and snap a few photos. If you are in the Calgary area I recommend checking it out!

This look consists of some of my usual favourites. These distressed Justblack jeans, and this brown hat, are staples in my wardrobe. I also added this yellow tank by free people. I recently found it at Purr, an awesome local boutique. To accessorize I added the latest addition to my watch collection, this white bondi watch by Daniel Wellington. It’s the perfect summer accessory. From now until July 30/17 use the discount code: THEFOXANDFERN for 15% off at danielwellington.com

Starry Eyed

I’ve been on the hunt for new dresses to add to my wardrobe lately. It hasn’t been very easy, but I think that’s because i’m really picky. I don’t think that it’s a bad thing though. I’m trying to make the best possible choices when it comes to clothing purchases. I’m only buying items I really love, and that I know I’ll get a lot of use out of. Sometimes I get suckered in by good deals and I buy things that I really don’t need. I’m trying to crack down on that. That being said, this dress is one purchase that I am really happy with! To start, it’s one of my favourite colours. I also love the lace and crochet detailing along the front. The rest of the look consists of one of my favourite hats, and this gorgeous necklace by Coutukitsch.

Say You Love Me

It’s been really hot in Calgary lately and i’m not quite used to it yet. I’m not sure that I ever really do get used to it, but I shouldn’t complain. It’s better than freezing cold weather! Because of this, i’ve been wearing a lot of dresses and shorts lately. This particular dress is one of the latest additions to my wardrobe. Needless to say, i’m absolutely obsessed with it! I love the pattern, I love the fit and I kind of want to wear it everyday. Because the print on this dress is so bold, I kept my accessories really minimal. I added one of my new Shesso necklaces, and one of my favourite hats to finish off the look!
