I was really hoping 2018 would be off to a warmer start, but Mother Nature had a different idea.

Us Canadians have been experiencing some very, very cold weather. I’m talking -30 degrees where the air physically hurts your face. All I could think about while taking these photos is how easy the bloggers from California have it, but that didn’t stop me! When life gives you lemons, wear a really, really warm coat.

I recently picked up these pants from Aritzia, and couldn't wait to go home and style them. I've been loving pops of red lately, and the zipper on the inside of the leg made me love these bottoms even more. And did I mention they're 50% off?!
