What Cheer

Weekly bit of inspiration.  Definitely feeling some new fall things like midi skirts paired with comfy sweaters.  I move back to Montreal soon so interior design is on my mind!  Excited to go back and be in my own home.

Top - Topshop / Leggings - Lululemon / Shoes - Aldo / Purse - Kate Spade ( similar ) When I was in NYC a few weeks ago I stumbled upon this adorable top/dress in the petites section of Topshop.  Being only 5'2" I'm absolutely a petite person and I love how the Topshop in Soho has an entire section dedicated to the smaller people like me.  This piece is quite short but I think it can work for many different occasions just depending on what you put underneath it.  In this case, I had this on for a day working at the gallery but I could easily wear it to a party with only tights underneath.

These pieces run from $220 USD to over

I made the decision to wear a breezy dress from Free People which worked perfectly because of how incredibly hot it was in the city that day.  Paired with my favorite Birkenstocks (yes, they're not
