I'm writing this from Montreal as we speak! Hope you had a great weekend! It's been a whirlwind over here. We left first thing Saturday morning, which is great because we had all day yesterday to sleep in then explore the City! But if you're anything like me, you get just as exhausted on vacation as compared to real life, if not more so! I really can't complain though because it's been pretty amazing. The husband and I usually opt for beach vacations, so to be in such an awesome, historic-filled city like this is a special treat! I'll share everything in my suitcase later in the week, but for today's look, I wanted layers because I knew it was chilly but that we would be walking a ton. These boots actually lasted me all day! We walked around the City for about 6 hours before I finally retired them before dinner. I'd call that success in the shoe book! I'll keep this short, but wanted to share some photos from our trip so far!

I had a lot of amazing pictures - it was hard to narrow it down for you guys! And the food! Holy crap! I'll have to do a whole other post just on the food alone! It's been a fun few days here - it really is a pleasant change from the beach! And I guess the good thing is, we are walking enough to offset all the freaking calories we are intaking!
Have a great Monday - more to come!
SHOP THE LOOK:
Montreal is such a beautiful city and your outfit is perfect for a chilly day to walk in this amazing city. Enjoy the rest that Montreal has to offer and I look forward to more Montreal posts. =))
ReplyDeleteGlad you enjoyed this! I am seriously really loving it here! The sights, the people, the food - all amazing!
DeleteLOVE this outfit! It's perfection. Montreal is beautiful, especially the Notre-Dame Basilica where Celine Dion got married. It seems that you had a great time! :)

Well, I definitely recommend coming here - its truly amazing with so much character! So glad I was able to piggy back a personal trip onto the husband's work trip!
DeleteLoving the pictures. I so want to go to Montreal now. The top and the boots looks so good. I so love fall outfits!!

You should put it on your list! Such a beautiful city!
DeleteOh mah gaw!!! These photos are amazing! I've never had Montreal on my list of "places I really want to visit someday" but I am adding it immediately! And your outfit is SO SO perfect. Love it!
ReplyDeleteGina - On the Daily Express
It's amazing how much it looks and feels like I imagine Europe to look! And seriously- French is everywhere! They had more english stuff in Mexico than here! But everyone is so nice and it really is beautiful! I'm sad we haven't shopped yet- hopefully today after we get work stuff done!
DeleteGorgeous photos! I've never been to Montreal but it looks amazing! Hope you are having a great trip!

Thanks, girl! I don't know why it took me so long to get booties like this! They are great!
DeleteAnd I am seriously loving Montreal! I wish I spoke French fluently!
Beautiful pictures! I think I need to add Montreal to my places to visit!
ReplyDeleteYes, you really do! It's amazing! Definitely one of my favorite places I have visited ever, and that says a lot!
DeleteSo glad you are enjoying yourself! Everything about this outfit is perfect, I want to snatch it right off you! Enjoy the rest of your trip.

Haha! Glad you approve! I felt perfectly appropriate and comfortable in this outfit! Loved all the structured pieces and color!
DeleteOkay it looks so pretty there! I had no idea! Love this jacket, too. I want to add a brown one to my wardrobe, but can't decide between chocolate and camel brown haha!
ReplyDeletewww.amemoryofus.com
I would do camel for sure! Chocolate is hard to style which is why I picked this one to be Oxblood! The red in it gives it versatility! But a camel one would be pretty universal for you!! Can't wait to see what you pick!
DeleteLove your outfit! Those booties look great with the jacket and the blue crossbody is the perfect touch. Beautiful pictures. I hear such great things about Montreal, it's definitely on my list of places to visit. Enjoy your vacation! ~Cynthia
ReplyDeleteYes, I'm glad to hear that! I was so impressed, would definitely go back!
DeleteWhat beautiful pictures...I can't wait to see/hear more! Fun opportunity for you guys! Love the floral tank with the cognac booties and leather jacket!! <3 Loved it with the leopard slip-ons too!!
ReplyDeleteKellie @ www.ie-style.com
Ha! Yeah, the leopard slip ons were a good idea for me to pack! My feet needed the relief, and they just make me smile anyway!
DeleteGreat outfit and great pictures, glad you are enjoying our fair country. Next time zip two hours up the road to ottawa we have some pretty spectacular sites here as well
ReplyDeleteI've been to Ottawa once for work, and it really is a beautiful city also! I actually prefer it over Toronto, but mainly because Toronto is so dense - it's gorgeous but I could not live there. Ottawa - for sure, I could live there. And now I can say the same about Montreal! :)
DeleteLooks amazing! I totally understand about the whole vacation being tiring thing. Although my dream vacation is to experience Europe and all it has to offer, we often book beach vacations purely for the relaxing factor. You look very stylish!

Yes - it's hard to give that up! But then I just think about all the cities like this that I would miss out on! It was worth the exhaustion yesterday!

Oh, glad you can appreciate this with me! Yes, it's the best! We have been enjoying every second! And the people are unbelievably nice and friendly and patient with us non-french speaking americans!
Deleteounds like you are really enjoying yourself! A 6 hour walk through the city? Whew! I'm exhausted for you LOL your shoes definitely proved their worth on that day I'm sure. I hope you planned an extra day or two off upon your return to the states. We often need a vacation from our vacation :)
ReplyDeletewww.dressed2dnines.com
No rest for the weary! I didn't have any time off when we returned, but it was worth it!

DeleteWow! Looks like you had an amazing time and what a beautiful place. A must visit for me in the future. I am loving that jacket -- may I ask what size you purchased? I have recently started online shopping again since I have had such bad luck with sizing in the past. I am thinking of ordering that jacket after seeing it on several of your posts. I am definitely loving it! I am petite as well and may order the same size as you. Please share if you would. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteHi Jenny! I am wearing a small. I am usually a size 4, sometimes a 6 on super form fitting pieces. I have a 34 bust and 27/28 inch waist. I have a wide frame, so if you are narrow, you may even be able to do an XS. Such a great piece - you will love it!
DeleteAmazing pictures and trip! The look is perfect!
