Shirt - Aritzia; Skirt - Forever 21; Boots - Aldo
 

So, today's Pinspiration Wednesday look doesn't come from Pinterest per se, but I bet if I searched the right boards I could find it. This week's inspiration comes from the lovely Vicki of Adventures in Fashion. While browsing her blog over the weekend I was floored to see the way she paired plaid and sequins - a combination I had never even considered. As soon as I saw it I knew I had to give this look a try, and what better place to wear my ensemble than to the Bloggers Brunch on Sunday - because who doesn't love mixing patterns and sequins like a group of fashion bloggers?!

Clearly, I wasn't the only one thinking this combo was amazing because the always sweet Emily of Tinfoil Tiaras was rocking the same combo - great minds!

Here are a few shots from the first (hopefully of many) Ottawa Bloggers Brunch.

  1. I love the way you took Vicki's look and made it your own - and maybe it's just my life long love of black and white but (shhh, don't tell), I actually like your version better ;)
