What and Where

Sunny has been the forecast for the last few days and hopefully, there are many more sunny days ahead! There is nothing better than waking up in the morning to some glorious golden rays of the sun! It always makes me excited when it's sunny! It's as if everything will be alright, just perfectly alright, all day. Do you feel that way too?



J (with all his brilliant ideas that frankly scares me most of the time) suggested and directed this new segment of the blog - the Threesomes! It means exactly what you're thinking! Coz you were thinking that this segment involves taking one item in your closet and reworking it three times, right?

Thought so!

This month's Threesome Hot Stuff is this beautiful skirt from the gorgeous collection at Kania. I first wore this unique skirt as a dress to last year's Ottawa Fashion Week and I was very pleased that Stacey, the beautiful and creative force behind Kania loved my take on her piece. Remember this?



Today, paired with a simple black cami, heeled with black patent leather sandals and accented by the wonderfully unique cuff from the widely popular frAsh Femme collection - I decided to wear it the way it was intended to be - a skirt!



What do you think? Is it a Hit or Miss?

Stay tuned for Part 2 and 3 of the new Twenty York Street's Threesome segment!

Omg how cute! I can't get enough of the kania skirt, great burst of color for these wonderful bright days! I love that clutch too, so hot!

Love the skirt-- both ways that you wore it! The colour is so fun and I just <3 the paperbag shape. I especially like how you styled it at Ottawa Fashion Week. It looks so classy with the chandelier earrings!

Happy Monday girl!

Total hit Babe! You look amazing and I love that skirt. I see that it also comes in purple... it would be awesome in hot pink too!! The frAsh cuff is also amazing. Isobel is the best. I adore J's brilliant ideas. We must peer pressure him to write up that "how to..." post. Can't wait to see the other ways you were that skirt.
