This weekend is shaping up quite nicely. The weather has hit above-average seasonal temperatures, the infamous Calgary Stampede officially starts today, and I’m hosting a breakfast for some of my nearest and dearest. I love weekends that offer a little bit of everything, such as friends and family, entertainment, outdoor adventures, and a little bit of downtime sprinkled in there. Whatever you’re up to this summer weekend, let’s all try to get out and make the most of it, shall we.
I can’t believe it’s been two years since I started Centre Street Style. It’s such an interesting measurement of time, another reminder that life is speeding up, getting busier, and teaching me something new everyday. I love my blog and my little space in the internet. I love dreaming up posts, sharing recipes, and styling outfits. I love that I have an outlet for my creative mind and my passion of fashion. This year has been full of ups and downs. Lessons have been learned, hearts have been broken and actions have been taken towards achieving long awaited dreams.
This blog would never have become a reality without the unrelenting support and tremendous talent of my dear older brother, who despite weather conditions, technical difficulties, and wardrobe malfunctions has been alongside me every step of the way. And when he had to take paternity leave, I was fortunate to have my very dear other half step in to keep it going. So thank you. Thank you to all of those of you who take the time to stop by for a little read, to view the images, and to inspire me to keep going. Here’s to another year of fabulous fashion, delicious recipes, and endless entertaining.

Most summer seasons come and go with little fanfare from me in regards to shorts. I’ve always struggled with the fit of shorts due to my muscular legs, which designers kept forgetting to leave room for. This year, however, has an abundance of shorts options for literally everyone. Not only are there incredible fabrics, styles and colours available, but designers have upped the anti by creating matching jackets for a chic little shorts suit ensemble. Oh the options you have with matching separates. Can you say love at first sight?

During the winter months I tend to be drawn to a wardrobe that consists heavily of black. There is some practicality involved as the winter months bring dirt in spades, which more often than not I end up wearing in some capacity. So typically when the weather starts warming up, often does my ensemble colour choices. I have to say though, incorporating black, even in summer, never seems like a bad idea. Especially when paired with white. This gives me an opportunity to wear white, but when I undoubtedly spill coffee all over me, the black accents are there to help cover it up.

I’ve been away from my little space on the internet for a while now, sometimes you just need to take a break to regroup and reevaluate. It’s been nearly two years since I started this blog, and there’s definitely been times of questioning whether it’s worth all of the effort to keep it afloat. At the end of the day though, it feels pretty significant to have a tiny place in such a vast space to share what I love most. So I’m back, reinvigorated and full of ideas, information and images to share with all of you. Let’s have some fun figuring this all out together (preferably with a delicious cocktail in hand).
