Aviator Sunglasses

I have been wanting a pair of aviator sunglasses for some time now. Other than the classic style there is just something about them which I love. Whether you’re dressed casually or trying to achieve that rocker chic style a pair of aviators will complete any look.

I was on the search to buy a new pair of aviator style sunglasses so I visited 3 websites that I thought may have a pair with my name on it. I wasn’t looking for anything expensive, but I still had some criteria for them to meet.

I wanted them to have gold rims, a tan, brown lens, and some extra detailing on the sides.

Here are the three pairs I saw:

ALDO NEILS Aviators- $12

H&M Aviators- $7.95

After going to all three stores to make my decision I decided on the beautiful pair from Aldo! I just loved the detailing on the arms and thought the quality was the best. 

 

It just goes to show that the most expensive pair aren't necessarily going to be the best ones.

The next thing on my list is to buy a case for them. Aldo always has some great cases and they only cost $8! Currently the only case they have available is the one below called MCCOVERY. I've seen some really nice styles before, so I'm going to wait until they bring them out for the new season.

What are you favourite pair of sunglasses?

Fall Style: Laidback Chic

Fall is my favorite season when it comes to fashion. I love the look of a cozy scarf, loose fitted top, leggings and to top it off, a cute pair of boots!

I have put together an outfit that I like to call Laidback Chic with some of my favorite pieces for this season. I hope you enjoy!

 

I love this long buttoned tunic from Dynamite! 

It even comes with a thin belt to synch your waist.

These dark jeggings from American Eagle are perfect for that laidback look. 

They make you look put together while you feel extremely comfortable!

These flat boots from ALDO called Horkey are perfect 

for when the weather starts to get chilly.
They look amazing paired with a pair of skinny jeans or in this case, jeggings!

The perfect accessory to complete this chic look is this gorgeous bracelet! 

The colors works perfectly with the tunic blouse. This piece also makes your outfit a bit more classy as well!

ALDO- Free Shipping!

 I recently ordered some things from the ALDO website and thought I would share my purchases with you. Another good reason to order now is so you can take advantage of the free shipping offer with all orders! ALDO is one of my favourite stores for shoes, handbags, and accessories. I can't resist looking at the website every once in a while to see what new items they have. One thing I try to avoid though is paying "full price". I usually wait until the items go on sale and then grab the great deal.

As I mentioned previously, I like to do research on new products before I make my purchases. Even though there is not much to review about things like shoes, handbags, accessories, etc., I like to see what the product 'actually' looks like in real life compared to the picture given on a website. Hence, I usually try to search for the items using their description names and see if any bloggers have any posts about them. Most of the time I can't find anything, so I've decided to post my own ALDO purchases on my blog.

The first thing I bought was a new pair of high heel sandals called HAERTEL.






I had been on the look out for a nice pair of 'strappy' sandals for awhile, so when I found these gold babies I had to get them. Originally they were $80 CAD (typical price for ALDO shoes), but I was happy to see that they were on sale for $54.98. In addition to that, I have a SPC card (a discount card that can be used at participating stores) that gives me 10% off at ALDO. So before tax the total came to $49.48!

You can attach the handle on one side as a wristlet

The next thing I got was a gold clutch/wristlet (I guess I'm into gold lately?) . I was not planning on buying this, but the price was calling my name. Originally selling for $25, the WILLITZER was on sale for only $9.09 :O! I also used my SPC card for this so before tax I paid $8.18...Now do you see why I love ALDO and SPC?

I am quite happy with my new purchases and hope that you too will find something you like at a great price from the ALDO website. Go check it out and let me know about any of your great steals! :)
