I grabbed this sweater at the Sask Fashion Week trunk show last May and it instantly had me wishing summer away so I could wear it.  I am truly obsessed with everything about it. The color, the weight (it’s super heavy but yet very comfortable), fit, and the adorable collar… honestly I cannot think of one thing  I would change… the price, only because I want it in all of the colors!

Rebecca King sweaters are available locally at Cade Style Lounge, Seed Sustainable Style, and Studio S, or you can order online from her website!

We almost always hit up Whyte Avenue.  It’s perfect to stroll up and down popping in and out of the boutiques with a coffee in hand.  Although we often go to Whyte, this was my first visit to Workhall.  The unique boutique focusses on artistry over commercialism, creates small production runs, is process driven, and empowers independent designers- it’s impossible not to fall in love with this company.

From greeting me and offering a bottle of water, to letting me know they could alter any garment on site to fit me, (even if they didn’t have my size available) their customer service aligns with their core values of artistry over commercialism.

Of course I couldn’t leave empty handed.  I found a couple of treats, this striped t shirt dress included! Styled as a dress or top I am totally in love with the shape and jersey material. Another staple dress for my summer wardrobe!

I love the casual look and feel of this dress so it only felt natural to pair it with sneakers and a plaid around my waste!

I love finding new unique boutiques! Share some of your favourites, don’t forget to list the city!

Fit:  Like anything, the fit is everything.  Finding one that is not too short, too long, isn’t too tight, too loose and doesn’t pull awkwardly can be quite tough… but when you find one, you’ll know, so buy it in multiple colors.

Style: I prefer a tight fighting crop as I find them the easiest to style. As mentioned before, they transition easily from ripped denim to looking chic with a nice pencil skirt. Although, don’t discredit those flowy & feminine ones either. They are great as well just can be a bit harder to style. I guess when it comes to choosing a style, keep the following in mind: your body type -what is the most flattering from all angles? Make sure to check the back!  How many ways can you style this? When I am debating a purchase I try to think of at least three outfits before I purchase, and if you’re only buying in one color stick to black. It goes with everything and transitions flawlessly from season to season allowing you to get the most wear out of it.

Details: A great crop with just the perfect amount of detail is actually quite hard to find so luckily I have done the research for you. Sage Wosminity, a local designer, only 17 years old grabbed my attention at Sask Fashion Week two years ago. Her collection was fun and flirty but still had that sophistication older audiences gravitate towards.  Pretty outstanding young women with more drive, dedication, and ambition that many adults I know.  I hardly know this girl and my heart bursts with pride every time I see her work.  I have gotten to know her a little more over the last few months and I am antsy to see her next move- girls got talent.  Her attention to detail is undeniable and will take her places if she continues to hustle.

I originally grabbed this black crop top right off the model as Sask Fashion Week… okay not literally, but basically. Sage had a trunk show following the set and I literally ran to grab it as I knew they would go fast. I have since worn it easily 30 times. It even made it’s way through Europe with me.  I backpacked and only took items I knew I could wear over and over and over…

Since purchasing my crop in 2014 Sage has done a slight redesign and added some great new colors. I personally am obsessed with the white one which isn’t surprising… the white section in my closet is growing by the day.

Grab your own by contacting Sage here! Also, don’t forget to follow her on instagram to keep up to date with the up and coming designer.
