Welcome to another edition of What I Wore (in iPhone only photos)! The days blend together pretty easily right now but thanks to these little outfit captures, I’m able to make some sense of the time that’s been passing. It’s essentially a visual journal and the practice of taking a moment to focus on something positive has been really good for my spirit.
Last week started slow after a busy birthday weekend (read: too much wine) so I didn’t make it out of sweats on Monday. Once I got going though, the days involved lots of planning, coordinating logistics and decision making behind the scenes. In between I managed to get some workouts in, trimmed my own bangs (disaster free!) and the weekend ended with a couple of nice family visits (from a distance of course).
Overall, my style gravitated back to classic shapes and lots of neutrals as the sunny, summery May days we started the month with swiftly turned chilly. So these might not be the most spring-inspired looks but they’re a testament to my favourite staples.
I haven’t been in a great headspace for writing these days so I hope you’ll forgive me for skipping the copy on this one. Carry on for a look at all the outfits I wore last week!

Hi Lee! I always look forward to your 10x10s and outfit posts. I was wondering: what necklace are you wearing in your Wednesday look? Thanks so much!
That’s so great to know Erica, thank you!! That necklace is the Woman Vase Pendant from Wolf Circus. They are one of my favourite Canadian jewelry designers. xo
Hello Style Bee, I love to follow your work, and hope you might have a suggestion for me. I am looking for an exercise bra – light exercise….I do essentrics at home. Due to arthritis I can’t pull a bra on over my head, especially those that are very tightly stretched material. I would like to find a front close exercise bra in a soft natural fabric…..with a bit of support if possible that works for yoga or essentrics. I come up empty…..if I do find one they have little spaghetti straps not suitable for larger busts. If you know of a source, I would love to know.
Hey Bonnie,
I know that a brand called Ulla do some great front -closing bras that could be used as sports bras for larger busts (I feel you) and can easily to be put on without pulling them over your head right. I haven’t worn one but they look really comfortable and robust. They’re expensive but I guess would last a long time. The blog The Lingerie Addict also has great advice and recommendations for bras for people whose mobility may be limited. Good luck!
X Belinda
Thanks for these suggestions Belinda!
Hi Bonnie! Thanks for your patience while I did some digging. My top recommendation would be Knix’s Catalyst Sports Bra. It doesn’t have a zip front but it has a clasp back which could be done up in front then turned to the back. Another option could be the Longevity Bra which could be pulled on via step through. My personal favourite bra these days is the LuxeLift bra so I can attest to the comfort, quality and breathability of Knix’s product.
I also came across Athleta’s Empower Bra which has a zip front.
Unfortunately, I could find an option made from a natural material but I’ve got my eye out and will let you know if I find something!
cute! loving the neutrals
So many beautiful outifts! I love how your style translates even to loungewear. 🙂
Love these outfits! The weather has been similar where I am so I will definitely use these looks as inspiration. Also, of course I start to fall in love with the ES moss silk right when she closes up. Keeping my fingers crossed for a moss silk Georgia when ES returns!
Love your outfits! They look so cute and comfy. x

You look great! CoVid not affecting your size. Like your outfits, they are perfect for spring. Take care of yourself. I heard today, if we normally do one thing a day for our mental health we should now do 3.
I feel better already. Have a good one.
