Best of 2013

As another year comes to a close and we look back at all the adventures we had, the laughs we shared and the fashion we enjoyed, 2013 definitely goes into the history books as one of the best years ever. This was the year Bouquet of Frocks was born!

Here's a look back at some of our favourite fashion moments of 2013.

                                                                

Go Fancy or Go Home

It was Bouquet of Frock's one month anniversary and Debbie and I decided to get dolled up for a proper celebration. I went with a tiered pink number that harkened to the Roaring 20s and, in the same spirit, I chopped off all my luscious locks to go with...

Just kidding! I attempted a faux bob for the first time (tutorial to come!)

Debbie, always the summer romantic, opted for a classic pleated skirt, white cowl neck top and a pair of wooden wedges. All that was missing was a tiny side braid woven into her wavy locks and we were ready to hit the town and toast to our first month!

We treated ourselves to a scrumptious meal at Boris Bistro, who have a lovely outdoor seating area. Unfortunately, we have no pictures of our dishes because we ate them all too fast. Oops.
                                                                      

The Forecast Calls for Strong Winds & High Fashion

Sometimes you just need a wind machine to get the full effect of an ensemble. Since we're not exactly Vogue Italia, we decided to take full advantage of the gale-like winds Montreal has been experiencing lately.

The call of the seafoam maxi dress was too much to ignore. The pleated skirt turned live sculpture against the breeze, pirouetting with the apple blossoms (highlight of all highlights in May). For equal parts contrast and compliment, we paired it with a luxurious printed mini dress whose centrepiece (the cape!) practically flew skyward at every gust.

Hold onto your frocks stylites, the forecast calls for strong winds and high fashion!
