brunch.
What a wonderful way to start a Monday.
The BF is on leave from work for 2 glorious weeks.
We had friends in town who just got engaged, so we went for a wonderful monday madness treat.
I swear everyone around me is either getting engaged. married. or having babies. Do you guys feel the same?
We have been together for a.long.time so the time is yet to come...
But I swear ladies + gents are getting married younger & younger & everywhere I turn another friend has an announcement.
Super exciting, but I am starting to feel old :)
yay for these boots. I just can't get enough of them.
I hope you all had a stunning weekend.
xo.

Allie said...

It's true, I've got a handful of married friends. One about to get a divorce at 24, and another who just gave birth to her second daughter! Holy smokes! I've been with my boy for a while now, and I'm nowhere near marriage!

I can't even think about cohabitation either. But that's just me.

Beautiful outfit, love the jacket.

Amy Williams said...

This outfit looks SO great on you! Love the blend of colours, and love the boots too.

escritora said...

Billie Jean said...

haha, I have the same, sometimes I feel really old. and it's true, people marry quite young. hmm, too bad, because I think there so much more in this world than at young age getting married...

love your look! again :)!

Mode Junkie said...

your time will come. :) i know the feeling. as i was pregnant, i was only seeing pregnant women everywhere. which is weird because before i even haven't noticed them. :)
your outfit is so simple and amazing, makes me wanna scream.

Kenza said...

Pretty Lisa, i definitely agree with you !
One day, it will be us !

I love the simplicity of your outfit, you're very elegant.

FASHION CHALET said...

You just get more stylish with each post, don't you ??? ♥

I love the jacket & bandage skirt combo here!! Perfect. xxx

I hope you get the MK & Ash book for the Holidays. ;) I hope I get the Kate Moss one...... <3

Andy said...

You look amazing.
Lisa god you're gorgeous!
I really love your style btw :-)
I hope it was enough hot here to wear that kind of stunning outfits !

You look really young, why do you think that you're getting older ?! :-D

Cupcakes and Cashmere said...

i hate to sound repetitive, but i think this is my favorite outfit yet! slicked back hair is so hard to pull off (i swear i look like a boy), but you look gorgeous!

rachel said...

you look stunning, as always!
yes, and I do feel the same! My friends, too, are getting engaged and having babies. I can't wait to get to the point in my life where I'd be ready for that, right now I'm just working towards establishing a career :)

Mimi said...

Oh Lisa I want your jacket for christmas!

makemoremistakes said...

You are so... fierce! I feel lame saying that, like a super gay guy, or like Christian from Project Runway...haha. Anyway, you look fabulous, and I have to say that (happily) not many of my friends etc are getting married yet...but there are a few girls who I went to high school with who are married, which actually grosses me out- we're so young still!

Sorry for rambling wildly. Love to you! And I hope you are spectacular!

Petra said...

Sounds like you had a wonderful day! Monday morning brunch sounds perfect.

I adore your shirt! It is so stunning: the colour, the fit, everything! It looks so perfect with the grey and black. Love the boots, they look amazing!

None of my friends have started to get married yet... although i do have some who will no doubt be doing so in the future! aww.

Hope the rest of your day went wonderfully! xx

Yvonne said...

What is Reality Anyway? said...

you seriously are a supermodel...beyond beautiful...and its all natural. and yes, everyone is getting hitched here too. there is no rush, you are only as old as you feel...and according to quantum physics, there is no such thing as past or future...it all happens in the now. so i just decided to stop aging all together :)

******* THANKS LOVES. I love hearing your viewpoints about marriage. watch the BF will go out and propose this year ;)...
YOU GUYS SERIOUSLY ROCK MY WORLD.

Beautiful! I missed your gorgeous face while I was away...you look so clean and fresh and naturally stunning. And the jacket is fabulous too, obviously.

And yes, I know exactly what you mean about everyone around you doing the marriage/babies/etc. thing. I don't really think about it much though....be here now is my philosophy :)

Hope you're having a great one. The best kind of energy there is coming your way from Toronto...

Vintage Lollipops said...

This is definitely model material... the entirety of it is just stunning! As always...

Champagne said...

My friend better not even think about getting married yet. I'm the oldest of my friends, I'm just 20, so the whole thought of settle down is far from our minds.

geri hirsch said...

do you model?? love the jacket!!

Jen (MahaloFashion) said...

You have amazing style, love the jacket!!

The Stylish Wanderer said...

LOVING IT! SO MUCH the pictures are phenomenol!

CHRISELLE LIM said...

i know how that feels. I feel like everyone around me is getting married as well! But i learned to go with the flow and never force things. :)

lovely pictures. I loveeeeeeeeeee your leather jacket. i have an obsession with leather jackets. where is it from?

-chriselle

Marian said...

Lisa love

I love how beautiful you are. Amazing.

Is it possible that you're not signed for any modeling agency yet, or are you?

And once again you have made these simple and lovely pieces look so covetable together.

What a wonderful way to start the week, brunch. I start every Monday at 07.00 in the morning. So hard for a sleepy head like me.

Yes! Everyone seems to be getting married and engaged here too. My best friend is married already(!) It's true it makes me feel a bit old, ha ha..

Have a lovely week bella

loveology said...

Oh my God, this is...
i have no words.
You are too beautiful.

♥ Marta ♥ said...

Hey you...
You look stunning ...I love hos simple yet to chic this entire outfit is - perfection :)
As for the marriage thing... I sometimes do not understand why people rush to get married to young,I mean if you love someone you don't need to prove it by marrying them. To me the idea of marriage seems so foreign for now... lol

Fashion Is Poison said...

hey babe! i know what you mean about the engagements...growing up is scary isn't it! i remember when i was 10 and had my life all planned out. i'd be married by 22, have kids by 24. so on and so forth. haha. i'm running late!

great boots. you look superrrr tall.

Igor+andré said...

Lovely Blog!
i really like it.
:)

Susanna-Cole King said...

Oh dear, I started at your outfit for like 10 minutes, and I'm STILL speechless! I don't know how you do it! Really, simple pieces here, but gosh, they way you combined them, the simple pieces totally make a statement! I especially love the color combination again, that color of shirt and skirt with the black is not a color scheme I usually see, and I think that's what makes your outfit even more exciting! I love when people get creative with colors, even if those colors are more basic neutral colors, doesn't mean they have to be boring! :D

Anyway, none of my friends have gotten married or had any kids yet... kind of glad, since a lot of my friends are still in or just out of highschool! :P I think they should give it some time! ;)

And oh please, I'd like to remind you this little body of water between Africa and the U.S., so it's going to mighty hard to come over here and delete my folder! Good luck with that though! hehe :P

Oh well I must say if I had 23 hour flights vs. like 3-5 hour flights or somewhere around there, probably wouldn't like flying quite as much! ;)

Anyway thanks for the comment and all your uber sweetness! Hope you're having a lovely week so far! <3

xoxo,
S-C
