The following giveaway is open to Canadians only.
For the last little while, I’ve been in a bit of a funk. Telling myself that once I lose those last 20 15 10 pounds, I’ll dress better; stand up straighter, and have more confidence.
And then I smacked myself upside the head.
I’m a beautiful girl! And regardless of the extra wobbly bits that came along with two amazing boys, there’s no excuse to cover up in oversized tees and yoga pants. Hello! Life is short!
Hence, I’ve embraced my new curves and made a concerted effort to dress appropriately for my body type. And, regardless of the junk in my trunk, I’m once again flaunting my body in skinny jeans, leggings, dresses and skirts. #liberating
So when Boa Apparel invited me to choose a few items from their online shop, I was tickled pink to say the least. If you’ve spent any time with me over the last few months, you’ll notice pretty quickly that their clothes are exactly my style. Here are just a few of the looks I’m currently loving:
Aren’t they SO me? And with most of their tops under $50, being stylish is definitely affordable too. In fact, I think I’ve short listed the Flapped Shoulder Jersey Wrap Top ($39.99) and Cowl Neck Long Vest W/Metallic ($59.99) as must-haves for my fall/winter wardrobe.
About Boa:
“In 2001, Boa opened its first doors in North Toronto, and has since then opened its second location in The Beaches, and a third location in Oakville. Started by twin sisters, Boa caters to the fashion forward, price conscious, and urban chic female. The store carries a wide selection of styles, from business casual, to party wear. Clothes that can start days, and easily work their way into nights.
But that’s not all. Boa has garnered a strong reputation for its funky, original accessories, including; earrings, necklaces, handbags, and belts. Rated as one of the “Best Places To Shop In Toronto” by Toronto Life Magazine. Boa staff has an abundance of product knowledge to serve you better.”
I had the pleasure of visiting Boa’s location in North Toronto last year, but I was pregnant at the time and therefore did not stay too long. I had mentally bookmarked it for a future visit, but alas, had all but forgotten about this magnificent store until I reconnected with them this year. If you do live near one of their store locations, be sure to pop by – you’ll find an ever greater selection of hot merchandise.
You should know:
– Boa is socially and environmentally conscious
– Orders over $50 ship for FREE within Canada
– Visit their blog for the latest in trends, hot picks, celebrity style and more
If you’re a fan of Boa, be sure to let me know why you love them!
