Purple turtleneck tunic // Grey knit dress //
Boho dress // Chambray embroidered dress // Striped collar dress
Hello friends! Today I have an extra special Weekly Pretties. I recently participated in The Blended Blog‘s Christmas in July gift exchange. In mid-July, I got a note with the tracking information for my gift. Come to find out, Customs is not a fan of Deena from Shoes to Shiraz sending me something. It sat at the border, and sat, and sat some more. Deena finally gave up and recalled the package and moved on to Plan B. The next day, I got a gift card to Simon’s, a Canadian retailer. I’ve heard all the Canadian TBB’ers talk about Simon’s, but hadn’t really investigated it. Well, now I had a reason and it didn’t disappoint. The problem was trying to figure out what to order! I finally picked out two things, the purple knit tunic and grey dress pictured above.
Shipping to the US was $10, so I figured I better make it worth my while and order at least two things 🙂 I’m anxiously awaiting for the items to arrive, and I’m sure you will see them on Puppies & Pretties soon. Deena obviously knew they key to my heart, shopping. Since I had to do some more window shopping, I pulled a few more pretty dresses that you can get from Simons. Can all of these just show up in my closet please?
Thankfully, my shipping experience to Canada went off without a hitch. Go see what I gave to Abbie at Grumbling Grace .

It really is! I can’t wait to wear it 🙂
Oh Simons….glad you could find something that is so very wonderfully you!
Oh, I found many things, the tough thing was narrowing it down!
Yay! LOVE LOVE LOVE Simon’s!
It is pretty awesome!
So excited you got to shop at Simon’s. I always love everything Deena gets from there. I need to check them out!
You totally should!
Yay! Hey $10 shipping isn’t too bad! Deena always gets the best stuff from there…I think I might have to check it out!
I was kind of surprised shipping was only $10 too. Just have to buy a few things to make it worth it 🙂
Wow, $10 is great for shipping! I had the worst time with my gift to Lana (still not there) so I know the shipping problems. Darn Mail. Can you believe I’m Canadian and never shopped here – I need to!
I feel like you need to as well! You wouldn’t even have to worry about that $10 shipping charge 🙂
Never heard of this site but I am obsessed with the gray tunic! Can’t wait to check out their stuff!
It is kind of dangerous 🙂 I got my order now and the grey dress is fantastic! Can’t wait to wear it with boots in a month or so.
That’s terrible that the mail didn’t go through! Love your picks and I can’t wait to see you style them!
Darn that mail! But the plan B turned out pretty well 🙂
What a fun plan B! I really like what you got. The pieces look nice and cozy and make me think of Canada (because it’s always cold, right?? haha, just kidding)!
haha, it is totally cold there all the time. They are way up north eh?
I’m super excited to see what you got and how much you LOVE it!!!! LOVE the pieces you picked, so super cute and so you!
