Opelle

Like just about everyone, I have a bad habit of returning to the same spots time and time again to take photos. The “pink wall” of Vancouver (conveniently attached to a very tasty ice cream shop) is no exception, and it’s become a bit of a pilgrimage every time I’m back in my home town. My trip home over the holidays this past December was no exception, and despite the frightful weather conditions I managed to convince my dad to help me take some snaps in my new favourite outfit from CONVEY.

Dressed up in the a leather skort, iridescent pink loafers, a cashmere sweater and the softest white silk shirt of all time (similar here), I braved the wind and pouring rain to get these snaps because the outfit was just that cute. Horrible at the time? Definitely. Worth it in the end? I think yes…

The new year is all about new traditions, so we thought it was about time to introduce some fun new ideas here at RAOP. We fall for countless products and pieces over the course of a year, but some really stand out above and beyond others. Whether it be a beautifully handcrafted, locally-made backpack, or crazy glittery rings that match every manicure, we can’t help but pick favourites, and to bring 2015 to an end we decided it would be fun to get all of them together in one “best of 2015” styled lookbook.

Ladies, gentleman, kittens, and everyone in between- we give you our 2015 RAOP picks!
