Hailey Bieber Gives Us Fresh Summer Vibes in Hot Pink

One of the reasons Hailey Bieber continues to inspire me with her outfits is because of the way she mixes proportions. She never shies away from an oversized jacket and crop top combo.

Even when she wears short shorts, she usually balances the look with a giant hoodie and sneakers. Her vibe is always chic and laid back.

Hailey wore an oversized Fear Of God denim jacket with elastic waist in Miami recently. Her white bag is the latest Balenciaga XS lizard effect shoulder bag, while her pink bow sandals and hot pink earrings are also from the brand. I’m not sure who the tank is from but I feel like any Hanes ribbed tank will do, just grab a pair of scissors and crop it yourself.

Why I Stopped Buying Fast Fashion

nathalie martin, white oversized balenciaga small logo tshirt, magenta pink xxs everday tote, button fly skinny jeans, Alexander Wang Kennah boots, woahstyle.com, street style_0211.jpg

Last year I wrote an article called The Truth About Fast Fashion after seeing a CBC documentary on how it impacts our planet. The environment is something I’m very passionate about. I’m not perfect by any means but I try to do my part. I even switched to a vegetarian diet after learning about how much energy and resources it takes to produce a single serving of meat. I digress. This is not that type of post.

These days I'm finding it more difficult to get behind fast fashion. Both Geoff and I have experienced too many seams ripping and things shrinking recently. Quality is at a decline and fast fashion production is at an all-time high. Just look at this post from Business of Fashion about H&M's increased inventory vs. their declining profits. Everything seems to be made of polyester or nylon these days and did you know that they can take up to 200 years to decompose? Scary stuff.

When shopping for new clothes my intention is to invest in pieces that I’ll enjoy for years to come. Throwing stuff out or donating them after a couple of washes doesn’t sit well with me, which is why I’ve started to invest in a higher-end wardrobe. But even still, plenty of designers still use synthetic fabrics so know your brands and most importantly, know what your money is ultimately supporting. After all, we all have a responsibility to do our part.

A Look Into My Balenciaga Filled Closet

Nathalie Martin, Balenciaga green chain scarf, Balenciaga XXS everyday tote, logo shirt, green BB slingback mules, blogger closet, woahstyle.com 3.JPG

When it comes to shopping I try to stick to my rule of thumb, buy what you love. Sure, some purchases can be impractical at times - ie; pink glitter Saint Laurent boots or green satin Balenciaga flats, but fashion is all about feeling good and nothing makes me feel more like myself than a statement shoe.

nathalie martin - saint laurent paris no smoking leather moto jacket - woahstyle.com.jpg

For clothes I always keep things pretty basic but with a twist. A classic leather moto jacket from Saint Laurent with a no smoking illustration on the back. An oversized button up shirt that says BALENCIAGA in graphic letters paired with cotton shorts from H&M’s mens section. It’s totally impractical for some but these pieces couldn’t be closer to my personal style as I’ve always been drawn to bold, graphic design.

Some things are worth paying full price. I saw this green mini Loewe Puzzle bag at the SSense Montreal flagship store and it was love at first sight. The biker wallet on a chain from New York designer Kara is a newer addition.

I clearly have a think for this florescent green shade. The easiest way to wear it is with accessories and just adding a pop of colour to an otherwise basic outfit.

Why The Mustang GT Is THE Car for Date Night

I’ve been very fortunate over the past few years working together with Nathalie to create content and help bring inspiration and knowledge to people wanting to know more on fashion, beauty and lifestyle. Nathalie is the driving force behind WoahStyle but I am the ever present husband behind the scenes helping to bring you her vision.

Mustang GT looking all sleek at dusk.

Occasionally though, she will surprise me with the “fun stuff”. And by fun stuff, I mean perks of the job like cars, getaways or date nights out that we can share together. That’s why when she surprised me with a 2019 GT Premium Convertible Mustang for the weekend to cruise around in, hit up our favourite restaurants and be tourists in our own town, I nearly lost my shit. So on this occasion she has asked me to step out from behind the lens and write my first ever article on my thoughts from the weekend, and I am more than happy to do so.

Wearing an oversized Madewell denim jacket.

 We couldn’t have asked for a nicer weekend to have a convertible, and so we totally made full use of it by driving with the top down! There is something intangible yet exhilarating about driving with no barrier between you and the outside world that just connects you more to the drive rather than the destination. And so we took the long way around or decided to veer off course when we might have seen something that caught our interest.

Our destination this particular weekend was the Dundas area because it sits nestled right underneath the Niagara escarpment where we have found good food and fun shops. And then right nearby are many parks and trails with multiple waterfalls and lookout points for you to explore.

For dinner, we went to The French in a nearby upscale historic district of Hamilton, and ordered what felt like everything on the menu. We started with the beet & chevre salad, then for the mains Nathalie had the vegetable paella, I had the salmon and we shared a gnocchi dish. Finally, for desert we shared a vanilla crème brûlée and their “opera cake” which consists of almonds, coffee, chocolate and blackberry. Such a fun dinner.

 


FORD MUSTANG GT 2019


The car itself is crazy, and in my opinion is a beast for the price. At just over $50k, you are getting a 5 litre, 460hp, 420 ft. lb torque automobile, with a 10-speed select shift automatic transmission. This is not your standard automobile!

It looks as bad ass as it sounds too with 18” alloy wheels, optional leather interior, and a new 12” LDC digital instrument cluster with ambient lighting and display called MyColour, which lets you take control of everything you see. Then at night there’s even a mustang projected on the ground, like a kind of welcome mat for your home as you unlock and enter the car. For the drive, there’s also a new lane keeping system included to help alert you if you go out of your lane.

My only wish would have been to drive a standard transmission, as I believe that this is how any true sports car should be driven. Despite this, I was still able to have fun using the paddle shifters in sport mode which helped me quench my desire for some manual control.

One recommendation I have would be for Ford to make the key fob a bit smaller. It was annoyingly large and heavy compared to the key fobs I’m used to carrying. When paired with my already large janitor size key ring, it made it all but impossible to carry in my pocket. Therefore, I found myself either carrying the keys in my hands or giving them to Nathalie to put in her purse, which I don’t think she liked though because she claimed it was wreaking her Balenciaga. A small price to pay for driving a Mustang GT I think!

In general, I have to say that I have never been a muscle car kind of guy, but this car made me change my tune. It’s a comfortable and smooth ride, but has the power of a true muscle car which is the best of both luxury and sport. The engine noise is melodic yet ominous with its deep gurgling rumble as if ready to take off at a moment’s notice.

Nathalie and Geoff.

 All in all, it was a great weekend. The Ford GT forced our inner explorer to come out, by being a tourist in our own city. It’s certainly a statement car, from its looks, to its sound, to its power, and surely got us noticed everywhere we went and I can’t say that I minded the attention. After returning the car, I totally forgot how high I typically sit in my SUV and it made me wish I was back MY Mustang GT! Please give me my Mustang back!

The Statement Bag You Didn’t Know You Needed

nathalie martin - Kara Biker Wallet on a chain, leather pants, madewell oversized denim jacket, black bodysuit, birkenstocks, street style, woahstyle.com_0166.jpg

Okay, I’m sorry for starting of a post by saying you need something because after all, it’s just a bag so do you actually need it? No.

I was on a waitlist for the biker wallet by NYC designer Kara for a few weeks before I actually got my hands on on it. It makes just enough of a statement on even the simplest outfits.

Mind you it only fits my debit, credit and ID cards and that’s just about it. No room for lipstick, my keys, let alone my iPhone XS Max but that doesn’t bother me one bit.

Only the white remains available on ssense.com but Kara’s online shop still seems to have the black in stock. Don’t wait to long though because I have a feeling these are gonna sell out.

8. She probably put this outfit together in two seconds which just shows us that getting dressed doesn’t require a lot of thought. Have fun and go with the flow.

9. This Nanushka knitted suit is now sold out but I’ve linked some similar pieces below.

11. Out of sweatpants and wearing the chicest oversized dress blazer.

12. Love how she paired these vinyl pants with a pair of Vans. It’s a great way to balance a piece that could otherwise look too hardcore for daytime.

 
27 OF The Best Hailey Bieber Outfits (Hailey Baldwin Style) 15.jpg

13. Here she rocks a yellow sweatsuit with black Yeezy boots. Never would have thought this outfit would work together so well but that’s the thing about Hailey’s personal style and a lesson for us all, if you’re feeling it, you can rock it.

 
27 OF The Best Hailey Bieber Outfits (Hailey Baldwin Style) 14.jpg

14. Simple white jeans and a black sweatshirt but again worn two sizes too big and looking amazing. She paired the look with Balenciaga’s Track 2 sneakers in blue and pink to add a pop of colour.

 
27 OF The Best Hailey Bieber Outfits (Hailey Baldwin Style) 18.jpg

15. I’ve seen variations of this outfit over and over again - camel coat, all black outfit. Hailey’s take feels very much her own when worn with Off White Sneakers and her signature gold hoops.

 
27 OF The Best Hailey Bieber Outfits (Hailey Baldwin Style) 25.jpg

16. A departure form her usual urban inspired, model-off duty look and more dressed up with neon green Balenciaga heels and an oatmeal coloured blazer. Instead of reaching for a feminine handbag, she opted for a simple nylon pouch from Balenciaga’s mens collection.

 
27 OF The Best Hailey Bieber Outfits (Hailey Baldwin Style) 23.jpg

17. This neon yellow dress is from New York designer Matthew Adams Dolan and of course is sold out. Hailey, give me a call if you ever want to get rid of it okay? I’ll buy it off you girl!

 
27 OF The Best Hailey Bieber Outfits (Hailey Baldwin Style) 21.jpg

18. Looks like she borrowed the Beebs Champion jacket because it’s so oversized but man does it look good. Here she balanced the casual look with a croc Saint Laurent bag and white Balenciaga baseball hat. OBSESSED.
