4 Affordable Neutral Outfits To Wear Right Now
It’s been one hell of a week so far. Parts of Toronto back in lockdown and close friends and family are now out of work just around the holidays. It’s stressful, to say the least, and I’m feeling sad and overwhelmed by the state of everything right now.
Yes, there's a pandemic and we have to control the spread, absolutely. However there has to be a better solution other than shutting down businesses and putting people out of work.
I digress.
This blog has always been light-hearted but these days many of us feeling anything but.
Anyway, this morning I was on Pinterest trying to distract myself for a bit when I realized that my eyes kept landing on photos of neutral fashions.
There's something so calming about a neutral color palette and maybe that's what I needed to calm my senses at that exact moment.
Even as I sit at my computer, writing this post, I'm wearing a camel colored cardigan from Revolve paired with a white t-shirt. Simple, clean, relaxing.
Never under estimate the power of fashion.
Below you'll find some of my favourite outfit ideas from Pinterest as well as similar pieces to shop if you want to get the look.
Happy shopping and stay safe everyone. And remember, it's okay to feel like shit right now. Reach out to a friend and talk it out. We're all in this together.

The Ultimate Gift Guide For Plant Enthusiasts
The plant community is thriving in 2020 mainly due to the fact we're all spending more time at home.
For me anyway, I can't think of a more therapeutic activity (okay, other than meditation) than looking after my plants. It's a rewarding hobby where I'm constantly learning about each plant variety and their different levels of care.
In fact, my appreciation for plants has grown so much this year that I launched an online plant shop. If you haven't already, make sure you check me out on Etsy, at WoahPlants.
And with that, WoahStyle's first gift guide this year is dedicated to the plant person in your life.
Below you'll find an array of gifts and stocking stuffers, from $8 - $230 that plant enthusiasts will enjoy.
Happy gift giving!
GIFT GUIDE FOR THE PLANT ENTHUSIAST
Monstera Species Unisex T-shirt, Woah Plants $50
This Monstera species t-shirt is the first piece of clothing on my plant shop, WoahPlants, and is sure to be a hit with plant enthusiasts or just fashion enthusiasts in general. I had my favourite Saint Laurent and Balenciaga pieces in mind when I designed this shirt and approached Toronto tattoo artist German Shible (aka, brother) with the idea.
The t-shirt features an original illustration of ten monstera species from common, uncommon, to rare: Monstera Deliciosa, Monstera Siltepecana, Monstera Thai Constellation, Monstera Dubia, Monstera sp. Peru, Monstera Obliqua, Monstera Pinnatipartita, Monstera Deliciosa Variegata, Monstera Adansonii, and Monstera Esqueleto.
Tall Stacking Planter Pot, Urban Outfitters $114
This minimalist pot from Areaware feels like a work of art with its curvy stacked shape. The design discretely integrates both a planter and saucer into one form. Lift out the bottom ring to reveal a hidden saucer.
Granted, it's expensive for a planter pot so this particular piece is for the person who appreciates home decor and likes to burn bougie candles if you catch my drift.
An Entertaining Story by India Hicks, Indigo $67.50
While technically note a plant book, and actually a book on the fine art of entertaining, the latest release from India Hicks features plenty of jaw-dropping photos from the author's Bahamas estate. Island living means that beautiful tropical plants play a huge role in bringing her dinner parties to life (just look at the cover). Plant enthusiasts will be inclined to step up their dining room with plenty of plants after reading this book.
Plant Tribe book by Igor Josifovic & Judith de Graeff, Amazon $37
If the person you're gifting to is into home decor then this book might be their jam. Featuring stories from others in the plant community as well as beautiful photos of their homes, this book is jam-packed with inspiration on how to display indoor plants.
New Plant Parent by Darryl Cheng, Amazon $32
This book by Toronto-based author, Darryl Cheng, dives into the science of plants and plant care from lighting to watering, nutrients, and propagation. I highly recommend this book to all plant enthusiasts, whether blessed with a green thumb or not. Even for someone such as myself who grew up around plants and started collecting plants over a decade ago, I find this book to be a wealth of knowledge and has helped me understand plant care on a broader level.
Paddywax PARKS Collection Candles, Amazon $41
If the plant person in your life also likes candles, this might be the gift for them. Inspired by seven National Parks in the U.S., Paddywax has captured the essence of each park with its own unique scent featuring- Yosemite, Olympic, Acadia, Great Smoky Mountains, Glacier, Yellowstone, and Grand Canyon.
Best of all, Paddywax supports the National Parks Foundation with a minimum donation of $25,000 to help protect more than 84 million acres of national parks through conservation and preservation.
Once the candle is done, the vessel can be cleaned out and reused as a planter pot. Perfect.
Monstera Wooden Serving Board, Urban Outfitters $64
This wooden serving board in the shape of Monstera Deliciosa leaf makes an excellent gift for those who love to cook and entertain. The stem of this serving board is actually a knife, making it easy to put together a spread of cheese and crackers.
6.75” Planter Pot with Stand, H&M $30
This matte black planter pot from H&M is as affordable as it is chic and comes with a sleek stand. It's excellent for displaying trees like fiddle leaf figs or rubber tree plants.
Pruning Scissors, Amazon $22
Pruning shears are a must in every plant collector's toolbox but the truth is, not all of them aesthetic enough to keep on display. These black stainless steel pruning scissors are precise and feature a fine tip - perfect for pruning bonsai trees. They also fit into dense foliage or hard to reach foliage without damaging plants.
Dr. Meter Light Meter, Amazon $56
This nifty gadget is a digital illuminance/light meter that can come in very handy when determining proper placement for indoor plants. As we all know, plants need light to survive, and sometimes we think our indoor plants are receiving plenty of ample natural sunlight when they might not be. This light meter is the perfect thing to help find the right spot for our plants so they can thrive and grow, grow, grow.
Feit Electric Full Spectrum Grow Light, Amazon $60
These LED grow lights by Feit Electric happen to be a favourite of mine (trust me, I have five of them). They come with a variety of fasteners to help you mount them on either your bookshelf, ceiling, or Ikea glass cabinet (aka, makeshift greenhouse). They provide plants with a full spectrum of light that they need to keep thriving in the winter. Best of all, they don’t run very hot.
TaoTronics Cool Mist Humidifier, Amazon $60
Some tropical plants thrive in high humidity conditions. Depending on where in the world you're located, high humidity can sometimes be a challenge, especially during the winter months. That's why many collectors of tropical plants will run a humidifier for their plants a couple of hours a day. If the person you're gifting to doesn't already have one, this could be a nifty gift for them.
Milsbo Glass Cabinet, IKEA $229
This IKEA glass cabinet creates an ideal condition for plants and mimics that of a greenhouse - excellent for people who collect rare plants. If the budget allows, include a couple of grow lights with this gift, and the person receiving it will be over the moon.
10 Tier Wooden Plant Stand, Wayfair $187
If an Ikea glass cabinet isn't their thing, perhaps this multi-tier plant stand is. Plants usually look better when grouped together making this gift like a functional piece of decor.
STOCKING STUFFERS UNDER $15
Tradescentia Nanouk 2.5” Live Plant, Woah Plants $10
Vattenkrasse Watering Can, IKEA $15
Moisture Meter, Amazon $15
2.5” Small Planter Pot, Woah Plants $8
Plant Identification Tags, Amazon $12

How to Create a Minimalist Bookshelf
The bookshelf in my living room has been in desperate need of a makeover for some time now.
Slowly over time, it had turned into a dumping ground for all of my random nicknacks and as you can see from the before picture below, it was looking very disorganized and unappealing.
Just like when I need outfit inspiration, I jumped onto Pinterest (@woahstyle) in search of "minimal bookshelf decor ideas" and started putting together a mood board.
Based on the type of photos I was drawn to, I knew I had to scale back the amount of stuff on the shelves in order to achieve a minimal aesthetic.
I had also chosen a black and white color palette which meant I had to scale back color.
This was going to be hard considering, 1) how much stuff I have, and 2) that I'm inherently not a minimalistic type of person.
BEFORE
As you can see from the before photo, I already have a lot of stuff so my goal was to work with what I have.
A couple of things I should mention - in this redecorating challenge, I didn't want to go out and unnecessarily buy anything new.
2020 has been my low-buy year and my goal has been to shop more mindfully. It started with my closet but I've since applied the principal to every aspect of my life.
With that in mind, I went around each room of my house and gathered up as many black and white accessories that I could find and started working on my minimal, Scandinavian inspired bookshelf.
Here's how I did it.
STARTING OVER
HOW TO DECORATE A SCANDINAVIAN INSPIRED BOOKSHELF
MAKE A MOODBOARD - It's no secret that Pinterest is my favorite place to gather inspiration. I pay attention to the commonalities in the types of images that I'm pinning so I can incorporate them into my own space. For my bookshelf, I was drawn to a clean and minimal aesthetic in a monochrome color palette.
START FRESH - With my mood board in tow, the next step would be to tackle the cluttered bookshelf. I started by removing everything, including wall art. This gave me a chance to curate what items would now be living on the shelves, but also to clean and dust.
CREATE A DESIGNATED YES AND NO PILE - When removing everything off the shelf I sorted items into yes and no piles. Colorful items automatically went into the no pile, while all black, white, and neutral decor went into the yes pile.
START DECORATING - Working on one shelf at a time, I laid down a couple of statement pieces and kept the surrounding pieces pretty neutral. I also referred to my mood board along the way, which I found to be incredibly helpful.
STEP BACK & ASSESS - The first few shelves came together surprisingly easily but then I got stuck on the middle shelves. I stepped away from everything and came back to it the next day with a fresh set of eyes, and after tackling it for another hour I realized that I didn't have anything in my collection to create the visual interest I was after. With that, I headed over to Indigo with a budget in mind and ended up finding a couple of vessels and candleholders with interesting shapes (in my monochromatic color palette of course), and go figure, those pieces brought everything together.
Overall I love the finished look of my bookshelf and even Geoff mentioned that he's digging the minimal decor.
The cohesive black and white color gives the space a more sophisticated air and overall elevates the look of our living room.
With that done, I think I'm ready to tackle the next project. Decorating for Christmas!

Menswear Inspired Outfit
Video by Geoff Martin
Menswear-inspired doesn’t have to dress like one of the guys. For me, it’s about adapting pieces and making my own.
Take, for example, the wool trousers featured in this post.
On their own, they read as business casual, however when paired with high-top sneakers they take on a more casual look that's slightly masculine.
And when a plain white t-shirt and black leather moto jacket is added to the mix, suddenly the outfit leans a little more towards menswear.
I accessorized with my favorite Balenciaga oversized scarf and classic Givenchy bag and that’s pretty much it.
Simple and borrowed from the boys.

Beauty Edit: 10 Winter Skincare Must-Haves
For myself anyway, I use a lot of the same products that I use year-round however, I've started adding a few more exfoliators to my routine to keep the dry skin away and to keep skin looking fresh.
I also started incorporating a rich oil-based serum into my routine which happens to have only two ingredients - vitamin E and oat oil (it's awesome for hydrating and nourishing skin).
Otherwise - it's more or less the same but really, I find there to be something comforting about taking that extra effort to look after my skin during the cold months.
Below you'll find my top 10 skincare products to get your skin winter-ready. Oh - and in case you're wondering, my skin type is a combination (oily T zone and normal cheeks) and has a tendency to be dehydrated as well.

HERBIVORE Prism 12% AHA + 3% BHA Exfoliating Glow Serum
This lightweight exfoliating serum is infused with a blend of 12% AHA to target dull and uneven texture, and 3% BHA to clarify and minimize the appearance of pores. It's gentle enough to use up to five days a week will reveal smooth and glowing skin. Just make sure to SPF the following morning to protect your skin as it is a liquid exfoliator.
SULWHASOO Essentials Kit
Korean skincare brand Sulhwasoo is revered for its ultimate skin solutions and holistic beauty. Their skincare is hydrating and feel luxurious on the skin and perfect for winter. My favourites are the First Care Activating Serum, Essential Balancing Emulsion, and Essential Firming Cream, but you’re better off getting the Essentials Kit and trying it out for yourself. PS - all of the ginseng based products in the kit are suitable for all skin types.
CONSONANT Vitamin E + Oat Serum
As someone with combination skin, I've become very careful about the type of products I put on my face. This rich serum from Consonant only contains two ingredients: vitamin E provides antioxidants, and oat oil hydrates and soothes. It targets dullness and uneven texture and is everything you need for your wintertime skincare routine.
Kiehl's Daily Refining Milk-Peel Toner
If your skin is feeling dull from the cold dry air, then you might want to step up your exfoliating game. This liquid exfoliator from Kiehl’s is gentle enough to use twice daily, which means that soft, glowing skin is possible during the winter months. Lipohydroxy acid exfoliates while emollients and almond milk nourish the skin.
HERBIVORE Rose Quartz Gua Sha
Honestly, I thought long and hard before jumping on the Gua Sha train because a) I already have a facial roller, and b) I’m in the middle of decluttering my house so buying more stuff is the last thing I need. However, the thought of relaxing on my couch on a cold winter day, watching Netflix, and while getting a Gua Sha facial massage just sounded like heaven. And it is.
This rose quartz Gua Sha stimulates circulation to help relieve facial tension and reduce the appearance of puffiness. It also promotes lymphatic drainage to improve the appearance of elasticity of the skin and aids the absorption of skincare products on the skin's surface.
I’m sure a facial roller does more or less the same but I love how the cool rose quartz feels on my skin.
KIEHL’S Ultra Facial Cream
I love a rich moisturizing cream that doesn't leave my skin feeling greasy and weighed down. If you have oily/combo skin and suffer from milia, like me, then you know that rich and heavy creams are a big no-no. This is why I'll always go back to Kiehl's Ultra Facial Cream because I get the hydration my skin needs without having my pores clogged.
GLOW RECIPE Papaya Sorbet Enzyme Cleansing Balm
If you’re like me and wear waterproof mascara, then you know that an oil-based eye makeup remover is the only thing getting that ish off. This is exactly why I was surprised to learn that Glow Recipe’s Papaya Sorbet Enzyme Cleansing Balm melts away all traces of waterproof makeup. I use it as the first step in my double cleanse routine and I just love how it rinses away clean with water.
AVENÉ Eau Thermale
This soothing and calming thermal water is everything! I use it to add a boost of hydration to my skin - either right after washing my face before any serums or toners, while other times I’ll use it as the last step in my skincare routine. Trust me when I say everyone needs this thermal water in their skincare routine - no matter how many steps said routine might have.
BITE BEAUTY Agave + Intensive Lip Mask
I keep this Bite Beauty Classic on my nightstand table at all times because it’s the only lip product that actually hydrates my lips overnight. It contains agave nectar to help soothe and nurture and mangosteen extract, a tropical fruit known for being rich in antioxidants.
CONSONANT Cooling Face Globes
These round cooling globes help minimize puffiness all while receiving a facial massage. Just pop them in the fridge overnight and the next morning, roll them over the contours of the face and neck after your skincare routine. PRO TIP: Add a couple of drops of the Vitamin E + Oat Serum by Consonant first to help the globes smoothly glide over the face.

YSL LIBRE Eau de Parfum Intense
I’m declaring 2020 the year of fragrance because I’ve either bought or obtained (through PR) more scents this year than in recent memory.
In some strange way, I blame covid for this because scents have been my way of differentiating all of the days spent in lockdown and adding a bit more excitement to my day.
Between candles, perfumes, essential oils, incense, and room sprays, it's safe to say that I've probably bought as many fragrances this year as I have house plants. So basically, a lot.
The latest addition to my collection is YSL LIBRE Eau de Parfum Intense.
It's the second release from Libre and as the name implies, is more intense and sultry.
YSL LIBRE Eau de Parfum Intense is a warm floral scent with notes of Lavender Essence, Orchid Accord, Vanilla.
Different from the original YSL Libre, YSL LIBRE Eau de Parfum Intense is floral, creamy, spicy with a slight smokiness.
"The captivating, sensual scent of orchid burns through the melting floral heart of LIBRE Intense, matching the honeyed facets of burnt orange blossom, smooth vanilla, and glowing amber accord built around grisalva—a classic ambergris note."
If you're like me and you love a warm and spicy scent this time of year, make sure to check out YSL LIBRE Eau de Parfum Intense.
It’s perfect for date night or if you’re just the kind of person who loves to switch up their scents every season.
FRAGRANCE TIP: When my favorite scents aren't available in a candle, I'll spray the fragrance around the room or on my curtains. It helps me enjoy the scent in a different way that brings me joy.

Beauty Edit: 10 Warm and Luxurious Products To Buy Right Now
As we head into November, my needs in skincare and beauty are shifting towards creamier, warmer, and more luscious feeling products.
My skin has been dehydrated and I’m finding myself reaching for emollient creams and hydrating serums.
With makeup, I’m layering rosy cheeks with a tinted lip for that healthy, “I just took a walk in the woods” look.
At home, I’ve been lighting candles almost daily to set the tone for fall.
And with my fragrance, I’m craving warmer notes like sandalwood and bergamot.
In this post, you’ll find ten beauty products that I’ve been reaching for often.
They’re products that make me feel cozy and warm and have me embracing the chilly fall weather.

SULWHASOO First Care Activating Serum - Limited Edition Pink Lantern
I’ve gone through many bottles of Sulwhasoo’s First Care Activating Serum and I adore this product just as much today when I first discovered it years ago. This serum addresses the 5 signs of skin aging™, when resilience, vitality, nourishment, clarity, and elasticity lose balance. Apply a couple of pumps into the palms to warm up the product and then apply to the face and neck.
BYREDO Bohemia Candle
If you like unique woody scents, I highly recommend Byredo’s Bohemia candle. This home fragrance is a mishmash of scents that blends opoponax with rum, geranium with rosemary and labdanum, and vanilla with sandalwood and oak moss. Yum.
I love a good brow gel to set everything in place and the latest from BareMinerals is infused with a peptide serum that promotes healthier, stronger brows. It’s available in 3 shades, blonde, medium brown, and dark brown in addition to clear.
GUERLAIN Aqua Allegoria Orange Soleia
This fresh and citrus fragrance is the unexpected scent you didn’t know you needed for fall. Blood Orange, Bergamot and Woody Notes gives Guerlain’s Orange Soleia warmth and depth.
LA MER Eye Concentrate
Eye cream is a must any time of the year and for fall I’m completely smitten with La Mer’s hydrating formula on The Eye Concentrate. It helps brighten and reduce the appearance of wrinkles and under eye circles.
CHANEL Baume Essentiel Multi-Use Glow Stick
I love the look of hydrated, dewy skin and my favourite trick these days is to layer a bit of Chanel’s Multi-Use Glow Stick overtop of my blush. I creates a gorgeous glow and looks incredible on the eyes as well.
WESTMAN ATELIER Baby Cheeks Blush Stick
Clean beauty brand Westman Atelier makes a killer blush stick that’s easy to use and lasts all day. I love to layer it on just after my tinted moisturizer and then again once I’ve set my makeup with a bit of powder for that glow from within look.
We all love a good lip balm and this one from Guerlain is enriched with rose oil extract to hydrate and plump the look of lips. It comes in four flattering shades.
GLOW RECIPE Plum Plump™ Hyaluronic Acid Serum
My skincare just isn’t the same without a good serum, which is why I’m including another one on this list. Glow Recipe’s Plum Plump Hyaluronic Acid Serum leaves the skin feeling hydrated and plump. It has a gel like consistency that glides over the skin like silk. It also contains three antioxidant-rich plums (kakadu, illawarra, and burdekin) to hydrate, nourish, and rejuvenate skin‘s appearance.
GROWN ALCHEMIST Hand Cream
This non-greasy hand cream is scented with Vanilla and Orange Peel and comes in a handy pump that dispenses this luscious cream. I keep it by my night stand because the scent is warm and comforting, but also because I can’t fall asleep until my hands are moisturized.

Simple Fall Outfit
Photo by Geoff Martin
Considering how overwhelming and complicated the world feels right now, it’s good to take a step back and simplify things where we can.
Our closet is one of those places, and as superficial as it might be to talk about the importance of clothing during a worldwide pandemic, hear me out.
Wardrobe affects our psyche more than we might realize or even more than some of us care to admit. (Though I'm assuming not you because you're reading this post and scrolling through a fashion blog.)
I'm hoping if there's any good to come out of this year is our overall approach to fashion and just buying habits in general.
Hopefully, we can put the days of fashion fast and trend shopping in the past and move towards more sustainable buying habits.
Buy now, wear now, wear for years to come.
In this post, I'm wearing pieces that I've owned for a combined five years, and yes, that I still adore them.
I store them away in the off-seasons and bring them out when it's time.
I'm also wearing a new piece here, a black Maje pinstripe wool coat which I picked up recently at a sample sale.
It's timeless and classic yet cut in a modern way that suits my personal style.
I hope this post, and all of the fashion posts here on WoahStyle, inspire you to shop your own closet and come up with new outfit combinations that will excite you.
