Plum’s Perfect 10 is a collection of 10 pieces that we love. Our second selection, the Plum Crossover Cap Sleeve Top is one of our favorite pieces to wear because it is flattering for women of all shapes. The crossover style creates a V neck that elongates the upper body and draw attentions to the face. Fitted but not clingy, the fabric subtly defines the waist when it ruches on the side.

Dressier than a t-shirt, the top works to create a multitude of looks. As shown below in Orchid, the bright colour of the top pulls this work appropriate outfit together when tucked into the Grey Print Elastic Waist Pencil Skirt. We love to add a pop of colour with this top and this season, there is quite a variety of fall hues: Cranberry, Dijon, Moss, Navy, Sea Green and Orchid.  Also available in Black, Ivory and White, the crossover top is the perfect layering piece.

For weekend excursions, layer the crossover top under a Kersh Tabbed Sleeve Cardigan with your favorite skinny bottoms like the Mavi Alexa pants in Caramel paisley print above. A large printed scarf ties the look together. The Plum Crossover Cap Sleeve Top is priced at $39.

We give this top a perfect 10. How are you wearing it?

On the way to work this week, I had two compliments from strangers on how nice I looked in my dress. Don’t you just love mornings like that?

That morning, I put on a sleeveless eyelet dress that I had bought for a wedding I attended this summer and that I had only worn once. Over top, I wore a floral print cardigan and I slid on some silver bangles to make it appropriate for the office.  Later that evening, I took the cardigan off, switched my flat sandals to ones with a slight heel, and put on some dangly earrings, and I was fit to go to a social function I was invited to right after work. The dress easily took me from work to an evening event with just a slight change in accessories.

When I think about how little I fretted over what to wear that morning, I know that is the beauty of a dress.  During hot, summer weather, there is nothing like a dress in creating easy and stylish looks.

This week, we are offering an additional 20% off all spring/summer blouses and dresses in store so you will have more reason to add a few more dresses and blouses to your wardrobe.   Start planning your wardrobe for your mid-winter escape and get your packing done early! Offer ends next Tuesday.

As Rebekah said goodbye to Plum, I'd like to introduce myself as the new face behind the No Guru blog. My name is Lindsay and I am a lover of all things fashion. I think we'll get along well!

Here at Plum, for this Canada Day long weekend, we are celebrating all things Canadian, especially our favorite fashion brands designed and made with love right here at home.  Plum shoppers adore the fact that our in-house designs are made in local Vancouver factories. 

Manufacturing locally, we have a distinct advantage in ensuring the excellent fits that we are known for in our Simone and Tobias lines. Our designs are made in limited quantities so each style is unique, not mass-produced, but is still right on trend.

Second Jeans also designs and manufactures our favorite Yoga jeans in la belle province of Quebec. By keeping their manufacturing 3 hours from their headquarters in Montréal, they are able to respond immediately to new denim trends. Also, by producing locally, they need to meet Canadian environmental standards so their dyes and washes won't pollute our waterways.

This season, we are loving the ankle cuff skinny Yoga jean in red, blueberry and teal regularly $120, now on sale for $75 for 5 days only! Two other deals you will want to take advantage of are the high-rise skinny Yoga jean in white regularly $120, that is now priced at $89 and our high-rise skinny ankle length Yoga jean in black and classic blue regularly $110, that is now priced at $85.

Midnight Cactus, our lovely jewellery line, is proudly made by hand in Nova Scotia. Pat Manthorne, the designer, uses only sterling silver and semi-precious stones to create stylish earrings. This weekend, all jewellery, including Midnight Cactus, is 50% off for 5 days only!

Plus, there will be many more specials in store.

I hope to see you there!
