Wrap Yourself In The Luxury Of Miik ~ $100 GC Giveaway

in Lifestyle on 05/03/18

It’s time to bust out of your winter wear and wrap yourself in Miik!

A few months ago I was lucky enough to be introduced to Miik, this beautiful clothing line is now truly one of my favourite brands in the world.  Offering beautiful collections of clothes all created with gorgeous fabrics that are designed to be both flattering and forgiving, all manufactured right here in Canada.  If you love clothes, you need to know all about Miik.

Miik is a Toronto based brand that creates gorgeous wardrobe staples in their very own custom milled luxury fabric, which also happens to be eco-friendly. I truly believe that once you try even one of these pieces, experience the luxury of this fabric, and perfection of the fit, you too will become a fan.  Today I’m thrilled to introduce you to the stunning Spring/Summer Collection of Miik.

Miik has become known as a brand who provides eco-friendly pieces perfect for office, travel or home.  The Spring Summer collection once again reflects an air of elegance, comfort, and style the brand is famous for.  Here are a few of our favourites and must have pieces of the season.

My first choice,  the Lulu off-the-shoulder dress – shown here in their stunning ogee print.  

With a loose A-line silhouette, the Lulu dress features an off-the-shoulder design that sits high at the shoulder for just the right amount of coverage. The perfectly banded neckline with slight ruching holds the sleeve in place while a subtle A-line silhouette streamlines the body. A tie detail on the flowy three-quarter bell sleeve is a fun, flirty touch.  This little number is my new go-to alternative to the little black dress.

 

My second choice, but no means my second favourtie is the Melissa Lined Boyfriend Jacket.

The Melissa boyfriend jacket features a playfully patterned lining in ogee print or colour stripe. Roll up the sleeves to reveal the pattern at the cuff, or wear it open for an occasional peek. Features a classic notched lapel, welt pockets and single-button closure with flattering princess seams and a sewn-in band at the waist.  Great to dress up with jeans or your best pair of leggings.  Where or where has this jacket been all my life!

Is there anyone out there that loves cardigans as much as I do?  Good news!  You don’t have to give them up just because it’s summer!  My newest crush is the Gabriella Cocoon Cardi.  It’s incredibly versatile and oh so soft.  

Featuring a batwing sleeve and a circular hemline that curves lower at the back it can be dressed up or down for a more elegant or casual look. Over a tank, tunic, or dress, this easy-to-wear cardi is especially great for travel.

And my next purchase?  The Louanne off the shoulder tie sleeve top! Gorgeous in black but here’s an insider tip, Miik is rolling out some fun and flirty colours just in time for Spring!  How fabulous!

On-trend and off-the-shoulder, the Louanne is an excellent day-to-night, casual-to-dressy top.

Worthy of note:  When you are shopping online at Miik you are often given the option to not only look at multiple pictures of the product you are considering purchasing, but also a short video of a model wearing that product.  So wonderful to get a feel for how a dress, top or jacket might hang on your frame.

Are you ready to learn more about Miik?  This Canadian brand is now carried in over 75 stores across Canada and can also be purchased online.  Be sure to follow them on Twitter and Instagram for all your fashion inspiration.  I’ hope you might be inspired to do some shopping because I have acquired and an exclusive coupon for ALL of you!  Simply enter MODERNMOM20 at check out and you will receive 20% your purchase at www.miik.ca.
