Mah booklist for this blustery season. These must I read, drinking tea, curled up  on the couch.




Any further suggestions?

Merry Christmas!

Urban Renewal Jewellery

Urban Outfitter's Renewal line breathes new life into deadstock jewellery, vintage fabrics, and old stock clothing such as men's suits, vintage Levi's denim, patterned 70s and 80s dresses for reconstruction. You know these pieces will stand the test of time, because they've already been selected a second time to enter the current fashion cycle. Here's a fave from their Spring 2011 collection.

Taking my seat

Love these beehive bar stools at Ladurée in Paris. 

Ladurée is famous for being the original macaron shop. Craving these delectable cookies right now!

The Acadia

Winter in Ottawa calls for more than rubber rain boots! Obsessing over these Kodiaks. So ruggedly Canadian. Mmmm.

Hat Umbrella

This piece from Chanel SP 11 would work with any wardrobe. So versatile and timeless. Beautiful!

FENDI Spring 2011

Shoes, bracelets, purses were all stellar stand-outs, especially against the model whiteout on the Fendi catwalk.

Thank you Mr. Lagerfeld for some very beautiful goods! And, you really made your point clear: being white is always fashionable. Snowy skin just really makes colours pop, Mr. Lagerfeld, non?

Return to Blogger

Hello world. Sincerest apologies for my absence. I migrated to Wordpress early this year. That definitely bested me. Reverting to this blogging platform until I get a handle on that other account. I'll be posting on Blogger til further notice.

I am a Google die-hard, so word about their new smart shopping site peaked my curiosity. Check out my favourites at Boutiques.com!

Loving these Fendis! Texture and hardware!

Toasting 2010

Belated Christmakkuh wishes to all.

This past year has marked some highs and lows, the latter including uncertainties over post-uni life... decisions, decisions. Man. So I really hope 2010 will shape up to include more "definites".

To my disappointment, I am on call as RA, meaning a low key New Year's. D'oh. Currently mooning over some cocktail numbers. Alexander Wang is a decent consolation...maybe. Happy browsing!

Cheers to a new year, a new decade. I'm all for clean slates :)

Aldo Alert

And the picture that started it all...

Vogue Espana stylist Barbara Martelo rocking Chanel open-toes

Had them shipped to school... 6 days!! Alas, boots over books any day.

I'll be around more once I kill grad school crap...

Couture cooling down

Fall Couture 2009 is shaping up to be the most wearable season in recent years, complements of a sluggish economy and the return of the pantsuit! I've picked pieces that caught my eye for their wearability or for pure shock factor.


Armani Privé

Power fashion- lurrve the loose yet shapely fit

This zebra is reminiscent of one of my favourite looks of Jane's of Sea of Shoes.

Chanel

Gorrrrge lace tights throughout. Get me a pair please!

I'm floored by Lagerfeld's genius. These tuxes give Le Smoking a run for their money.

This screams Alexander Wang to me...

A cock-tail dress for reals

Classic.

Christian Lacroix

Man, I have never seen this fashion king so tame. Only a man as well-connected and talented as Lacroix could pull off a couture show during a bankruptcy.

Pared down. Beautiful take on the classic gold and black combo dress.

My favourite look!

I love these too.

Supermodel Vlada Roslyakova looking like the ever gorgeous Russian bride.

Elie Saab

All white catwalk, lots of wearable couture. Several classic investment pieces.

You can never have enough white formal attire.
