Trick or Treat in Style

Ok, so most of us may be a bit too old to go door-to-door, but that doesn't mean we can't dress up!  In celebration of Halloween, here are a couple of stylishly spooky and fun pieces: DSquared DSquared Marc Jacobs Charlotte Olympia Alexander McQueen Alexander McQueen Corto Moltedo Givenchy Happy Halloween!...

Now that's what I call menswear-inspired

As you have probably already noticed, this is not a street style blog, or a blog where I document my outfits.  Reason for that is because I believe that there are already plenty of wonderful street/personal style blogs, and also, I simply don't have a digital camera to take pictures with.  But bear with me as I try to describe my latest fashion...

Nordstrom Fall 2010 Ad Campaign

I remember the first time I saw Ruben Todelo's ad campaigns for Nordstrom: I was transfixed.  Toledo, the artist who has worked closely with Nordstrom for 10 years, has created some of the most artistic and visually delectable ad campaigns.  For Fall 2010, Toledo worked with Coco Rocha (I promise I'll stop talking about her...eventually). ...

Seeing Double

As I was shopping yesterday, I came across something that always conjures up debate.  Town Shoes is a store that sells shoes and bags, and they have a line called the Red Carpet Collection, which is basically a line that offers designer inspired pieces at cheaper prices (and cheaper quality).  Sounds great, but I often find the resemblance...

Jimmy Choo & UGG

This isn't new news, and I think a lot of us know about the collaboration between Jimmy Choo and UGG, but since yesterday was the launch event at the Holt Renfrew in my area, I thought I'd touch on it. First of all, Jimmy Choo and UGG??  Have you ever heard of a more incompatible match?  Jimmy Choo is sexy, and UGG is, well, not.  You...

Lanvin for H&M Preview

What a tease H&M is!  Two days after revealing the first photo of the Lanvin for H&M collection, another one pops up!  Slowly, bit-by-bit, H&M releases these photos and is keeping us on our toes!  No way am I going to miss this collaboration. Image Source: Vogue....

Model vs. Celebrity

Model vs. celebrity: who are you cheering for?  Me, I'll always cheer for the model.  While some people may rush to snag a copy of a magazine with their favourite celebrity on the cover, I always smile when I see a model on the cover of a fashion magazine.  It is, after all, a fashion magazine. It's undoubtable that the fashion and...

You want Socks with that?

If you were to suggest wearing socks with heels a couple of seasons ago, I would have laughed at you.  But now, seeing as more and more fashionable women are trying it out (fashionable men do the opposite and wear no socks), I might even consider it.  Might. Burberry got this trend right back in Spring/Summer 2010, but I've seen...

Lanvin for H&M Preview

There you have it!  Today, a sneak peek photo of Lanvin for H&M's collection was released.  Although this is only one photo, I'm liking what I see.  Lanvin's elegance and design elements are clearly seen in these four outfits.  The only thing left is the question of quality, and in order to find that out, we'll just have to...

Loco Over Coco

Karlie Kloss has got it, Sasha Pivovarova has got it, Lindsey Wixson has got it...in fact, every model has got it.  Every model has a signature; something he/she is known for.  Karlie has her sauntering walk, Sasha has her cold stare, and Wixson has her pouty lips. As you already know, Coco Rocha is my absolute favourite model.  What...
