torn to shreds

nyfw. so far i've not been blown away. hopefully things heat up once we get overseas.

i did like dkny, rebeccca minkoff, band of outsiders, theory and the leopard cashmere toms collaboration at the row + we still have proenza and lim...

at alexander wang the stand outs were the glitter pants and these incredible lux evening looks above, v.sexy.

glowing hearts

my winter uniform. skinnies/leggings/ random tee/oversized cardi/boots/huge parka.
boring really. but no one can see what i'm wearing anyway under all the layers.
that said this is a look i love, comfy, easy, natural.
the cardi is a winter09 fav. i picked it up in the men's department at the gap and paired with my fav. shearling moccasins, it makes me very happy.

off to watch the olympics and later dream of marc and mulberry on style.com. i watch the games all day, go canada! and only take breaks to scan the collections online and watch cheesy 90's sports movies like the cutting edge | toe pick |

so far my stand out collections from nyfw have been rag and bone, rebecca taylor, helmut lang and marc jacobs + i loved alexa's madewell line. def. have to make a nyc trip for that.

sweater: gap, tee: american apparel, moccs: hiawatha, leggings: aritzia, polish: essie mint candy apple

bleach

i know we've all seen these amazing pictures of hanne backstage at the alexander wang show.

i loved her layering, her braid (obvi.), and most of all her nirvana tee. i bought the same one a few months ago at public butter, one of my favourite vintage shops here in toronto.

i've been wearing it a lot this summer and i had to post a picture of it.

i only wish i had pretty lighting like that in the first picture of hanne. it is so stunning.

alexa entrenched

alexa chung at the burberry show.

the celebs flocked to this london fashion week standout in droves.

can you blame them? bailey is a genius and the clothes were stunning, classic, special pieces.

the real winner though was miss chung once again.

stunning hair and make up, gorgeous burberry trench, adorable belted mini and sky high platforms to ground it all.

good going lex.

mulberry s/s2010. o m g.

i have never wanted any handbag as much in my life.

the fringed daria is amazing.

but nothing... n o t h i n g! beats the alexa.

i want it so badly.

and the mini version and the leopard ;).

the braided handle, the double buckles, the cross body strap....

it's love.

marc by marc jacobs spring/summer 2010

i loved the new marc by marc collection, as always. amazing pops of colour and mash up of prints.

the button up heart shorts, studded and heart print bags, striped skinnies, relaxed knit dresses/pants/jumpsuits, leopard coats and tees and high waisted skirts were stand outs.

i also adored the hair and make up. stephanie at le chic gave me the heads up on it when she twittered the models look after the show yesterday (thanks lady!). the hair bows and bright lips, so fresh and fun.

i really enjoyed the collection. i love that it's moving away from the rocker/leather/grungy look but still retained some hints of it like the bags and slouchy trackies because, as much as the look has saturated the market it's basic feeling/elements will always be cool.
