aritzia spring lookbooks | tna


best for last, tna artizia's wildchild. i not only l o v e almost every piece in the collection i adore the styling! such a great shoot, the make up, the props, ♥ the blanket and the tiger mask, grr. + we have miss ballinger's charming self once again. i had to post the lookbook in it's entirety (thus the huge amount of photos, sorry!)
my favourites: hands down the wolf/horse/eagle combo tee, the plaids, the mexican blanket sweater, all the belts, the cropped hoodie and the army shirt.

aritzia spring lookbooks | wilfred

wilfred. so stunning. i love this line. all the best fabrications, simple clean lines. it's the pieces you turn to again and again. the lightly is so pretty in these shots and miss veranika is so pretty fresh from a shoot with italian vogue | i love her soft waves.
this spring i'm loving the chambrey pieces (the denim shirt dress and the oversized button down are gorgeous), the high waisted denim shorts and all the cropped swingy tees (who doesn't love a nautical strip and a ditsy floral?) i definitely need to save my pennies for some of these pieces.

aritzia spring lookbooks | talula

it's no secret the i'm an aritzia addict. i think most girls from ontario and west to bc are fans of this amazing canadian company. lately, their look books have really been taking it up a notch, in part do to the stunning additions of models rachel ballinger and veranika antsipava but mostly because of their truly coveted clothing. i'm going to share my favourite images from some of aritzia's stellar in house brands starting with the blogger favourite talula.
i love the cropped military pants and the jacket, the torn sweater in the last shot, the entire first look and all the great shoes (although i'm aware those are property of the killer stylist and not sold at the stores, boo)

stars in their eyes

three of my fav. recent celebrity outfits. rachelx2 and leighton. it's obvious by looking at these ladies that you can instantly make any casual/dressed down outfit look amazing with the addition of a great pair of heels or a gorgeous bag. leighton is killing it with those balmain booties and rachel knows that everything is better when you add chloe or chanel to the mix. rachel's last outfit is a perfect look in my eyes, completely something i would wear. the skinnies, heeled vintage looking boots, slouchy cardi and please can i have that chanel? so good. bilson and meester also happen to be my two favourite brunettes on the hollywood scene, such stunners.

i heart camilla akrans

so gorgeous. she has the most dreamy style, stunning lighting in her photographs and really makes the woman she shoots look so beautiful. i love her and anja together especially but these pictures of caroline winberg for elle sweden are incredible too. they have both a light summer feel and something icy cold about them. very fresh.

there is too much to love in this group of photos. the mood, the stunningly styled jourdan dunn, the nod to all things retro english and most of all, the absolute sexiness of mr. josh beech. by far my favourite male model, he really optimizes the type of guy i'm into. tall, creative types, tattoos and good hair big +++ such a great playful smile too which you can't see in this spread but you'll see in the tumblr spam i'm going to do on him. i love that jourdan is reading jonathan livingston seagull by robert bach, such a great book.

isabel lucas a vision of candy confection in march's harper's bazaar australia and at the premiere of daybreakers below.she is so beautiful.
hope you all are well. i'm not going to make excuses for a lack of posts because all i can say is that fashion and life in general has been very blah lately. there's just nothing out there that has me excited. hopefully the upcoming shows and the arrival of all things spring in the shops will change all this. xxc. ohh... for all my uk readers, how amazing are naomi and effy looking this season on skins? just gorgeous.
