Valentine’s Day Outfit Inspiration + My Birthday!

Hey Lovelies!

It’s Valentines’ Day!! and… My birthday!!! Woo me!!  I can’t tell you how excited I am.  Now that I’m 25…there I said it…25…! I actually feel as though I’m moving into another stage of life it’s sort of odd and cool, in an unexpected sort of way.  Old age here I come!

To celebrate here’s some Valentines day outfit inspiration, red is one of the major fore runners on the color tracker for spring.  I like these two looks because they’re a little different than the traditional red dress commonly word for Valentine’s; these are my sophisticated alternatives  Click on the little icons to see where you can get the look for yourself.

Red and Nude

 

 

This looks a little more formal, if your headed to a swanky restuarant I think this is a great option

Oh la la

 

 

Feeling a little unconventional?  I’d wear something like this in a heart beat.  The red leggings make it unique, this outfit was inspired by a very stylish lady I came across and just had to recreate my own version.

One more look after the jump!!

Christmas Haul

Santa was very generous to me this year, even though I maybe wasn’t the nicest little girl.  I did however post my wish list last week…so it must have gotten into the right hands. I’m absolutely smitten by everything I received and can’t offer enough overbearing thanks and humble gratitude to my hubby for the iPod and watch.  And to my Kris Kringle this year, my sister in-law Celeste, thank you so much for the purse!

Spending the day enjoying the warmth indoors, bumping to Talk that Talk to be since 6:00a.m.

All I want for Christmas…

HEY!!!

I feel like it’s been forever since I actually had a minute to pump out something worth blogging about with the mayhem of all my final exams .  By Friday semester 1 will be behind me, and a well needed escape to Niagara will take it’s place, we go there every year this time of the season, so I really can’t wait! My blogging may have stopped but my mind is in Christmas overdrive, so I thought I’d share my christmas list.

1. Michael Kors tote

2. Michael Kors watch

3. Lulu lemon scuba sweater

4. Zara blouse

5. Rachel Roy mixed charm collar

6. Michael Kors Josie sandal

 

Obviously I’m obsessed with everything Michael Kors…

Was feeling Calvin Klienesque, came up with this last night while watching Drop Dead Diva.  Don’t ask me how they’re connected I’ve no idea, but Stacy was being a complete bitch, don’t let fame get to your head girl.


But back to my set;  Fur coat coats have been on my mind a lot lately especially since I excitedly washed my coat and fried my fur in the dryer…

It was heart breaking, one of the disadvantages of faux fur.  I try my best to be socially conscious of these sort of issues but sometimes it’s just not as good as the real thing.
I’d actually wear something like this, with some dark denim, tangy orange boots, and a simple white shirt.  Love it!  I found these really quirky glasses from Mary Kate and Ashley’s collection The Row which I’ve fallen in love with. It adds the little touch of odd that makes this look work, MK&A’s specialty.

Friday Fashion: Rihanna in “Rinimal”

"Rinimal"

 

 

Happy Friday!!!
The week is over but that only means the weekend has just begun!  Rihanna’s cover and spread in the Vogue November 2011 issue inspired this look for me.  Anyone going out this weekend is almost guarenteed to have these 3 pieces in their wardobe; a basic black blazer, black dress shorts and a black tank.
What I love most is how you’d expect to see sky high heels, but for the practical Queen these oxford flats make a great alternative, at 11:30 pm your toes will thank you!
Try and avoid wearing the black tank top you use to layer under your sweater during the week, instead go for something a little more dressy, like this one by Alexander Wang for a more polished and less deliberately simple look.
I’m in a party mood, and I hope everyone else is, in keeping with all things Rihanna I sign off for the weekend with her latest video, “We Found Love”.

“Cosby” Leggings

Rock, Red & Roll

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Happy Monday!!

 

You know me, I’m a glam rock princess at heart, anything tinted black or  leather has my name scribbled all over it.  This weekend I went on a hunt hitting up many of my favourite spots in search of leggings which I’ve dubbed the “Cosby’s”   The old school sweater print just reminds me so much of Bill Cosby and the sweaters he use to wear so often on the show, so I’m officially going with that name!

 

I didn’t end up finding any unfortunately, I did have my heart set on a pair, made all sorts of plans for them which won’t ever come to pass….BUT I did come up with this cute outfit that features almost the exact pair I want from romwe.com, I’ll probably just end up ordering them from there, they offer free worldwide shipping, no minimum purchase required!
