Hello Darlings,

Today was a shopping day with my mother to check out Gap’s Designer Editions. I bought a pair of Alexander Wang khakis and they are perfection…

As for today’s outfit, I wore a Maggie Ward dress with my new Wilfred sweater, which was  perfect for a long day shopping. Comfortable yet cute, and there are so many ways to wear it (click to check out) some: look1; look2; look3; look4; look5; look6.

I’m a big fan of Maggie Ward designs and wish we had it in Canada. The items are so simple and absolutely perfect. Check out the latest collections here ( click) .

I am Wearing:

Maggie Ward Dress

Wilfred Sweater

Juicy Couture Flats

A.V. Max Cuff

Gustto Purse

Ray Ban wayfarers

 

JIMMY CHOO FOR H&M( November 14)

We are privileged to be among the fashion greats who have been affiliated with H&M so far, and to be designing a collection appealing to fashion savvy, street smart women, and to be including some great pieces for men, too,” founder and president of Jimmy Choo,Tamara Mellon said today. “Jimmy Choo will bring to H&M a sophisticated, fashion forward, accessible and glamorous collection – the perfect party pieces to buy now and then wear out that night!”

Not content with creating covetable accessories, Jimmy Choo will also design a range of clothing for the high street giant, which, in a change to most collections, will be created to complement the accessories rather than the other way around.

The collection, which will comprise shoes, bags and accessories for mens and women, will arrive in selected H&M stores on November 14.


I wish you all a lovely day!!!

With Love…

Hello Darlings, 

I love summer and hot weather, but it’s the most dreaded season to decide what to wear as if I subconsciously HATE bright colors. I find them distracting and loud – and they just don’t suit me. I prefer nudes and basics but in different shades and hues. Basically, Colors that are subdued.

Today I went shopping with my mother. Shopping on Monday is a magical experience – it is an awesome way to start a week, and because the malls are nearly empty. First, we went to Godiva to buy some Dark Chocolate Decadence and candy, then to Chanel make-up counter and then wandered through many more stores.

NO COLORS

Am I the only one struggling with this?

Do you feel like you HAVE to wear colors in the summer?

I am wearing:
Wilfred Sweater
Talula Babaton Sheer Tee
Talula Shorts
Michael Kors Heels
Gustto Bag


 

Two things that I have embraced this summer are my naturally wavy hair, and wearing practically no make up. OOOH yea. I also rekindled my love with Michael Kors heels :) My new obsession is this Wilfred Sweater from Aritzia. Cuddly and soft, it goes with everything and is perfect to throw on during a chilly summer night.
