Hello Darlings,
A huge part of being Canadian is to be geared up and ready to face the cruel and long winters…. that means acquiring multiple coats, parkas, winter boots, and of course heavy moisturizers and lip balm….
Frozen Lake Ontario - 14th largest lake in the world and it is frozen!
And although I enjoy the snowy days spent on the ski slopes, I don’t enjoy dressing for the winter time. I find it can be dull, boring and rather frustrating. But for some fashion inspiration, I visited the Sartorialist and found some inspiration with this jacket.
Full Circle and No Mixing of Black and Brown: Although my outfit is not as exciting as hers, it is warm and cozy. I also present my brown side of the closet: I have black and brown side in which each color has it’s own things that goes with it (jackets, shoes, sweaters, bags,etc).
WOULD YOU MIX BLACK AND BROWN? WHY OR WHY NOT?
I’ve also been asked to show a close up of my new Michael Kors babies. The most comfortable boot ever: suede with patent leather detailing…
I am wearing:
Full Circle Wool Jacket
Club Monaco Cashmere sweater
J brand Jeans
Portolano Cashmere Gloves
Regina Italia Handmade Italian Leather Bag
These Michael Kors boots have a patent leather stripe running along the back, and I love how they add length to a leg. They are also super practical for winter since they have a flat heel.
If you live in Canada, what are your winter favorites?
With Love…
Marta

i just adore you, you know!! you wear so lovely clothes, i wanna own your wardrobe!

i am still new on the combining black and brown thing.
but once you get started, i think you warm yourself to it. but fun to know that you have different sides for black and brown. haha! good luck on the exams
So You’re obviously ready to cross the cold days of “Canadian winter” with a “chameleonic Elegance” !!!
AND You’re frankly full of haughty casualness on the “one bare shoulder” picture, very enchanting.
