Hello Darlings,

With warm weather in Palm Beach Florida, I have started my spring shopping. Two of my newest additions are also two of my favorite spring trends: colour blocking shoes and feminine silhouettes.

My current obsession is sorbet colour combinations and in particular orange and fuchsia. Imagine my surprise when I found these adorable orange toecap ballerinas when browsing Aldo Shoes online store as part of my Fabulous Meets Fashion spree. Given that the biggest spring trend in footwear is colour blocking, these cheerful darlings are an ideal bright addition to my closet. For those that are colour shy, shoes are a perfect way to add some colour.

Hello Darlings,

I hope everyone had a sweet Valentine’s Day with much love!

Please do share your Valentine’s Day experiences by commenting on the his and her perspectives from Josie Dye and Wilder Weir - since tomorrow we will choose two winners for The Keg Steakhouse & Bar $50 gift cards – for your next date or girls night out.

And thanks to all the loves in my life for a special Valentine’s Day! I spent the day exploring cute shops of City Plaza in West Palm Beach, followed by a trip to the charming Boca Raton. I felt very lucky! The evening was made that much more delightful with an adorable bottle of wine — much appreciated in the process of completing work.

Hello Darlings,

Trends come and go but there’s a select few that become classics. Amongst the little black dresses, a-line skirts, blazers and black pumps is also a sneaker. A sneaker that is traditionally defined to be the blank pump of sports shoes. I am speaking of a tennis shoe and in particular the classic Tretorn Nylite. The very first luxury sports shoe.

Tretorn Nylite an ultimate preppy kid sneaker with an impressive history behind its shoelaces. Since their first release in 1967, Sweden, the shoe took the world by storm along with tennis ace Björn Borg. During the period when Björn Borg’s awesomeness would put Kanye West to shame—both fans of Tretorn— the Nylite’s ruled the shoe world.

Often at random times is when you most appreciate how lucky and happy is your life. So much so, I am concerned to jinx what is happening with my own life!

As I was buying travel essentials, I thought how this week will be rich with travel, experiences, and meeting interesting people. Monday, I will travel to Montreal for their Fashion Week, and to host my own WithLoveGabrielle event. This time last year, I was finishing University and interning at Sotheby’s, so it is surreal how different is my life just one year later. There is a HUGE world outside of school, which is not as scary as it seemed :P With creativity and a bit of hard work, making one’s own path can be exhilarating!
