Hello Darlings,

I am so excited to have a new Mackage Bijour jacket. Sooooooo EXCITED!!!!!

LOVE IT!

Mackage Winter Collection…. LOVE I T!!!!

The jacket is even more beautiful in person. This may be the most obsessed that I’ve been with a designer / brand. All of my expectations are exceeded with every purchase. It is definitely “Detailed to Perfection”. Mackage definitely makes Canadian winters so much more lovable and stylish.

My color of choice was black, but it comes in other colors too.

I also recently purchased Miss Dior Cherie from Christian Dior. Although Chanel Coco Mademoiselle with ALWAYS be my signature scent, Dior it is nice to change it up.

I am obsessed with the pretty bottle…and the tiny bow :)

Curious to hear what are your favorite designers for your cold weather wardrobe?

With Love…

Marta

    I am so happy for you!!! Your parents really are very sweet…

    I think Mackage is the reason I found your blog? lol… actually, I 'found' it a couple of times for different search reasons… but 'Mackage' is when I decided to become a 'regular'. hahaha

    J'adore Mackage as well!!! I have to say though, that for a bit… I was a teensy-weensy turned off by the brand because everyone that wanted a Mackage (in Vancouver, that I know of, at least….) ran to the nearest Aritzia and bought the Jerry. *sigh* After I saw yours though, I was reconverted, and am here to stay. I can't wait to see you all dressed up in it. :)

    Have you tried Miss Dior Cherie before? And did you like it? I didn't like it so much as I liked Coco Mademoiselle.. or Nina by Nina Ricci, which is my ultimate go-to… so it's been rattling about in the bottom of my perfume drawer. I actually can't remember why I didn't like it anymore, so maybe it's time to pull out the bottle and take a whiff. :)

    P.S. Love that Mackage 'little black book'.

    • I know the story of Mackage Jerry… haha, same thing here in Toronto :P I've always adored Mackage, even before Aritzia craze over it…I love their attention to detail. I also really LOVE Soia&Kyo which is a sister brand of Mackage, actually brother brand…since it is designed by Elfassy's brother :P Let's just say I am HUGE fan of the brands!

      I used to wear Miss Dior Cherie in high school and loved it. Right now and probably forever, my favorite is Coco Mademoiselle… ever since I tried it in grade 11, I haven't worn anything else. I think that Miss Dior Cherie is a nice change just for everyday wear…it is not quite as strong as Chanel. But for me Chanel is Chanel :D

      Wish you a lovely day!

  8. Great jacket, Marta! I recall you posting about it previously — a hot item!

    You will look amazing in it — I cannot wait to see some pics :) Your parents
    are so loving and generous, but something tells me it also has to do with the
    fact that you are a sweetheart.

    Miss Dior Cherie is my favorite scent for winter months! I keep buying it over
    and over, because I have a special connection with that scent. It's so funny
    how connections can happen with the simplest of things, like perfume :)

    I hope you get some work done, but also have some time for you and a bit
    of relaxation…I'm working on our previously talked about post *wink

    oh wow, i actually do want to find/buy this parka too because i love the shape and how it doesn't remind me of the michelin man in the least. we'll see if i can muster up the $600 for this thing… i'm sure i'd never need another parka in my LIFE. lol. a technical question though, marta — what size did your parents buy for you, and how is the fit? and most importantly… how warm is it?? ;) xoxo

    • Hi Iris,
      This parka is AMAZING! Honestly, you just can't go wrong with Mackage. All of their jackets are much more beautiful in person than they are on the photo.
      As for size, it's Small and so is my Mackage Lean leather jacket. My measurements are 32 23 32 and I usually wear 0-00 or xs-xxs, depending on the brand. However, Mackage fits tighter in the arms and chest and the smaller size is a bit to too snug for my liking. I would definitely size up with Mackage, especially with the winter jacket :) As for the warms,it seems to be amazingly warm, but only time will tell :) I will most definitely keep you updated! The jacket is very light and you don't feel like you said a Michelin Man!

      Have a lovely day!
