Mint in Twenty8Twelve

On August 30, 2009 · 23 Comments · In Wear
Hello Darlings,

I finally had a chance to wear my new Twenty8Twelve dress and Pedro Garcia shoes and adore them both. The dress is risque short, butt works with opaque tights or a pair of super skinny jeans. As for shoes, my new Pedro Garcia Mary Jane's are perfection... comfortable and totally awesome :)

The dress is made of very beautiful silk in light mint-y color with pretty little circles. The circles are not evident in the pictures, but they make this dress unique to the rest of my closet. Plus, it's a perfect addition to my Vegas wardrobe. I also love how the dress is practical for both warm and cold weather.

Speaking of Las Vegas, I am creating an inspiration post with different outfits to help me figure out what to bring...since I am not very familiar with the atmosphere there. So please do share suggestions as to what people wear to the swimming pool parties, lounges, night clubs, dinners and just strolling around. Thanks a million!

I am wearing:

Twenty8Twelve Silk Dress

Calvin Klein Opaque Tights

Pedro Garcia Mary Jane's

Mackage Leane Leather Jacket

Well, I am off to watch True Blood which is re-playing on HBO

yup, I watch it twice in one night, it's my Sunday ritual

With Love... Marta

Corpus Skinny Jeans

Hello Darlings,

Dressing for summer comes with some challenges. Something about wearing as little as possible throws me off. I feel awkward in shorts and minis (as if my behind is naked). I prefer wearing cashmere scarves, my Mackage leather jacket and cozy sweaters.

I hate feeling like my face is melting and like my hair is becoming a frizz-ball. Handling and dressing for heat is definitely not my forte. So finally, the weather cooled to a refreshing 20 degrees so I could wear skinny jeans and a blazer.

The outfit consisted of my favorite Corpus Skinny Jeans, semi-sheer tee and my all time favorite BCBG Max Azria Blazer. It is simple but with detail, for example my gold bracelets complement the gold chain on my purse. And of course, my mani and pedi always match.

I am a detail-freak and think the most important part of getting dressed is paying careful attention to details. For me, everything needs to be neat (definitely wrinkle-free), coordinated and simple. I live by this formula!

 

I am wearing:

Talula Babaton Semi-sheer tee

Calvin Klein Bra

Corpus Skinny Jeans in Ash

BCBG Max Azria Blazer

Michael Kors Heels

Gustto Cokera Purse

Accessories&Beyond Bracelets

And not to forget a good cause...

Raining Luggage

On April 28, 2009 · 29 Comments · In Go, Shopping
Hello Darlings,

On a rainy day in Toronto, I went luggage shopping. I've always used a regular upright valise, but hate how wrinkled and disorganized everything was. So I am searching for a new wheeled garment bag.

To go shopping, I wore a French Connection Tee Dress and Tulula Babaton Wool Blazer. I accessorized with my opaque Calvin Klein tights and Michael Kors duck boots.

I love the bow accent on the dress. I am obsessed with bows, they are tooo cute!!!!

I have always believed that the more organized the bag, the more it will fit. So I bought this Atlantic Valise and Wheeled Garment Bag which has:

1) Double detachable hooks to allow bag to hang when open.

2) Door opening panel, which zips in for extra protection.

3) Universal brackets to lock hangers in place and accept most hangers.

 
I wish you all a lovely day!!!
With Love... Marta

Romeo and Juliet + Dinner Party Fun…

Hello Darlings,

I love this simple Maggie Ward dress with a tint of sparkle. It is comfortable and goes with anything. Tonight I wore it with my Mackage leather jacket. Never thought a leather jacket would work for me but it gave character to my outfit - and made me feel like a " bad ass".

Tonight's soiree was a dinner party at a restaurant followed by Romeo and Juliet Ballet. If you live in Toronto, the performance is incredible. Visual and emotionally charged - you won't be able to take your eyes off the stage. I am still overwhelmed how wonderful it was :)

As for my outfit, well I went for simple...with a touch of sparkle :)

I am wearing:
Maggie Ward Dress
Mackage Leather Jacket
Club Monaco Cashmere Scarf
A.V. Max Gold Studded Cuff
CK Tights
Ruthie Davis " Screen" Heels with Swarovski Crystals

I wore my Ruthie Davis "screen" heels with Swarovski crystals. These shoes make me feel like a princess and to match the patent leather of the shoe, I wore patent leather Coach wristlet. I really love how the Swarovski crystals on the heels complement the sparkle of the dress and the patents leather adds a bit a little something to the entire outfit.

I wore my all time favorite shoes by Ruthie Davis. These shoes always make me feel like a princess and to match the patent leather of the shoe, I wore patent leather Coach wristlet. I really love how the Swarovski crystals on the heels go perfectly with the sparkle of the dress and the patents leather adds a bit a little something to the entire outfit. I kept everything else, including hair and make up, fairly simple.... just the way I like it, simple with beautiful details :)
Tomorrow's plan is to visit the Art Gallery of Ontario for my art critique assignment. I am really excited, because the gallery was just renovated by Frank Gehry - so I can't wait to see building as well. I will try to take some pictures .
I wish you all a lovely and fun weekend :)
With Love... Marta
