Playing Dress Up: Donna Karan Tights

On October 9, 2009 · 35 Comments · In Wear, Winter
Hello Darlings,

Checking in to wish everyone a lovely day. Today, I have some University classes and then a million errands. But since I am driving, I felt like playing dress up and wear heels and a skirt. Otherwise, heels are a no-go!!!

Pretty Ballerina Flats

On July 7, 2009 · 21 Comments · In Summer, Wear
Hello Darlings,

It's a very hot day in Toronto, and I have a busy day ahead with a mixed agenda including a morning appointment at the hairdresser's, an afternoon at the art gallery and professor's office, and then dinner and drinks at the chic Yorkville neighborhood. It makes no sense coming home to change between appointments, so choosing a fitting wardrobe for all this is a dilemma.

I am wearing:

Armani Exchange Silk Blouse

Donna Karan Silk Cami

Talula Shorts

Pretty Ballerina Flats

Juicy Couture Laptop Bag

Diamond Ring courtesy Ice.com Jewelers

What I came up with was comfortable, simple and hopefully cute. A pair of Talula shorts that are comfortable to wear but do not look sloppy, Pretty Ballerina flats for all of the running around and to add a pop of color, and a silk blouse from Armani Exchange to make it more chic and pulled together. And as a final touch, my trusty Juicy Couture laptop bag for computer and all the papers needed today.

This is my so called work station.:P I started to make a re-do, finished the painting, got my bathroom re-done and the walk it closet. But I have NOOO idea what to do with my work station - so frustrating.

Anyways, I'm off to do some research... I responsible for an upcoming exhibit catalog, which is a lot of work but interesting.

Please check out my Elle Canada contest page here and here. Kisses for your support!
I wish you all a lovely day!!!
With Love... Marta

Nervous Wreck…

On June 5, 2009 · 18 Comments · In Fall, Parties, Wear
Hello Darlings,

I was a nervous wreck trying to figure out what to wear. When you're a student/ young professional and getting ready to go to an art gallery: WHAT DO YOU WEAR?

I wanted to wear something that was professional, but still me. Something cute but serious. Something appropriate, but not boring. Fashionable but not flashy; subtle and classic but with a twist. So here's what I came up with...
I am wearing:
Wilfred Linen Trench
Armani Exchange Silk Sheer Blouse with Donna Karan Silk Cam
Juicy Couture Mary Jane's
H&M Bow Headband

Not too office-y or grown up, but girl-y and appropriate. Personally, getting dressed for meetings is most difficult. Trying to stay true to your personal style and not looking like everyone else does in business-casual attire is a challenge.

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