Looklet – S/S Trends 2011 – Colour Block

I love wearing colour!! Love it! So you can understand why this season’s Colour Blocking trend is one of my top favourites! For this look I didn’t hold back using colour! The Zara shoes have a touch of turquoise on the heel that matches the belt. And I used the monochromatic tights to break up the outfit a bit, and I think that it pulled the look together! And of course a little bling didn’t hurt anyone! The necklace is a great finishing piece that added a little “something-something” to the outfit!

Looklet – S/S Trends 2011 – The Minimalist

Using Looklet.com, I created this outfit with inspiration from one of this season’s trends – The Minimalist. The Minimalist is about exactly that – keeping it simple. White, creams, and off-whites, play a big part of this trend. You can either use simple basic lines, or use delicate looking fabrics. I think this is a very classy trend, but can also be played down and worn casually! And I know that this trend is mainly about whites, but I had, had, HAD, to add a pop of colour! Love it!

Better Late Than Never – LG FASHION WEEK – Denis Gagnon

It’s been a couple months…but better late than never…these are some shots that I took at the Denis Gagnon show back in March. I fell in love with the bright colours and the movement of the fabrics. The shoes, which caught my eye right away, were from Aldo. But I do believe that Gagnon and his team made some obvious alterations – much to my liking! I fell in love with the shoes! I wanted a pair as soon as I saw them! I can’t wait for winter (cannot believe I said that) s0 that I can rock some bright colours to beat the winter blues!!

And surprise – there was more rain. Nothing like grey skies and a lot of rain to remind me of my childhood in Vancouver! I’m not a fan!! Can you tell? I was using Polyvore the other day and came up with this Rain-Inspired creative. If I wanted to go out in the rain – this is what I would wear! I have a pair of Blue Lacoste rain boots, but I’m kind of falling in love with those Burberry boots (mainly because I see similar boots everywhere!!). Yes I am one of those people, if I see a lot of something, I might just start to want it!

Real World Runway: Polka-Dot Dancing

I didn’t notice until I did a major overhaul of my wardrobe (i.e. giveaway & donate a portion of my wardrobe and organize the rest of it) – how obsessed I was with Joe Fresh clothing. I found a bag, some shirts, pants, shoes…I love Joe Fresh. (I love Joe Fresh so much … that I just remembered I did a post and featured a pair of pants that I had bought from the brand as well!) Not only is the line affordable (which everyone knows by now), but the clothes are chic and cool. It’s not hard for me to justify buying clothing from the brand, because for me the fit is right & so is the price. So today I found myself visiting one of the Joe Fresh Studio locations and I happened to pick up this lovely dress for only …(drumroll please…..) $22. And that was with tax! Give or take a few cents of course. I found a picture, but the dress I bought was in black with white polka dots. …
