JOE AND KIM - FLARE PARTY LAST YEAR


This picture was taken around the same time last year, when FLARE magazine hosted their 25th Anniversary party. Such a special moment for us to have our picture taken with such amazing Canadian designers. I will never forget (both times) when we asked to take a picture they have always responded, "of course!"

JOE FRESH STYLE

Today was LouLou magazine's annual block party on Bloor street in Toronto. It's always so much fun, our ritual is always visiting Winners and Joe Fresh. This year when we went over to Joe Fresh, there was Joe Mimran mingling with all the guests! My friend Sarah and I HAD to get a picture with Joe, who cares if other people thought we were 'uncool' for doing so, I saw them later putting their blackberry's on the camera option. I was so shocked at the time, I forgot to ask him for a hint to his Spring collection that will be shown during Toronto Fashion week.

MISSONI SPRING 2011 ROCKS MILAN FASHION WEEK

London and Milan Fashion week were such a rush! Watching updates daily on twitter to see pictures from the runways :) Over the course of the week I was inspired by Jonathan Saunders, Erdem in London, and Prada, Dolce & Gabbana, and MISSONI :) Missoni's Spring 2011 I found most exciting. It was completely unexpected-expected from the brand. I love how the inspiration from the collection and know there are pieces I would definitely die to wear.



MULBERRY PURSES ON THE HIGH STREET

It's only been 6 days since I last mentioned it but I'm so excited for the Mulberry for Target collection! I'm so excited that I might have the chance to pick up one (or both) of these bags :)

SEPTEMBER ISSUE: INSTYLE UK

Today I picked up the September InStyle UK :) I love UK magazines, I love European culture, art, and daring fashion and style. I was immediately attracted to the issue because of Rachel Bilson, I love her style. There is a lot of great content in this issue, here are just a few things that stood out for me to remember.

Love that bloggers are invading fashion shows, and magazines are working with them and not against :) A lot of people love fashion..

This specific look by Dries Van Noten has really been the inspiration for my fall wardrobe. I love Dries Van Noten for his structured simplicity. Colours, shapes, and advertising always catch my attention and love. Quote by Rachel Bilson, we have something in common! haha

This feature is on The Runaways, the band and the movie that was released this year. I love biopics, and sex, drugs, and rock & roll, so I rented it. LOVED it. Very, Control, DIG, 24hr Party People, Factory Girl - ish. Dakota Fanning who plays lead singer Cherie rocked this movie. And I loved her wardrobe :)

LONDON FASHION WEEK: MATTHEW WILLIAMSON SPRING 2011

My picks from Matthew Williamson's Spring 2011 collection. I love London Fashion Week.



MY COLLECTION OF SEPTEMBER & OCTOBER MAGAZINES

I could only fit 12 on my table, but I have collected over 14 magazines in the last few months. I love my Canadian magazines but there are a lot of American and UK issues I can't live without. I just love seeing the seasonal designer fashion and trends featured differently in each publication.

MARIE CLAIRE'S BILLBOARD IN TIMES SQUARE

Before I left for NYC with my girlfriend Coco Rocha tweeted about her billboard that was up in Times Square. On the first day in NYC I spotted the billboard and of course took a picture of the fun, high fashion billboard. I'm so happy I picked up the October Marie Claire, inside is the article on the billboard which was a Project Runway challenge. Great read to learn about the challenge, the winning designer, the outfit, and the model, Coco Rocha.

My picture of the billboard :D

MULBERRY PURSES AT TARGET!!!

While flipping through my new Marie Claire I found this ad for Mulberry purses at Target! OMG. These designer capsule collections are so much fun. When I was a kid or young adult I never thought I would have the opportunity to own some of the brands I do now. The Mulberry purse collection will be in Target stores in October. It must be my lucky month, I will be visiting my parents in Niagara Falls during this promotion, and my boyfriend promised to take me over the Canada/US boarder to make this dream come true :)
