MARNI for H+M!!!

5 days ago H&M announced their Spring 2012 designer collaboration will be with the house of MARNI!!!!! I just found out today at work and was ecstatic. I have always loved MARNI for as long as I can remember. What I love about the design house is their passion for unique patterns and daring cuts. I tend to dress conservatively with unique pieces, and MARNI is the design house I covet conservative-yet-eccentric clothes and accessories from. I can't wait until March 2012...

VICTORIA'S SECRET FASHION SHOW

WEDDING UPDATE: WEDDING COLOURS

In addition to a great time of year and length post engagement, we owe the colour choice of sapphire blue to the Birk Blue engagement ring I feel in love with for choosing September 2012 as the month we would get married. It wasn't to long after finding my engagement ring I found the perfect bridesmaid dresses that help set the sophisticated-regal tone/theme we're going for, and was influenced by our Parisian vacation.



I found my bridesmaid dress at Dessy.com where I bought my bridesmaid dress for my friend Norma's wedding.

MY KILLER BEAUTY COMBO

Stranger Tides by OPI, (Essie top coat) and my Annabelle Big Show Lipgloss :)

MY NEW OPI NAIL POLISHES

I recently bought two new OPI nail polishes from Nail Polish Canada; Stranger Tides and Midnight in Moscow. Similar colours to others I have but in a 'time to toss' state. I'm so happy about my new colours, I am having a hard time deciding which colour to paint first..

Lipgloss doesn't typically dictate what nail colour I'm going to wear but I love the idea of wearing/rocking Stranger Tides nail colour with my new custom (orange) Annabelle lipgloss together.

ANNABELLE BIG SHOW LIPGLOSS

This evening I represented ChickAdvisor at the Marcelle and Annabelle new product launch party held at the Thompson Hotel here in Toronto. I attended the evening with my work/girlfriends Alex and Mandy who after learning about all the latest innovations at Marcelle and Annabelle we also had the opportunity to design our very own Annabelle Big Show Lipgloss!!!!! And have our picture professionally taken. I can't wait to see our picture :D

PIECES OF PARIS FROM LONDON!

This last Sunday my fiance returned from a business trip in London. I knew he was going for quite sometime and after discovering how awesome the Duty-Free shop (PLAZA...) at Heathrow Airport's Terminal 3, I requested a bottle of my favourite fragrance, HOT Couture by Givenchy. Not only did my fiance grab a 100ml bottle of eau du parfum :D he also brought home my very own Longchamp vinyl pouch-handbag!!!!! I almost died. Not only was I shocked he bought me a handbag I have "eyed" (especially in the Longchamp SOHO, NYC store) for years, he bought exactly the right size and colour I was aspiring to own one day. All of these presents in addition to his safe and anxiously awaited return home, it was an incredible Sunday...

VERSACE FOR H+M: THE EVENT

The Versace for H&M collection was shown in NYC on the catwalk alongside with some iconic pieces created just for this exclusive show. This isn't a collaboration I'm crazy enough for to wait outside at 4am for, but I did find some pieces in the collaboration/collection I would love to have magically show up in my closet ;D

BEAUTY STAPLE: OPI NAIL POLISH

As I sit here waiting for my nails to dry (after painting them with OPI's You Don't Know Jacques!), I decided to post my love for my staple polish brand and colours. I am very brand loyal to OPI nail polish, I am grateful for OPI's affordable price, quality lasting power and finish, and their selection of sassy colours I can't get enough of! :D







Next OPI nail polish collection coming out is inspired by Holland CHECK IT OUT HERE.
