WAITING FOR BETTER WEATHER

The first day of Spring has come and gone. Although we have had a few really nice warm Spring days, recently and consistantly the weather has been cold for me. With a handful of new leather accessories I'm waiting to rock, I'm still wear my Winter accessories until there is no snow in the forecast, and the rain lets up. While I wait for better weather, here are some accessories I'm dying to wear out.

SPRING/SUMMER 2013 INSPIRATION: N-P

Getting close to finishing my list of favourite looks from my favourite designers. I couldn't finish N to Z in this last post to finish as I wanted to because you can only have 200 characters in the labels, which until now I found very limiting. Sometimes there are digital circumstances you deal with as you go..

Narciso Rodriguez


Oscar de la Renta


Peter Som


Ports 1961


Prabal Gurung


Prada

H+M CONSCIOUS COLLECTION PARTY

This past Wednesday, StephanieFlattered and I attended FLARE and H+M Canada's Spring 2013 Conscious Collection celebration. The party was fun, catered with food, drinks, and fashion! What else does a girl need on a Wednesday? ;) 


Waiting in line above. I'm the redhead with a ponytail, black clothes, with the white bag. Below is another picture from FLARE's website, I purchased the cream, 100% silk, embroidered Kimono hanging there to the left.



My outfit doesn't do the Kimono justice, but it's a beautiful garment!


I also found and bought this patterned tank top from the collection.
