COACH SPRING/SUMMER 2013 ACCESSORIES

Since I archived my Coach accessories in January 2013, the historic brand has not let down on releasing gorgeous after gorgeous accessory, again and again. In February I saw online and then purchased shortly after, Coach's Mini Tanner Perforated Handbag in Bisque Leather. This past weekend Coach released more new accessories in store, and I feel in love with the affordable Mini Willis Handbag in Cognac Leather. These handbags can be worn at anytime with my wardrobe, but shortly the Mini Tanner will be my everyday handbag and the Mini Willis, a fantastic option for weekends.

TORONTO LIFE STYLEBOOK PARTY

This past Wednesday, Stephanie Flattered and I attended Toronto Life magazine's special interest issue, Stylebook Soiree. My name wasn't added until that morning so at lunch I visited Hudson's Bay store across from my office, and picked up this beautiful Spring/Summer top by Jessica Simpson. To add a little more "jazz" to my outfit I found a beautiful statement necklace from the jewelry line, Expressions. Party took place at The Distillery District here in Toronto Specifically at The Fermenting Cellar.

The green carpet entrance. Matched my outfit!  

 What I Wore:

Jessica Simpson Floral Blouse

Dooney + Bourke Vintage Bucket Handbag

L'ICONA BY SALVATORE FERRAGAMO

After reading about Salvatore Ferragamo's new website that allows you to order a custom pair of their iconic Vara style footwear, I was hooked. After the site launched May 1st, 2013 I have been dreaming of a pair of my very own custom Vara's.

WHAT I'M READING: VOGUE US MAY 2013

For my 30th birthday a few months ago (February 5th) my best friend, Meghan gifted me a subscription to VOGUE! It's really been the gift that keeps on giving, every month it's so exciting to receive the new issue of VOGUE addresses to moi. Here are my favourite pages from the May 2013 issue. 

The adaptation of The Great Gatsby is in theatres here, May 10th! 

My cat, Nigo and I are both crazy about this Chanel watch..

Above: curious what MARNI's fragrance smells like..

Below: Maybe a great alternative cover option, a lot of people on twitter were not crazy about the cover chosen for this issue of Vogue.

I can't wait to see the movie, The Great Gatsby!

KENZO COLLABORATIONS ROCK

KENZO is not only a very creative brand on the runway, but off the runway as well. First KENZO had me smitten over their Vans shoes collaboration, and now I am completely coveting this hat from their New Era partnership.
