VOGUE FOR THE HOLIDAY'S

December Vogue full of classy ideas for the holidays. Here are a few pages that stood out the most.

Still obsessing over the orange Michael Kors structured bag, but gushing over the black quilted for winter..

LOVE this Shepherd sweater Laura Bush is wearing from the GAP. I'm obsessed with fall layers, jackets, and this year add, shearling! Not sure if it's a priority right now but love it.. want it..

Static would drive me insane but love the idea of this red satin suit. Maybe if it was a fitted black velvet suit.. Feature on Lanvin x H&M. The volume of this dress scares me to wear personally but looks fab on all the ladies I have seen wear thus far. What a unique collection.

Vogue Best Dressed issue out now.. Fun :) You know what else is fun? Sparkles, sequins, glitter! From clothes to accessories, tis' the season to be jolly!

Mr. Tom Ford is back. It's been in the news Tom Ford is the next H&M collaboration, but until I hear it from Mr. Ford or H&M, I'm not going to get too excited. Plus I was hoping for a more unique design house for the spring, and Tom for fall... Just a thought/hope.

FELINE FRENZY

Love giving homage to my cat and embracing the trend of animal print. Last year I bought a great Jimmy Choo for H&M zebra striped handbag and this year this cute $15 top at H&M. I added my new Joe Fresh sweater over top and light wash denim. Feeling a need to buy black jeans..

MISSONI AND LOUIS VUITTON WARMS MY SOUL

3 more days until December, I can't believe it! It's getting cold out and all I want to do is hibernate; watch movies, read magazines, surf the web, in front of the fireplace. I wanted to post and share these amazing videos of my favourite Spring 2011 show, Missoni and my favourite Fall/Winter 2010 show, Louis Vuitton. Both shows memorable (epic to me) in their own way. Thanks to FataleFashion I can enjoy watching these and more, over and over again. :)

BOOK CLUB: MARIE CLAIRE DECEMBER

I have had the December Marie Claire for a few weeks now, and just can't put it down. Great editorial features I can't get enough of. I asked for Marie Claire subscription for Christmas :)

LOVE LETTERS FROM NEW YORK

My boyfriend was in NYC last weekend and sent me amazing pictures everyday. I couldn't believe it when he sent me the pictures of Ports 1961 window front and Diane Von Furstenburg rooftop. He thought the dress in Ports window reminder him of my favourite maxi dress I bought this past summer.

ANNA, RACHEL, NOW LANVIN

Trying to make the most of winter with layers :) Wearing my t-shirt I bought at Anna Sui in NY, Rachel Rachel Roy angora cardigan (recent score), and LANVIN for H&M necklace!!! Cherry on the top. Happy Holidays!!!

COWL NECK IS BACK, IN BEIGE BLACK AND BLUE

I love the warmth and volume of cowl neck sweaters, I found this one last winter at H&M. Tights bought a few months ago, H&M of course, and boots I bought last year at Aldo. Timeless yet whimsical Betsey Johnson watch, Christmas gift from my boyfriend a few years ago :)

HOT OFF THE PRESS

Last Friday I found this issue of HELLO! Style Icons at my boyfriends office. He had forgotten to bring it home to me.. tisk, tisk ;) Well I'm sure glad I spotted it under a stack of his magazines, it's an amazing issue! Earlier that day before I scored that special issue, I received my December ELLE Canada which I also spent the whole weekend flipping through. Apparently, ELLE Canada has an electronic version they can know send but as much as I want to save trees I LOVE flipping the pages and holding it up to my face, not squinting at the computer screen after a long day of work.

Yesterday I was feeling the blues. What helps turn my frown upside down? Owning the new Vogue and Marie Claire.

I picked up these amazing storage boxes from IKEA for my magazines. LOVE them. Need another set, two isn't enough I'm not ready to recycle any yet..

TOO CABLE KNIT TOO QUIT

Finally wearing the cable knit sweater I have been hunting down since I feel in love with it at Lou Lou magazine's block party. Paired it with my favourite khaki green pants I bought at H&M at the beginning of the season and vintage inspired boots from Aldo. Just missing khaki green nail polish.. Or my Green-which Village.. I would paint my nails tonight green, but have been obsessing over red since I bought my Lanvin x H&M necklace on the weekend..

MY LANVIN LOOK

Just needed the heels to complete the ensemble, but a girl must remember about her budget heading into the holiday season..

MY LANVIN X H&M STORY I DID IT FOR THE NECKLACE

Pictures taken yesterday after gathering maybe 5 hours of sleep after pulling my all-nighter for the Lanvin x H&M launch. When the collection was released my jaw dropped over the yellow dresses, whimsical t-shirts, but when I saw this iconic statement necklace was going to be apart of the collection that's what had my heart on the hook to go on this crazy adventure with my girlfriends. It's made from metal not plastic, so feels quite strong, durable, and luxurious :D Score!!! I called my local H&M store today to see if they had any handbags left, now kinda wish I would have bought a handbag instead of my avant-garde dress. But I think this fashionista can make the best of it, I do find it iconic and very Lanvin, it's scares the boyfriend a little though.. Lol.
