Tickled Pink

Hi hunnies!  Sorry that I haven't posted in the past few days :(  It's just that I started working out again (shooting for a daily routine - yikes!) and my body is so sore in the mornings that my mind cannot focus on putting together a great outfit.  Instead, all I want to do is get ready, quick, then get out of the house and off to work.  Since Spring is just around the corner, I thought it's time to get that hot body that I've been dreaming of ready for Summer show-off.

And speaking of Spring, I thought I'd get started with the vibrant colours now so at least something will brighten up my day even if the sun refuses to.  So I put this outfit together, and unfortunately, my camera died after only 3 lousy shots, but I hope you get the drift.






I might branch out just a tad little from my neutral minimalistic looks this Spring and Summer and experiment with colours and patterns.  I am definitely feeling bold and brave both in my workouts and fashion choices so stay tuned!

The neutral combinations with the shot of red and fuschia and the two-toned blazers...GENIUS!

I spend time in Eaton Center more than at my own apartment (is that sad?). 

My girls and I went to Dazzling Lounge last night (our regular Thursday spot) and had a fantastic time, as always.  Except that the next morning, I'm left feeling borderline hungover because of the $33 Cabernet Merlot bottles we get and the Red Dragon roll that I always eat, to the point that the waitress, Mary (hi Mary!) don't even have to ask what I am having for the night.  The other sad thing is that everytime I want to take photos of the night at Dazzling, my camera battery coincidentally is always at 15% or less.  I do promise, however, that the next time I am there, I will share the event with you as it truly is such a fun place to be.  Let's just say that there is a phenomenal live band that covers the greatest R&B hits and the best djs in the city, with guests appearances from celebrities (you really don't know who is going to turn up that night)!














Hence, these photos are a true representation of my mood today - relaxed and maybe a little moody, lol.

Have a great weekend everyone!!! xo

Light Read

Almost everyday, I would stop by Indigo for a quick glance at fashion books and magazines to absorb new inspirations.  I love discovering new designers, styles, ensembles and ideas.  This is what keeps the fashion industry thriving - the contribution of so many creative minds who have the confidence to boldly present their unique individual styles through clothing and acessories.  Fashion is like cooking, you mix and improvise with delicious ingredients in so many ways and you come up with endless recipes to a mouthwatering outcome.  That's why it is important for me to be constantly researching for new looks and ideas, which in turn, helps me discover my own style and hopefully also inspire others.













I am only one out of thousands of fashion bloggers here in Canada, but as this wall says...
"The World of Fashion Needs More Canada".

Headbow

Just a quick post of my outfit today.  It's snowing heavily here in Toronto so I couldn't really bear to stand outside for a long period of time, hence the lack of photos to choose from. 

I bought this headbow 2 years ago and I barely wore it since I would get funny looks from strangers, lol.  But now, I see more and more posts of this baby on other bloggers so I thought what the heck, let me rock it again ;)










And don't worry, these are not the shoes I wore outside in the snow - I swap into my Sorels for that!

Have a great day guys!

Winter Whites

Forever 21 faux fur coat | H&M cardigan | vintage shirt | Zara jeggings and beenie | Mimosa platforms

Hi my lovelies!  I gotta say, I know it's not Spring yet, but I really felt like rockin' an all-white outfit (whites are the upcoming trend for Spring/Summer 2011), and I think it turned out great!  I had to play with the photo's lighting, beacuse they all turned out dark due to the gloomy weather here in Toronto.

The faux fur coat is an absolute fave of mine!  It looks good in casual or sophisticated outfits and it's really warm!










My platforms are not exactly weather-appropriate, but I have always thought that dressing for the weather is overrated, LOL - I know, I'm a little crazy!

A Little Bit of Print

Hi everyone!  I hope you guys are having a great start to your week!  Zara has a major after Christmas sale and I scored this leopard print cardigan and these pleated trousers as well, amongst many, lol.  As you may have noticed, Zara is my favourite store and I can always find something fabulous in their chic selections.  Don't miss Zara's great sale and let me know what you guys come home with ;)










Also, I was about to do an "Oxfords Search" post as I wanted to get a really great pair of leather oxfords and to my luck, I found these at Aldo, for sale!  They are the best ones I have seen so far - simple and classic and I was beyond excited when I found them and knew I had to have them.  So here they are, being ruined in the snow, lol, but I do love these, a lot!

Victoria, thank you so much for giving me this beautiful shade of red lipstick from Joe Fresh!  It sure brightened my outfit :)

Here are just a few of my recent purchases.  Although my plan to explore College and Queen West streets didn't happen (next weekend for sure), I still had a great weekend with my bestfriend and her beautiful daughter!

I hope you all had a great weekend as well and an even better upcoming week!
