Spring Things

Spring is about rebirth, being in Canada, the thawing of snow and ice means that I can finally bust out the shorts, take off my coat, wear nice shoes, and feel light and fresh. New fashion in spring is always exciting. My recommendation for shopping is to go with light fabrics like chiffon, silk and cotton blends. These fabrics are more breathable because they aren't man made. I just loaded up on several great sale items from Urban Outfitters, which resemble some of the pieces from the Hermes line for fall, Miu miu, and with small resemblance to the Bottega Veneta line. With great brights, fun accessories and great nudes for spring I would highly recommend it for spring shopping.  

New York Fashion week pics up now

New York fashion week fall 2011 is now available to see at the Fashion Magazine website. You can check out some Vera Wang, BCBG, and Micheal Kors looks that were really well made and reflected the casual elegance and class that is associated with this season. There are great neutrals that are all showing up as well, which I think reflect the direction that the fall season is taking.

Bottega Veneta

The new fall RTW line by Tomas Maier Is one of the best lines I have seen for fall. I honestly melted, I've never paid much attention to this brand before however I feel very inspired by it and want to buy everything in the line. I always love to find new pieces and styles so what my advice to you is that you should always look and try to find new pieces and line that you may not have liked before and try to acquaint yourself with as many elements of fashion as you can. The great thing about fashion is that there's always something new, there's always something to inspire you further and keep the love of fashion alive.

Fall 2011 Celine

Loved the new line! There is something very European about the way this line was put together. Although a lot of the models in the show (which you can check out on Vogue.com in the collections section) had godawful horse faces. I don't know why some of these models are selected. The entire fashion industry is so concerned with being original that they will take a lot of models and piece and ideas that are just flat out weird. Anyways, the line was great the use of leather and furs mixed together reminded me of hunting parties that I have seen in movies. I also really liked that the line was sporting the new "midi" length skirt.

I like the lines in this look and the combination of different fabrics. The cut and the combination of the fabrics work well together to make a sleek look

    This outfit reminds me of a riding party and that is why it makes me so happy. I love the cinched waist with the belt and the fur combined with leather here for that real English Shooting party vibe.















This look below makes me think of aristocrats in Europe who would just drape themselves in fur, except this look is a much more modern take on it.

This dress is a very understated sexy to me and it too has that nice combination of textures that you can see on the first outfit.
