[OUTFIT] Grey Knit with an Army Jacket

I was sitting at home, pretty bored. It's getting colder and colder out and the sky is quite grey today, but I still thought I'd got outside and take some photos for a look. I got this wonderful knit sweater/dress from Zara that is the coziest piece I've owned in a long time! I love the high collar.

[BEAUTY] YSL Lipstick - Rose Culte

I'm back home! And I got to see my parents, it's been two whole months. They had gone on a very fancy trip in the Mediterranean and my mom, knowing I love bright lipstick, brought me back an Yves Saint Laurent lipstick! I was so excited when she brought the box out and when I took the lipstick out, I fell in love with the colour! Rose Culte from the Rouge Volupté line.

[OUTFIT] Grey and Black

It's fall, time to wear darker colours. I'm so glad I got that sheer short sleeveless button up from City Downtown, it fits perfectly under thicker long sleeves. The collard pops out and gives the top an extra little umph!

[BEAUTY] Topshop Lipstick

As mentioned in the previous post, I finally checked out Topshop in Toronto. I didn't give in to the Nars bright pink lipstick, because I'm a student, and I wasn't really up for paying 30$ for it. I got the next best thing though! Lips by Topshop lipstick in Brighton Rock. I think it's a fabulous colour! And it's slightly matte. Not really a fall colour, but I like having a little bright pop of colour with my darker fall shades of clothing.

[ACCESSORIES] Topshop Earrings

Topshop is now open at The Bay in Toronto! October 5th was the grand opening. Today, I finally got around to checking it out. They've got lots of wonderful knit sweaters for the fall season, among other things. Anyway, I didn't make any big purchases today, just some darling earrings.

[ACCESSORIES] Vintage Feragamo

I found this lovely pair of vintage Feragamo's! I was so so excited to find them and they were exactly my size. I told my mom and she was so excited about it as well (there's a whole history behind it hehe). I do need to polish the buckle in front a little bit, but I think they are so darling!

[OUTFIT] Lace and Chambray

I was bored...and it's almost time for bed, but I thought I'd make a new Lookbook look. Here it is! And if you have Lookbook as well, hype and comment! :)

[FASHION] The shOws - Day 1

I got the chance to volunteer at the fashion show run by Coco Rocha in Toronto called The shOws. I unfortunately wasn't able to get to my camera for the first show, Thomas Tait, but he had a wonderful collection! I was obsessed with the sunglasses, they were amazing. The second show was for Calla. The prints were very spring like which, of course, is perfect for a spring/summer collection. Her collection also included lots of very neat sunglasses...I want them all...Anyway, I tried my best to sneak some photos! Enjoy :)






Coco!

[DIY] Knit Wool Circle Scarf

I finally got around to get some knitting needles and some yarn and I BUCKLED down and knitted for two afternoons, and by around 5 o'clock today! Produced myself a cozy circle scarf. I wish I had a little bit more yarn, it's a little tight, but I'm sure it'll stretch out a little.

[MODELS] Barbara Palvin & Cara Delevingnge


I simple adore this photo. It really looks like Cara on the right side, if I'm wrong, will someone correct me? But it really does resemble her. Chic and elegant! 

[OUTFIT] Feather Top

One of my courses is to run a store at my school, the Business Lab. Anyway, today I purchased this very cute top from our store! There were only two of them, and they pretty much immediately disappeared. Now I know it isn't a very Fall shirt, but it works well under blazers and sweaters.

[FASHION] Chanel SS 2012 RTW

I'm scrolling through Tumblr, and some photos from the Chanel 2012 spring/summer ready-to-wear collection are showing up. I'm absolutely loving the colours, shapes, and the chic simplicity the collection has. Light mint/sea foam is making a new appearance for spring. It's such a lovely colour and works with many different shapes. This first outfit has to be my favourite!





This cardigan/sweater is to die for!
