Along with the ultra chic boyfriend blazer trend that’s prevalent for this Fall and Winter, another key wardrobe piece to have is a military inspired blazer. I came across a really cute one at Anthropologie and I thought it would be fun to create an outfit around it.
Forever 21 Attached Striped Scarf Top ($17.80) – This is a cute top that kills two birds with one stone. The oatmeal colour and black go really well together.
American Eagle Artist Jeans ($39.50) – With this look I chose to go with these dark wash jeans because although jeans are casual the dark …read more

You need a red bag. No really, you do! No other colour will catch the eye as easily or garner compliments as much as a red handbag. The key is finding the right bag in the right shade. A red bag isn’t just for Fall or Winter, it’s something you can carry year-round. For those times when you want to punch up your outfit or stand apart from the crowd.
The Marc Jacobs Quilted Leather Stam Satchel ($1350) has been reincarnated for the, 2009 Resort Collection, into this gorgeous red shade. It’s quite stunning and the satchel shape of the Stam …read more

I’ve showcased a lot of high-end and mid-range bags this month and while they’re all quite beautiful and sometimes worth the splurge, not everyone has the means to pick up an expensive piece of arm candy. Cue in Urban Outfitters, I can always count on UO to have cute accessories.
Here are a few bags by Deux Lux that will make your fall and winter outfits pop!
Asymmetrical Zip Bag ($68) I adore the green colour, so pretty and can work for either Fall or Spring. This one is also available in a pretty navy blue and brown.
Studded Hobo ($68) Similar to …read more

Some of the big trends this season include variations of the colour grey, lots of hardware, patterns and textures which can be found on clothing, shoes and accessories. It can become a bit overwhelming trying to decide how to go about incorporating at least one of those trends into your existing wardrobe or an outfit. So, I decided to come up with an outfit that combines all four trends into one complete outfit.
This is an ensemble you can wear on a fun night out on the town with your girls or special someone.

Say you have a not too casual but not too dressy dinner plan with a few of your friends or maybe you have a dinner date with your significant other, whatever will you wear?! A great pair of jeans are one of my must-haves for a fun night out. I gravitate towards dark washes because they’re the most flattering and they have a more ‘dressed up’ feel.
Here’s an outfit idea for those fun nights out using a pair of dark wash skinny jeans.

One of the best parts of my job is discovering new designers. There are loads of well known, new and upcoming handbag designers on the market today and it can get a little overwhelming for handbag lovers, especially for those of you who might be new to the whole designer bag market. I’d like to establish a new series where I will profile new and established bag designers so we can all get to know the artists behind each brand and new “it” bag.
Let’s start off with a designer you may not be all too familiar with, Gorjana. You …read more

Upon assessing my wardrobe this week, I realized I’m in dire need of skirts. Lots of them! I stopped by Forever 21 and found a really cute black and white floral full skirt and fell in love. I’d link to it but they seem to no longer have it on the website.
Fortunately (for me and you!), they have other equally adorable skirts that will look fabulous this fall and beyond.
Brocade Skirt ($24.80)
Satin Tiered Skirt ($19.80)
Mesh Tulle Skirt ($17.80)
Striped Bead Accent Skirt ($22.80)
All of these skirts would look amazing for Fall dressed up or down. Add a simple tee or …read more
