Chanel Spring 2010

While I know I am a few months out of date with this, I must comment because I am in love. Today while I was "pretending" to work, I thought an excellent use of my time would be to watch all the most recent Chanel shows on line. Good choice? I think yes. This collection stood out to me more than Pre Fall 2010. I love the soft colours and ALL of the footwear. I never thought the day would come but I am really beginning to love wedges and heavier footwear. I think I can thank Vero for this. Here are a few of my favourite looks, because they are just too good not to blog.

Want

I curse Kaitlyn for exposing me to All Saints. I want this dress and want to wear it all the time with my black over the knee boots. Yes please.

I heart fall...

I am so pleased that fall is approaching. It is definitely my favourite season. I wish it could be September all year. Fall makes me want to buy coats and boots and scarves. I started my fall shopping this past weekend. I wanted a few core items; new boots, skinny jeans, and a boyfriend blazer. I was successful in finding the boots I wanted, as well as some scarves and basic tees/camis. I am still in search of the perfect blazer, though I am strongly tempted by Aritzia.

Here are my new boots. Do we think it's seasonally appropriate to wear them yet? I probably wear them regardless.

MKA

"When we were going to NYU, I think that was the first time we were aware of the power of our personal style. Not the power of it, but the result of it. Between the big sunglasses and the Starbucks cup and the big sweaters, the hobo-chic thing, we were more shocked than anything. I get it; we were fortunate enough to have really nice clothes, and we put them together in this raggedy way." -Ashley Olsen, marie claire, September 2009.

I am fairly convinced that I want to be one of the Olsen twins. I would like it if they adopted me as one of their own. I can't get enough of their style, and I am IN LOVE with both Elizabeth and James and The Row. While I prefer to wear more tailored, structured pieces, I have a great deal of respect for the Olsen's personal style. I wish I had the money and power to pull it off like they do.

Homage to Talula Babaton

My most recent extravagance- a tailored Talula Babaton skirt from Aritzia. It's beautiful and versatile, if I do say so myself. As of late I have begun to appreciate Aritzia much more. I wish I could afford to furnish my entire closet with items from Aritzia, namely Talula Babaton and Wilfred.

Help!

What does one wear to a Blue Jays game these days? One who is absolutely not planning to wear jeans and a t-shirt of any sort. One who rarely dresses down for any occasion. Thanks in advance.

What she wants...

Thanks to Paish, I am now unable to stay away from Polyvore.


Basically everything I need to own:
