It was a quiet late summer evening in Toronto, so I decided to share these silly photos taken after having dessert at my favorite place called Caffe Demetre on Bloor Street West.

My bag is a Regina Italia purse made of leather. My shoes are the first pair that I ever bought from Michael Kors, and my shorts are my Daisy Dukes that I bought from Abercrombie & Fitch.

Twenty8 Twelve Tee

Talula Hoodie

Abercrombie&Fitch Cleo Shorts

Michael Kors Wedges

Regina Italia Handmade Leather Purse

A.V. Max Cuff

By the way, I totally forgot to show you my Michael Kors boots that I bought last week and and a Brette Sandler silk cover-up that I bought about 10 minutes ago!!!

Beach cover ups are new to me, but this one will look amazing with my

Moschino bathing suit and Miss Trish of Capri sandals :)

Hello Darlings,

As my favorite stores continue to have amazing sales, today I ventured to Yorkdale Shopping Centre with my mother. I continue to slowly pick up items that will transition me into the fall.

The shocker of the day was Zara, which looked like a tornado went through it. Clothes were on the floor, in piles on the tables, and scattered all over the place. I've heard amazing things about Zara from other blogger's, but my experience discouraged me. So my question goes out to you my darlings, does a messy store and poor customer service discourage you from buying (in that moment or in the future)???

EVENING...As for today's outfit, well I love wearing outfits that do not require much effort and transition from day to night. I am a firm believer that it is better to be overdressed then under-dressed :) That's the main reason why I love AA Disco pants. The only difference that I settled for is my hair, I put in into a neat ponytail and added a cute bow headband.

I am wearing:

Susana Monaco Top

American Apparel Disco Pants

Mackage Leather Jacket

Bloch Patent Leather flats

Gustto Cokera Purse

Accessories&Beyond Bracelets

H&M headband

Hello Darlings,

I love this simple Maggie Ward dress with a tint of sparkle. It is comfortable and goes with anything. Tonight I wore it with my Mackage leather jacket. Never thought a leather jacket would work for me but it gave character to my outfit - and made me feel like a " bad ass".

Tonight's soiree was a dinner party at a restaurant followed by Romeo and Juliet Ballet. If you live in Toronto, the performance is incredible. Visual and emotionally charged - you won't be able to take your eyes off the stage. I am still overwhelmed how wonderful it was :)

As for my outfit, well I went for simple...with a touch of sparkle :)

I wore my Ruthie Davis "screen" heels with Swarovski crystals. These shoes make me feel like a princess and to match the patent leather of the shoe, I wore patent leather Coach wristlet. I really love how the Swarovski crystals on the heels complement the sparkle of the dress and the patents leather adds a bit a little something to the entire outfit.

I wore my all time favorite shoes by Ruthie Davis. These shoes always make me feel like a princess and to match the patent leather of the shoe, I wore patent leather Coach wristlet. I really love how the Swarovski crystals on the heels go perfectly with the sparkle of the dress and the patents leather adds a bit a little something to the entire outfit. I kept everything else, including hair and make up, fairly simple.... just the way I like it, simple with beautiful details :)

Tomorrow's plan is to visit the Art Gallery of Ontario for my art critique assignment. I am really excited, because the gallery was just renovated by Frank Gehry - so I can't wait to see building as well. I will try to take some pictures .

I wish you all a lovely and fun weekend :)

With Love... Marta

Hello Darlings,

Dressing for a dinner party can be a pain. Stressing over being over-dressed under-dressed, too conservative, or too fashion forward is what I struggling with, so this is what I came up with....

Dinner Party Neutrals: I chose a look with a gray and black silhouette, which made me feel confident even though I can be shy when meeting new people. Pairing with opaque tights seemed a bit bulky for this particular look, so I decided on sheer black and a leather jacket.

Next time, I will definately try this dress with my hair up, to accentuate the deep cut. I always hate deciding on hair up or down... ugghh

Some of you are probably getting tired of all the gray. I think that it is an awesome alternative to black, but I am looking forward to spring and bringing back some color into my life.

I am still working on my Spring "inspirations" and "to-buy list". Usually, anything and everything to do with shopping is pretty easy, but not this time. It's coming, I promise... actually I think that I am going to break up " Spring inspiration" into multiple posts.

I would like to send out special thanks to freeTEYme and

Nicole from The Wardrobe Chronicles for the amazing awards.
