My Passion in Hayden Cashmere

On August 13, 2008 · 16 Comments
Hello Darlings,

This blog is very personal and truly does represent who I am. So today I thought to write about my studies in fine art and architecture at the University of Toronto (with a few style photos interspersed of my new Hayden Cashmere sweater - since this is a fashion blog after all).

Here's a bit of info about my life as a student .... :P
I am going into my third year at the University of Toronto doing a specialist in Fine Art and Architecture. I am also learning German and doing research with four different professors, and it is my hope that one day I can share my passion by educating and further researching in this field... maybe doing my PhD or becoming a professor myself, following in the footsteps of my family.... who always inspire and support me (Дуже дякую за вашу підтримку) Therefore, I have decided to include the occasional Fine Art and Architecture posts... I hope that you enjoy them and if there is anything that you would like to suggest, please do so my leaving me a comment or e-mailing me :D

Hello Darlings, AHH, CAN'T STOP MYSELF .................. I am getting worried that I may be a little out of hand with my guilty pleasure - shopping online. At the comfort of my bed with a cup of strong espresso, I love to indulge in a little bit of innocent shopping.... three hours later and my order is in. I try to justify to myself that this is my wardrobe prep for the fall time and that there is no way I would find better deals later on....AND Today, it was all about Bluefly and here are my finds, LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK .... and HOW OFTEN DO YOU SHOP ON LINE? ANY FAVORITE SITES? Habitual Pitch Black " Placebo" Skinny Jeans I've been searching for a black pair of skinnies for a while now, until I found these babies and the price was irresistible. Plus, they can be easily dressed up or down :) Hayden Fuchsia Cashmere Scoopneck Sweater You can never go wrong with cashmere and the splash of colour is something I desperately needed. Alisha Levine Coral Silk Raceback Trapeze Tank Perfect for going out and it would look awesome with the black skinnies. A.V. Max Silver Glitter Lucide Stud Cuff
Bluefly is currently having Summer Sale, check it out . If you spend over $150 you can get $30 off with this code: DOR162B ( if worked for me beautifully) However, they do charge shipping to Canada it was $34.
A visit to a nearby Starbucks and then a stroll in the park with my" better-half"(hehe), was a cheery on top of a perfect day. P .S. I apologize for the "pony- tail" and no make up, lol :)

Current Obsession…. Slouchy Trousers

On July 12, 2008 · 28 Comments
Hello Darlings,

Although I love slim jeans and wear them all the time, I have never gotten used to the idea of leggings. Maybe, it's because I feel naked in them... but whatever reason, I've never worn leggings outside of my dance / pilates class. What is your take on leggings ?

Emporio Armani Fall 2008
 

The LEAN LOOK has been around for ages and I am slowly developing a love/hate relationship with it. Meanwhile, I have totally fallen in love with slouchy trousers. I just love how effortless they looks and how seductive they make you feel. Plus, it is so easy to dress them up or down.

If the full - leg trousers are too drastic of a change from your skinnies, try boyish tapered pants, like the ones seen at the Isabel Marant fall collection.

As for my outfit, I have made a post of these trousers before. But this night, I was inspired by the Emporio Armani Fall 2008 collection, and the way that the gray trousers were beautiful paired with a sexy champaign coloured top. Here' s is my take on this sexy look:

My Favorite: M Rena Sweater

On June 19, 2008 · 10 Comments
Hello Darlings,

For rainy and cold days such as today, I love to wear cozy sweaters. Most everyone has a few favorite pieces in their wardrobe, and mine is this M Rena sweater from Mendocino

 

Tonight's activity was great conversation in company of my bf at our favorite dessert place Caffe Demetre on Bloor Street West in Etobicoke. I had a lovely evening, and felt comfy and warm in my sweater. It finally stopped raining, so hopefully tomorrow brings some sun :)

 

I am wearing:

M Rena Sweater from Mendocino

Zebra T-shirt by Torn

Guido & Mary Jeans

Juicy Couture flats

   

What is your favorite piece in your wardrobe?

With Love...
