UNIF Loafers Have Me Looking At Oxblood Again
| Looking back at Unif’s new release of their oxblood Hellraiser loafer, I am forced to turn tail back to one of my favorite happy colors for fall 2011. I’ve found another release of another favorite; Topshop’s leather trim boyfriend coat, from mustard into this rich red. For those continuing to love leather, J Brand’s leggings [...] |  |
SSENSE Sale Incl. Current Season Pamela Love Jewelry
| SSENSE may be a Canadian company, but what originated as their Black Friday sale has continued into an even deeper disount haven. I’ve been creeping on Pamela Love’s FW11 collection since it appeared, and to my delight have noticed that her current season pieces have been slashed 50% off retail prices. These are some of [...] |  |
WINTER LOVE: Leather And Knit Gloves
| Gloves are not a negotiable acessory for most smart winter dressers. Myself, I’ve been too vain to forgo my chunky rings to actually protect my hands this season [so far], so fingers crossed I don’t end up with Madonna Claws by 2012. These are four of my favorites, including the best priced item which picks [...] |  |
HOLIDAY TREND: Black Dresses & Gold Embellishments
| As much as I’ve resisted the anything-but-droll movement of holiday style postings, it’s been a fruitless attempt – I’ve been pretending one can still be a baker without actually baking. Regardless, I’ve stumbled upon a collection of six black dresses featuring some rather delightful embellishments. These are largely more expensive pieces, as sequin and beading [...] |  |
SSense BLACK FRIDAY Sale Details
| SSense may be a Canadian luxury retailer, but they are joining in with the American shopping frenzy today and offering up to 50% off on amazing pieces we won’t have to pay duties on (well, we as in the Canadians reading this). Either way, there are some ultimate pieces that are available; my favorite pieces [...] |  |
Trend: Silver HOLIDAY Dresses
| I’m on the extreme silver holiday dress bender; I’ve just acquired myself a Theory Felda dress (shown below, also avail from Net-A-Porter for a hair cheaper than at Shopbop) for my Christmas party season, and now I’m going crazy for subtle shimmer silvers. Trash the huge, sparse sequins; that just looks trashy and as if [...] |  |
Holiday Switch-Up: BUSTIERS & MAXI SKIRTS
| Instead of taking up the typical party dress course this holiday season, grab a bustier and a maxi skirt. This will result in a very mix and match friendly look, which maximizes the amount of wear you can get out of each piece. For those wanting to go ultra glam, acquire a larger bib or [...] |  |
SALE: Chris Habana Crucifix, False Idol, Nailed Jewelry
| Chris Habana jewelry is rough, pagan and sincerely amazing now that Prive has it on sale at over half off. My personal favorites are the gunmetal pearl cross necklace ($88 from $195), gunmetal crucifixion necklace ($70 from $150), False Idol necklace ($70 from $150), Swallowed Pearl necklace ($82 from $185) and the Rose and Thorn [...] |  |
PLEASE HELP Fund My Photo Residency @ A WORD OF ART In Cape Town, South Africa!
| I’m going to Cape Town, South Africa to be an artist in residence at A Word Of Art during the month of February. I’m looking to source some financial support, as this jaunt is going to be quite the pricey one. Total cost of the trip [flight, room/board, film, food] is going to surface around [...] |  |
HOLIDAY TREND: Sequin Jackets
| The time of the sequin dress and glitter trouser has passed, and it seems that the most viable option for instantly holiday-ifying and of your regular looks can be with a sequin jacket. We’re seeing tuxedo cuts, crops and collarless pieces are all surfacing; your best bet it to avoid the standard (and very dull) [...] |  |
