I really needed a classic pair of aviators for fall, then voila, these Tom Ford Aviators came along. Not my usual fancy shmancy sunnies, but I’m diggin’ them.

I brought my little puppy CC (aka Chloe Chanel) along with us on a road trip to NYC. I wasn’t sure how she was going to handle traveling but she was so well behaved, happy and cute as ever.

Summer is officially over but I couldn’t resist the Christian Louboutin Super Dombasle Leopard 160mm Platform Sandals from the Fall 2011 Collection. I looked all over for these in nude and black (from the Summer 2011 Collection) but couldn’t find them in my size, so when I discovered them in Leopard,  it was love at first sight. I wore them in St.Maarten for the first time and on a recent trip to NYC and despite the 160mm they are just as super comfy as they are super platforms. Perhaps I’ll try to squeeze in a couple more wears before the weather hits below freezing.

The day after I returned from St.Maarten, I attended a beautiful wedding on a farm in the middle of no where (near Woodstock, Ontario) and it was one of the most amazing weddings I have ever had the honor of attending. About 10 years ago, Sarah was my first ever intern when I styled fashion shows for Toronto Fashion Week. She is also my former Fashionably Yours employee and one of the sweetest women I know. She is currently in charge of event planning at this cool restaurant in Liberty Village called School Toronto. She got hitched to her long time bf Blake and put together all the creative details herself. (along with her handy husband). I was utterly impressed and had a blast with Michelle, one of my current FY employees. I’ve never been on a farm and I wasn’t entirely sure what to wear, so Michelle and I decided to both wear long dresses for the occassion…surely it wasn’t your average farm. lol. Check out the super cute photos…

My dear friend DJ WIKKED spent a few weeks as guest DJ at Tanta SXM (St. Maarten), so of course Ania & I rolled through to support. It was good times all around in SXM. This super cute pink romper by Rachel Roy has been sitting in my closet waiting for somewhere fun to rock it.

Shoutout to Mannie from Tantra SXM, who showed us a really good time xo

If you have never been to St.Martin (French West Indies) and ever decide to visit, there’s one place you should consider and that’s Loterie Farm Nature Reserve. Whether you like nature or extreme sports or neither, you will love Loterie Farm. It’s a secret hideway nestled in the hillside of Pic Paradis on the French Saint Martin. It’s an unforgettable place where you can wine, dine, climb, hike and glide over the treetops. We booked the one hour Fly Zone which included zip-lining, climbing and other obstacles through mountains. No big deal, except that I didn’t pack sneakers and don’t own flats, so I went on a mission to find something functional for me to Zip-line in and lucked out and found these super cute Chanel sneakers!!! Now  I was ready to concur nature’s best. Ania & I zipped from tree to tree like monkeys and literally flew through mountains. It was wild and I will definitely go back and attempt the Extreme 2 hour Fly Zone next time. After an hour of hard work in the sweltering hot sun, we headed to L’eaulounge (located on Loterie Farm), which is a private cabana enclave featuring a natural spring fed swimming pool & Jacuzzi. The water felt like silk & it was one of the most tranquil places I have ever been. Simply a perfect day with great company. Thanks Loterie Farm. We’ll surely be back soon xo

Roughing it in Chanel.

I took an impromptu trip to the Carribean, the beautiful St.Maarten, to spend time with my dear good friend Ania. I’ve heard nothing but amazing things about SXM so it was definitely on my hit list of places to visit hence I took a few days off from @shopFY and hopped on a plane for yet another random trip. We stayed on this beautiful beach front oasis with our own private beach and from the picture perfect blue water to the daily fresh seafood, I was in Heaven. We jammed packed a lot into our short vacation and was surrounded by unbelievable sights and sounds, of which we captured hundreds of photos, but here’s few for now. More SXM updates coming soon.
