$150 SHOE DAILY: Versace x Giuseppe Zanotti

IMG 04271 519x389 $150 SHOE DAILY: Versace x Giuseppe Zanotti

I recently tweeted this photo of my Versace red booties and Ania’s Giuseppe Zanotti Chain Lace Booties that we wore in Las Vegas, then gave my TWITTER FOLLOWERS a chance to win $150 CREDIT at Fashionably Yours. In the past, I’ve given away $100 CREDIT at FY for guessing the brand of shoes on my feet, so I thought it would be fun to add Ania’s amazing booties and give away little extra bonus for the holidays!

Congratulations to @backseatstylers who was the first person to guess both boots correctly. We look forward to meeting you and helping you spend the $150 CREDIT!!!

OUTFIT: Ralph Lauren preppy meets YSL & Chanel

IMG 1908PS 519x713 OUTFIT: Ralph Lauren preppy meets YSL & Chanel

I have a thing for preppy classics like this Ralph Lauren oversized boyfriend blazer, which is yet another amazing find from Fashionably Yours. It brings me back to my naughty private school days when I had to wear a uniform with a crested blazer. Click here for a close-up on my Cartier sunnies…

Clearly leopard is one of the hottest trends of the season, but regardless of how quickly it seems to make its way in and out of fashions’ top 10, it’s one trend that I consider a classic. I don’t think I could ever get sick of animal prints which is why I love this vibrant blue leopard YSL silk scarf so much, being that it puts a fancy twist on the traditional brown print. It’s one of those extraordinary pieces that I might just keep in my closet forever.

Cartier represents pure luxury and is known for sinfully expensive jewelry and accessories. I miraculously scored a pair of vintage Cartier Santos Dumont aviator sunglasses in 18kt gold and platinum from Fashionably Yours. I especially love the signature Cartier fine details and you can just feel the impeccable quality. This rare find was likely sitting in someone’s Grandparents’ closet and are practically untouched, making this a prestigious addition to my rapidly growing eyewear collection.

EVENT: Frocktail Party 2010 for Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation

Monday, November 15th, 2010

Screen shot 2010 11 12 at 3.56.39 PM 520x337 EVENT: Frocktail Party 2010 for Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation

On Friday, November 12, I attended the second annual Frocktail Party, a stylish evening in support of the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation, which took place at 99 Sudbury in Toronto. Frocktail, not your average charity event, is an auction of hundreds of designer dresses, donated by celebrities, retailers, and designers, combined with cocktails and an evening of dancing. Fashionably Yours donated a Missoni dress (below) for the cause and appraised the dresses before the event. All the dresses that didn’t sell at the event are now available at Fashionably Yours and the proceeds will go to the JDRF. I actually won the bid on an amazing dress!!! I’ll be sure to show you when I wear it. xo

OUTFIT: Inspired by Kanye x Lanvin for H&M Media Preview

IMG 1167PIC 520x714 OUTFIT: Inspired by Kanye x Lanvin for H&M Media Preview

I gain inspiration for outfits every day, from so many different things in my surroundings, my store, the streets, magazines and online. Sometimes it’s just from shopping and seeing beautiful things hanging on a rack and often times it starts with a shoe I’m dying to wear. I had this vintage over-sized red blazer sitting in my closet for months now and was beginning to think I would never wear it until I saw Kanye West wearing this bright red suit with a leopard top underneath (at the JayZ Concert on my last trip to NYC). I couldn’t help but thinking that Kanye’s red/leopard combo might just look great with a girly twist. The only problem now is, that I wish I could wear it every day. (Why the hell not? Kanye wore it to the MTV VMA Awards, the JayZ Concert, and the BET Awards. Who knows where else? lol). What do you think?

Lugged my Chanel Jumbo XL Shopper Tote bag with thick gold chain, intentionally almost as obnoxious as Kanye’s Horus Chain lol. It weighs a ton, hence why I don’t carry it very often.

OUTFIT: Halloween at FY Wonderland

Monday, November 1st, 2010

IMG 0937PIC 520x713 OUTFIT: Halloween at FY Wonderland

Happy Halloween!!!! I love Halloween because it gives us all a reason to get dressed up and get silly. The festivities started on Friday this year and lasted the entire weekend, being that it fell on a Sunday this year. I spent it at Fashionably Yours, my fashion Wonderland,  dressed as the Queen of Hearts and Michelle (my FY Angel), was dressed as Alice. Jaystrut was suppose to be the Madhatter but we found this ridiculous fat suit and it was just too hilarious. It comes with a battery operated built in fan that blows air into it and provided us with hours of laughter. I hope everyone had a blast this weekend. xo

Day 2 of LG Fashion Week, I attended the Line Knitwear S/S 2011 Show and brought my girl Nebby along and met up with my FY boy JayStrut. Nebby always adds a fun little twist on life. If you know her, you know what I mean. If you don’t, check her out at The Segment or keep up with her entertaining tweets.

I wore this asymmetrical cutout dress by Mason, an LA based brand founded by designer Michelle Mason. She has an awesome edgy collection of dresses and fashion forward pieces that I started collecting a couple seasons ago, so you’ll be seeing a lot more Mason around here. I didn’t even get a chance to take my jacket off, so you can’t really see the amazing cutout detailing of this dress, hence I’ll surely be wearing this again one day soon.

GJ GRETA OUTFIT 500x666 OUTFIT: Heavily Studded FY Find x Red Chanel

I love this heavily studded blazer I scored from Fashionably Yours and wore to the Greta Constantine SS 2011 Event on Friday. I’m not even sure who makes it because it didn’t have a tag when I got it, but I’m pretty sure it’s from Zara. Regardless, it’s fab and it’s found a happy home in my closet.
