What I Wore: Copycat

charlotte-olympia-jacob

Last Sunday, le bf and I took our amazing moms out to brunch at La Societe to celebrate Mother’s Day with yummy French Toast and Eggs Benny…because nothing says “I love you” like eggs and Nutella.

To mark the special occasion, I wore a pretty dress, paired with my fave kitty flats. And if my outfit looks strangely familiar to you…it might be due to the fact that I “borrowed” it from the lovely Alexa Chung. Only her dress was Valentino, and mine is from Jacob. That’s right…my outfit is decidedly more affordable AND (partially) Canadian. I mean, come on…I win, right? Right? Tell me I win and I’ll send you a cookie…it may or may not be fully baked and/or burned, but it’s the thought that counts, people!

Style Fille: Winter White

Today I give you not one, not two, but three Style Filles! From SJP’s snowflake-inspired feathered Louis Vuitton number, to Alexa Chung’s Christopher Kane sparkler, to Cate (The Great) Blanchett’s see-through, yet classy Louis Vuitton frock, I am seriously loving this White After Labour Day trend! Don’t you?

And since I am seriously biased towards those kitschy-yet-cute Charlotte Olympia Kitty heels that Alexa is sporting, I will let you decide which star looked best in winter white. Take the poll below, and cast your vote!

Style Fille: Alexa Chung in Charlotte Olympia

Damn, Alexa Chung looks good! Valentino LRD with my favoritest flats by Charlotte Olympia – makes for an unexpected pairing, but in my opinion it works beautifully. Still drooooooling over these flats…and, boy, if I wasn’t on a strict budget right now, I would be all over them!

What do you think of Alexa’s outfit? Share in the comments.

Spot On

Le boyfriend’s first reaction at seeing me in my new-ish Zara leopard print coat was sheer horror. To him, leopard print in general, translates into a trashy Eastern European woman with no taste. As a person of East European descent, I don’t take any offence to his aversion – I’ve seen my fair share of horrid use of leopard print, zebra print, etc. back home to be able to agree with him that animal prints can definitely go wrong if worn inappropriately. But… can such an awesome and stylish group as Aurora Sansone, Kate Moss, Alexa Chung, Viviana Volpicella, Poppy Delevigne, and Julia Restoin-Roitfeld really be wrong? Sure, they could. But to me, in my humble opinion, a leopard print coat is a chic top-up to a simple outfit. And that’s that. Love it or hate it.

Halloween 2009: Celeb Costumes

jimmy pattison

After a brief case of the “mondays” I am back to normal posting schedule! Yay!

Since babies are so in right now (just ask Bruno), lots of celeb parents were out this past weekend trick-or-treating with their little ones. And surprisingly, my fave Halloweened out celebrity this year was not Heidi Klum, but Gwen Stefani dressed as Jessie from Toy Story! I also loved her last year’s cat costume. I think it’s truly a testament of Gwen’s beauty…she can pull off virtually any look and still stay gorgeous. My other faves this year included Ellen as Oprah Magazine, Nick Lachey and Vanessa Minnillo as Frankenstein and his bride, and Jimmy Fallon as Robert Pattinson. Also, though I really don’t want to promote this toxic duo, Twit and Twat’s portrayal of Jon and Kate plus Hate was quite funny and scary at the same time. Maybe celebrity impersonation is what Spencer Pratt and his plastic wife should stick to? Just a thought.

Anna Wintour Bitchface

anna wintour

Don’t you just love it? Anna Wintour gives the best bitchface ever! She seems to absolutely abhor the seating arrangements at the Twenty8Twelve fashion show in London. Obviously, those two youngsters are not worthy of sharing the same air as La Wintour. And her body language??? She should just hold her nose and this picture would be perfect! Some girls have all the luck!

DKNY Jeans Fall 2009

hilary-duff-femme-01

What do you think about the newly released DKNY Jeans Fall 2009 ads? They were shot by Scott Schuman (The Sartorialist) in his signature street photography style. The Femme Fall line was designed by Hilary Duff. Why? Because every singer is a designer, and every actress is a designer too. It’s that easy, didn’t you know?

I don’t particularly like Hilary’s style, but the campaign does not leave me cringing (except for white pumps with leggings…eek). Maybe it’s the photographs, or the styling by Tabitha Simmons, or maybe it just isn’t bad. Kinda makes me crave Fall clothing now…and the summer hasn’t even started yet! How messed up is that?
