Charlotte Olympia strikes again! This time, she’s got me dreaming about her Fall 2012 Luna pumps ($985), which remind me of the Dolce & Gabbana Face Wedges I was coveting back in 2010. So basically, what I’m saying is that it’s been 2 years, and I am still really into silly, kitschy, whimsical things. Sigh. I guess some things never change.
What do you think of Charlotte Olympia’s Luna Pumps? Is it something you’d ever wear? Share in the comments.

Nine West Canada asked me to tell them what a typical day in my life looked like, and so I told them! Go and visit their new(ish) Tumblr page, if you are curious to know what it is I do all day. As it turns out – it’s fairly difficult to remember to take photos of your outfit/shoes/things you do, while you are running around town from meeting to meeting, to lunch, to events, etc…so those pics may or may not have been taken over the course of a week. But I sure did wear these lovely Pamper shoesies all week long…because they go with everything. Seriously, if you want your legs to look long, invest in a pair of nude-colored heels, and you’re set for the summer. Oh, and they are on sale now too. You’re welcome.
Now, go and check out Nine West Canada’s Tumblr, and have a wonderful long weekend!
I Wore: Top – Zara; Skirt, Cuff, Sunglasses – H&M; Bag – c/o Tory Burch; Shoes – c/o Nine West; Necklace, Belt – Forever21
All I want to say to these gorgeous Alaia Nude Lace Up sandals is…come to mama! How perfect would these be for spring/summer? Really effing perfect – that’s how. IF…they weren’t so effing expensive. $1,565? That’s highway robbery if you ask me. ROBBERY! Why are you trying to rob me, Azzedine??? What did I ever do to you???
And yet still…my silly (and impractical) heart just keeps on skipping at the sight of these shoes. What’s wrong with me???

Welcome to the 2nd installment of Style Blog Style-Off, featuring two of my fave Toronto bloggers – Anita Clarke and Gracie Carroll, rocking the hottest shoe collab (possibly) ever! This week’s Style-Off’s challenge was to style a pair of amazing (and surprisingly comfy) Libertine for Aldo Rise ($155) black and white platform wedges, and though I might be biased here…but I think we did pretty darn great! Funny thing…looks like neon green is definitely having its moment in the spotlight, because we certainly did not plan on matching our accent colors!
As with the last Style-Off, the winner gets the bragging rights, and a free drink. And to up the stakes some more, we’ve decided that all the Style-Off winners will get to go face-off in the final Style-Off challenge a few months later. Sounds good? Choose wisely, and vote for your favorite look below!

I love, love, love these Missoni for Converse Spring 2012 kicks! The colors are subtle and soft, the prints are (as expected) gorgeous, and the end result is fresh, clean, and awesome. As a huge fan of both Missoni and Converse, I actually can’t believe I still don’t own a pair. Probably because they are so hard to come by here in Canada. Sigh.
The Missoni for Converse Chuck Taylor All Star shoes will be available beginning April 14th at Missoni boutiques and select Converse First String retailers globally. All shoes will retail for $200.
Will you be buying?

I don’t smoke, nor do I condone smoking, but…I am crushing hard on these Prada “Smoking Lips” shoes. Shoe whimsy sets my heart aflutter, so obviously, now I really want a pair.

As I enter the final stages of my honeymoon prep, I am still stuck trying to find a pair of cute and comfy flats to bring with me. A pair that would go with all (or most of) my outfits, and wouldn’t mangle my feet. I’ve been looking for a while…when I saw them.
These gorgeous Valentino Studded Leather Flat Sandals ($845) are perfection in a pair of lovely gladiator-style flats. And if not for their ridiculously high price tag…they would be mine in a heartbeat. Alas…they are crazy expensive…and therefore will probably stay on my wishlist forever…or until it’s time for summer sales.
Don’t you just hate it when you find something perfect, and yet it’s still out of your reach? I think it’s time to start playing the lottery!

Last week, I stopped by Toronto’s Le Germain hotel for a preview of Converse Spring 2012 collection, hosted by MB Communications. I roamed the room, checking out the new styles, making mental notes as to which pair to buy for le boyfriend this season (the cool-looking ”Leather Jacket” pair below), which pair to buy for myself (the extra lightweight mesh Converse), and which pair to gift to my Converse-loving friend (the black and white one from the Gorillaz collab).
Speaking of special collaborations! Converse once again teamed up with Marimekko and DC Comics, to produce awe-inspiring designs both for the folks that like their Chucks with a side of Batman, and those that like their shoes more on the feminine side.
The newest collaboration with the English musical and visual project Gorillaz, resulted in several graffiti-style pairs, that any self-respecting Converse lover would be happy to add to their collection.
After attending this preview, I can attest that there’s a Converse pair out there for everyone. Spring 2012 brings an abundance of classic Converse shoes in a variety of colors (pastels, anyone?), as well as many new and improved kicks, in leather, canvas, and mesh…printed, zippered, and painted over…oh, my! Pairs that will make you feel like a superstar, or a superhero. All you have to do is decide on which pair to buy.
Converse Spring 2012 Collection is available in Toronto at Get Outside, among other retailers.
See more photos from the preview on Facebook!
So, the weather outside is crappy…but these new Aldo Shoes Spring 2012 ad campaign photos make me happy. I just wish that I could actually wear all of these fun shoes sometime soon.
The ads, featuring Anais Pouliot and Mat Gordon, were once again shot by Terry Richardson, and just like Aldo’s Fall 2011 ad campaign photos – these shots are silly good fun. Love the props, love the concept, and most of all…love the shoes.

Okay, so truth be told…most of these gifts are not last-minute Valentine’s Day gifts for “her” per say, but mostly for me…Stuff that I like, find pretty/cute/adorbs, and wouldn’t mind getting this Valentine’s Day…*hints, nudges, and pokes all around* If you think your girlfriend/friend/wife/lovah might like the same things…well, more power to you…I think any of the above would make a sweet gift to the one you adore. Or just buy it all for yourself, because the relationship that you have with yourself is the most important one. Am I right, or am I right?
What do you want this Valentine’s Day? Aside from yummy chocolates, of course! Share in the comments. Or if you’re still undecided, click here for more Valentine’s Day gift ideas.
