Style Fille: Miu Miu Women’s Tale Event

Hailee-Steinfeld-Miu-Miu_NYFW_2014_Cat_Coat

Ok, first things first…THAT CAT WALLPAPER! I NEED IT IN MY LIFE AND I DON’T CARE WHAT I HAVE TO DO TO OWN IT! Now that that’s taken care of, let’s talk fashion, shall we?

Earlier this week Miu Miu threw a party to celebrate the release of its latest installment of the Women’s Tales series in New York. The star-studded guest list included Hailee Steinfeld, Alexa Chung, Solange Knowles, Sami Gayle, and Anna Dello Russo with her dress twin Giovanna Battaglia (they did the right choice!). Most attendees wore Miu Miu Spring 2014 designs, with some Prada and Carven thrown in for good measure, and I honestly loved it all! Obviously, Hailee’s cat-print coat wins at life right now, but I could also get down with Alexa’s dreamy dress…and about anything else at that party. Though I won’t be buying any of those pieces full-price, I will do my darndest to try and find it at The Mall, or at SPACE in a year or so. Fingers crossed!

What about you? Are you as into these looks as I am? Share in the comments!

Coachella 2013: Celebs Show Off Their Festival Style

coachella-2013-katy-perry-dolce-gabbana

What is it about Coachella that makes me drool with envy? Is it the promise of hot desert sun, great bands, and fun fashion? That must be it.

This past weekend, a ton of celebs headed down to Indio, California, and brought their A-game, when it came to style. Katy Perry strutted around wearing a revealing Dolce and Gabbana two-piece, and a whimsical purse. Alexa Chung stuck to her signature style by donning a black and white Wednesday Addams mini dress, while Kate Bosworth looked amazing in a scalloped tank and shorts. My favourite Hollywood couple (Diane Kruger and Joshua Jackson) also made an appearance, looking cute and stylish as always, as did Solange, in a pretty pink floral skirt.

Do you get excited about Coachella style snaps? Which celeb’s outfit do you like the most? Share in the comments.

Beauty: Chopping it Off

keira-knightley-allure-2012

I’ve been staring at this photo of Keira Knightley for at least 10 minutes now, and I think I’m in love…with her hair and makeup. Of course, it helps that she looks the way she does, but also, I’m totally into those highlights, layers, red lip, lined eyes…so good! Well done, Allure! Well done!

And though I don’t have Keira’s stunning face, I am still loving my new shorter do, which was originally cut by the uber-talented Alain Larivee of John Frieda during TIFF, and then most recently by Fouad at the Tony Chaar Salon. I went from “past the boob” hair to “past the chin” cut, and I have never loved it more. There’s something really kick-ass about having shorter hair, and it feels really good, and fun, and free. It was almost as if I got a boost of confidence the moment my long locks hit the floor.

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!
