What They Wore: Chanel No. 5 “The One That I Want” Party

16 October, 2014 Nelia

Chanel-No5-Crystal-Renn

Speaking of amazing parties…What I wouldn’t give to be a fly on the wall at this CHANEL bash! Earlier this week, the brand celebrated the release of the latest CHANEL No 5 “The One That I Want” ad campaign, shot by Baz Luhrmann, and starring Gisele Bundchen. And while the short film is definitely mesmerizing, this time, I couldn’t take my eyes off the stylish attendees instead. Just look at Crystal Renn! That gown! That hair! That makeup! So damn beautiful! And Poppy Delevingne! I’m in love with her kaleidoscopic dress and bright clutch. Granted, I’m not as obsessed with Poppy as I am with Crystal, but finally seeing pieces from the CHANEL Dubai Cruise 2015 collection outside of the context of a fashion show is definitely making my heart beat faster. Here’s hoping more celebs will wear these stunners to red carpet premieres and such – SO much potential here.

As for the belle of the ball – Gisele – well, she looked beautiful, of course, as she always does, but my heart belongs to Crystal Renn and her starry gown, and her fierce eyebrows, and her flawless face. Dear Karl, I nominate Crystal for the next CHANEL campaign. Please and thank you.

Kate Young for Target Collection Ad Campaign!

11 March, 2013 Nelia

With a few Target stores already open for business in the GTA, and many more in the works, I can finally get excited about a Target designer collab! Well, get excited AND be able to shop the collection without having to drive across the border. Kate Young for Target collection will be hitting the stores on April 14th, but in the meantime, we have some ad campaign images to peruse. Photographed by Terry Richardson, the campaign features Leigh Lezark, Hailey Gates, Nathalie Love, and Lily Kwong on the red carpet clad in Kate Young’s glam and quirky designs. My fave pieces from the capsule include the white tuxedo jacket below and all of the shoes, which would certainly become staples in my wardrobe.

Young, a stylist who dresses the likes of Natalie Portman and Michelle Williams created a collection of affordable (and wearable) red carpet looks, and is the first stylist to ever score a Target collab deal. “As a stylist, I wanted to create a collection that allows and encourages all women to create their own red carpet moments, no matter the occasion”, she shared.

What do you think of this collab? Are you excited that Canada is not left out this time? Share in the comments!

Moon Apparel Launch Party

13 August, 2010 Nelia

As mentioned earlier, Moon Apparel launched last night in Liberty Village. To be honest, I had very little idea as to what Moon was. In a “Who is Salt” fashion, I received a mysterious invite that mentioned something about the “aspirations of the modern” and “the attitude of the future”. All I knew was that the party was held at the Mimran Group Inc. offices, sponsored by The Bay, with the Misshapes (including Leigh Lezark) on the turntables – I was ready to be surprised.

As it turns out, Moon is not some miracle wrinkle-busting robot of the future, it is a clothing line – mostly designed by Jordin and Tamara Mimran, whose father Saul has found much success with Club Monaco and Alfred Sung prior to launching Moon. The clothing line is available at the Bay, and features office separates, dresses, coats, knits, and more. The setup and styling were very reminiscent of Club Monaco’s minimalistic mannequin displays, but prices were definitely more Joe Fresh, ranging from $19-$139.

I definitely had a few favorites: super adorable black and white cardi, office-appropriate purple dress with a back zipper, and a few pairs of pants that seemed to fit quite well, though I haven’t actually had a chance to try them on…yet. And though, as Torontonians we’re considerably spoiled by the seemingly infinite choices of “affordable chic”, Moon Apparel might be godsend to other Canadian cities with less options. The Bay is everywhere in Canada, and with 91 stores carrying the line, I can imagine Moon becoming crazy popular in no time.

The party itself was great. I got to finally meet Lisa aka Urban Native Girl, Kimberly of Souls of my Shoes, and Dejana of  Shopsterium – all amazing ladies with fab blogs. I also spotted a bunch of stylish attendees, and got to meet Leigh-freaking-Lezark! Ok, so that involved a bit of embarrassing groupie-like behavior, but thanks to lovely Lisa, we went up to that DJ booth and got a pic…alas a blurry one, but I’ll take what I can get. Leigh was just as gorgeous in real life as in the many photos of her online, but definitely much, much smaller than I’d thought.

The night was fun, we made new friends, met Karl Lagerfeld’s muse, and witnessed the birth of a new collection. It can safely be said – this fashion lover was over the Moon.

Style Fille: Leigh Lezark

10 August, 2010 Nelia

Leigh Lezark has come a looong way from her native Toms River, New Jersey. I guess things could’ve gone the Jersey Shore way, but instead, Lezark (1/3 of the Misshapes) is a fashion darling, mingling with the likes of Karl Lagerfeld, Matthew Williamson, and Galliano. Not too shabby for a girl my age!

Admittedly, she hasn’t been on my style radar for very long. But all it took was a photo of her, wearing a black and white printed bodysuit to Chanel’s Spring 2010 show (below) – now that took some serious cojones – for me to develop a raging (head over heels) girl crush! And though her style seems a tad all over the place, no one can deny that if the girl put on a garbage bag and accessorized it with some stale spaghetti – she’d still look better than 90% of the population. 

I also adore Leigh’s fun-loving, devil-may-care attitude, that shines through the many candids from CobraSnake’s site. And while Gawker “lovingly” nicknamed the model/DJ “Princess Coldstare”, I can’t help but think that it’s all part of her public persona…I mean could a person making a “meow/hiss” face at a fur-coat-wearing older man really be that icy? I think not, but hopefully, I’ll find out soon enough, when she’s in Toronto for the Moon Apparel Launch Party!

What do you guys think about Leigh and her style? Let me know in the comments.
