How amazing does Jessica Stam look in this H&M Fall 2012 Trend Lookbook? So good, right? Love her as a brunette! Also…love this collection. Already have most of the pieces that I had my eye on, but still need to pick up that quilted leather jacket – it looks great in photos, hope it’s just as nice in person.

What do you guys think of this Zara Woman Fall 2012 campaign? I don’t hate it, but I don’t love it either. I do like the dreamy retro feel of these photos, and I really like Freja Beha Erichsen, but what about the clothes? Usually, when Zara lookbooks come out, I always want to see the actual pieces that will be arriving in stores, and I can’t tell whether there’s anything covet-worthy from these shots.

Have you heard of Bimba & Lola? If you haven’t, it’s an awesome Spanish brand that carries cool pieces like printed dresses and striped jumpsuits, stunning costume jewelry, and super stylish shoes. Unfortunately for those of us in North America, the brand is still not available here. But with so many cool European stores making their way to the US and Canada, I am keeping my fingers crossed that we’ll see Bimba & Lola on our home turf sooner rather than later.

Last week, I attended a lovely cocktail party in honor of Yorkdale Shopping Centre’s newest retailers. If you still haven’t heard, come fall, you’ll be able to shop Kate Spade New York, Ted Baker London, Ann Taylor, LOFT, and many other brands all at Yorkdale!
While chatting with Yorkdale’s GM Anthony Casalanguida, and trying to get him to spill the beans about other possible Toronto imports, I realized that there aren’t too many brands that I, as an ex-Texan, really want to see here in Canada. Until I remembered about Uterqüe!
Uterqüe is an Inditex brand (just like Zara and Massimo Dutti), mainly available in Europe. When I first walked into one of their stores in Barcelona, I knew I’d want to shop there again – the clothes are cute, and not crazily-priced. But unfortunately for us, there’s still no North American online shopping…and no stores either in Canada or the US. What a bummer.
So here’s the deal, Uterqüe and Yorkdale. Make it happen! Because we really need some fresh blood stores here in Canada…and in Toronto. And I want everything in this lookbook!

Launches today is the highly-anticipated collab between Trina Turk and Banana Republic, chock-full of summer and vacation essentials in fun prints and bright colors. And though I kinda wish that these pieces were in stores before my own beachy getaway I just got back from, I am still going to stop by a Banana Republic store today to try and pick up a couple of cute summer pieces (like those printed shorts, and that lovely orange maxi below). After all, you never know when you’re going to be swept away!

Hi, lovelies! The dry spell is ove-er!!! After planning on scheduling some posts for the duration of my vacation/honeymoon, I ended up running out of time…and well, the blog took a bit of a hit. But don’t fret, I am back, and have so much to share with you, guys!
To ease myself into blogging, today, I’ll be sharing my fave looks from the latest Zara Woman June 2012 Lookbook! Zara has really been hitting it out of the ballpark this year, and June is no exception. This month’s lookbook is chock-full of elegant looks with a twist. And those necklaces??? I want one in every color, pleaseandthankyou.
What do you think of this month’s new arrivals? Are you as excited as I am? Share in the comments!

As you all know already, I am a major H&M fangirl. Well, imagine my excitement at today’s Fall 2012 preview…and then multiply it by 1000, only then will you get my state of mind today while checking out fall arrivals. And though I still have to upload the photos I took today, I hope these lookbook images will tide you over until then.
I mean, there’s so much amazingness…that it almost makes me wish for fall. Actually, no…I take it back. It doesn’t make me wish for fall…it makes me wish that all of these pieces were available right NOW, so I could get my greedy paws on them. Like that bejeweled harness thingamajig, the leather peplum belt, every piece of jewelry in this lookbook, and so much more!

In less than a week (on April 26th), H&M’s Fashion Against AIDS 2012 collection will hit the stores, and I seriously can’t wait. Full of colorful tribal prints and fun accessories, with a portion of proceeds going towards a very important cause, this collection should be on everyone’s summer must-buy list.
“Safe sex is a message that each new generation needs to hear, which is why H&M is launching its fifth Fashion Against AIDS (FAA) collection, to raise funds and create awareness about HIV/AIDS among the young.”
Do you like this year’s (fifth!) FAA collection? Which pieces are on your wishlist? Share in the comments.

Making a mental note to stop by the nearest Jacob store to check out their spring arrivals, because from what I’ve seen so far – I like! Seriously, how gorgeous is that floral dress (above)?! Just imagine how fresh you’ll look at the office this spring…I’m imagining that right now. And that black and white Chanel-esque cuff? Need it!
If like me, you have been to Jacob in a while, I think it’s time to pay them a visit. Dibs on all the pretty dresses!

I’ve been really impressed with Zara lately. Even their younger line TRF (Trafaluc) is knocking it out of the park! When I saw that leather jacket above, it was love at first sight. I was due for a leather jacket upgrade, so I snatched it up and have been obsessed with it ever since. True story.
Now that the TRF April 2012 lookbook is out, I am also loving the mint-colored jacket, fringed white sweater, as well as that army jacket with leather sleeves. I mean if you live in Toronto, you can never have too many jackets…am I right, or am I right?
