Style Fille: Elizabeth Olsen in KENZO x H&M

27 October, 2016 Nelia

First things first…H&M CANADA ONLINE SHOPPING HAS FINALLY LAUNCHED!!! And if you sign up to be on the brand’s mailing list, you will receive 20% off your purchase and free shipping until Oct 30th! What this means for those who are looking to shop the KENZO x H&M collection? Well, you just got an alternative to lining up in the middle of the night. But don’t rely on online shopping as your only way of getting those coveted pieces – sites are known to crash due to high demand.

Now that I got that off my chest (seriously, I’ve been waiting for H&M online shop for AGES!), we can look at Elizabeth Olsen’s amazing KENZO x H&M getup. These two pajama-inspired pieces are at the top of my list, and I love how she styled them with a pair of velvet heels. So perfect. For those who have yet to embrace pajamas as daywear, I don’t know what you’re waiting for. It’s comfy and chic, and I am all about it. Obviously, Lupita Nyong’o also looks super gorgeous in that amazing printed dress, but in this instance, my eyes are permanently glued to Elizabeth Olsen’s outfit.

Are you excited about H&M Canada online shopping being available??? Do you love the pajama trend? Share in the comments!

What I Wore: Cat’s Pajamas

As I mentioned in an earlier post, I’ve been obsessed with this Drake’s for J.Crew pajama outfit for a while now, so, of course, as soon as the collection landed in stores, I snapped it up. And while most people wouldn’t consider wearing silk pajamas to a fancy party, I wore mine to the Nordstrom Eaton Centre store opening, and spent the night saying “thank you”, because this outfit was a huge hit. Props to J.Crew for making a comfy outfit look and feel so exquisite.

But enough about my amazing PJs, let’s talk about Nordstrom! That store is a joy to shop in, and I’m really excited about its arrival in Toronto (they carry Madewell, y’all!). With a stunning shoe department full of both high-end and more affordable designer names, several fancy boutiques like Miu Miu and Loewe, a monogramming station (something I’ll surely be using come Christmas shopping season), an Alexander Wang shop-in-shop, and my new obsession – Sugarfina candy (the Jamaican Rum Snowballs are thebomb.com), this store has become my must-visit in the city, and pretty soon, there’s going to be a second location at Yorkdale Shopping Centre!

If you’d like to celebrate the opening of Nordstrom’s second Toronto location, make sure to grab your tickets before they sell out! The Nordstrom Yorkdale Shopping Centre Gala will take place on October 19th at 7pm, and gala proceeds will be donated to several charitable foundations. More details can be found here. See you there?

Shopping: Drake’s for J.Crew Collection

15 August, 2016 Nelia

When I attended the J.Crew Fall 2016 show during NYFW last season, there were many things I walked away coveting. One of those things was a tiger-printed silk shirt/pants combo of my dreams. One may call it pajamas, but to me, it’s an actual outfit that should be worn outside of the bedroom, preferably with a statement necklace and a pair of chic heels (or maybe Gucci loafers, if you want to be 100% comfy). Well, tomorrow’s my lucky day, because the Drake’s for J.Crew collection launches on August 16th (that’s tomorrow!), and THAT “pajama set” will be available too.

Drake’s archival prints were used and customized on J.Crew designs to create a first-ever Drake’s collection for women. The collection will consist of 8 styles across 4 categories, ranging in price from $78.50 CAD to $259 CAD, and made from 100% silk. And while getting the entire set may be a bit pricey, I think I simply have to have this top – the catlady in me demands it.

What do you think of Drake’s for J.Crew collection? Will you be adding any of the pieces to your shopping cart? Share in the comments.

Holidays 2012: New Year’s Eve Pajama Party

24 December, 2012 Nelia

new-year-pajama-party

As much as I love getting dressed up and partying it up on New Year’s Eve, this year, I just don’t feel up to it. Perhaps I’m getting old, but the thought of wearing a skimpy dress while it’s freezing outside, and dragging my butt across the city to a crowded and overpriced party just doesn’t have the same appeal this year.

So instead of getting all dressed up, my friends and I will be doing the opposite – having a pajama party at someone’s house! And best of all, I won’t have to look shlumpy either. The PJ trend has been around for a while now, and some of the coolest looks I’ve seen as of late feature some sort of a fun twist on the sleepwear trend. So this New Year’s Eve I’ll be rocking my newly-acquired black with white-piping H&M PJs, Charlotte Olympia velvet kitty flats, and a bold necklace to dress up the look, while sipping delicious Pinnacle Whipped Vodka cocktails and playing Cards Against Humanity (aka best game ever!) with some of my dearest friends. Comfy, inexpensive, and fun.

So what about you? Are you planning to go out and party all night long? Do you know what you’ll wear? Let me know in the comments!
