What I Wore: Is It Spring Yet?

22 January, 2014 Nelia

floral-pants-striped-tee-2

I wore this peppy combo last week while filming Styled By Nelia at Yorkdale. After being incredibly bored with the contents of my closet, I reached for an oldie/goodie pair of yellow floral pants and my new “goes with everything” striped tee from Ann Taylor. If there’s such a thing as a perfect spring outfit…this one’s mine. My secret hope is that if I dress like it’s spring, spring will be here sooner. Makes perfect sense to me, so just go with it. Also, you’ll owe me one when it will hit +20 degrees next week thanks to my floral pants. You’re welcome.

Wishlist: Hudson’s Bay Company Collection Spring 2013 Items

14 May, 2013 Nelia

Ever since The Bay revamped their Signature Collection a couple of years ago, I’ve been obsessed. The lovely combination of green, red, yellow, blue, and white stripes is a perfect way to add a touch of Canadiana to any outfit (or home), and this spring, the brand has added new pieces to their usual line-up. On my wishlist is a striped Evans Tray ($95) for my coffee table, the striped Isabella Maxi ($85), and the adorable Eggie Egg Cups ($20). Super cute, non?

There’s a ton of new Hudson’s Bay Collection pieces available on The Bay’s website – these are just a taste of what’s out there. So which pieces are your fave? Share in the comments!

What I Wore: Perfect

4 September, 2012 Nelia

I’ve always wanted a perfect breton striped dress, but could never find one quite perfect enough. Well, my search is finally over! This super comfy Gap dress is IT! It’s long enough for work, but not too long, the fabric is just thick enough, and the cut is very flattering. What’s not to love, right? I might just have to get a second one, in case I wear this one out.

Are you as into stripes as I am? Share in the comments!

What I Wore: Ba-na-nas

Some days all it takes to make me happy is a burst of color on a blah day, and these banana yellow H&M trousers do the trick every time! Also, how cool is my new HBC Signature Collection watch by Timex?! I get compliments on it everywhere I go…and I don’t have to look for my phone every time I want to know what time it is…there’s a watch for that!

So tell me, do you wear colorful trousers to work? Or is your office too conservative for that? Share in the comments.

Style Fille: Nikki Reed vs. Diane Kruger

24 July, 2012 Nelia

nikki-reed-leather-skirt

As you might already know, stripes are my jam. I wear them to work, on the weekend, to events, and to bed…if I was only allowed to have one top for the rest of my life – in all likelihood, I would choose a striped tee – that’s how much I love stripes. So when I saw Nikki Reed in her stripe-alicious outfit, and then Diane Kruger in hers…both on the same day, I figured it was a stripe-off made in heaven. So without further ado, vote for your fave stripey celeb below!

Style Fille: Diane Kruger in Paris

11 July, 2012 Nelia

It’s Diane Kruger time, y’all! How amazing did she look in Paris recently? Those cool striped jeans, the embellished hat, and simple tee all amount to one flawless outfit…and yet she still looks like she just threw it all together in a minute. The woman is such a style inspiration!

What do you think of Diane’s rock & roll look? You like?

Style Fille: Rosie Huntington-Whiteley

6 June, 2012 Nelia

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley is a woman after my own heart in this J.Crew striped sweater + cutoff denim shorts combo. Obviously, it doesn’t hurt that the girl is a supermodel, but I honestly think this outfit would work on pretty much anyone, and you can bet your pretty Loubies, I’ll be sure to rock a similar version of this look this summer…like I usually do.

What do you think of Rosie’s casual beach look? Are you into it? Share in the comments.

Stylish Staples: Striped Top

13 February, 2012 Nelia

Welcome to our new segment – Stylish Staples! After discovering that I only wear like 20% of my wardrobe ALL.THE.TIME., I’ve decided to see what makes those items such staples. And well, unsurprisingly, I wear them so often, because they are stylish, and easy to wear with other items in my closet.

Each week, I’ll share one Stylish Staple of mine, showcase how other stylish bloggers wear those staples in their everyday lives, and perhaps help you enhance your wardrobe along the way. If you have staple suggestions, or would like to be featured, please shoot me an email.

This week’s staple is (perhaps predictably) a striped top. I own dozens of striped tops, mostly in a classic Breton stripe, and literally wear them at least once a week. Striped tops can be worn with almost anything to (almost) any occasion. A simple striped top adds some flare to a basic outfit, and amps up your chicness quotient.

Wear your striped top to the office like Kristy, by pairing it with a pencil skirt, some grown-up pumps, and a trench coat. Rock it on the weekend, a la Liz, by doing your best Audrey Hepburn impression in a pair of cropped trousers, and some lovely flats. Or show off your sexy side like Sharon, by pairing your demure stripes with a killer necklace, and some short shorts. Just like a Little Black Dress is a must-have for every woman out there, a striped top should be too!

Are you a lover of stripes? How do you wear them? Share in the comments.

Style Fille: Diane Kruger in Derek Lam

9 February, 2012 Nelia

Every time I see a new batch of Diane Kruger’s photos, I expect to be blown away…I guess most of the time, her steeze is right up my alley, so it happens a lot. Well, she certainly does not disappoint this time around. I simply adore her 10 Crosby Derek Lam skirt over dress outfit – the colors, the stripes, the floral print – it all works for me, and makes me want to mug her in some dark alley. Not for her money, silly! All I want is her clothes…and shoes! And though we can’t credit her with putting together this outfit per say (after all, that’s the way it was always meant to be worn), I still give her props for going with simple hair and makeup, and pairing the dress/skirt with those hot yellow heels.

What do you think of Diane’s eclectic look? Would you ever wear a skirt over a dress? Let me know in the comments.

What I Wore: Back to Basics

6 February, 2012 Nelia

This past weekend I had to go in to the office and work, which naturally translated into comfy outfits with little to no thought involved. Sorry if this is kinda boring, but to me, a striped tee paired with denim is always a “do”…and an easy one at that. Which is why all of my striped tees are now looking a little mangy and tired for my liking. Time for a new batch, I say.

Apart from my stripe-obsession, there are a few other pieces that I always seem to be wearing, which is also why I will be doing a new segment on Style Blog – called Stylish Staples, starting next week. This segment will showcase some of my most beloved wardrobe essentials, and how I (and my fave bloggers) wear those pieces. For now, I’d like to ask you, my lovelies, what are your fave Stylish Staples? Share in the comments.

I Wore: Peacoat – Zara; Top – H&M; Jeans – 7FAM c/o SeCe Apparel; Boots – Proenza Schouler (The Room); Bag – Prada
