What I’m Wearing: Havana

24 February, 2010 Nelia

It was a relatively cold day for Cuba. Maybe under 20 degrees Celsius! Plus cloudy, windy, etc. So I really had to hold on to my hat for most of our day in Havana to prevent it from flying away. But my new H&M Men’s tee was perfect for such a day. Long sleeves that roll up, yet with enough volume not to be too hot when it got sunny. Plus it’s…that’s right…it’s striped! I know, I know…I need help.

And the shoes…I really don’t get it. I’ve worn these sandals in Rome, Paris, Sorrento, Mexico, Toronto…everywhere…and they’ve always been nothing but comfortable! Yet this time around, I had to stop a few times, just to let my blisters feet get some rest. What gives? Is it time to throw these babies out? I don’t think I am ready yet.

I am wearing: Shirt, Hat – H&M Men; Shorts – Forever21; Bag – Old Navy; Sandals – Zara; Sunglasses – Ray-Ban; Bracelet – Iberostar Laguna Azul

All Canadian

24 February, 2010 Nelia

Being Canadian is really de rigueur nowadays. It’s incredible what a little marketing can do. The Vancouver Olympics, of course, have a lot to do with it. But, credit should be given to HBC for really marketing the crap out of their Canadiana apparel. From Wayne Gretzky and Glee guys, to it-girl Rachel Bilson – The Bay clothes are all over celebs and athletes, and are selling out in stores everywhere! Over 3 million pairs of red mittens were sold to date…and still going.

As for this Smythe HBC blanket coat – I do love this coat on Rachel. Such fun colors and so very Canadian. Hmm, perhaps the All-Canadian look will catch on in the rest of the world soon enough? Until then…Go, Canada, go!

What I’m Wearing: Check Yourself

3 February, 2010 Nelia

 Ok, so my love for all things striped is still going on…and on…and on. Went to Yorkdale the other day, and almost bought two more striped things (a dress and a top). When will this madness stop? But the truth of the matter is…I feel comfortable and chic wearing Breton stripes…and that’s that. Stole my mom’s Ralph Lauren scarf…it is just soo comfy and warm! She won’t let me keep it, so I have to “borrow” it occasionally when she doesn’t wear it. Still loving my Aldo boots. Yeah, the heels are super high, but these are still the comfiest boots I own. 

Oh, and I am also wearing my new Urban Outfitters “Texas” necklace!!! First spotted it at Buffalo’s Walden Galleria, regretted not buying it…tried to find it in Houston (without much luck), and finally got my paws on it in Toronto! You can’t see it here…but I’ll post a pic soon! Love it so much!

What I’m Wearing: Orange You Glad?

29 January, 2010 Nelia

Don’t usually feel this way, but I felt decidedly girlie the other day. Hence the floral skirt, pearl earrings, and bow necklace. I love playing dress-up in my closet once in a while. It used to be way more often (like a few times a day), but now…with all work and no play, dress-up takes a back seat. Which is kinda sad.

Oh, and I bought yet another Breton-striped shirt. I think this is officially a full-blown obsession…I have over 10 very similar striped tops (cropped, tank, tee, long sleeve, long sleeve dress, 3/4 sleeve, and a few others)…and I still have an eye on one more at H&M. Do I need an intervention?

Style Fille: Kim Kardashian

7 January, 2010 Nelia

Ok, I never thought this day would come, but today’s Style Fille is Kim Kardashian! Sure, the girl is drop dead gorgeous (even if she’s famous for nothing but smut). But I really dig her striped tank dress, paired with a cool fringe necklace! As a self-proclaimed stripe addict, I already own a similar dress (alas with long sleeves). Will have to dust it off and wear it soon! Forgot how awesome and fresh stripes can look!

Style Fille: Rachel Bilson

I’ve professed my undying love for all things striped many times before, and seeing Rachel Bilson rocking a striped tee under a boyfriend blazer just warms my heart. Love everything about her outfit. And her hair is smashing too! Classy and stylish…such a rare combination in Hollywood nowadays.

Style Fille: Whitney Port

I don’t know if it’s because I adore stripes of all kinds, but I am in love with Whitney Port’s monochromatic ensemble! Love that she is wearing different patterns together with such ease, love her Chanel purse (so classic), love the pretty hair and the leggings. This outfit could look so bad on the wrong person, but Whitney pulls it off! Chic and fabulous!
