Net-A-Porter is having a sale, and look what I found while I was scooping up bargains!
Smart shoes by Marc Jacobs, – 
Combining the sweetness of a peep-toe, the sophisticated styling of a slingback, and the slickness of patent leather.
All wrapped up in a beautiful nude hue that wears wonderful and stuck on a 4-inch heel, I […]

Loooooooooove!
These Burberry strappy gladiator sandals are absolutely luxurious.
Stacked 5 inches tall on a wooden heel, these platform sandals are slick, strappy, –
Precisely what I need. The curvature of these Burberry shoes is incredibly appealing, and paired with lizard-embossed leather, I’ve a feeling these sandals would make great companions for my feet this summer.
And just when […]

Unlike Lauren Conrad’s over-priced clothing line, Gabriella Cortese’s designs for Antik Batik — specifically these fringed suede boots — are a worthy buy. All quality, inspired by global style and free-spiritedness, these Antik Batik fringed suede boots are nothing if not a great alternative to Uggs.
While I certainly wouldn’t wear them everyday, I’ve a feeling these booties would make a […]

Check, check, check it out!
So I was just perusing ShopBop’s offerings for their FABulous extra 25 percent off sale, and found a few items that qualify, a few items that don’t, –
And ALL things that are worth a closer look.
I’m especially loving the few jackets marked down by one of my favourite designers, Diane von […]

Even though I’m not so excited for Ironman, I am pretty excited that the movie has brought Gwyneth Paltrow back to the red carpet.
Gwyneth is one of my style icons; though some of her wardrobe choices are avant-garde, her unique sense of style is what adds to her appeal.
I’m loving her Balmain dress and tuxedo jacket […]

The product description says this pair of Bruno Frisoni sandals will swathe your feet.
I couldn’t agree more.
And I can’t imagine anything more appropriate than nude colouring and streamlined straps with an open toe to prep me for summer’s heat.
Bruno Frisoni sandals are sweet accessories for your feet, and this pair is no exception.
Bruno Frisoni patent […]

Who doesn’t love a bargain?
Check out these gorgeous leather and croc-embossed pumps by MICHAEL Michael Kors.
Marked down for less than half the price, these MICHAEL Michael Kors pumps are coloured a shade of olive so deep that at first glance they look black or brown.
Besides the classic rounded toe and the perfectly proportioned heel, I love the […]

It’s April Fools Day, darlings, but there’s no fooling around here: Cut-out spectator pumps are spot-on style for this spring and summer.
We’ve seen the spectator evolve from closed to peep-toe, from soft-grained leather to shiny patent, –
And cut-outs are the latest twist.
I’m loving several styles by Linea Paolo, available in fresh colours like lilac and […]

Any of my close friends understand my absolute love for anything neutral in hue — whether it comes in the form of makeup, clothing, or accessories.
It only makes sense then that I’d fall head over five-inch-high heels for these GORGEOUS Versace croc-stamped leather and woven raffia sandals.
I’m not normally one to be attracted to anything too abstract, […]

Before I discovered Toronto designer Jay Godfrey’s darling designs, I thought ombré was just a modernized tye-dye — overdone and ugly, — but now the cascading colour-block technique is really growing on me.
From shirts and shoes to bags and bohéme-like scarves, I’ve compiled my top ombré trend list over on ThisNext.
Do check it out and […]

Russell Crowe is hands-down the hottest gladiator I’ve ever seen — even if it was just in the cinema — but ladies who can style gladiator sandals for this spring and summer will rank a close second.
Wearing gladiator sandals takes confidence, so I can understand your hesitation — gladiator sandals certainly are a tough look to […]

I am SO excited about styling a pair of Hunter wellies this spring! It seems like since we’ve hit March, things are happening faster — Easter is less than three weeks away, Daylight Savings Time starts this weekend, –
And the snow is melting.
Well, not quite, but after next week, green grass is set to start […]

Can we just talk for a minute about Loeffler Randall?
First designer darling Jessie Randall’s dainty ballet flats and oversized totes make their mark at Target (Loeffler Randall for Target is available until March 28th) and now upscale online boutique eLUXURY has started selling the designer’s pretty and practical clothing, shoes, and handbags.
I’m all in favour of clothing and accessories […]

How do you feel about penny loafers? There’s a really cute pair on page 229 of March’s Lucky magazine. I love the whole men’s/schoolboy look, but what would you pair them with to avoid looking like an elementary-ed teacher?
I feel like penny loafers haven’t been done right since 1995 when Alicia Silverstone rocked them in […]

To dress daringly — be it baring your décolletage in a low-neckline, or showing your gams in a minute mini — is dramatic, but to make it exotic, try throwing in a little print (animal, that is.)
I’m thinking a leopard-print coat by Dior that’s more fresh than spring flowers, and French Sole ballet shoes that […]
