Alice + Olivia

I scored these Alice + Olivia shorts the other day from Neiman Marcus.   Would you believe these were down to $53 from $158? Then I only ended up paying $3 for them as I had a gift card.  I love a good deal.

What's been the greatest deal you've ever snagged on something?

So, how do you animal print?

BFW2011: Daniela Corte



The big finale of Boston Fashion Week took place on Friday September 30, when Daniela Corte took place on centre stage.

What a close! It was one of the most exciting events, the TENT was completely sold out and filled to the brim.

Here's just a teaser of the show to come. Whose shoes?

We were trying to figure out what the lady on the left was wearing. Anyone know? The other two are the designers :) Smashing!

BFW2011: Carter Smith



On the final night of Boston Fashion Week, one of the most colourful shows took place in The Tent at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel.  The Carter Smith show.

Carter Smith's Shibori process (Japanese dyeing technique by way of manipulating the fabric then dyeing it) results in a one of a kind, rich fabric, which is then sewn in a way that flatters every figure.

Here are some of my favourites.

BFW2011: Jeff Lahens

It's been so much fun shooting in the press pit at Boston Fashion Week!

On Thursday September 29, Jeff Lahens' show took centre stage in The Tent at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel in Boston. The collection was his own as well as a collaboration with Uniform, Bobby from Boston and Drinkwaters. What an incredibly good time! Everyone was pumped; the tunes were upbeat and the models had PROPS! PROPS! Jeff Lahens is such a nice guy; we hung out with him for a bit in the lounge after the Carter Smith show on Friday night.

Boston Fashion Week: The Paper Store

The Paper Store is one of the sponsors of Boston Fashion Week and it was great to meet Kris and Taylor in the lounge where beautiful items from The Paper Store were on display.

One such window held gorgeous, delicate charm bracelets by Chamilia.  The crystals and stones mixed with glass and gold are stunning, and would make an amazing gift for a loved one for Christmas.  *Hint Hint* Hahaha :)

Check them out on Facebook or visit The Paper Store.  (Photos: ©photohogger)

BFW2011: Lily & Migs

It's been great shooting in Boston Fashion Week 2011!

Last night, the Lily & Migs show took center stage in The Tent!

Wow.

I've heard chiffon is a difficult material to work with (thanks Project Runway!) so, watching these gorgeous, pleated, fitted, blousy, multiple tiered creations (in chiffon! silk! and georgette!) strutting down the runway was truly a delight. Such a beautiful collection and those models were rocking some amazing fish-tail braids!

Here, some of my favourite shots from before the show, during and after. It was great meeting Jenn of the Jenn & Lauren team behind Lily & Migs!

BOSTON FASHION WEEK: Designer Spotlight: LILY & MIGS

Boston Fashion Week is here!  It's my first #BFW2011 and I'm looking forward to shooting some of the shows starting next week!

For now, I'll feature the designers I'm looking forward to.

Lily & Migs


The brains behind the design are Jenn and Lauren, who met as interns at Betsey Johnson in '08.  Their label is contemporary, fun and versatile with looks that can be paired and worn with anything!  I love how their company name came about from the process of naming each of their kids, too.  How sweet!

LILY & MIGS, Tuesday September 27 at 7pm in The TENT!  (images via Lily & Migs on FB)

Pilcro

Are you a cords person? I am not.  They simply do not work for my height or shape, I find them entirely too bulky making me feel as though I can't move freely.  Jeans on the other hand, I love, especially skinny jeans as they make me look taller. 

That said, you may like Anthropologie's new Pilcro collection of coloured jeans and cords in varying shapes and sizes from Serif, Stet and Superscript.  I do love the colours. 

Et Voila!  Prices range from $88-$118 (via Anthropologie)!

Patchwork

As seen by SART on Rue du Renard, Paris.  Love her leather patchwork skirt.  Don't you? 



Here's a vintage one available on Etsy for $45USD - isn't it gorg?



More patchwork skirts.  (Images via Pinterest)  Is this something you'd wear ladies, or only have on your bed at home?

Long Weekend. What to Pack?

Canada celebrated Victoria Day last weekend and since we were staycationing, I lounged around alternating between pjs, gardening attire (pjs) and more pjs, but this weekend we're off to Boston, so I'm wondering what to pack.  And as it's Memorial Day for those south of the border a lot of you may be wondering the same!

Any plans for the weekend? 

Also, as we're moving to Boston in August, this week is mostly all about looking for housing, so if you have any tips on good neighbourhoods, let me know!

See you in a week!

Pleats

I used to have a black pleated midi skirt that I gave away a long time ago.  Don't you regret doing that when the style comes back?  I love how graceful these pleated skirts look, and how perfect for summer?

What's your summer style?  Are you a skirts and dresses person or a shorts and t-shirt person?
