I so want a pair of red pants for the summer. Goes so well with camel, don't you think? Is this something you'd wear ladies?

Umbrella-ella-eh-eh
It's raining here in Toronto, which means SPRING is finally here?!? Which means that we have to bring out our rain boots and umbrellas!
I adore my Kate Spade rain boots which I got on sale, what are your go-to rain boots or footwear of choice for the rainy season?
As far as umbrellas go, Shed Rain has the lightest ones I've ever come across. I also love Totes for their affordability and sizes. London Undercover has the most unique umbrellas ever, like this fish and chips one and this English Breakfast one. How cute are they?
Then there's the Polite Umbrella which you can pull into yourself if the sidewalk is too busy or if it's a windy day. Brilliant, don't you think? It's one on a list of 20 COOLEST umbrellas you'll ever see!

Elizabeth Taylor
Twiggy
Wasn't the Twigster (do you think anyone called her that?) such a fashion inspiration? I would never dare cut my hair that short, but she has always looked so cool, and check out that long (and thick!) braid!
With the 70s revival, do you see yourself wearing those floppy hats? Super cute!

Marshalls Canada

Classic Red
What is it about a classic red lip that looks so glamorous?
Don't these lovely ladies make you feel like breaking out the RED?
I finally found my perfect shade. It's Lorac's Matte Lipstick in "Receive". I keep it in my purse just in case I'm going out and need to dress up a bit.
Do you have a perfect red?

Rustic & Refined
Anthropologie has great new arrivals that are menswear inspired but also lacy and florally and totally feminine. So much win!

Spring Florward!
(Image via)
Now that we've SPRUNG forward one hour it's got me thinking about flowers. What better way to introduce spring into your wardrobe than with florals!
I love the floral clutch and the Erdem dress! What type of floral has caught your eye for Spring?
Sunglasses
I know a lot of people wear sunglasses during the winter months (are you one of them?) because of the bright sunshine or the reflection of all the white snow, but can you not just WAIT to bring them out for SUMMER?
I don't even want Spring anymore, I just want it to go straight into summer, haha!
Love this image and the big sunglasses!

60s
Yes! 60s hair is back!
As seen in Paris, at the Valentino show.
Models’ hair was styled into low ponytails with height at the crown and a headband!
Like or dislike? I heart very much.

Milk & Honey
Have you heard about this?
Started by sisters Ilissa and Dori Howard, you can design your own shoes over at Milk & Honey.
For $250 you can design your own pair of heels and for $200 your own pair of flats.
All shoes (except rush orders) take approximately 6 weeks to produce. (check out their "how it works" page for more)
The only problem after all that work is, what if they don't fit?
Well, they have a policy for that too: you can return or exchange unworn shoes within 30 days.
Have any of you tried this? Is it something you would do?
I'm so tempted!
I love this pair from their inspiration gallery as it mimics the Valentino's I so covet!

Polka Dots
Who doesn't own something polka dotted? Speak now, or forever hold your peace.

Garance Doré Inspiration

I was inspired by this photograph taken by Scott Schuman of Garance. I think she looks so carefree and elegant and easily put together.
Here's my take on this look. I'm a huge fan of rolling up my sleeves to a 3/4 length, otherwise I just look stumpy!
Is this something you'd wear?
John Galliano

I'm sure by now you've heard about John Galliano's anti-Semitic remarks at a Parisian Bar.
He had been suspended but is now fired from Dior.
Here is his apology:
"Anti-Semitism and racism have no part in our society. I unreservedly apologize for my behavior in causing any offense," the British designer said in a statement. He said he would immediately seek help for his "failures." (via WallStreetJournal)
Some eyewitnesses are saying he was provoked by the couple sitting beside him who thought he was a bum. More on that here.
Leap Year
Here's some Spring fashion inspiration from Amy Adams's character in Leap Year (have you seen it?). It's such a cute little film and Matthew Goode is yummy!
I can't believe she was walking around in those 4.5 inch Louboutins (and the things she got on them!)
Studs
I love studs on anything, but this might be a bit much. She certainly pulls it off. Is this something you'd wear?

After Parties
I love the After Party photos, like this one of Ginnifer Goodwin and her fiance Joey Kern - she's wearing an Erdem dress - how great does it look with her haircut? Love her!

BESTS: Cate, Mila, Mandy, Natalie, Sandra, Helen, Reese, Anne, Amy, Halle, Aishwarya, Jennifer, Jennifer, Oprah, Penelope, Javier, Gwyneth
Happy to see so many beautiful colours on the red carpet!
My favourites?
Cate did Cate and I think this was my favourite look of the night. Such a wonderful lavender Givenchy haute couture dress from the Spring 2011. LOVE HER! She looked absolutely regal!

Mila's Elie Saab dress too, definitely. Such a gorgeous lavender colour on her and the lace detailing was so delicate and pretty.

Mandy's Monique Lhuillier gown was absolutely stunning.

Natalie had on a lovely purple Rodarte gown that really suited her growing belly and brought out that glow.

Sandra's pop of red (Vera Wang) was wonderful and I loved that she pulled back the bangs!

Ever elegant and never matronly, Helen was wearing gray gown by Vivienne Westwood. Such a classy lady, no?
Reese looked lovely and sleek; loved her 60s pony tail! Her Armani Privé black and white dress reminded me of Julie Roberts' vintage Valentino the year she won the Oscar.

Anne looked classy in her opening cream Givenchy Haute Couture by Riccardo Tisci gown (I also loved her custom made Brian Atwood heels she wore with her tux during her singing number). She also pulled off the shiny blue number later in the awards show.
Amy's blue L'Wren Scott gown and retro hairdo really looked stunning on her.

Halle looked as elegant as ever in a nude Marchesa gown; her hair and jewellery were understated as well.

Aishwarya and Abhishek were there! Ash looked great in a bronze coloured Armani Privé gown.

Jennifer Hudson; omg you guys, how much weight is this woman losing? Enough now, I say. Loved the tangerine Versace on her; and understated makeup. Lovely.

Jennifer Lawrence did a sleek Calvin Klein gown in red, looking effortless and age-appropriate.

Penelope and Javier = win! (Penelope also wore L'Wren Scott! LOVE!)

Gwyneth and her Calvin Klein gown was perfect on her svelte figure. Brian Atwood golden puppies on her feet!

My Misses?
Scarlett (as my BFF said, was too "matronly"), Annette ( I liked the Naeem Khan dress, but not on her, it did nothing for her), Marisa (great colour but not flattering), Hilary (too many feathers, and would it have killed her to wear some earrings?), Nicole Kidman (looked like a napkin or tapestry; too much going on and didn't care for the few strands of hair in her face), Michelle in Chanel (BO-RING! But lovely makeup).
Those are my picks cats!
How about you?
