Happy Dads

Happy Father's Day to all the Dads out there!  

What did you get your Dad for his day?  Yellow sneakers?  Not likely, right?

Don't know if this dude is a dad but he's rocking the yellow Nikes.  Even the guys in Montreal are so fashionable. (Image photohogger)

Summer Coral



(Image photohogger)

These girls in Montreal sure knew how to breeze their way through the hot day.  And isn't that coral dress super cute? 

Here are more coral ways to brighten up you summer:

Essie's Braziliant - such a great nail colour!

My favourite lip gloss, Dior's Glow Expert, in sheer light coral. 

Great Ikat printed summer dress with a drawstring - gotta love that!

So sexy for those summer beach BBQs, tiered knit maxi dress.

The cutest coral flip flops for only $12.50!

One of a kind gorgeous and chunky coral bracelet.

How are you infusing this trendy colour into your wardrobe this summer?

Headphones and Heels

Sorry for being MIA last week ladies; was in Montreal and will post some photos, soon!  For now, here's a very cool girl as seen in Boston.  Her heels were so high and she was struttin' so fast with her headphones on.  Have you noticed a lot of people wearing big-a$$ headphones again? (Image photohogger)

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!

Ankle Strap Flats

Ever since I saw a pair of Bellofatto black ballet flats with an ankle strap, I regret not getting them.  Love this look for summer, especially the nude colour.  What do you think?

I ouldn't find the Bellofatto online, but here's a similar look by

Gabriella Rocha, $79.99 (Endless)



Belle by Sigerson Morrison $250 (Saks Fifth Avenue)



Chloe $475 (Totokaelo)

Paris Fashion

Now that the sun is finally shining, here's some inspiration from our summer in Paris. From the impeccable suits and bright colours to what I wore (flowery summer dress, oxfords and straw hat that we got at a flea market) while shopping (I scored a pair of Prada shoes!) in Paris. What's your go-to outfit for a hot summer's day? (All images photohogger)

Shoe Closet

Spring = Spring Cleaning, right?

I cleaned up my closet and realized I have about 100 pairs of shoes, which I like to think is average for women?  How many pairs of shoes do you own?

I use a couple of the antique white Akada shoe organizers from Home Depot in my closet along with Ikea shoe compartments and racks for the rest of the pairs in the front hall closet.

How do you keep your shoes organized?

Style'n had a great TIP for keeping your boots all lined up! Check it out here.

Here's my closet followed by some pretty stunning shoe closets, don't you think?  *SIGH*

(I love the two black and white images! So classic!)

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!

Garance Doré Inspiration


(Image via Harper's Bazaar)

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?

What Kate's Wedding Shoes May Look Like

Footwear designers have shown some potential wedding shoes for Kate Middleton to wear down the royal aisle. What do you think? I'd love a pair of the Blahnik's and the Goodman's. *Le Sigh*





Manolo Blahnik
His design: An ivory silk pump with organza lilies of the valley and sea pearls
“It represents springtime and everything fresh and new, which is what Kate Middleton is all about.”

 

 



Giuseppe Zanotti
His design: A black satin sandal with large sapphire centerpiece and surrounding diamonds, on a metal-tipped stiletto
“I wanted her shoes to match the classic and sophisticated elements of her ring, but with a younger, modern edge. Jewelry for the feet is my DNA, so designing for a princess comes very naturally.”



René Caovilla
His design: A white satin sandal with marabou feathers and multicolor Swarovski crystal gems
“This shoe is fit for a princess because the sandal is elegant, sexy and precious, and it suggests a magical atmosphere.”



Cesare Casadei
His design: A single-soled silk pump with jeweled straps and embroidered floral details
“Kate reminds me of a 2011 Audrey Hepburn. ... This elegant design is customized with embroidery and multishaped clear crystals, to create a waterfall of stones dancing down the foot. I can see Kate dancing all night in this ‘new tango’ heel.”



Georgina Goodman
Her design: An antique Welsh lace pump with 
Scottish seed pearls and pearl-inspired heel
“I wanted to create something special with an intrinsic emotional value; something old and at the same time mirroring Kate’s fresh modernity. ... I have aimed for a balance between history and femininity fitting the occasion; a kind of luxury recycling.”
