 "Fran Plaid Popver" in Sky

SO much love for Velvet's "Fran Plaid Popover" in Sky! Featuring double-faced plaid in a GORGEOUS blue/orange combo, this relaxed fitting top also boasts 3/4 length sleeves and a split V-neck placket...the perfect companion to worn-in boyfriend jeans and slip-on sneakers!

Velvet: Parisian Flair

We ADORE a great stripe, who doesn't?!! This season, Velvet's rolled out TWO key pieces that belongs in every fashionista's closet...

"Teresita Top" in Cream

The "Teresita Top" in Cream is unbelievably fantastic! Featuring dropped shoulder seams, split side vents, and a subtle hi-lo hemline, this striped cozy oozes Parisian charm. Pair with your favourite black skinnies and pointed-toe flats for an outfit high on style, yet low on effort. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE.

"Abelia Dress" in Grey

The "Abelia Dress" in Grey has been given a modern and quirky twist with its inverted back seam. Like its predecessor, this too boasts dropped shoulder seams and an easy fit. We're loving it styled with a leather jacket and combat boots. SO cool!

Velvet: Patterned Gems

Velvet, best known for their easy wearable pieces, has clearly outdone themselves this collection. Early standouts include their tribal-influenced items such as the "Dominica African Print Top" received in Wine and the "Amabel Printed Challis Dress" in Twilight.

"Dominica African Print Top" received in Wine

The former is a cotton blend, peasant blouse featuring an allover geometric pattern, split neckline with embroidered trim, and elasticized sleeves. To compliment the top's easy, breezy feel, we love it best paired with second skin skinnies and slouchy boots. A big, floppy hat and oversized cashmere scarf will amplify the outfit's boho vibe.

"Amabel Printed Challis Dress" in Twilight

The latter is an absolute MUST if you're a fan of "throw and go" fashion! Featuring a V-neckline, asymmetrical hem, and removable waistband, this printed dress is perfectly appropriate for anything and everything. For day, throw it on with strappy sandals and simple jewellery; for evening, with a leather jacket and peep-toe booties.

How fabulous is the "Roxane Rock & Roll Hand Muscle Tee" in Paint Stain?!! SO cool. Featuring an easy, relaxed fit, this crew neck top exudes a "cool girl" vibe and would look AMAZING thrown on under a printed kimono with distressed denim shorts and ankle booties.

Another gem this shipment is the "Briley Rock & Roll S/S Tee with Open Back" in Double Black. Similar in cut to the "Roxanne", this one's been accented with short sleeves and an exposed back, perfect paired with a leather jacket, dark skinnies, and moto boots.

James Perse: Team Sweatpants


"Slim Sweatpants" in Black

Usually I'm "Team NO Pants" (guess who's writing this blog...), but, since the world does require pants to be worn on a daily basis, I'm also a happy member of "Team Sweatpants", and James Perse's "Slim Sweatpants" in Black fulfills all my sweatpant dreams!!! Its slim fit and tapered legs disguises the comfort of your baggiest sweats in a clean and modern silhouette, one you'd be proud to leave the house in.

What's Mabel Wearing???


Our beloved socialite and fashionista, Mabel, is off to Taste of Edmonton today in a casual, but NEVER boring ensemble. She's decided to jazz up Wildfox's "Essential V-Neck Tee" in Clean White with Stylestalker's "Safia Bra" in Rose completing the look with Doma's "Suede Fringe Jacket" in Beige. Mabel's also obsessed with her new Tai "Initial Necklace" which she's decided to layer with various Shakti stunners. Not only will our girl be bringing her appetite to the festival, she'll be bringing LOADS of style too!

Rebecca Taylor: Embroidered Black


"Sleeveless Embroidered Chiffon Top" in Black

We're completely SMITTEN with Rebecca Taylor's "Sleeveless Embroidered Top" in Black! Accented with embroidered detailing throughout the shoulders and back yoke, this top also boasts a scalloped trim, soft pleating, and slight hi-lo hemline...great with slim-fitting black pants, but AMAZING with distressed skinnies and sky-high heels!

STYLE STALKER: What A Vision!!!

"Visions Top" in Sky

How GORGEOUS is Style Stalker's "Visions Top" in Sky?!! SOOOO beautiful! The exposed back and high neckline provide the perfect contrast between sexy and "lady". Pair this top with cream shorts and lace-up sandals for a wedding appropriate ensemble, or, with grey skinnies and ankle boots for a date-night option.
Share:

STYLE STALKER: Bralettes

"Safia Bra" received in White and Rose and "Mellina Bra" in Black
 
These HAVE to be my favorite find of the entire Style Stalker shipment! I'm SUCH a sucker for lace bralettes; they're sexy and add something "extra" to a basic jeans and tee outfit, not to mention they're the perfect solution to all the low-cut tops out there. The "Safia Bra" with its mesh accent provides slightly more coverage than the "Mellina", which is a better option for someone who likes more support or more lace exposed. I LOVE it and think it would look great under a silk tank with black skinnies and heels for a night out on the town!

Though originally from Sydney, the girls are designing out of LA, so expect to see a combination of cutting edge Australian style with Los Angeles' laid back vibe. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE.

These days, floral patterns have become as "basic" as stripes and/or leopard print, and Equipment's "Adalyn" and "Signature Blouse(s)" this delivery have been injected with an autumnal vibe...

"Adalyn Blouse" in True Black Attic Floral Print

Received in True Black Attic Floral Print, the "Adalyn Blouse" features a slightly relaxed fit with a plunging neckline and pajama-inspired collar.
