Funktional

Sheer Panel top in Black and Pleat Blouse in Grey

A small box from Funktional arrived today...but you know what they say, "the best things come in small packages." This is definitely true of this shipment. Both of these tops are super easy to wear, and look amazing with just about anything. Hurry in, you won't be disappointed!

Alegra Sweater received in Heather Grey

Yet another great sweater from Joie. The "Alegra" sweater is a little longer, making it perfect paired with leggings; add a Chan Luu scarf for the ultimate cozy outfit!

El Paso Tee received in White and Black

No Name Ex-Boyfriend Tee received in Black

Great news ladies, I just opened up a box from Nation Ltd, so you know what that means....lots of comfy basics! We received more of the "No Name Ex-Boyfriend Tee," as well as a few new styles. My favourite this grouping is the "El Paso Tee;" just through it on with a pair of skinnies, and roll up the sleeves for a great casual look...I love how the model is wearing it!

They're Baaaack...

Hooray!!! The "Scalloped Lace Shorts" from Free People are back!!! These sold out right away the first time we received them, so please, if you're at all curious, NO DILLY DALLYING!!!

*These shorts are now available in Ivory, Black, and Truffle. Wouldn't these be a great alternative to a dress for an evening affair?!?

More From Vince

We received a small, but fabulous grouping of Vince the other day. Here are a few of our favourite pieces:

Scoop Neck Sweater in Brown Sugar

Cropped Flare Legging

I love the colour of the "Scoop Neck Sweater." It's a warm caramel-y shade, which would be great worn with all the earthier colours this season. A slightly unexpected (but fabulous) combination would be to pair this sweater with either a plum or brick coloured pant, and chocolate brown boots.

Velvet - Faux Leather

Caryna Cardigan in Charcoal and Gwynn Skirt in Charcoal

Evio Pant in Brown

For all you vegan girls out there, or for those of you who want the leather "look" for less, Velvet has created three great faux leather pieces that are sure to please. I'm loving the two-tone "Evio" pant; the faux leather is super soft (honestly, it feels just like the real thing!!!), and they have a great boho vibe when paired with a chunky knit sweater.

Rora Top in Nutmeg and Lorna Top in Seagull

Kitten Top in Damask and Saryn Top in Murano

Jarvis Top in Vintage Berry and Doana Top in Petal

Here is a little peak at a few of the pieces we received from Velvet. There are tons of great colors and prints, as well as some fantastic sweaters, and dresses for fall. Hurry in!

What's Mabel Wearing???

Mabel's hitting the town this weekend! Sporting a new Velvet top, the "Jazinia," Mabel has put a spin on the classic glam look. She has on Jocelyn Kennedy "Chanel" necklaces, adding even more sparkle to this already glitzy top, and a Chan Luu necklace, giving the classic glam look a more organic feel. All Mabel has left to do is add a pair of black skinny jeans, and some booties and she's ready to hit all the finest spots in the city!!!

This diva never ceases to impress!!!

More Cardis...

Charlotte Tarantola paid us a visit the other day, and this is what she brought...

Euphoric in Charcoal and Bravery in Brown

Metallica in Dark Charcoal and Winter Leaves in Grey

Charlotte cardigans are great because they're always lightweight, fun, and easy to wear. The "Metallica" sweater in Dark Charcoal is my favourite out of the bunch because it is slightly different from what she typically puts out. Not only is it a bit heavier in weight, but it's also a tad edgier. I would treat this piece as a sort of jacket rather than as a cardi...Throw this on over a graphic tee, skinny jeans, boots, and a Chan Luu scarf and you've got yourself an ultra cool outfit!!!

More Wildfox Couture

The goodies keep coming in from Wildfox Couture!!! Here is a sampling of what we received...

Stag Hippie V in Dirty White

Dream Potion Oversize Raglan in Dirty White

I love both these tops!!! They have a completely different vibe from one another...the "Stag" tee is super cool and edgy, while the "Dream Potion" top has a sweet vintage-y feel...Which look do you prefer?

Welcoming ASH!!!

We are ecstatic to welcome yet another fabulous brand to Yu Fashion: ASH. ASH, a shoe company founded in 2000 by Patrick Ithier and Leonello Calvani, merges French luxury design, with Italian leathers and craftsmanship. Their goal is to target the fashion conscious...setting trends, not merely following them.

DIVINA in Taupe

DUNE in Black

Don't you just LOVE them?!?! I can't decide which ones I love more!!! The "Divina" booties would be great worn with a slouchy tee, lace shorts, and tights while the "Dune" booties would be amazing worn with a little black dress...soooo incredibly sexy!!!

Sparkle anyone?

We finally received more of the "Tiara" bracelets!!! These swarovski bangles are great on their own, or as fillers with any of your Chan Luu wraps for a little added sparkle.

*Here is a little sneak peak of the "Love" ring from "Jugar N Spice," a new fine jewellery line from Edmonton based Julie Garcia. Isn't it fab?!?! We are thrilled to welcome this line to Yu Fashion...stay tuned for more great pieces!!!

James Perse

V-Neck Long Sleeve Shirt and Inside Out Shirt in assorted colors

Soft Long Sleeve t-shirt in assorted colors

More great basics have arrived from James Perse, Hurry In!

New Woollen Goodies From Mackage

We're all huge fans of ADD coats, and Lord knows they're absolutely perfect for our climate; however, if you're looking for something a bit "dressier," Mackage may be the answer.

Ayumi in Taupe

Connie in Off White

I think both styles are great, but LOVE the "Connie" in particular...very feminine and sophisticated. Couldn't you picture yourself wearing this coat with a big fur hat, and fur trimmed boots???

New Splendid

For all you stripe lovers out there, here are two more tops to whet your appetite:

Fur Collar Cardigan in Nutmeg

I am SOOOOOO in love with this sweater from Vince!!! I love everything about it; the colour, the style, the fur...what's not to love?!?! I think this sweater worn with a fitted tee, skinny jeans, and over the knee boots makes for the perfect fall ensemble, don't you think???

Paige's Pick: "Ted Baker and Chan Luu"

Add glamour to your evening out on the town with help from Ted Baker and Chan Luu! A casual, chic sweater vest from Ted Baker combined with the glitz, and glam of a Chan Luu sequin bra will get you noticed anywhere you end up!

Warning: Proven to cause excess confidence, and style like no other glamour girl!!!

This week Mabel is having some fun with Wildfox. A bold printed, slouchy sweater is a must for all fashionistas, and the 70's inspired "Penny Lane" sweater in Blue Jean is such a great piece. Add a Chan Luu scarf, and some Jocelyn Kennedy jewels for an easy, casual look. If you really want to channel your inner hippie, pair this sweater with bell bottom jeans....Peace out Everyone!!!

PJ Salvage

Leopard PJ Set in Pink and Posh Giraffe PJ Set in Ivory

More great PJs to snuggle up in this fall/winter season.

Penny Lane Sweater in Blue Jean

Seeing Stars Lennon Sweater in War Paint

These soft, cozy sweaters are hard to beat. Add a fantastic print on top of that, and it's hard not to fall head over heels for Wildfox. Just slip on one of these fantastic Wildfox creations for an easy, casual look. Hurry in because sizes go super fast!

Joie

Montreal Top in Caviar

Prima Top in Caviar

Joie is such a great brand; they go from super girly to rocker girl chic in a blink of an eye! The "Montreal" top is such a great top; it is done in a beautiful floral print, with scalloped edging...so pretty. The "Prima" top is a must for all fashionistas. Pair this top with skinnies, and motorcycle boots and you're set!

Are You Ready For The Cold???

You asked for them...

Ugg Earmuffs

Ugg Logo Mitts

*Also in are Ugg "Bailey" Gloves in Black.

Silky Inner Liner Cardigan in Combo B

Waffle Knit Cardigan in Cinnabar and Basic V-Neck Cardigan in Combo A

Grandad Tunic Dress in Combo M and Grandad Knit Top in Malange

Maison Scotch never seems to disappoint, and our latest shipment has some great layering pieces for fall. I'm especially loving the elbow patches that are adorning all three cardigans...definitely gives the cardigans a vintage feel. My cardigan of choice this shipment, is the "Basic V-Neck Cardigan;" wouldn't it look amazing with a pair of red denim skinnies?

New From Chan

So, we are all very familiar with Chan Luu; we love her bracelets, and adore her scarves, BUT what if I told you we now carry her bras as well?!?! Bras, why bras you ask??? Why not?!? These aren't your typical run-of-the-mill bras, they're sequin bras!!! These will be incredible worn under all the loose knit sweaters come fall, not to mention how sexy they'll look peeking out from under a button down blouse...ooh la la!!!
