AG: Basics

More IS more! We just received another shipment of basic AG jeans for summer...hooray!!! The denim we received are in a lighter, stretchier material promising to be some of your future favorites! Our picks are the "Prima" in 4 Years Cobalt and "Legging Ankle" in 18 Years Dust.

"Prima" in 4 Years Cobalt

"Legging Ankle" in 18 Years Dust

7FAM: FAVE

"Slim Cigarette" in Light Blue Destroyed

We love 7FAM's "Slim Cigarette" jeans! Although they fit fairly slim through the hip and thigh, they are definitely NOT a legging jean; made with a shorter inseam for a tidier look, these jeans look great with flip flops, flats, heels, and boots! Also, the bleached out look of these coupled with the strategically placed "holes," make them ideal for summer...all you need now to complete the look is a fitted tank, Chan Luu scarf, and oversized sunnies!!

Vince: Casual Goodies

We believe you can NEVER have too many sweaters, especially with the kind of "up and down" weather we've been experiencing of late. Vince's latest crop of cozy gems just arrived, and you will NOT be disappointed...

"Wide V-Neck Sweater" in Sapphire

 This "Wide V-Neck Sweater" in Sapphire is the quintessential "throw and go" top. Made of a lightweight, slub knit cotton, this top will keep you feeling warm but never overheated!

"Banded Colorblock Sweater" in Heather Grey/Canary

I'm loving the colour combination of the "Banded Colorblock Sweater" in Heather Grey and Canary! The boldness of the yellow trim really livens up this boatneck, drop shouldered knit...perfect worn with a lighter washed denim.

*Also received is the "Ribbed Shoulder Top" in Heather Cloud.

Rebecca Taylor: Vest

"Denim Vest" in Blue

We're SO loving Rebecca Taylor's "Denim Vest" in Blue, loving it!!! What sets this vest apart from the rest is the updated "Moto" influence; the epaulets and exposed zipper detailing gives it an added element of "cool." As with all vests, it would look fabulous over a graphic tee and jeans, but how amazing would it be over a silky dress?!!

Grrrrrrr!!!

"Leo Tee" in Neutral

Need a fun, BOLD top to pair with your favourite skinnies? Rebecca Taylor's "Leo Tee" in Neutral may be that top!!! Its strong graphic combined with the easy feel of a jersey tee makes for a winning combination...try it with a distressed pair of shorts, and gladiator sandals for an edgy weekend look.

Did You Know?!...

" (Turquoise) Moroccan Beaded Bracelets"

Did you know that turquoise, summer's favourite stone, DOESN'T just come in blue?!? Jocelyn Kennedy's latest crop of "Moroccan Beaded Bracelets" are now available in yellow, orange, and green turquoise! Wear them on their own, or in combination with your other bracelets.

Oh Catherine, How We've Miss You...

"Cushion Cut Collete" Necklace in Shade

It feels like ages ago since we've done a blog on Catherine Popesco...how can that be?!? We'll have to remedy that post haste!!! As always, her beautiful, vintage inspired pieces are THE perfect accessories for any and all occasions, whether they be in the form of earrings, bracelets,and/or my personal favourite, the "Cushion Cut Collete" necklace (pictured above). Always a hit in the classic "Shade," this time around we also received it in Midnight Blue, Pacific Opal, and Teal.

GORGEOUS!!!

What's Mabel Wearing???

Mabel is channeling her inner Nicole Richie with her look this week. She's wearing Winter Kate's chic "Luna Jacket" in Skye over Velvet's "Petra" maxi, a simple grey dress. For accessories, Mabels decided on Rebecca Minkoff's "Mab Tote" in Almond, and an assortment of House of Harlow and Claudia necklaces, just as Ms. Richie would do! We love the boho vibe this outfit brings, and think it's the perfect combination of casual and chic. We could definitely see Mabel sipping lattes on an outside patio in L.A. while flipping through a glamorous magazine! All her look needs now is a large, floppy sun hat, and a pair of oversized sunnies!!!

Who wore it better...Mabel or Nicole?!?

                                                

Paige's Pick: Favorite Denim

It shouldn't come as a surprise to any of you when I say I'm a casual person; jeans and tees are my constant  "go-tos." So, surprise, surprise...I'm on the hunt for the perfect pair of summer jeans, and currently have it narrowed down to three pairs that I can't even begin to choose from: 7FAM's "Slim Cigarette" jeans in Light Grey, AG's "Stilt Roll Up(s)" in 14 Years Thrasher, and their "Legging Ankle" pants in Pigment Melon. I decided to put together three different outfits to sort out my dilemma; hopefully by the end of this, I will have made a decision on which pair of pants I will add to my summer wardrobe!


This first outfit was inspired by Sundry's "Raglan 3/4 Top" in Coral, one of Yu Fashion's newest acquisitions. Coral is one of my favorite colors, and it just happens to be the color of the season! I paired this top with AG's "Stilt Roll Up(s)" and Chan Luu's "Ikat Print Scarf" in Shrimp Combo. A large bag is essential for carrying all a girl's necessities, so I've added Rebecca Minkoff's "Lovers Tote" in Almond. For a finishing touch, I chose Ugg's "Elyza" flip flops in Black to keep this look simple and comfortable. Add a Chan Luu wrap bracelet and some JK arm candy to give this look some added pizazz!


This next look is one of my favorites! I started off with 7FAM's "Slim Cigarette" jeans in Light Grey, and paired them with Nation's "Chinatown Tank" in White. This top is my current basic fave; it's cut higher under the arms, so a bandeau is not necessary, not to mention its flowiness hides any extra dessert you may have decided to indulge in! I've added the AG "Harper" denim jacket in Topanga Embroidery, and Samra's  "Studded" flats in Grey. My favorite part of this outfit is definitely the bag I chose: Rebecca Minkoff's  "Moonstruck" in Almond; the cross-body style and studs are absolutely  to die for! For jewelry, I think an arm party, and a long necklace would be the perfect finishing touch to this casually cool outfit.


This final look is the perfect spring outfit! I started with AG's "Legging Ankle" pants in Pigment Melon, and paired it with 7FAM's "Denim Jacket with Pearls" in Light Destroyed. To keep the focus on the jacket and pants, I added the "Ella Top" in Beige from Parker. I chose Rebecca Minkoff's "Cupid" bag in Slate a taupe-y shade, to compliment all the light colors in the outfit. Finally, I used Samra's "Studded" flats in Taupe/Pewter to finish off the look. Don't forget to throw together an arm party, and put on your favorite silver disc earrings (Catherine Popesco would be my suggestion!), to finish off the look!

Clearly, I've grown to love ALL these pants equally, so my best, most logical solution to this dilemma is to get all three pairs of pants! Farewell RRSP...you've been spent well!

Naven: Baroque Beauty

OMG...I'm in LOVE with Naven's "Tuxedo Blazer" in Baroque! It's definitely bold, but SUCH a stunner!!! I love it styled with a denim top and shorts, sooooooooo cool!!! It would also look great as a topper to a basic white tank and leather skinnies, or over a vintage rocker tee and boyfriend jeans.

*The Baroque print is also available in the "Bardot Blouse," (bottom right.)

Splendid Fave!!!

"2 Pocket Pullover" received in Sand and Mint

Splendid's "2 Pocket Pullover" has quite the following, and why wouldn't it?!? It's super comfortable and easy to wear. I love it paired with distressed shorts (above), but think it would also be fabulous under a blazer, skinny jeans, and booties.

*Jane, this top would look amazing with your 7FAM pink/gold skinnies ;)

Splendid

We just unpacked a box FULL of Splendid goodies!!! If comfortable, stylish clothing is what you're after, you must stop in for a closer look. The following are two of our early favourites:

"Swing Tank" received in White

"Tulip Skirt" in Black

How amazing is the "Tulip Skirt" in Black?!? We're loving it worn with a fitted tank, denim jacket, and booties. SO cute!!!

Sundry

We just received a variety of fashionable basics from Sundry, one of our new favourite lines. From tanks to long-sleeved tees, we received them all! And, as a bonus, some of the pieces came in Coral, one of this season's hottest colors! Have a look below at the different styles received:

*From left clockwise: "Cotton Voile Tank," "Raglan Tee," "Raglan 3/4 Sleeve Top," and "Cotton Voile Button Down," all in Assorted Colors.

James Perse

Perfect timing for those of you planning on a quick getaway, we just received a shipment of James Perse. These pieces are always incredibly comfy and versatile, PERFECT for travel!!! It was definitely difficult, but the following are some of our top picks:

"Sleeveless Rouched Dress" in Burro Pigment

 James Perse's "Sleeveless Rouched Dress" in Burro Pigment is FABULOUS!!! With its scoop neckline, fitted form, and just above the knee length, this dress will be ideal for any and all vacation excursions.

"Pacific Stripe Racerback Dress" in Navy/White

 If you're a fan of the nautical look, you'll love the "Pacific Stripe Racerback Dress" in Navy/White. The dress is slightly gathered at the hips and lined, which is great for those of us who have extra "bits" to hide!!!

"Pacific Stripe Pencil Skirt" in Navy/White

I LOVE the "Pacific Stripe Pencil Skirt" in Navy/White, sooooooooo adorable. I think it looks adorable styled as is in the picture (above) with sneakers and a tee, but for a slightly dressier look, pair it with a fitted tank, denim jacket, and flip flops.

Vince

New goodies just in from Vince...

Vince's "Cap Sleeve Blouse" in White (above) is a casual, silk top with a concealed button placket and gradual high-low hemline. Because of its oversized silhouette, this top looks best paired with a slimmer bottom, whether it be jeans and/or shorts.

I LOVE linen tops, and Vince has a great one in their "Long Sleeved Pocket Tees." Available in both Heather Grey (top left) and White (top right), this drapey, lightweight tee is perfect for all your favourite skinnies. The drop shoulders and front pocket detail gives this top an element of "character," adding to its overall appeal. 

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE these!!!

Travel Made Easy

We're all very excited over Rebecca Minkoff's "Dylan Tote" in Navy...such a fabulous style and the perfect size for travel. The perforated leather and studded detail gives this bag some added oomph, making it ideal for both day and night.

Ella Moss

I adore the "Kaleidoscope Tile Dress" in Pout from Ella Moss...love, love, love ALL the colours. Paired with a cropped denim jacket, and ankle booties, THIS will be a great "patio sitting, bellini drinking" outfit!

Britt's Must Have!!!

As I'm sure you all know, we recently received a large shipment of Joie, and included in this delivery was a wide variety of gorgeous, lace tops! I happen to have my eye on the "Cina Tank" in Bright Fuschia, and can't let the thought of its perfection leave my mind. The combination of pink and lace is truly genius; I can definitely see it being a staple in my spring/summer wardrobe.

 This tank would truly be SO versatile; dressed up with a pair of skinnies, a blazer, and great heels, OR down with a pair of ripped boyfriend jeans and wedges. This gorgeous color would also be perfect on a tropical getaway! OH NO...now along with buying the top, I may also have a vacation to plan! Why do I do this to myself???

"Cina Tank" in Bright Fuschia

Celebrate the joys of summer in this beautiful tank with me!!!

MAC Party

If you're anything like me, you will NEVER get your fill of Rebecca Minkoff handbags. How could you when she keeps making them in such fabulous colours?!? It's impossible to resist, impossible!!! Below are just two more options for those of you looking to incorporate some colour this spring:

"Mac Clutch" in Poppy Pink

"Mac Clutch" in Navy

HOH Jewels

Nicole Richie

We couldn't do a Winter Kate blog without also doing one on House Of Harlow, now could we?!? Nicole Richie's jewellery line really captures that bohemian free-spiritedness we've all come to identify with her. Each piece is artfully thought out with the stone and crystal selections carefully sourced. Below are just some of the gems received:

"Nomadic Warrior Arrow Necklace" in Yellow Gold

"White Sand Sunburst Station Necklace" in Yellow Gold

"Black Diamond Aven Cuff" in Tri-Tone

"Rif Pebble Cuff" in Rose Gold Plate

If you're a fan of Ms. Richie's style, OR if you're a Bohemian Princess yourself, these pieces are ALL must haves whether you wear them on their own or in combination with old favourites.
