Wildfox: Valentine's Blues

Brand NEW Wildfox in! We just received two Valentine's Day (oops, a little tardy, but still FAB nonetheless!) inspired pieces that are perfect for lounging around, and guaranteed to put you in the spring fling mood! The "Island Tank Cupid" in Clean Black is humorous and very, VERY cute!!! This lightweight tank is ideal for the spring/summer season when the heat is SURE to hit! For an edgy look, pair with boyfriend jeans, and a chic motorcycle jacket.

Introducing...Sack's!!!


We're SUPER excited about Sack's, the newest addition to the Yu family!!! Based out of Israel, Sack's combines luxury with cool, contemporary styles. They create trendsetting styles using luxe materials such as cashmere, silk, and pure cotton, think silky tanks and t-shirts all infused with a bohemian twist!

 These new tanks by Sack's are SO pretty and are absolute essentials for spring! Both tanks pictured (below) are made of 100% silk and have an extremely luxurious feel! The "Spaghetti Strap Tank" received in Black and Ivory is super versatile; it would be fabulous worn under a classic cardigan with jeans, wedges, and a statement necklace. The "V-Neck Tank" in Pure White features a cross over hem and peekaboo back slit revealing the perfect amount of skin.

LINE!!!

We're over the moon in LOVE with Line's "Franklin" leather jacket in Pachyderm, a beautifully rich charcoal. As always, the leather is super soft and supple, and the fit, very flattering. This jacket transitions quite nicely between casual and dressy, which is true of most Line leathers.

Also new is the "Thompson" dress in Desert Storm (below), such a flattering and comfortable dress, perfect for any occasion. Not only are we fans of the neutral colouring, but love the fact that the length can be "adjusted" slightly due to the rouching detail. It's a fabulous dress that will be in constant rotation for years to come!

What's Mabel Wearing???

Mabel's sporting a rather "SPRINGY" outfit today! All the fabulous colors and floral prints we've been receiving lately have gotten her SUPER excited for the upcoming season. She has on Rebecca Taylor's "Sweet William Tee" in Scarlet and AG's "Robyn" denim jacket in Torrent. To accessorize, Mabel opted for a blue Chan Luu scarf to compliment the colours in her shirt, Rebecca Minkoff's "Flirty Enamel Stud" cross-body bag in Nude, and gems by Julie Vos and Catherine Popesco.





How better to get in the spring spirit then by dressing in some new spring clothes. We like the way Mabel thinks!!! ;)

Equipment: Printed Shells

"Reagan" in Nautical Blue Crowded Dot and "Kyle w/ Contrast Trim" in Bright White Wandering Lady Bug

We're SO loving the fact that along with their classic, button down blouses, Equipment also makes some of the cutest shells around!!! Both the "Reagan" in Nautical Blue Crowded Dot and "Kyle w/ Contrast Trim" in Bright White Wandering Lady Bug prints have a summery, whimsical feel to them. Both are slightly oversized with a higher than average neckline making them ideal toppers for your favourite skinnies and ankle boots.

Equipment: Florals And Spots

"Slim Signature w/ Contrast Collar Blouse" in Peacoat Floral (L) and "Reese Blouse" in Stone Untamed Leopard (R)

In our world, florals and leopard print are, have always been, and will always be considered neutrals. Paired with fabulous basics such as a great boyfriend blazer, or to die for leather jacket, both these blouses are sure to make a statement! My personal favourite is the "Slim Signature w/ Contrast Collar Blouse" in Peacoat Floral; there's a vintage-y bohemian vibe to this top that I absolutely adore...can't wait to see it paired with denim cut-off shorts and ankle booties. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!!!

Rebecca Taylor: Silk Shift

"Sweet William Dress" in Scarlett

This "Sweet William Dress" in Scarlett by Rebecca Taylor is absolutely fabulous!!! The straight, simple cut makes it super easy to wear, and the charming floral print is fresh and springy.  The silky crepe fabric is finished off with white piping detail for a clean, classic look. Wear this dress with delicate, heeled sandals as well as a stack of gold "Love" bracelets for the perfect, lady-like spring outfit!

Rebecca Taylor

 "Guipure Lace Top" in Cream and "Wildcat Print Blouse" in Cream Grey

Will lace and leopard print ever go out of style??? ABSOLUTELY NOT!!! Rebecca Taylor makes her mark on these classic patterns with the "Guipure Lace Top" in Cream and "Wildcat Print Blouse" in Cream/Grey. The former features a lined, delicate lace overlay with silk trimming on the sleeves, all with an edgy cut that keeps the top from looking too precious. The latter is as fierce as it is feminine, with a deep v-neck and flattering high-low hemline. For a refined yet casual outfit, wear either top with dark, ankle cut skinny jeans, strappy black heels, and wrists FULL of jingle jangles!

Vince: Joggers

"Leather Side Strap Track Pant" in Black

The "Leather Side Strap Track Pant" in Black by Vince is waaaay cooler than your average pair of track pants! The fitted silhouette gets a modern update with leather detailing down the sides, as well as a drawstring waistband, and thick, elasticized ankle cuffs. For a super cool and stylish ensemble, pair these pants with sexy black heels, a bright, silk top, and your favourite leather jacket!

Vince: Lux Leathers

"Vintage Leather Moto Jacket" in Grain and "Paper Leather Scuba Jacket" in Black

Vince has created not one, but TWO perfect leather jackets that we're super excited to get our hands on! The "Vintage Leather Moto Jacket" in Grain and "Paper Leather Scuba Jacket" in Black both have flattering fits, and come in timeless, neutral colours that make them great investment pieces that you'll have and wear for years to come. The former features an asymmetrical zip front with a snap down collar. The latter is exactly as it sounds, paper thin leather which makes it super lightweight. The ribbed under-sleeves provides a close, yet comfy fit. How amazing would both these jackets
looked tossed over a loose black tee, distressed boyfriend jeans, black suede heels, and a pair of cool Wildfox sunnies?!!
Share:

Vince: Pretty Toppers

 "Wrap Blouse" in Beige and "Sleeveless Overlay Tank" in Hunter Green

I'm totally loving Vince's "Wrap Blouse" in Beige and "Sleeveless Overlay Tank" in Hunter Green!!! Both tops are the perfect balance of stylish and classy! The "Wrap Blouse" is loose and luxe with a draped front, and banded hem for a "tucked in" look. The "Sleeveless Overlay Tank" has sheer detailing in the front and back making for a subtly, sexy vibe. Either top would be STUNNING worn with coated black jeans, studded heels, and fingers and wrists stacked with silver and gold!

Twelfth Street By Cynthia Vincent

Twelfth Street by Cynthia Vincent always delivers beautiful and timeless classics, with a hint of bohemian flair. Their most recent "drop" perfectly exemplifies the brand's free, yet sophisticated spirit!!!

"Lace Bib Peplum Blouse" in White
I'm SOOOOOOO loving the "Lace Bib Peplum Blouse" in White! Gorgeous, no?!!! I love the pairing of such a delicate and feminine blouse with edgy, leather shorts, but can't wait to see it with distressed skinnies and ankle boots...I'm ALL over the bohemian vibe of this top, FABULOUS!!!

"Wide Placket Shirt Dress" in Black

I absolutely LOVE the "Wide Placket Shirt Dress"...definitely a new contender for my favourite LBD!!! The loose and flowy fit gives it a carefree feel, while still maintaining some structure. This dress is a breath of fresh air in a world where "sexy" means tight, curve-hugging, and revealing...Cynthia Vincent proves that a combination of casual and classy CAN be sexy! Hooray to that!!! 
Share:

Happiness

These new tees from Happiness Brand sure live up to their name! How can one not smile looking at these fun, cheery tops?!!


My personal favourite is "...It's Hard to Be Me", because SERIOUSLY who hasn't thought this? The struggles we go through daily in order to look fabulous are all too real, LOL! Perfection is hard to achieve, and even harder to maintain...am I right ladies?!! ENJOY.

AG: Denim Update

Just in from AG are the "Stilt Roll Up" in 11 Years Journey and "Legging Ankle" in 11 Years Swapmeet...

"Stilt Roll Up" in 11 Years Journey

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the "Stilt Roll Up(s)"!!! These are the perfect cigarette fit, this time in a flattering cropped length giving you the perfect amount of "ankle cleavage"! Pair these with a basic tee and flip flops for an everyday, casual look, or, with a silky blouse and pointed toe pumps for a dressier option.

"Legging Ankle" in 11 Years Swapmeet

With the same cropped length, the "Legging Ankle" again gives the perfect peek of ankle, while shredded detailing gives it a feel of a vintage flea market find.

As always, AG delivers denim that you'll be LIVING in!!! You do NOT want to pass these two pairs up, especially with the spring season (soon) upon us!

OMG, I'm totally LOVING Soft Joie's "Elexus Jacket" in Fatigue!!! As you know, the cargo trend is HUGE right now and will only get stronger as the season progresses; this topper is most definitely a MUST-HAVE! I love how soft and lightweight it is; the perfect layering piece all year round. The slimmer silhouette is also a plus, making for a more feminine shape.

I picture this cozy gem styled with our FAVE "Josephina(s)" by 7FAM and converse sneakers for a casual spring look.

Both wedged  beauties have a substantial platform furthering adding to their comfort. The former would be fantastic worn with cropped jeans while the latter would finish off a summer dress beautifully.

FP: Perfect Toppers

Obviously NO Free People blog entry would be complete without mentioning what they're perhaps best known for, their bohemian inspired tops. With each and every delivery, there's always a slew of them to choose from making it difficult to pick a favourite. Because of this, we've decided to "compromise" and feature our top two...

What's Mabel Wearing???


Mabel couldn't wait to get her hands on our NEW Cuchara necklaces, so her outfit today is centered around her favorite one, the "Frozen". She loves this necklace for its edgy feel, and pop of turquoise. To compliment this stunner, Mabel has decided to wear Rebecca Taylor's "Embellished Tweed Blazer" in Cream and structured "Floral Lace Tee" in Black. She also has on Chan Luu's "Sequin Bralette" and Rebecca Minkoff's "Darcy Satchel". Although each piece is rather edgy on its own, the overall look is classy and sophisticated, the perfect outfit to wear for a night on the town!

Britty's Bargain!!! GET EXCITED!!!


Well, it appears my frequent bargain finds have given me a bit of a reputation; I've now earned my own little column, "Britty's Bargain", and this is my first "OFFICIAL" entry!!! I never thought I'd be considered a responsible shopper, but apparently, anything's possible!
This week, on our sale wall, I've discovered Line's "Nonchalant Sweater" in Cast Iron. I've liked this sweater since we first received it, but now that it's on sale, I like it even more! This sweater is such an easy piece; I love its longer length...perfect for both jeans and leggings. The initial asking price was $185, now on sale for $129.50, WHAT A DEAL!!!
Share:

Britt's Must Have!!!

This week's installment of "Britt's Must Have" also coincides with the introduction of a new and FABULOUS jewellery line, CUCHARA!!!
Based out of Toronto, Canada, CUCHARA is created and designed by Edilou Canedo. Her jewellery line,  best described "as an amalgamation of edgy and playful, with a dash of elegance...(combines) island bohemian chic and grimey city edginess (in the BEST possible way)." Combining rare gemstones, beads, and heavy chains, Canedo's work are definite pieces of art!

I am MIND BLOWN over Cuchara's "debut" collection of statement necklaces! They're absolutely STUNNING!!! I can't even begin to tell you which ones I like best because I love them ALL, and for different reasons. However, if I had to limit myself, I would pick the "Bubble" and black toned "Cherish" necklaces. I love the former for its bright pops of color, and interesting shape, the latter for its edginess and use of chain and gems.
These are SUCH great necklaces; I would definitely find a reason to wear them with everything! My fave look though, is with a leather jacket and simple tee...PERFECTION!!!


The "Bubble"
The "Cherish" in Black

I really look forward to seeing what other ones we get in, too bad my bank account doesn't feel the same way!!! :(
