Wildfox Tees? Yes Please!!!

The sun has finally emerged from behind the clouds, I'd say it's because it wanted a sneak peek at our NEW Wildfox delivery!!!

We received four fabulously fun tees: the "Magical Owl Perfect Tee" in Vintage Black, "Framed Perfect Tee" in Vintage Lace, "Triple Threat Camden Top" in Romantic, and "Vintage Paris Tourist Camden Top" in Buttercup. We've had both bodies before and LOVED them, so are super excited that they're back with quirky new graphics!

The "Perfect Tee" is flowy and easy to wear; we love it half tucked into distressed denim shorts and/or skinnies; the "Camden Top" is incredibly soft and comfy much like our FAVE, the "Baggy Beach Jumpers"!!! If you've ever owned one, you completely know what we're talking about! ;)

As we've stated time and time again, we really do have the BEST DRESSED clientele in the city!!!

7FAM: "Mid Rise Ankle Skinny"

 "Mid Rise Ankle Skinny" in Black Jeather

7FAM's "Mid Rise Ankle Skinny" in Black Jeather is a shorter version of their bestselling "Skinny" and the perfect length to show off all your cute summer shoes! The mid rise waist is a natural, super comfy fit, and its subtle waxed coating gives off a dressier vibe; wear them with a silky tank and strappy wedges for the perfect going-out ensemble!

LLR Vintage: Straw Hats

"Summer Daydreamer Paper Straw Fedora" in Black and White

We are SO in love with LLR Vintage's "Summer Daydreamer Paper Straw Fedora(s)" in Black And White. Composed of intricately woven straw, these hats are perfect for summer and an absolute MUST whether paired with a "shorts and tee" outfit to maxi dresses and bikinis!

What's Mabel Wearing???

Today, Mabel is looking the perfect mix of cozy and glam!!! Shes decided to layer Rail's "Hunter Long Sleeved Shirt" in White/Marine over Lauren Moshi's "Rocker Teddy Edda Tee" in White. To glam up this look, shes chosen Jenny Bird's "Artemis Collar", an assortment of long layering necklaces by Jocelyn Kennedy, and LLR's "Hopeless Dreamer Wool Fedora" in Black. Mabel's sure to go unnoticed no matter what she does today! :) 

Cynthia Vincent: LBD

Cynthia Vincent's "Short Sleeve Ruffle Mini" in Black is the perfect definition of a LBD! Featuring an elastic waistband and tiered ruffle bottom, this is a TOTAL beauty, such an effortless stunner and super easy to wear! I LOVE this dress paired with a floppy hat, ankle boots, and a multi-chain necklace.

Although black, this is definitely NOT your typical LBD!

Can we take a minute to look with amazement at Chan Luu's "Mirrored Embellished" and "Gypsy Embellished Maxi Skirts"?!! Absolute JAW DROPPERS! Though embellished and adorned on the finest of silks, both skirts look fabulous dressed down with the addition of a linen tank, sandals, and, what else? TONS of Chan Luu jewels!!! AHHMAZING!!!

7FAM: Classic Skinny

 "Skinny" in Authentic Pacific Cove 

7FAM's "Skinny" in Authentic Pacific Cove encompasses the look of your go-to worn in skinny jeans with fading and distressing throughout.

AG: Distressed Detail

"Robyn Jacket" in Blue Jay Mend

It's spring, so you're looking for that perfect denim jacket, am I right?!! Well, look no further, AG has you covered with their new "Robyn Jacket" in Blue Jay Mend! It's truly ideal for spring as it's both lightweight and light-washed, the perfect "throw on" piece to any outfit! I LOVE the distressed detailing on this jacket, sets it apart from all the others out there.

 

"Legging" in Bora

AG's "Legging" in Bora are fabulous, and absolutely a MUST-HAVE!!! They're incredibly comfortable and look great worn as is, or, for an even more casual look, rolled up at the hem. It's difficult at times finding distressed denim that doesn't look too torn and tattered, but these ones definitely fit the bill!

Rails, Rails, Rails!!!

                                  "Britt" in Cranberry/Cobalt Check & Navy/Teal/Pink 

Hooray for Rails!!! We've received a HUGE shipment of our favorite plaids! New to the block is the "Britt", a classic style with double front pockets and rolled short sleeves. Hopefully, with warmer weather just around the corner, this top will be perfect with distressed denim, a statement necklace, and pumps for a night out on the town, or, dress it down with denim shorts and sandals.

"Hunter" in White/Navy/Mint & Mint/Cobalt Check

Also in is the "Hunter", one of Rail's bestselling styles, and for very good reason! Available in a multitude of colours, this top is incredibly versatile. I love the look of this style in particular paired with a leather jacket, white skinnies, and heeled sandals.

"Kendra Cotton" in Malibu/White & "Carmen" in Orchid

I'm OBSESSED with the "Kendra Cotton" in Malibu/White; the fabrication is super soft and extremely lightweight. For the quintessential summer outfit, pair this top with a graphic tee, denim shorts, and sandals. I'm also completely in LOVE with the "Carmen" in Orchid; the dark cranberry colors are perfect year round, and would look AMAZING paired with leather shorts, layered chain necklaces, and booties!

Hurry in before they all disappear :)

Lauren Moshi LOVE!!!

It's ALWAYS a good day at Yu when we get new Lauren Moshi, and its probably a good day for all our lovely customers as well! You can NEVER have enough Lauren Moshi!!! Below are two of my favourites, but don't worry, there are plenty more styles in store; come in and see for yourself...

I absolutely LOVE the "Petra Hamsa Tank" in Blue (above)! It radiates positive vibes, and is definitely a summer festival necessity. With a low scooped back, it's perfect for keeping cool and showing off one of Free People's signature lace bralettes!!! Throw up the peace sign and chill out in this boho-babe tank.

Faded, slightly distressed, and a worn-in feel...a brand "new" tee has never felt more familiar! LM's "Diamond Tongue Wildcat Maglan Tee" in White/Black is totally fierce...it's time to let your inner Fay shine!!!

7FAM: Skinny and Fabulous

Skinny? Check. Ankle crop? Check. Perfect light wash? Check. Flattering fit? Check.

What more could you possibly want in a pair of jeans?! Oh right, super soft denim. Well, these "Cropped Skinn(ies)" in Super Sanded Blue sure fit the bill!!! I LOVE the faded look and feel of these jeans...absolutely PERFECT for the summer!

"Cropped Skinny" in Super Sanded Blue

Rebecca Taylor GOODIES

 Rebecca Taylor's latest delivery is absolutely a dream come true! SO many pretty things...

 "Silk Ombre Embellished Tank" in Slate

Another great silk from Rebecca Taylor! This (above), is what I like to call the "princess' day off" top. When she's NOT in a ball gown and glass slippers, the Yu "princess" would be wearing this pretty silk tank. The cascading stud and crystal detailing down the front, adds the perfect touch of glitz and glam to a classic silhouette. My favourite way to wear this top? With distressed skinnies, of course!

"Tweed and Lace Jacket" in Cream Mix

RT's "Tweed and Lace Jacket" in Cream Mix is the perfect combination of structured and casual; it screams cool sophistication. The gorgeous lace panels offset the raw edges of the tweed and provide a nice balance to the heavy zipper detail. Throw it on over a silky tank and jeans for an outfit MADE for shopping and brunch with the girls!

 "Indian Floral Maxi and Top" in Cement and Aubergine Combo

I LOVE this exotic floral print! Sooo incredibly enchanting, it will transport you straight to the heart of India. Imagine wearing either dress or top with a big, floppy hat, strappy sandals, and oversized sunnies strolling through the crowded marketplace of destinations unknown...INTRIGUING!!! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE both of these!!!

 "Short Sleeve Novelty Eyelet Top" in Chalk

Boho meets feminine structure with this GORGEOUS top! Intricate eyelet detailing and pintuck pleats turn a sheer white tee into a work of art. It's time your favourite everyday top gets a feminine upgrade, and this is the perfect candidate!!!

Now, how will you choose just ONE to bring home?!!

Free People: Knits

                     "Annabelle Crochet Pullover" in Ivory and "Circle Cardigan" both in Ivory Combo

Free People, our fave, has just arrived!!! Both these knits are amazing and perfect for spring/summer. The "Annabelle Crochet Pullover" in Ivory Combo is absolutely adorable, SO effortless and chic with denim shorts and sandals. The "Circle Cardigan," also in Ivory Combo, is ridiculously cool!!! I adore the open, flowy style...perfect with a sundress and booties. Free People NEVER disappoints!!
