Amelia Earhart’s outfit I had no idea Amelia Earhart was so cool. I love this look. The jacket and boots, sigh. I need to reproduce it somehow. I don’t own a leather jacket and really had no interest in one until now. I will have to troll the vintage stores to find something perfect. Style.com has Amelia Earhart as their style icon. This is a really great look too. images: style.com
A BinBin Striped Dress This was a great find at the BinBin Sample Sale. It goes great with my other nautical inspired gear. I’m loving the mini trend this summer so I’ve been obsessed with finding more.
I get some funny submissions at times. Yesterday, I received information about the CPC STRAPâ„¢ which claims to be a hip and stylish way to wear your cellphone. I have a couple of issues with this: 1. I don’t want to wear my cellphone and I think those that do have a serious problem, it’s a tool dammit. 2. These things are neither hip nor stylish. I would use the word ugly, tacky even. You can tell this person didn’t read my blog because then he would know that I have something called taste. Adding tacky jewelery off a cellphone holder is not something I would endorse as hip and stylish. Normally I would just ignore this stuff, but this was good blog post fodder. image: www.htl-wireless.com

Hello, If you came to my site because you read the article Kate’s skinny little clothes spark plus-sized backlash in the Toronto Star on Saturday, May 12, 2007, Welcome. I have commented on Kate’s line here and also have linked to other sites where you can see the clothes on real people. You can read that link here https://iwantigot.geekigirl.com/2007/05/03/kate-moss-topshop/
Business Week talks about how Burberry is going to ditch it’s signature plaid. I think this is a great idea, the plaid is overdone, attracted the wrong type of customer and of course, there are the knockoffs. This makes me more happy than their Fall Winter 2007 collection. What do you think about Burberry ditching the plaid?

Sigerson Morrison Shoes While they don’t have the pull of Gucci or LV these Sigerson Morrison shoes are great in silver.
I’m Not a Smug Twat bag This is the best parody I’ve seen on the whole Anya Hindmarch “I’m Not A Plastic Bag” tote craze that the sheep are lining up for hours for. Don’t worry Canadian sheep, Holt Renfew will be carrying these bags, so get calling for the waiting list. The bag is from London-based designer, Marissa Vandersee. She makes a hot hoodie too. via Catwalk Queen
There are 2 silver shoes this Spring/Summer 2007 season that have me captivated. First is these Romy silver booties by Gucci. So perfect, so my style. Second are these great sandals by Louis Vuitton I’ve been looking for something similar and cheaper all over town and haven’t had luck. Those of you that can afford this stuff in Toronto check Holt’s for the Gucci boots and Louis Vuitton for the sandals. I finally got my silver fix satisfied thanks to Nine West (more to come on that). images: style.com and louisvuitton.com
