Miss Rowe swing coat This piece is from the debut Spring 2008 collection from Miss Rowe. She was at the TFI Press Breakfast, which I missed. A lot of her stuff has a lot of volume but I love this coat.
An Elroy Apparel jacket Organic clothing is just getting better and better. This beautiful jacket is by Vancouver native Leanne McElroy. I’m a big fan of this dress too. These items are from the Spring 2008 collection. Elroy Apparel is available in Toronto at Propaganda 686 Yonge St Toronto via notcouture.com
zero + maria cornejo knitwear Zero was one of the fashion shows I attended when I was in NYC for the spring collections. Holt Renfrew carries Zero in Canada.
Dolce & Gabbana lacquered cotton coat I love yellow so I was really drawn to this coat. Isn’t the dress awesome too.
After New York Fashion Week, I’m so glad that Paris has gone the opposite of neutral; thy’re going colour crazy. Dries has done the best prints so far. Love him. Of course I’m loving the accessories too.

I want I got reader Gloria wrote: This is a bit of a mundane quest, but I’m looking for a good blazer to dress up jeans … the places I go either have more conservative blazers more suited for business, or more stylish looks but not very well cut. I’m looking for something feminine, a little different, and hopefully not bank-breaking if possible (under a hundred dollars). If you can suggest some places, that would be great as it’s perfect blazer season! Your best bet right now is Femme de Carriere. Yes, the shop is more business orientated but they are having a great sale right now and blazers are cheap. I have like 3 suits from these guys and they are really good for the price. I’ve gotten 300 dollar blazers for 70-90 …
Loeffler Randall shoes and clothes I’ve previously gushed about Loeffler Randall shoes. They have a couple very cute coats to go along with their great shoes. Lets not forget the shoes after the jump…
Here are two finds I got at the Stella Luna Annual Clearance Sale, both were $15 a piece I now have a leather jacket in my wardrobe, a dark green one at that. This jacket was a little too big but I could resist its Mod influence. I love vintage coats my closet is full of them. The sovintagepatterns.com website is making me salivate with all the 60s patterns they have available. I wish I could sew.
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
