This is a fun little crossbody bag from Tila March. The 4-year-old company is the brainchild of a French fashion editor, Tamara Taichman and a marketing executive in the leather luxury goods business, Nicolas Berdugo. The Japan Times has a great little article on the brand and some history. Tila March handbags are available in Canada exclusively though the online handbag retailer A TO ZANE. images: tilamarch.com
I’ve been preoccupied with these Desert High 3 boot by Acne even since I saw Tommy Ton of JakandJil wearing them. I mentioned that I was all over this lepoard print right now. Tommy just looked at me, smiled and said, “It’s because of Dries“. You can purchase these boots at the Acne online Men’s shop. images: acnestudios.com
The Diego Suede Studded Bucket Bag by Alexander Wang is my ultimate Spring Summer 2010 Bucket Bag. I was playing with it at Holt Renfrew and fell in lust with this bag. The hardware is beautiful and it’s pretty heavy and solid. I appreciate the masculine qualities of Alexander Wang handbags. My aversion to animal print is slowly being broken down. I love that there is a short and long strap for the bag. You can purchase this bag at Holt Renfrew or online at shopbop.com.
There is no reason why I should be paying attention to the Jean Low Cut Western Boots by Acne. None at all. However, the magenta colour keeps calling. How can you resist magenta boots? I know I can’t and hence why they are here. You can purchase these online at the Acne Shop. images: acnestudios.com
I saw these Sigerson Morrison Spring Summer 2010 shoes at The Room and I’m in love. They have a perfect all day heel height. The wood heel gives them an organic feeling. You can find these two styles at The Room in Toronto. Sigerson Morrison is available online at Zappos.
There are a few items I associate with my youth: Neon, Oakleys, Converse and G-Shock watches. I loved my old G-Shock watch, it was a man’s version but I didn’t care. I loved it’s chunkiness and digital display. I think women’s watches are a bit to delicate; I need the feeling of the huge watch on my arm. I’ve been slowly acquiring these old artifacts of youth and now that these G-Shocks come in bright colours I think I’m going to have to buy in again. Casio created the G-Shock Mini for women. They feature the same G-Shock style in smaller size for women’s proportions. They are cute too but I love all the bells and whistles that come with the men’s G-Shock. You can find G-Shock watches in Toronto at The Bay, Livestock, Solestop, Wal-mart, Sears and Little Burgundy. You can find G-Shock watches online at Zappos, Bloomingdales and Karmaloop. images: courtesy of Casio
Leave it to Lanvin to make bridal I like. I was trolling Net-a-Porter and saw items from the bridal line that I’ve heard lots about but never have seen until now. I’m a big fan of the dresses on the right in the images. The short ruffled one is my absolute favourite. What a fun dress to get married in and you wouldn’t even have to change for the reception. After the wedding, dye it another colour and you have a dress you can wear at other occasions. images: net-a-porter.com
Alaïa Leather wedge sandals Alaïa Lace-front peep-toe ankle boots I didn’t see any of notice the Alaïa sandals when I was at The Room taking photos. I love the detailing on both shoes and the Lace front peep-toe are my favourites. You can find both of these styles online at net-a-porter.com. Both Holt Renfrew and The Room sells Alaïa shoes in Toronto. images: net-a-porter.com
Givenchy Nappa Leather Open Toe Boots Perfect little adjustable slouch bootie. Available online at luisaviaroma.com and Saks.com. Givenchy Lace-insert patent-leather sandals I love the lace and patent sandal in this colour but you can also get in it black. The shoe is available online at Net-a-porter, Saks.com (black version) and farfetch.com (both colours). images: net-a-porter, luisaviaroma.com
I love this top by All Saints. It has all the design elements that attracts me. It kinda reminds me of Complexgeometries in a way. You can purchase the top online at the All Saints store. image: allsaints.com
