Debbie Pant by Ewanika

i want: Debbie Pant by Ewanika

I’ve been obsession over the Debbie Pant by Toronto based designer Ewanika. They look like a great convergence of style and function.  They got some room in the thigh and hips which I like a lot.  The pockets look like they sit flat, sometimes that style has a tendency to gape. I’m so glad that these roomier styles of pants are everywhere now. It’s perfect for track legs.  I like that Ewanika uses customers as models.  This is Leslie Wormworth an Ewanika customer since 2001. EWANIKA 1083 Bathurst Street Toronto, ON

United Nude Frame

i want: United Nude Spring Summer 2010 Shoes

United Nude has some amazing shoes for Spring Summer 2010.  I’m particularly fond of the Frame style. The United Nude Frame is a return to United Nude’s architectural roots. As the most important part of any structure is its frame, the shoe’s heel is lightweight carbon fiber, the upper is luxurious leather and together they seamlessly form one. The Frame is a sexy high heeled construction. Cup X Sandal Cosmo Cup Goddess Cup Pump images: unitednude.com

Tale Wedge by Eileen Shield for Maria Cornejo

i want: Tale Wedge by Eileen Shield for Maria Cornejo

The lovely Nathalie Aktinson send me a link to the Tale wedge by Eileen Shields for Maria Cornejo. “These new Zero+Maria Cornejo shoes somehow remind me of you…” the message reads. She is completely on target here, I really like these wedge booties.  The cutout is perfect and I love all the colourways.  The white stands out to me the most. I have a total soft spot for Zero + Maria Cornejo. I love her clothing and prints. The Spring 2008 collection from Zero was my first New York Fashion Week show.  Zero + Maria Cornejo women’s ready to wear is available at Holt Renfrew and Jonathan + Olivia.  Shoes have to be ordered online or a trip to the States is in order. images: zeromariacornejo.com

i want: Skinny Belts by Brave Leather

Skinny Belts by Brave Leather The whole tying the belt thing is a pretty old trend now but I am only now really enjoying it.  It’s to the point where I want to wear it myself.  That brings Brave Leather into the picture.  Their skinny belts you can tie look great. images: courtesy of Brave Leather

Dr. Martens Spring 2010 - Diva

Dr. Martens Spring 2010 – Women’s

I went to the Spring 2010 preview for Dr. Martens. We got a look at the 50th anniversary options too. I didn’t bring my camera and took crappy Blackberry photos. They suck so I’m posting the pro stuff. I’m not a big fan of the Diva series. I know I’m not the norm because I’ve heard many positive things about them. Call me a traditionalist. The metallic Docs are hilarious. I think the electric blue are my favourite. So obnoxious. The Tec Tuff shoes have a white sole. They look and feel like canvas, breathable and water resistant. I really like the grommets on these boots. The Triumph boots are my favourite. I love how you can make them slouchy and expose the plaid or tie them up like regular Docs. They also have ribbon laces as well as regular laces. Dr. Martens are available in Toronto at Neon and Get Outside. images: Courtesy of Dr. Martens

Fawn Boutique Spring 2010 Arrivals

Fawn Boutique Spring 2010 Arrivals

I visited Fawn Boutique on the same day I visited Chasse Gardée. I went crazy with the Olympus E-PL1 and took a bunch of pictures of the spring 2010 new arrivals. I talked to Kasha about the new items. She pointed out great pieces from newly acquired label SHIN, the Line Knitwear leather jackets, the new Complex Geometries and [Blank] denim. I was drooling over pretty much everything in the store. It’s my favourite store in Toronto and I love Kasha’s buying. She is such a great curator of clothing. I was wandering the streets with my friend Jaime Woo who captured some photos of me in Fawn . Fawn 967 Queen St W Toronto (647)334-4703

Chasse Gardee Spring 2010 Arrivals

Chasse Gardée Spring 2010 Arrivals

I stopped in to Chasse Gardee over the weekend. It was a nice day and I was taking the Olympus E-PL1 for a spin. Outside of a runway room I seem too be doing alright with the camera. There are a lot of new shoes in the store so I decided to go crazy with the camera and snap away. A Détacher” are some new additions. I love the lace up wedge sandals. I didn’t remember to make note of the boot brand.  They are beautiful.  A more modern version of the Frye boot.  A little sleeker. LD Tuttle has some amazing shoes.   I really like the ribbon effect and exposed zipper details.  The grey shoes are pretty special. I’m not a feather or fringe shoe person but the Tuttle’s are damn hot. The jewellery pictured is from Eliza who is Toronto based. After my Saturday shooting with the Olympus E-PL1, I’m in love. I don’t want to give it back, waaaa. 🙂 See all my photos from Chasse Gardee Chasse Gardée 1084 Queen Street …
