WHILE WAITING FOR SANTA

Two things that rhyme with the holiday seasons are Red and Embellished sweaters.
Here are my favorites "du jour"

( below) Givenchy white stars sweater . This thing I like about this one is that it is unisex.

 I'm in love with this Jeremy Scott Adidas sweater

 Me Rocking my Red Lacoste cable knit ( by TKLR  . http://www.facebook.com/#!/tklrvintageshop?fref=ts) bought at a local vintage store http://www.facebook.com/thebackroommtl

this black mini dress is from a local Salvation Army.

 Vintage and thrift stores are most definately the best places to get one-of-a-kind knits.

BLACK AND WHITE FOR SPRING /SUMMER 2013

I'm in love with this BALMAIN jacket.

below is a look that I put together ...the oxfords for a day look , switch them for heels at night

Whoever decided that the black and white trend will be "en vogue" this coming spring is a genuis. Granted pairing black and white has been around since for ever like many other trends, it's going to be predominant this coming spring. Black and white florals will replace the usual pastel or rainbow flower prints we get around that time of the year .My favorite look will be black and white color blocked anything. Although I'm not a big fan of stripes, vertical lines make the body appear taller and leaner, so Im okay with that.

FASHION DU JOUR

For the past couple of weeks I've been procrastinating about blogging . I could blame it on the lack of inspiration or just plain laziness. Then I saw pictures of DENIS GAGNON'S pieces from his SPRING/SUMMER 2013 collection.

Not only that I love every single piece in this picture ( both on the woman and the man), but as soon as I saw this , my (fashion) mind , took me on a trip. I started to put outfits together( I would wear them separately)
I can see myself in the guy's harem pants paired with a dressy blouse and super tall heels.  Everything about that picture says sporty chic.
