I want this bag

Merry Christmas to ME

So it's been a bit of a rough ending to the year, so I'm doing it. I'm buying myself a Michael Kors bag!

Michael Kors Hamilton Quilted Satchel. Should I go with
this gunmetal colour or classic white?

And most likely a watch, since I've never owned one that didn't have a plastic strap or Disney characters on it.

fashion icon part deux : playing dress up

While Rachel is my style goddess when it comes to casual, everyday chic, she can also rock it on the red carpet with grace, ease and a little edge. I thought it only fair that I showcase some of my favourite looks from her that are a little more glamour, a little less jean chic.

What I adore about Rachel is that she takes enough risk to stand out, but knows what works for her petite body so as not to overwhelm. Most of the dresses below are minis or knee length, with one or two standout aspects that keep Rachel looking unique and gorgeous.

Roberto Cavalli

Louis Vuitton

Chanel (drool, if I may)

fashion icon

 Two of my extremely fashionable followers (Miss Kayla and Lady Ashli) have shown their love for their fave fashion icons, and here's my tribute to mine. Miss Rachel Bilson.

Bilson single handedly makes petite chic. Even when she is jet-setting from NY to Paris, she always looks cute, comfy, and immaculately styled. Rachel's unique look mixes high and low brands (H & M, topshop, Michael Kors, Phillip Lim), vintage, and unique and eclectic accessories (including my favourites, scarves, hats,bags and cocktail rings).

Some think her look is a tad understated, but it takes a keen eye for style to know when to stop…there's such a thing as too many accessories, colours, and prints. You know Bilson will mix and match casual looks, giving them a young spin.

She is the perfect example of how you can dress for yourself in comfy clothes, without compromising style. Heeled boots,sweaters, tights, scarves, and boyfriend jeans are staples. The overall look is fresh faced and equal parts trendy. Best of all, every look is polished and the perfect inspiration for ‘real life’.

And that's what I am all about; comfort and style for 'real life'.

So, who are YOUR style icons? Let me know you're actually taking time out of your day to read this by responding (pleaseandthankyou I'll love you forever!) You can have more than one. I still to this day still like some of the things Lindsay Lohan wears. I love Halle Berry's day to day style (it actually reminds me a lot of R.Bils!). I am always going to love Nicole Ritchie, but until I have two adorable kids with a tatted up rocker I cannot even begin to compete.

Jeggings-My New Obsession

I love my jeggings. When leggings first came on the scene I was all "pfft those are ridiculous". Fast forward and I love leggings, especially on days off with a cozy hoodie and FUggs (fake Uggs- I cannot afford or fathom spending $300-400 on these comfy feet protectors when I can spend $30 on a super cute pair from Wal Mart, Zellers or Payless).

When JEGGINGS first came around I thought the same, and I thought they were even more ridiculous because I thought "if you want to wear jeans, just wear jeans" and "if you REALLY need to wear leggings, then just wear black leggings".

Boy was I wrong.

I love you Jeggings, I don't care what other people say about our relationship, but you are going to be in my life for a long time. You lunge with me, you stretch with me, you tuck into my boots with me, you dress up with me.




In a nutshell

Jeggings+my legs+=fashionably comfortable

I want....

I can't wait to decorate the new bedroom/bathroom combo my amazing dad is creating for me! It's also a great way for me to keep myself occupied. I want, I want, I want!
