oldies but goodies
We’ve all heard the saying, “fashion goes in cycles.” Well, there are certain posts that I’m not quite ready to let go of so I decided to create a new category. I’m calling it Oldies but Goodies. Basically, once a week I will be resurrecting one of my favorite looks from the past for your viewing pleasure.
my valentinos
I remember walking into Holt Renfrew in Toronto and seeing the Valentino glossy peep-toe pumps for the first time. The pumps were elevated on a clear display stand and as soon as they came within my line of vision I was completely dumbfounded. I had one of those cheesy, surreal moments as everything went silent and it looked as though crepuscular rays shone on the pumps ever so brightly. All I could do was gasp. To be able to capture elegance and femininity in a shoe so exquisitely… I gained a new level of respect for Valentino that day. This Christmas, Santa was especially generous and brought me two pairs of these signature bow pumps. I must have been a really good girl last year.
there’s something about bruce
I had the immense pleasure of cuddling with my friend’s adorable french bulldog, Bruce, before heading out to a birthday dinner on Saturday. I’m crazy about dogs, especially when they’re affectionate and smart. It’s incredible how little it takes before feelings of attachment kick in.
Foley + Corinna
I am going through something of a “Foley + Corinna” phase – buying their dresses online in anticipation of the sunny season to come. I also noticed a behavioral pattern emerging in the way that I deal with new additions to my wardrobe. I can’t seem to be able to resist wearing the new piece for the earliest possible occasion. For instance, I went out for drinks at Santana Row last night and felt compelled to wear a dress that came in the mail that same day. It’s almost like I had no choice in the matter; the urge was beyond me and I just had to make it work.
