I spent this Sunday picnicking with my family. The weather was so gorgeous that I had to put my studying plans on hold for some of that California goodness. I love pairing relaxed maxis with statement jewellery – it’s my go-to combination for casual-chic looks.

flying with one wing
I’m working on a movie tomorrow where I’ll be playing one of the girlfriends of a mafia boss (lol, I guess he’s not big on monogamy – how cliche for a gangster). Anyway, it’s a period piece so I had to come in for a fitting this morning. As soon as I walked into the wardrobe truck I was “on cloud nine”; it was filled with racks and racks of gorgeous vintage dresses, shoes, and accessories. And of course the first question that came out of my mouth was, “when are you having the set sale?” Apparently it’s a little too early in the production stages for an answer to that question but – for those of you who live in the Toronto area - I will post its date and location as soon as it’s set and revealed.
Cream Delight
Today’s look-of-the-day lingers somewhere in the creamy pearl dimension. The delicacy of the softly quilted crinoline blouse by Zac Posen is given more volume and detail through the velvet trim and underlapping lace. To me, there is something baroque about this interesting piece and I wanted to play on that. The necklace and the multi-strand pearl bracelet are meant to intensify its vintage-inspired quality without being distracting. Admittedly, the long strap of the purse is reminiscent of a different era but I think it still looks harmonious with the other pieces .
