Vouge and W Magazine Face Off : September 2009 Issues

The Vogue by Steven Meisel takes us two the world of the sophisticated upper-class lifestyle. This story revolves around women who indulge themselves in opulence and impeccable polish. It’s a wonderful editorial from those seductive silhouettes to those playful details, what’s there not to like about fashion from those bygone days.

The next editorial by the September issue of W Magazine dedicates itself towards a more flamboyant approach of the 40s era. Lara Stone, Guinevere van Seenus and Edita Vilkevicute spend a day out on a picnic and seductively enjoy themselves at the lake.

Dannijo now at Holt Renfrew

Those pieces of jewellery designer-sisters Danielle and Jodie Snyder of DANNIJO make a perfect addition to my endlessly long wishlist. You need to visit their online store and get smitten with their collections. While picking those adorable examples of their work, you’ll find more to-die for goodies.

Style Notes: Sequins Shoes

Who says sequins are reserved for cocktail dresses and dance recitals? Take a cue fromRachel Bilson and Lauren Conrad and wear them during the day on your feet! Sequin pumps instantly update everything from skinny jeans to a little black dress. We love this multi-colored pair from Miu Miu. Shine on!

Wish List...

The timeless Frye style is a staple in any wardrobe. Paired up with a really fun and flirty dress or a pair of distressed jean shorts this is a fall must have piece.
We are loving this new flattering throw-on cami's. This Wilfred Bustier tank is a must have in our fall fashion wardrobe. We love the subtly structured shape.

Fall 2009 Trend Report


In addition to the more ladylike platform pump, the thigh-high boot is still going strong for fall. The shape can be either super skinny (à la Rodarte and Isabel Marant) or relaxed and easy (per Etro and Dries Van Noten); obviously the latter is a little more forgiving.

The neckline of the moment isn't for the faint of heart, as it plunges nearly to the waist and turns the spotlight on your lingerie!  This said, we love this look of a peek-a-boo lace bandeau or a simple triangle bra. Note to self: purchase an American Apparel triangle lace bra. 

Nylon Floral lace bra $22.00
Gloria V Bodysuit $55.00



Hows this for a statement piece






Take a look at these Michael Angel leggings from his just launched fall 2009 collection. These loud and vibrantly colored leggings promise to be nothing like ones we have ever seen before. This Aussie designer offers the leggings in two different fabrications- Lycra and mesh. Update: Check out Beyonce wearing Michael Angel in her Sweet Dreams video. 

Get Cozy in Sweats




Sweatpants have never been considered the epitome of cool or chic but they are definitely my favorite thing to throw on on a rainy day like today. These free city sweats are a perfect example of sweats that can be worn well given the right occasion. These sweats come in a rainbow of colors and look great paired down with a little white tee and flats or flip flops.
