Allyssa, miu miu inspired nails.

I take pictures for my friend Allyssa's blog on my spare time, I loved her nails so much today that I wanted to share them with you! 

Have you seen the lovely miu miu glitter booties? Can't afford them? why not paint them on?

Inspiration of the week: Zoe Hart

My friends have been making fun of me for watching the new CW show "Hart of Dixie". I began watching  because I saw an ad with a picture of Zoe (Rachel Bilson)  wearing the Alexander Wang combat booties below (Can you blame me?). They are the perfect combination of heel and boot, feminine and masculine, but price... not so perfect. So you can see how I would jump at like the chance to ogle them in a less obsessive way.  For the first 3 episodes I could barely stand the thick southern accent and the small town banter, but it's grown on me and has been so worth it. 

Take a look for yourself:

 Hello sheer stripped blouse, flared leather shorts and beloved Alexander Wangs!
Okay, the guy's not so bad  either. 

 Love the piping detail on the jacket. 

Holiday dress! Unfortunately, we're not blessed with the same weather of Bluebell, Alabama

The candy blouse makes me drool..

 Flash back to the 90s? looks like sweaters tied around your waist are coming back... if you don't believe me take a look at this.

Fox tail charms: attached to men's bags, women's bags, attached to low rise and high rise pants, attached to jackets and sweaters. They're EVERYWHERE... but where did they come from?

Inspiration of the week: BOT

via boardoftradeco.
I had the great opportunity of working with The Board of Trade co. this past summer. The owners Eunice and David are Vancouver locals that decided to share their stylish eye with the city and open up a brand spankin' new shop in the heart of Strathcona/ Chinatown. They used their talents to bring us special designer pieces from places as far as Singapore and Thailand.
The picture above is from their most recent in house women's collection. Even though it's officially winter, I still love a good ankle cleavage. It always gives a plain pant an extra edge... not that these are plain, lace-drop-crotch pants? What more can a girl want? I also love the subtle blue of the blouse paired with the statement fur vest. All of these unique pieces in a vintage feeling photo is definitely, in Eunice's words, "immaculate".

Running from the cold.

 It was a bone chilling -10 degrees today, which seemed to make everyone speed off to their next warm destination. 

Luckily, I found some kind students that were bundled up enough to stop and let me take their picture. 

Inspiration of the week: Fanning sisters

What do I love about this photo? More like what's not to love?

 I know this photo was probably posed, but it looks oh so natural. This just shows how good at acting the Fanning sisters really are. I think the younger sister helping the older is interesting, it's an unusual play on the dynamic of siblings. I don't know if I'd take style advice from my younger sister to be honest...  sorry sis. 

Anyways  I love love love the muted colors of the photo, it draws your focus to their faces. 

And those faces sure are beautiful!
