OMG Moment for Fall 2010


It has been torching 40c degree out here in Toronto, but I can't help but start to think about my fall Wardrobe.

I was browsing thru Style.com over the weekend, I got to say my favorite collection for Fall 2010 is Miu Miu.    You must think that my opinion is little biased as I am a big fan of the brand.  But seriously, look at the collection!

Embroidered Lace, Skinny Bow ties and Anemone Appliqué create a delicate & soft contrast to sturdy heavy felt wool fabrication.  The silhouettes are easy to wear and will look great on most body shapes.  The skinny trousers will make your leg look like they will never end.

An unexpected colour palette of Black with tangerine, gold, purple & lavender is so different rest of Fall 2010 collection.  I seriously need to add some Shocking tangerine for my fall wardrobe!

Seriously Miss Prada, you are killing me softly with your clothes.

Check out MiuMiu.com for runway video!  

P.S. the sound track of runway is AMAZING - seriously - Culture club? Boy George? AMAZING!

Did I buy Chloë Sevigny's shoes?

I am a BIG eBay fan - to buy & to sell.

I recently bought this pair of beauties off an ebay store which is run by Hilary Rosenman, a NYC jewlery designer.  She sells new & used items from her personal collection, Charlotte Ronsons & an annoymous celebrity.

So.. this pair of shoes belonged to an anonymous celebrity, who used to be a model & is now an actress.

I didn't come to think too much of it... until I rec'd the package with a note card from Miu Miu attentioned to "Chloe".

seriously... am I obsessive? or did these shoes actually belong to Chloë Sevigny? She modeled for Miu Miu Spring 1996 collection.... and she wears Sz 38, which is the size of shoes I purchased?

What do you guys think? Chloë? or am I crazy?

NYC Haul

Being only an hour plane ride away, NYC is my number one choice for a quick getaway.  What’s not to love about NYC? Weather is always nicer, food is always better (more on that later), and the shopping is gazillions time better (and cheaper)!

If you ask me, the best part about New York is to visit my dear cousin, Kathy.   She is my fashion savy guide to the big apple.  She always knows where is the best to shop, eat & play.

If you look into my cloest, it is mostly dark colours.  But for some kind of reason, I was drawn to Neon/Brights on this trip?
Tote: Marc by Marc Jacobs Special items, Dress: J-crew, Skirt: INC @ Macy’s

If you do not know about Marc by Marc special items, then  HAVE to run there on your next NYC trip.  Marc has created these special items at DIRT cheap prices.  The Hipsters sale associates at the store are all hand-picked by Marc himself!
Chain Tote & Coin Purse: Marc by Marc Jacobs Special items

Of course I saved the best for last!  I don’t think I need to explain
Shoes: Miu Miu, Headband: J-crew

Stay tune for the good eats in NYC.

Miu Meow

That's shoe heaven right????

That picture is from the Miu Miu spring 2010 Collection.  For those, who are around me, must know by now... I am OBSESSED!

I am a crazy Miu Miu lover since... FOREVER... this brand captures everything that I love: fresh, unique & feminine.  They also have the BEST bags & shoes!

So when the models strolled down the Spring 2010 runway with Cats, Daisy, Sparrows and nude lady prints, I instantly fell in love.  As if Miuucia Prada knew exactly what my dream wardrobe would be! Seriously, if I could only wear one collection of clothing in my life, this would be IT!

So what is better to combine my love of the collection & my love of baking? I have recently taken up on the challenge to perfect my sugar cookie decorating skills… Here is what I whipped up over the weekend!

Special thanks to Bridget at Bake at 350 & University of Cookies for all the tips & help!
