Not because the heat gets to my brain but because I usually want to wear as little as possible and my personal style is usually achieve by layering, accessorizing and matching various garments. Despite this, I have found the perfect hot summer day outfit that is light and cute. This simple onesie (also known as a romper) can be dressed up with gladiator sandles and a leather jacket to make a more complete outfit OR you can wear it as is with a pair of sunglasses, sandles and maybe a summer hat and you are ready to rock and roll. This adorable piece can be found at American Apparel.</span></span></span><br /><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51);"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-family:arial;">Keepin' it cool in the summer heat... xx</span></span></span><br /></div>cxhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14627468370758065655noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8136554301381209936.post-64540969608607062712009-07-05T08:30:00.000-07:002009-07-05T08:46:35.140-07:00Fashion District<span style="text-decoration: underline;"><br /><br /></span><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-HbqmgPU6_k/SlDKIDs3kVI/AAAAAAAAAKo/5him7G9rFAE/s1600-h/FD.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-HbqmgPU6_k/SlDKIDs3kVI/AAAAAAAAAKo/5him7G9rFAE/s320/FD.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5355002196724781394" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_-HbqmgPU6_k/SlDKH7QVmOI/AAAAAAAAAKg/GGOhtcLbHpI/s1600-h/Fraas.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 214px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_-HbqmgPU6_k/SlDKH7QVmOI/AAAAAAAAAKg/GGOhtcLbHpI/s320/Fraas.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5355002194457630946" border="0" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: justify;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_-HbqmgPU6_k/SlDKnB38mbI/AAAAAAAAAKw/ml5ApRSG7Fc/s1600-h/VF.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 247px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_-HbqmgPU6_k/SlDKnB38mbI/AAAAAAAAAKw/ml5ApRSG7Fc/s320/VF.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5355002728810322354" border="0" /></a><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51);"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-family:arial;">Friday I spent the day in Toronto's very own Fashion DIstrict.

While it was a rainy and gloomy afternoon I still ventured downtown with my friends...the sky ended up clearing and it turned into a nice day. In addition to taking in all of the excitement of the parade floats and the pride culture itself, I was busy scoping the scene for the fashion trendsetters. One of the many reasons why I love fashion is because of the ability to project an image and express whatever the individual wearer wants throuh their clothes (or lack of) and accessories. Some of these outfits are mainstream while others are sub-culture specific. Regardless of which group you belong to there are fashions for everyone!!<br /></span></span></span>cxhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14627468370758065655noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8136554301381209936.post-53206666419609121022009-06-22T11:31:00.001-07:002009-06-22T11:39:52.720-07:00Over Size<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_-HbqmgPU6_k/Sj_Pyc28K5I/AAAAAAAAAIY/kRydYcGwSyg/s1600-h/IMG_1257.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 266px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_-HbqmgPU6_k/Sj_Pyc28K5I/AAAAAAAAAIY/kRydYcGwSyg/s320/IMG_1257.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5350223347986475922" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_-HbqmgPU6_k/Sj_Px-8XJOI/AAAAAAAAAIQ/1-vBsZGRWio/s1600-h/IMG_1256.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 179px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_-HbqmgPU6_k/Sj_Px-8XJOI/AAAAAAAAAIQ/1-vBsZGRWio/s320/IMG_1256.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5350223339956151522" border="0" /></a><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51);"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-family:arial;">This over-sized beach bag is a great accessorizor to any cute summer ensemble.

In addition to the blahhh-ness of this outfit it was 32 degrees in Toronto and I was swealtering. My mom asked why I didn't wear something a little bit more summer-y and I replied: "I don't know how to look professional and dress for summer weather at the same time".... She suggested that I try a full coverage dress (one that is not too short nor too tight) with some shoes that provide height and elegance. She then offered me a very stylish, cute and trendy hat that would set me apart from the rest. This outfit solved my problems: I was comfortable, a lot cooler in temperature and looking the way I like to present myself. The outfit was also well taken at my meeting... the head honcho said "I like your hat" and "boy, you look adorable". Looking professional doesn't always have to be boring...just be sure you know the audience that you are dressing for! Happy wardrobing.</span></span></span><br /></div>cxhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14627468370758065655noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8136554301381209936.post-37534531403633491062009-06-17T07:41:00.000-07:002009-06-22T11:40:34.031-07:00I See Round<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_-HbqmgPU6_k/SjkCd1jZJJI/AAAAAAAAAHw/IWFozZqkLsY/s1600-h/JL.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 223px; height: 223px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_-HbqmgPU6_k/SjkCd1jZJJI/AAAAAAAAAHw/IWFozZqkLsY/s320/JL.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5348308744094164114" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_-HbqmgPU6_k/SjkCd-ecosI/AAAAAAAAAHo/uLPG64a0hIc/s1600-h/MK+O.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 158px; height: 250px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_-HbqmgPU6_k/SjkCd-ecosI/AAAAAAAAAHo/uLPG64a0hIc/s320/MK+O.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5348308746489340610" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-HbqmgPU6_k/SjkCCX79dDI/AAAAAAAAAHg/1aTn_i-kLhQ/s1600-h/IMG_1242.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 114px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-HbqmgPU6_k/SjkCCX79dDI/AAAAAAAAAHg/1aTn_i-kLhQ/s320/IMG_1242.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5348308272287675442" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-HbqmgPU6_k/SjkCB7iDoZI/AAAAAAAAAHQ/d6n4Q5VGL50/s1600-h/IMG_1238.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 146px; height: 320px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-HbqmgPU6_k/SjkCB7iDoZI/AAAAAAAAAHQ/d6n4Q5VGL50/s320/IMG_1238.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5348308264662835602" border="0" /></a><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51);"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-family:arial;">This sunglass trend has been noted by other fashionistas and bloggers a little bit earlier in the season, however, I came across a fabulous pair for super cheap. These John Lennon inspired and later MK Olsen adapted, round lens spectacles are chic, retro and add a little bit of attitude to any summer get-up. For all you Torontonian's I strong suggest taking a tour of downtown's Kensington Market because I found these incredible glasses at the army surplus store.

One rainy day earlier this week, my girlfriend Amanda and I took some scissors to an old ankle length leather skirt. Once the fit of the skirt was perfect, my creative and imaginative friend suggested that we make a quick stop into Fabricland (what a fabulous place filled with wonderful stuff!!) We purchased some texturized, gold, studded buttons that we used as detailing across the waistline of the skirt. Later we added two strand of chains for an added punkish, hipster look. Who says you need Parsons or some other elite fashion school to have fun with your clothes. This skirt costed a total of $7.50 to make and I got to spend quality time with my friend, what's better than that.</span></span></span><br /></div>cxhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14627468370758065655noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8136554301381209936.post-46516740082090372342009-06-07T09:51:00.001-07:002009-06-07T09:54:26.450-07:00Saturday Night Fever<div style="text-align: justify;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_-HbqmgPU6_k/SivwNwAEMCI/AAAAAAAAAFI/FRDKTXaitnY/s1600-h/Cool.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 160px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_-HbqmgPU6_k/SivwNwAEMCI/AAAAAAAAAFI/FRDKTXaitnY/s320/Cool.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5344629501819367458" border="0" /></a><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51);"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-family: arial;">I just thought I would share this pic with all of you.

I have been passionate about fashion for quite some time now and I look forward to sharing my ideas, inspiration, images and revealing my fashion secrets to you. </span></span></strong><br /><strong><span style="color:#333333;"></span></strong><br /><strong><span style="color:#333333;">To end off my first post I would like to share one of my favourite quotes:</span></strong><br /><div align="left"><strong><span style="color:#333333;"><em>"In matters of style, swim with the current; in matters of principle, stand like a rock."</em> ~ Thomas Jefferson</span></strong></div><div align="center"><strong><span style="color:#333333;"></span></strong></div><div align="left"><strong><span style="color:#333333;">I think this quote does a good job exposing a little bit about me and my style. Regarding me as a person, I am very principled and I stand firm by my values and beliefs, however, when it comes to fashion and my personal style I do whatever feels right - I let the current carry me along; I experiment, I take risks and ultimately I have fun with clothing, shoes and accessories. I hope you enjoy the posts that are to come and I look forward to hearing from all of you. Keep checkin' back!</span></strong></div>cxhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14627468370758065655noreply@blogger.com0
