Fashion Week 2012 took off last week in the big apple. The hair, the makeup, the accessories, the celebs, the designers but most of all the fabulous collections! Among many talented designers, Herve Leger stood out, he always nails it for me. With its slimming bandage materials, to bold embellishments, and bondage/rocker look-L-O-V-I-N-G the collection!

This particular outfit is one of my favorites. Not only is it ultra comfortable but it gives you that effortless edge with a tad of sexiness. I got this dress on my lovely trip to Italy in a super hip flee market and it only cost me 10 Euros! Yup a real steal!
The different lengths such as the one in this dress are great for day and night, give the illusion of a longer leg and they are so easy to wear. Love it:)
Easy Breezy and no ladies I am not referring to Cover Girl, I am talking about my outfit of the day. Easy and breezy is the perfect way to describe my Ootd, so comfortable yet so chic and so easy to put together. The layered skirt is from Zara, and it is definitely one of my favorite summer pieces. It’s a show stopper, literally! While roaming the streets of Montreal with my “beau” I could not walk 2 blocks without being asked “Omg love your skirt, where’s it from?”. It’s casual laid back look gives you instant style without that “trying so hard” effect. Paring this flowy skit with strappy sandals (the ones above are from BCBGeneration) add to the daytime look.
A bold necklace brings the outfit together and adds some definition, the one I am wearing is from Aldo. My Purse is by Michael Kors and my hat was stolen from my bf, from H&M 🙂

We all have our beauty obsessions, whether it be a nail lacquer, lip gloss, powder, mascara etc. A girl can never have too many beauty items. My long time favourite cosmetic brand is hands down Nars by Francois Nars. For years now I’ve been using the infamous Laguna bronzing powder which has won several awards as best beauty buys. The powder includes rich minerals which creates a perfect golden shimmer, enhances tanned skin and even fills in pores for smoother, more even looking skin. Another must have is The Orgasm collection, it’s a subtle peachy pink with a golden shimmer and it looks great on any skin complexion. I recommend the Multiple- it’s a multi-purpose stick for eyes, cheeks, lips and body. Its creamy texture allows for easy and flawless application. What is great about this shimmer is that it instantly highlights all your best features so effortlessly. Great for cheekbones and lower brow area.
The list goes on and on, Nars has so many exciting and beautiful products to choose from. I say start with the essentials such as a blush or powder and decide which colour palette is fit for you. Nars also has some incredible eyeshadows, nail lacquers and makeup tools.
Have Fun
XOXO

Louis Vuitton launched the 2013 Resort Collection a few weeks ago and the results are fashionably brilliant! Unlike most minis, skimpy pieces and other skin baring clothes to walk the runway, Julie De Libran took the classy approach. Right under the direction of Marc Jacobs, she explains; “The idea for the collection was that it was so incredibly hot, but that the women were still well-dressed”.
There was a fabulous effortlessness in her laid-back new proportions, the tunics, the relaxed camp shirts, and drop-waist dresses, bringing high-concept style and offhand cool all together in the same look.
