{Barefoot Contessa soy candle (c/o)}
{I’ve been searching for some sort of pen and pencil holder lately, and this packaging for the Barefoot Contessa candle works perfectly! (And by works, I mean matches, aesthetics tend to trump functionality at this haus)}
{New make up brushes c/o Joe Fresh – I’m particularly delighted with the lipstick brush, as I accidently smushed a good portion of my Chantecaille lipstick into the cap. Don’t you just hate that?? Especially when it’s about $15 worth of lipstick smushed into the cap…}
{My fascination with nutcrackers grows. My Christmas decorating is done in two ways: 1) with nutcrackers and 2) with all things winter wonderland ie: white, crystal or frosted}
{A miniature moose head for the wall, currently sitting on a side table, from Front & Co, home of some of the best window displays in town!}
{Dior heart-shaped bowl (a crystal version here) with mini candy canes and my new favorite accessory: Social Experiment ring (c/o)}
{Pink fur earmuffs from Holt Renfrew – another fabulous pair here - lucite hook rack from Urban Barn}
{A delicious vaseline based lip balm by Perfumeria Gal, c/o Barefoot Contessa, hand towel from HomeSense}
{Making plans – a moment before heading out to last night’s London Drugs Revlon & Almay event at Sugar Studios – picture tweeted here! They sent a white stretch limo to pick us up… I could get used to that! Wearing: JNBY sweater dress (c/o), La Senza stockings, Zara boots}
Oh, and have a look at this: APT with LSD featuring Aerin Lauder – hello glamorous.
And one more thing that makes me happeee happy: a card, that along with five others, is on its way to San Francisco to the home of a favourite fashion blogger… (Get yours here)
{ Wearing: Vintage blouse from Front & Company, Zara pants & shoes, vintage Ingledews snakeskin bag, bracelets: H&M, New Look (London), Michael Kors watch, Armani sunnies }
As I type this I am savoring a brick of lemon tart – it’s literally enormous, I shall be sitting here on the Thierrypatio for quite some time. Oh, the sweet afternoons of summer.
Very much looking forward to the Standing Armed show tonight – especially seeing the bloggers out in full force! See you tonight! I’ll be live posting pictures from the show (the clothes! The Who’s Whos in attendance & the bloggers! Oh my!), on my Facebook page this evening!
Wearing: Vintage fur vest from Mum’s collection, Grey hoody taken from a boy, Sirens black studded tank, Zara bleached jeans, Michael Kors leather boots, Silver multi-chain necklace from Aldo and big big leather bag by Cole Haan. Smile by me.
This morning I woke up wishing I owned a chic pair of cashmere sweatpants that could be worn with heels. I wanted fierce comfort, but an over-sized boy hoody and comfy jeans did just fine! This was a perfect outfit for me today, I felt good in it from 10:30 am when I left my apartment til 6:30 pm when I finally got home.
You may have noticed that lately I have taken to wearing hardly any make up, or none at all. I am having an I-hate-eyeliner moment right now, and I’m not into gloss with fur, so minimalism is my new thing. Til next week anyways. : )
Today I took two busses and one sky train to Main St. to visit my friend Jennine Banks. Jennine has the most AMAZING apartment, as I showed you earlier in December, and can also cook up one yummy omelet. Today she made us green apple-caramelized onion-goat cheese omelets with fresh brewed coffee imported from Seattle. I brought the dessert: a fresh croissant and blueberry muffin. Mmmm. Catching up with friends is such a lovely day to spend the day.
Afterwards I ventured further up Main St. to Front and Co. where I scored some incredible vintage finds!!! = A bag of birthday presents for myself! My finds: 1-white rabbit fur vest with sheepskin collar, (PETA please do not hate on me. It’s all vintage, which in my opinion makes it better than buying new). 2-very fitted leather pants!! Which makes them borderline leggings, but styled like jeans, and without that awkward frontal area that leggings create. Which is why I hated leggings to begin with. Again people, leggings must be accompanied by a tunic or long sweater of some sort. Please adhere to this. 3-a loose knit black sweater that has thing amazing lace-up detail up the sides of the sweater that continues down the arms on the inside, so the lacing holds the sweater together. Très chic. Pictures coming soon, I can’t decide whether or not I will save these delicious items for my actual birthday, WHICH IS ON FRIDAY, FYI. Yayyy!! I shall be 22 years old. I may even do a retrospective post on my year being 21, after all, it was a huge year for me; StyleStruck came to be!
Ta-ta for now lovely people! And thank you very much for visiting my blog, you make me very happy!
Xoxo
