September Essentials

Happy last day of September, lovelies! With TIFF, fashion weeks and more, it's no wonder the month flew by so quickly.

Here are a few of my essential items that got me through September:

What I Wore: Artbound's The pARTy 2013

Last week, I got to attend a super cool fundraiser by Artbound in support of Free the Children. The theme? Beverly Hills 90210.

Shoesday Tuesday: Oxblood

My absolute favourite colour for falls is oxblood/maroon/burgundy/bordeaux/anything that is a deep, rich, red hue. From my lipstick to my nail colour to my scarves to my shoes, I can't get enough of this colour which I have deemed perfect for the season.

So, this week's Shoesday Tuesday is dedicated to everything oxblood.

Here are the oxblood-coloured shoes I'm currently coveting:

Five blogger essentials are: a camera, a photographer boyfriend, an inner "internet-geek" side, a "Homies" tee, and no shame when taking selfies in public.

Favourite Nail Looks at NYFW SS14

I'm seriously obsessed with this matte nail look as seen at Costello Tagliapietra's spring 2014 show at New York Fashion Week. The midnight blue colour is a nice alternative to basic black, and a matte top coat just seems to make any nail polish look that much cooler (seriously...my love affair for matte polish has been going on for quite some time now...)

Check out my post on styleswept.ca for the rest of my favourite nail looks from NYFW (and how to get the look!)

What I Wore: Borrowed From The Boys

Fashion Crush: Aila Wang

What I would have worn to NYFW

So there's this thing going on right now which you may or may not have heard of called NYFW...

And truth be told I would much rather be in New York checking out the shows, creeping on street style stars and Instagramming/tweeting every moment, but alas, work comes first and I am still here in Toronto.

As I was clicking through street style galleries obsessively one evening, I began to dream up the outfits I would have worn had I been in New York right now.

Here's what I came up with:

Fashion Fix: Time for fall!

Weekend beauty tip: The magic of tea tree oil

It's that time of year again, lovelies! September is here a.k.a. the January of the fashion world.

And with TIFF, NYFW and other amazing/awesome/uber-cool events and parties to go to and things to do, things are getting prettyyyy hectic.
