Vacation

Heading to New York. More to come afterwards.

Immortalized in lipstick

As much as I dislike both of them, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have a place in my heart after being sculpted by Willard Wigan out of lipstick for the Breast Cancer Campaign. The tiny sculptures are being auctioned off on Ebay, so if you have mad dough and want to contribute to a cause that is near and dear to mine, and many others' hearts, please bid! Auction ends February 19th! Click here to bid.

Wigan's site is temporarily down, but his micro sculptures are pretty amazing. Check him out. 

If I were a boy.

Wear me on your heart.

After finding myself in the mood this morning only to look at men's and women's accessories, I have come to the conclusion that the ultimate status symbol is the brooch.

Really, is there anything else?

Tiffany and Co

Jean Sclumberger Heart Clip 

$6,250

Birks

Orbit Collection Emerald Brooch

$1,650

House of Holland.

I mean, not every collection can be perfect, but House of Holland is pretty close. Save for some of the men's styling, I can definitely say that I am loving the RTW line this spring. 

I've always been weary of mixing prints even though I know it's definitely something to do, and I have once or twice, but HoH goes right for it!

Definitely love the jumper!

Okay... frills? On men? Maybe. But not today my friends not today. 

Am I wrong?

I am kind of in love. Or is is lust? You tell me.

After a brief hiatus due to some unfortunate events, I have returned to Toronto and have found some new interesting things. 

While I am a dedicated buyer from TheUrbanCollection.com (Vintage Cole Haan loafers and a Coach bucket purse being the most recent buys) and NastyGal Vintage I have found a new site to love. Archive Vintage is definitely different in some respects, selling primarily designer vintage from YSL to Halston to Versace Couture, but it still has the same amazing prices and selection!

Take a look at some of my favourites:

Gucci Ashtray - $325 (Smoke in style!)

Chanel 1980's - $425 (I mean, if you're going to wear basic, wear proper basics)

1950's Cocktail Dress - $198

Chloe - $325

Ungaro - $250
