Jewelry Obsessed

Those who know me, know I have a slight jewelry obsession! These are my latest must haves! Iwona Ludyga "Tiny Skully Bracelet" $245 & "Tiny Skully Ring" $190, 14k gold with white or black diamond eyes. I love that they are such dainty and feminine pieces with a bit of an edge. Will make them mine soon! 

I am also still lusting over the YSL Arty Ring. Unfortunately, I cannot find them in Canada anywhere to buy or try on so I know my size. So I might have to just suck it up and order online. I just can't seem to decide on a colour! I am debating between the white with amber flecks and the pink, both $250. 

Fall/Winter Wedge

I've been searching for the perfect wedge for fall/winter. I usually prefer a leather shoe for winter because it cleans well and is more durable, but when I saw these I fell in love! I really like the combination of leather & suede--it gives it a little something extra. I'm usually not a fan of the hidden wedge, but I just love everything about this shoe!

Can't Wait to Try

So I've been hearing about this product by Sally Hansen called "Salon Effects." It pretty much is a version of Minx, same idea except obviously cheaper (price wise). It is essentially a nail sticker that you put on to your nail, file off the excess and claims to stay for up to 10 days with no chipping! I love well manicured nails and I have tried Minx and regularly do Shellac so when I saw this I was pretty excited. It is available in a bunch of different colours and patterns and is apparently pretty easy to put on. I'm definitely going to go try this out! I am really loving the cheetah, zebra and lace print! Can't wait!

Hmmm...

Saw this dress quickly in H&M the other day... it really caught my eye. It retails for $69.95 it is in a dusty rose colour (looks a bit different in the pictures). Anyways I thought it was a pretty good price considering it was a 'gown' type dress. Can't stop thinking about it so I am going to go try it on this week and see how it looks! Just wanted to share...

Beauty Products

Here are some beauty products that I use pretty much daily for just my simple everyday makeup for work or during the day. Pretty simple nothing too fancy but I feel like these products work for me! Can't really live without them. I am still on the hunt for a great foundation and concealer. I have heard a lot of good things about Chanel foundations so I am going to check them out. I have NARS Sheer Glow right now but I am not really loving it (that's why I didn't include it).

New Obsession

I know I just did a post on bright colourful handbags... but I kind of just came across this brand "Cambridge Satchel Company" and had to share. They are a company out of Great Britain that produce genuine leather satchels. I'm kind of surprised I just discovered them now, especially since they are really popular amongst celebrities and have been featured in many magazines from Vogue to Elle. They came out with a line of Fluorescent Satchels, right on trend for Spring. They are available to order from 11", 13", 14" and 15" and range from £98-£117. Cool thing about these bags is that you can personalize them by embossing pretty much anything you want for about £5 a letter. I love the retro style of these bags, they are a great shape, and I love handbags with a long strap to wear cross body!

Rumor Mill

Dior won't announce John Galliano's replacement until the fall! Apparently it is  being said that the front runner is still Givenchy's Riccardo Tisci. The company is holding off naming Galliano's replacement because a) he has not been formally fired YET b) LVMH does not want any announcement on the future of the brand to overshadow this season. 

I guess we will have to all wait in anticipation!!

Do you believe the rumors that John Galliano's downfall was partially set-up? Hmm....

H&M Summer Collection Preview

Here is just a little preview from the new summer collection H&M will be releasing in April sometime. As usual, I pretty much love everything (except the jean overalls I will not be wearing that!). I love the bright colours, it's great for summer, right on point for the whole colour blocking trend. Can't wait to see them in store and try some stuff on!
