Today is Sunday, November 22, 2009
After work you have so many thoughts on your mind but when it gets warmer, you only think about one thing - drinks! I love the fact you're more inclined to go all over the city just to get a great drink. Whether you're going to have one or a few, you still want to have a fun experience! One of my favorite places that's not only cozy but has an inventive menu is Cibar! I love that although this is a girly bar with its pink walls, you definitely see lots of people popping in and out! Take some time to check this out and I am in LOVE with their massive martini list!
Fashion Week started yesterday and with today being Valentine's Day - it's all about the love! Although I love the official collection of designers that show at the tents, I am also a fan of those that are offsite or are apart of additional presentations. As many of you are aware, many designers pulled out of the tents in an effort to have a smaller affair. I love that Halston decided to do an interesting interpretation of the runway showing the full movement of his clothes. I definitely think that innovation is going to be what sets designers apart this season and into the next ones. Enjoy the video and the journey of the model as she passes various designs from his collection.
I remember when I first joined Ideeli. It was a site where you knew that you could get access to a small quantity of items at a fraction of the price. All the goodies that you saw in the magazine were available here but in limited quantities and at set times. In addition, you could be a free member and have access while also being a paid member to get an advanced opportunity to score these coveted pieces! But like all things, a good idea starts and takes shape in other ways. Ideeli not only has items but giveaways as well and they also help you build your style. See a bag that you love, it may not be available yet or sold out but you can see where Barney's may have other items like this or go back to the brands site and purchase items from there. In addition, you can see what celebs love the brand as well. I also love that you can see what is currently offered versus what will be available soon! Ideeli loves Kitten Lounge and I love you so I am giving you a link that will allow you to gain access to these great finds! Just enter: fashionmaven and let the fun begin!
If you look to the left, you'll see Lindsay Lohan sporting a series of super cute scarves. These are no ordinary scarves but are Love Quote Scarves which are making an appearance everywhere and are known for having inspirational quotes and come in a variety of colors. I am such a fan of scarves that are like this and reall love the one that is in Mocha that Lindsay is wearing towards the bottom of the page! I love that you can wear it with something simple and instantly you have taken your outfit to a whole other level without much effort! This scarf is available in a variety of super cute boutiques online but there is one that I have become recently acquainted with - Singer 22, that is definitely a great place to pick up this and other great finds. They are known for bringing the best items that are worn by today's hottest celebrity and in case you're wondering, they include great pics like this one to show that this is something that they are currently wearing. Take some time to not only pick up this scarf but to get acquainted with Singer 22 as well!
When I think about Fashion Week - I love that it continues no matter where you are! Today, we highlight in this Trendy Thursday segment, Joeffer Caoc's Toronto Fashion Week Show. Initially, I came across this fab designer while checking out today's Coutorture recap of this portion of the runway Fashion Week. For the purpose of this post, I wanted to introduce a designer that was new to me and that I definitely wanted to let you guys know about. I love this outfit I think that in terms of the top - I love that it is a one shoulder and has a bit of that Grecian vibe which is very femme and exotic. I also love that it is paired with a pair of cuffed shorts which is so South Beach! I think this is a nice addition to the concept of THINK CITRUS! Check out more of Joeffer Caoc on his site and see the amazing pieces from his collection.
Ok I have to admit, I get sucked into reality shows which is why I do try to avoid them but it gets to be too much and I either see it every time it airs OR I catch it on a marathon. Case in point, the title of this post comes from one of those shows. TV aside, Maptote makes the cutest tote and hobo bags that let you rep your city! Today I want to give love to the city of Brotherly Love. I love that not only does it map the city but it has images that we all think of when we think of this super cute city. I love the LOVE image, Rocky's famous stance and more. This hobo is perfect and if you think that you need something smaller get it in black or taupe as a tote. If you're an LA, Montreal or Paris girl there is a bag for you. This is definitely something that will be great to wear during the Spring and the Summer and of course you will be quite the conversation piece no matter where you're going. Check out Maptote to see what they have available and with a price at $20 - this is definitely something to make the Lovefest last longer!
For weeks I had heard people talking about Eat, Pray, Love by Elizabeth Gilbert - wherever you go, if someone is reading something - this book is bound to pop up. So as I headed out for vacation, I picked this book up. Once I was above 10,000 feet, I pulled out this book and the woman next to me asked if I knew anything about it. I explained what little I knew since I hadn't really read it yet and she let me know that she didn't even finish it and that it was a bit slow. Later in the week at the pool, another woman said the same thing!
Last night I finally got to India (this is someone who can read a book in a day if it's truly engaging) and I have to say that there are moments of struggle here but I am hoping that I can get past this and find amazing gems in this story! I do like it but it is definitely a challenge at times. So today, I will continue on with this book - has anyone finished it that definitely loved it? No spoilers please!
We love hearing from you! Suggestions, ideas and thoughts are always welcome.
Please send all food related questions to Paul, spa and wellness items to Keren and all other queries to Kimmie.
