Celeb Style Steal – Sofia Vergara Rich and Skinny Cargos

Olive cargo skinny jeans: Rich and Skinny
Sheer blouse: RW&Co, Shoes: Nine West, Bag: Via Spiga

I love how these Rich and Skinny cargos feel velvety and are super stretchy, as if I were wearing leggings. However, unlike leggings, these olive skinnies have flap pockets on the back, so they look great when worn with a shorter top, like the one I have on.

Cargo skinnies have a huge celebrity following this season:
Leighton Meester, Jessical Alba, Vanessa Hudgens, Rachel Bilson, Rihanna, Khloe Kardashian

Celebrity Style Steal – Jessica Alba Dr. Martens

These Cherry Red Dr. Martens are a part of their 50th year anniversary collection.

I was lucky to get mine at 50% off at Neon store closing sale on Queen St. yesterday. I literally bought them last minute, before they closed their doors for good. Well, at least for a few weeks, until they renovate and open up an official Doc Martens shop!

The green cargo pants are from H&M, $39.95! Top: Zara. Bag: Winners.

Celebrity Style Steal – Whitney Port

I love Whitney‘s style so much, I decided to copy yet another one of her looks from The City:
Whit hailing a cab in NYC, and me really bad at pretending to be hailing a cab in Toronto  :)

Olive green military jacket: Gap, now on sale for $33
T-shirt: Gap
Black leggings: Zara
Ballet flats: BLOCH luxury ballet flats
(Whitney’s wearing slate-gray & black, mine are black & white)

my BLOCH ballet flats in their pretty box

I love my new patent leather BLOCH ballet flats – they’re super comfy, and don’t lose their shape while you’re wearing them. Yes, the packaging is really cute, and the shoes are truly luxurious — in both the way they look and feel.
Available at: Holt Renfrew, Heel Boy, Social Butterfly, Feet First.

Sex and the City 2 Dresses

As you all know, Sex and the City 2 is coming out this weekend! Expect your nearby theatre to turn into a runway :) I’m looking forward to capturing some amazing street style shots.

I still haven’t decided what I’ll be wearing. So I went to The Bay this morning and tried on two of the Halston Heritage dresses which are actually featured in the movie.

I thought the blue one was really cute, but a bit over my student budget…

Halston Heritage SATC deep v white cocktail dress - $395

deep v white cocktail dress - $395

halston heritage SATC electric blue pleated cocktail dress - $525

electric blue pleated cocktail dress - $525

And here’s what the stars wore at the premiere:SATC_2_premiere

My New Fluevog Oxford Shoes

There hasn’t been a menswear style that I wasn’t happy to adopt. From boyfriend blazers and vests, to jeans, watches and grandpa sweaters, I’ve got ‘em all. It was just a matter of time before I jumped on the Oxfords (brogues, wingtips…) bandwagon.

Jessica Alba, Emma Watson, Olivia Palermo,  Taylor Swift, Whitney Port

I bought my Oxfords from John Fluevog on Queen West.
(style: Connoisseurs Medici, Tan & Beige. Yup, men’s!)

I can tell you I got a lot of stares while wearing these yesterday.
One girl said she liked them, so I’ll just hope that’s what others were thinking as well :)

They definitely fall into my brave purchases category. I’m still trying to figure out other ways to wear them except with skinny jeans. Skirt is a def no-no, not digging Emma Watson’s look above.

green military jacket: RW & Co
peach t-shirt: Club Monaco
floral print scarf: Winners
leather belt: Tristan
skinny jeans: True Religion, Holt Renfrew
leather bag: Via Spiga, Winners
aviators: Ray-Ban
wingtips: John Fluevog

Let me know what you think, would you wear classic wingtip-shoes?

tomorrow: Street Style!
