Summer Skirts Pt. 1: The Kane

Well hello there beautiful galaxy print Christopher Kane skirt, I love you. I'm sorry you are so crinkled, apparently this is what happens when I refuse to take you off for two days straight. But who could blame me for not wanting to take you off when I receive a constant flow of skirt-envy and compliments from passersby when I wear you? Thank you for taking my wardrobe to the next level, please never leave me or get ruined.

ps. If you're a London-based reader who would love to get their hands on a bit of Kane too, then don't miss out on the sample sale on June 9th & 10th - click HERE for more info. x

Cupcakes Cider & Wah Nails - Oh My!



Yes it's true, all of the above were present a the Lazy Oaf collection launch party on Thursday night.

What's Lazy Oaf you say? Well it's a super cute brand that specializes in POP graphic tees and jewellery. Not only that, but in their shop, which is located just off of Carnaby Street, they also sell everything from sunglasses to funny cards for your friends. Their T-shirts average at about £30, while most jewellery is only £14 - at those prices, how can you deny such fun homegrown goods?

Click HERE to check out their new spring collection. My favourite pieces include the doggy print tee and watermelon and Americana crop tops - perfect for summah!

Popping In To The EMU Pop Up Shop


A couple of weeks ago, EMU held an evening for London bloggers at their pop up shop on Lamb's Conduit Street. After Wolf & Badger's 1st bday party, Holly and I decided to pop on over and pay them a visit to see what they're up to. What we found was a cozy little shop (cabin-like, almost) filled not only with their so-comfy-it-should-be-illegal booties, but a collection of super soft knits, basics and leather jackets. I for one was not familiar with their clothing, but would be more than happy to layer up in their high-quality basics any day.

Now, it must be said that I have never owned or purchased a pair of EMU or Ugg boots in my life. Well, okay, I do have one pair of Uggs but they're an old pair of my BFF's sister that she didn't wear anymore. It would be a lie to say I didn't enjoy wearing those things around my house in the winter, on ski trips, or on days when a hangover makes tying up my converse too difficult to manage. Oh the joys of outdoor slipper boots!

I wear heels way too often, and for way too long, to deny such comfort during my 'fashion down time.' I'm kind of in love with my new biker-style low cut black EMU booties - as some of you may know, I am returning to Canada soon and I'm sorry but those boots will be KEY when it comes to braving -20 weather. Hunny, you try walking through five feet of snow in stilettos at 8am- it ain't happening! Exciting advances in EMU technology include water resistant sheepskin (no more soggy, salty, sludgy boots!), a molded cup heel and super-duper strong sole (no more weird lopsidedness!) - hooray!

The lovely Frankie of Cube PR took a snapshot of us at the event - in which I look like I've only got one foot and Holly had to hold me up while I took a nap. Photoshopping a sleeping mask over my half-closed eyes makes posting this photo surprisingly less embarrassing. Below, my new boots - come on, you know you want them too!

See If You Can Spot Me...



At the launch of Forever 21 in the UK last night! Here's a hint: first row, on the left. Always a fan of Forever 21 back home, I'm sure it will sit well amongst the rest of the British highstreet shops. Must admit I was highly impressed with the PRs choice of venue (it was AMAZING!) and happily indulged in a glass (or few) of champers. Celebs in attendance included: Amber Le Bon (the face of Forever 21 UK), model Ben Grimes and that dude from that show Gavin & Stacey.

Crazy Sexy Cool

Once the Felder Felder sisters took their bow and walked off stage yesterday afternoon, the room went dark. As the audience's anticipation grew, suddenly music came on and a black and white image of a nude model flashed on screen. Temperatures were raised as the sexy Rankin film was played before designer Hannah Marshall sent her monochromatic models down the runway. HOT.
