7. COMME DES GARCONS FALL 2009 TOE SHOES



These have been at the top of my wishlist for who knows how long now. Fall 2009 is one of my favorite collections from Rei; the blanket coats, the trompe l'oeil, the cotton candy hair, the plaid, the beige organza/tulle. I would wear everything in a heartbeat. Just so so so coool.

TOPSHOP POP-UP SHOP IN MONTREAL!

This Wednesday, December 22nd, TOPSHOP opens a pop-up shop at the SSENSE store in the old port. Click Here to read all about it.
This is TOPSHOP's first foray into the Montreal market, this is definitely a market test to see if there is a demand here in Montreal.That's why we have to show up in big numbers Wednsday in order for them to see that WE NEED A TOPSHOP IN MONTREAL. Then I could work there, duh.

Last year, they did the same thing in Toronto, Steph and I did a whole pilgrimage, specifically with the opening in mind. Thank god this time we don't have to go too far.

Alright so don't forget to come out this WEDNESDAY! Excellent last minute Christmas Gifts!

EIGHT DAYS OF CHRISTMAS : DAY FIVE

5. PROENZA TOGGLE SWING COAT


from LA GARCONNE

MONTREAL IS FREEZING! Therefore I am freezing. I've been struggling to find a good looking coat that will actually keep me warm (must resist the urge to buy a canada goose). These Proenza coats wont keep me warm, but at least i'll look good right? I'd be willing to freeze to death. PLUS: good news! They're on sale for 1850 1295$! A real bargain if you ask me.

Do you know what would make this coat look even better?
A PS11 pouch from Proenza Schouler duh!



Proenza Schouler PS11

EIGHT DAYS OF CHRISTMAS : DAY FOUR

4. GIVENCHY SPRING 2011



LEOPARD JACQUARD WOOL KNIT SWEATER, 1332$ & STRETCH JERSEY LEOPARD LEGGINGS, 908$

Not to wear together, but just to have any of these pieces would be a dream come true. Okay fine, but my anything Givenchy it'll be satisfied (for life).
While you're at it, why not throw in THE gold thorn necklace?


Don't stop there! Don't forget the chic and inexpensive (895$) PS1 Pouchette!

3. THOM BROWNE BROGUES




from style crave

Thom Browne's perfectly pebbled black leather brogues with their signature pull tabs make me so weak.

EIGHT DAYS OF CHRISTMAS : DAY TWO

2. 2011 DR MARTENS: VELVET AND PONY HAIR LEOPARD



photo from montrealinstyle

Dr. Martens spring line is sooo goood. I LOVE the velvet and this AMAAAZING pony hair leopard print ones. Even though they would never last a slushy Montreal winter, the second these are released I am buying myself the leopard ones. Anyone who knows me, knows I love a good leopard print. (Currently on my bed there is 5 different variations of leopard). but this is a whole OTHER LEVEL. I mean PONYHAIR? flawless.



ohhh and if you wanted to throw in a little something extra with my gift, why not add a large Prozenza Schouler PS1 in black leather?
 

EIGHT DAYS OF CHRISTMAS

Christmas is only 8 days away! Since I end on Friday(at 5) and I need a break from studying, I decided to make a little fantasy Christmas wishlist (For those of you wondering what to buy me). I'll be updating every day till the 24th! you welcome!



1. PROENZA SCHOULER: PS1 KEEPALL IN TOBACCO SUEDE





WANT SO BAD, I would do anything for this. I dont get how Jack and Lazaro keep churning out such lust worthy bags, one after the other. I can't even handle how amazing they all are. Every since I saw these in the Resort 2011 pictures, i've dreamt about them. Perfect size, color, shape.

BUY IT FOR ME AT LUISAVIAROMA. FOR A TIDY: 1288$!
import fees and shipping included!

GIVENCHY SPRING 2011 CAMPAIGN

DEAD; how amazing are these? Perfectly hits the mark with Tisci's aesthetic. Overwhelmingly white, yet such a dark pronounced undertone. Exactly and perfectly Ricardo Tisci's vision. Love the softer version of the runway hair, the simple double exposure. It's no surprise this is so good; it's shot by Mert and Marcus and styled by my fav Panos Yiapanis

SANSOVINO 6 F/W 2010

Photos from Sansovino 6

Just discovered Sansovino 6's Fall/Winter 2010 collection. The line started when Edward Buchanan felt a certain void and therefore decided to launch his own line, looking to his friends; asking them what they were missing from their closets. The result, Italian brand Sansovino 6, based out of milan. The F/W collection focuses on luxe separates through knitwear. Utilizing exaggerated proportions and prints. I love the styling; so effortless but yet so put together and interesting. I also love how the pieces are so easily unisex, without losing any form of gender identity. Which is the case with most unisex brands; unisex doesn't have to mean void of gender, which is so much easier. The real challenge is making things that women can wear while retaining their femininity AND at the same time a man could wear the exact same piece without sacrificing his manliness. I think the photos above showcase the versatility really well. If you want your own piece of Sansovino 6, good luck, there are only 8 stockists in the world who carry it.

In other news, classes just ended (yay!) but that means exams are starting and so I probably wont be posting at all. Gotta hit the books!

and so
Happy holidays!
