Birds, Birds, Birds

So I've banned myself from stores for a couple of days to gather my senses. The fall stuff is just too much for me, the boots, the jackets, the colors, the chunky knits, I want it all! I would say I've tryed to avoid online stores as well, but that would be a lie because it didnt last even a half day.

During that half day I ended up looking on the Tattoologist, which became slightly addicting, its making me seriously want a tattoo, but for now I think im just too undecided when it comes to lifelong decisions like that. Im thinking someone needs to come up with a better temporary tattoo that lasts about a month or two, that would be really cool. Im thinking I would get a bird of some kind or a feather or something else whimsically.




Some of my faves, especially that last one!

Womens Leather Jackets – Long-Lasting Style

Womens leather jackets are some of the most popular outerwear available on the market and there is no sign of that changing in the future.
They offer warmth along with protection from wind and rain while giving you a sexy and exotic look as well. If fleece and puffer coats don’t fit into your cool weather wardrobe, then it may be worth your time to look into womens leather jackets.

The variety of leather coats for ladies is rather expansive so finding the perfect one can take a bit of looking. Whether you choose to shop online or at local department stores, you will be able to find several different styles of jacket and types of leather available through either outlet.

Suede
A suede leather jacket is one of the classiest styles on the market. The soft and supple material is a lot more feminine and delicate than standard leather, but still offers many of the same benefits in terms of warmth, wind protection and style. The one downside to suede is that it can be a bit more difficult to keep clean and doesn’t do as well in the rain as treated leather does.

Picking up a suede leather jacket will allow to show off your style and sophistication without giving you the rough and tumble look associated with womens leather jackets.

Leather
When it comes to looking into genuine leather outerwear, you will find a lot of different styles including blazers, the ever popular biker jackets and bombers. All three types are incredibly durable and versatile, but each one holds it’s own type of attitude in it’s design. Leather blazer jackets are often more chic than the other two styles and allow you to show off your feminine side a bit more. Womens leather bomber jacket styles and motorcycle jackets pair sex appeal with the impression that you are bad to the bone.

Wool and Fur Accents
Regardless of the type of womens leather jackets that you look into, you can easily soften their appearance by opting for a style that has fur or wool accents. This will provide you with extra warmth and comfort while softening the appearance of even the most fierce style of womens leather motorcycle jackets.

A good leather coat can outlast the vast majority of your wardrobe and even be handed down to future generations if it’s well kept. Whether you opt for a bomber, a blazer or a motorcycle jacket you will find that you will be kept warm and snug year after year. If you need a coat that can stand up to your wardrobe and will last you through more than just a year or two, womens leather jackets are great for you.

Top 5 Must Haves For Fall 2010!

I like to look at each day as a new opportunity to express my own personal style and make a fashion statement. So as the seasons change, I have the ability to expand my look, incorporate new glamorous pieces and take risks.

As the summer season winds down and the cool weather rolls in, runway shows are overflowing with gorgeous new pieces from top designers. I was moved by some of the curvier models that strutted through Paris wearing Louis Vuitton and Prada. While I do adore the tubular bodies that typically walk the run way, I thought it was refreshing to view real women. In fact, I was better able to see how the clothes would fall on MY body!
Let’s talk about what we need this season.

1. An oversized clutch. This is going to take you from day to night, ladies. It is a must-have!
2. Over the knee boots. This is over the top sexy glamour. I am going to be investing in a pair but, if this is too high for you, I recommend getting a great pair of knee high boots.

3. Maxi Skirts. Maxi dresses make a full on come back last season so inevitably, this fall open your closets to flowy maxi skirts!

4. Pleated skirts are back! My advice on pleats is to ensure that the pleating starts below the hip bone. This is going to give your body the most flattering silhouette.

5. Foolproof platforms. Platforms give you the height you desire with the comfort that you need.

Enjoy the brisk weather this fall and remember to layer, layer and layer. Layering is HUGE this season and it is a fabulous look. Invest in a great trench and keep a collection of scarves on hand. Have fun and remember -- for more information, feel free to contact me!

Sorry I've been so MIA, its just been insanely hot so I've been really lazy. I also went to Seattle for a couple of nights and got some pretty sweet deals that could never be had in Canada. And Im pretty sure Im actually addicted to Tims Ice Caps.

Wandering

Since getting back into the internet groove I've been really looking into all things fall. I can't help it, this seasons fall stuff has me very excited! I decided to play around with polyvore a little more so I could make some collages.. Im still very much a work in progress, Im very slow at adapting to any new programs.

Anyhow I decided to make a little collage with one of my fave photos from an editorial I showed awhile back and stick it with some of the boots Im most excited about this season. I actually picked up the dark brown Tommy Hilfiger booties in navy blue last year at Ross for only 15.99, so excited to get wearing them this fall!

Toe Ring Sandals. Need a Lift?

By Mary

Fret not those who are less endowed on height, these sandals also come in wedges and heels! Here are some styles worth considering.

Juicy Couture Savvi Wedge Sandals in lemon

Juicy Couture Savvi Wedge sandals in black

The pair in yummy lemon shade is perfect to welcome the hot summer season! This will easily work with jeans, shorts, dresses. (Be wary of proportions though, nothing too long nor too short). For those who are not risk takers, the pairs in black, grey, or brown are also good choices. The leather upper and lining, padded insole, and adjustable ankle straps make these wedges comfortable.

Mia Lynette wedge sandals

This Mia Lynette pair is a conservative yet stylish choice for the wise shopper. The brown shade and the sophisticated way the straps cross over gives this pair closet longevity. You can rock this pair this summer season, next year’s spring summer,and even the one after if you haven’t still worn this out to bits. This is the kind of shoes that you will love forever.

 KORS Michael Kors Ariel Wegde Sandals

Once you see chic women strutting their espadrilles, summer has definitely arrived. This one is a good choice for the ultra hot season. Though the braided out sole screams casual, the gold metallic leather straps raises the chic factor and makes it dressier. If you live in tropical cities or is headed out for one, this pair is for you. It also comes in coffee and silver.

KORS Michael Kors Shiloh platform stacked heel sandals

The clear plastic or lucite was a very transparent trend at the Spring 2010 runways. This pair is for the trendsetter. The cork out sole and clear plastic strap make this one very stylish. This is good to have when you already own a pair or two of basic wedges. Though its relatively easy to wear, it may need some courage to pull off.

 Belle by Sigerson Morrison stacked heel sandals

For those who can’t bear the height of the wedges featured above, this pair is one to try. It features not too high, not too low stacked heels, toe ring, and ankle straps. The studded straps give it a dose of elegance which makes this pair easy to use may your look be casual or dressy. The architectural look of the heel also makes this one look up- to- date with the current minimalist trend of the season.

All these pairs not only look stylish but comfortable as well. Whether you’re yearning for style, comfort, or height all these have all three to offer. Check them out at www.zappos.com.
