Classic Black & White

May 13, 2013 By 1 Comment

Hey Loves! One of the biggest trends for Spring/Summer 2013 is black and white, and white on white.  Sometimes you can’t always find the right shade of white to pair together, but that’s not a problem. These days you can mix and match whites even if one is more ivory than the other, which is what I did here! ~Love Ctina xo

Truth or Dare

April 8, 2013 By 2 Comments

I want to say a big thank you to Aldo for these AMAZING pumps from the Truth or Dare collection by Madonna! Not only are they stunning, but they are the most comfortable pair of pumps I’ve slipped on in awhile! The Truth or Dare collection by Madonna is targeting Madonna’s core demographic {women aged 27-50} who have sex appeal and timeless style, just like her! Thank you again Aldo! ~Love CTina XO

Casual Chic

April 1, 2013 By 5 Comments

Hope all of you loves had a very Happy Easter! Since ripped jeans is really not allowed at my place of work, yet I try to get away with it sometimes, when I’m in the office and not out and about with clients, I find that the only time to wear them is out on weekends.  Pairing them with a casual chic jacket, like this leopard one and some pumps can make this outfit appropriate to wear at family functions or even a day outing! ~Love CTINA XO

Spring Floral

As Spring approaches {thank goodness}, I can’t help to put on my favourite floral blazer! I just hope the saying ‘April showers brings May flowers’ because I don’t know if I could deal with anymore depressing weather! Print mixing is still big for this season, however we can see a change mid-season and into Fall/Winter of matchy matchy! ~Love CTina XO

Pop of Mint

What I love most about an all black outfit is not how classic it looks, but how any statement colored piece makes it look ultra sophisticated, like I’ve done with these fabulous mint colored necklace! Hope to see all you fellow Toronto bloggers at the Grey Goose Lounge opening tonight! ~Love CTina XO

Hi Loves! First I wanted to say thank you for all the warm birthday wishes this weekend and to everyone who helped me celebrate 28 years of excellence in style & class! As one of my purchases for my birthday, since every girl should always buy herself something on the special day, I couldn’t resist these statement shoes from Zara! I mean how fabulous are these babies? The geometric black and white print and gold studs will take any casual outfit to a whole different level! ~Love CTina XO

Hi Loves! Hope you all had a fabulous weekend! Although we had that horrid snow storm on Friday, I was happy to see that Saturday & Sunday were mild days and boots were something I didn’t have to wear! Casual attire is always something that is a must have in your wardrobe, and boyfriend jeans paired with a boyfriend blazer and flats is the ultimate way to be casual chic! ~Love CTina XO

Holiday Outfit: Day – Night

December 12, 2012 By 5 Comments

Hi Loves! From my recent post focusing on holiday outfit inspirations, sparkle and sequins was the only thing that has been on my mind! The holidays are upon us and all the next couple weeks call for are parties.  Most of these normally occur throughout the work week and there is nothing worse than lugging half of your wardrobe with you so that you are party ready!  There are numerous ways to transform your work attire into a stylish fabulous party outfit, with just a few simple changes.  I love sequins during the holiday season. There is something about it that no matter what you’re pairing with it, it will always look dressed up and sophisticated. Even though my sequin skirt screams party, I still managed to transform my work outfit into something more fun by switching my everyday bag big to a small clutch, adding a few chunky accessories, changing my lip colour to a bold one and throwing my hair into a messy bun.  These small changes only take a few minutes and after you’ll be party ready! Hope all of you have a Happy Holiday! ~Love CTina xo
