The Collar

Hi Loves!

Spotted

Patterned tights have never been my thing, until recently when I took the plunge and purchased these black and white polka dot printed tights.  Since the print was bold enough, I paired them with a basic black outfit and minimal accessories.  What would be your choice of patterned tights? ~Love CTina Xo

I hope all of you, who had a long week, enjoyed it! Other than being the stylist for back to school at Mapleview Center, I definitely took in the time to relax and have fun! One of my favorite outings, was my day trip to Toronto Center Island! I haven’t been since I was a little girl and it was a great way to cheers off summer!  I got some of the best shots of Toronto I have ever seen (check here). Today was back to work and I decided to in corporate a little bit of Fall 2012 in my outfit today, using cobalt blue as my pop of color! Enjoy. ~Love CTina xoxo

Bandaged Up

I purchased this bandage skirt last year at Holt Renfrew and I’ve never ever had the appropriate blouse to match it with, until a week ago! The neon against the army green and cream was a great contrast!  The gold collar was a nice added touch as an accessory, since it was simple and most importantly since it followed the post on Fall 2012 hottest accessory trend, the collar! Enjoy. ~Love CTina xoxo

Trend Watch: Collars


Detailed collars are a favorite accessory of mine for fall!

But nonetheless a girl can never have too many collared necklaces. For those of you who have me on Instagram, you’ve already seen my newest accessories purchase full of collars! Here are a few other favorites I’ve come across!! Enjoy ~Love CTina xo

Leopard + Stripes

Stripes with any other print has been a huge trend this season, and when I came across this simple thin black striped tshirt I knew that it would go well with any print or even alone with bold accessories!  As for my footwear, it’s very rare I wear booties in the summer time, but with this skirt nothing goes best other than these! Hope all of you are enjoying your week and have a fabulous weekend loves! ~Love CTina xoxo

Ombre Orange

I have been very inspired today from my shirt! The colors remind me of a beautiful sunset while up north. I was so inspired that I even painted an ombre pink/orange color on my nails. Accessories were kept to a minimum because of the bright color combinations used. Hope you loves enjoyed your weekend! ~Love Ctina xo
