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

Baseball Cap

I spent most of my elementary school days in tomboyish attire, and it wasn’t until high school (where even though I wore a strict uniform) I became ever so girly! I haven’t given the tomboyish look a thought in a long time, but it was until I spotted this baseball hat and put it on! I’ve realized it gives complete edge to an ordinary outfit, and I’ve now become sucked in with a couple of caps under my belt! The oversized khaki jacket and jean shirt makes for a very androgynous look when pulled together. ~Love CTina XO

Easter Colors

Maxi skirts are one of my favourite articles of clothing for the Spring/Summer! It must be because I always feel super girly when I put it on, or maybe because they’re super comfortable. Either way I love the maxi, but one way to tone down the girliness is to pair a maxi with a graphic tee! Still feel girly but a little more tame! ~Love CTina

Statement Shoes

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

Laranja

I was never a huge fan of orange or bright colored jackets until recently! Black and tan were always my go to ones season after season, until this year when I decided to burst out of my shell and go bold for Fall/Winter. What is your go to colour for a Fall/Winter jacket? ~Love CTina xo

Glitter

Holiday season is around the corner and I can’t wait to experiment with this sequin skirt! I’ve been dying for one lately and seen a few that have caught my eye, but nothing that’s really grabbed my attention, until this one from H&M.  Pairing it with a basic loose fitting T, dresses down the glitzy skirt! How are you planning on dressing for the holidays? ~Love CTina xo

Curled

Hi Loves! Finally I am back after a week hiatus, but it was a crazy one!  Over the weekend I decided to use my new curling iron from Rowenta that I won back in April.  Let me tell you, this curling iron is for people who have no time in the morning to curl their hair! The best thing about this curling iron is that it automatically rotates for you! How cool is that?  Anyways, I think this is the first time all of you have seen me with loose curl hair, and I feel you’ll be seeing a lot more now that I have this amazing product! ~Love CTina xoxo

Blueberry

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
