Classic Black & White

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

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

Floral Prints

Big thanks to Cathryn Ann Designs for this amazing teardrop crystal necklace! I absolutely adore it and everything else from her collection, which you can find on Etsy!

Denim is something that no wardrobe can be without! For Spring 2013 the hottest trends in the denim department are waxed, patterned, and colour-blocked (whether it is different shades of denim or just colour-block in general). Although I adore waxed/coated jeans, I feel that for Spring/Summer patterned denim is my favourite. Whether you pair with heels or with statement flats, these jeans are a favourite pant in my wardrobe for the upcoming season!

Casual Chic

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

Classic Block

One of my most favourite trends is black and white, which is when I found these FABULOUS shoes from Nine West I knew it would complete and compliment any outfit, especially this black and white one. What is your best accessory or shoe to help compliment an outfit? ~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

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

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
