Isabel Marant is known for her effortless Parisian, and this year, she has collaborated with H&M to offer the Isabel Marant for H&M collection that is much more accessible for the general public.  Emily and I got to attend the VIP pre-sale party at the Bloor Street store in Toronto.  We were 3rd/4th in line so we pretty much got everything we were looking for!

We were 3rd/4th in line and got quite a good view at the collection before the rush

I got the following pieces from the collection...


And here're some demos of how the clothes fit on my boyfriend and myself... Yes, we had a late night mini shoot... haha

Girls Sweater in size 10-12Y CA $69.95

The lovely people at Debenhams has asked me if I would like to style and accessorise inspired by British style icons using items sold on Debenhams.com.  For those of you who are not familiar with Debenhams, it is a UK based retailer that carries products from fashion to beauty, home to electronics.  While having over 240 stores in 28 countries, Debenhams is also available online for 70 countries shipping internationally (including North America).  Being a huge Harry Potter fan, I have, of course, chosen to use Emma Watson as my style inspiration for this challenge.

While known for her glamourous red carpet looks, Emma Watson is quite "laid-back/relaxed chic" when it comes to her off-duty style.  She said in her recent interview with Net-A-Poter's The Edit that her personal wardrobe is much more comfortable (than her red carpet attires) for her everyday style.  I absolutely agree with Emma and I, too, usually would go for comfortable clothing when I shop.  In this post, I am going to show you how I get warm-and-cozy-Emma-style for this year's Autumn and Winter using a few pieces found on Debenhams.

My current stash of bracelets overload =P

Summer's in and the heat wave just keep coming in Toronto.  We no longer need to cover our skin with sweaters or cardigans because the weather is just not letting us do so.  With slightly more exposed skin, I like it cover it up with something else... Jewelery!  I find myself wear more bracelets and bangles during the Summer simply because my arms feel too empty.  On top of that, accessorizing is a great way to spice up your outfit.  If you haven't notice already, it seems like there is a new thing called "Wrist Of The Day" going on on Twitter, Instagram, and the blogosphere...  So today, I want to show you one of my current favourite pairings...


One of my favourite pairings of the moment consists of the following two.  First from J.Crew, a turquoise bracelet I got two months ago.  I got a little happy when I found out the lovely Fleur from FleurDeForce has the same one =)... hehe..

I think I am doing quite well with my fashion posts this week, right?  I mean, it's only Thursday, and I got two fashion posts out =D (patting myself on the back).  I think I need to try taking more pictures outside during the weekend so that I can have regular fashion posts!  Anyway, this is another outfit idea post, and our feature today is my Talula Betsy Blouse.

That would be one way to wear it.  In fact, I think I'll try that next time LOL.  Anyway, so how to I coordinate this with my wardrobe.  Here I got two ideas.  First let's see what I would pair with it for work...
