Jenna Lyon's Townhouse

J Crew's mastermind Jenna Lyon is selling her townhouse and I thought I would share some photos of her beautiful home. These pictures have been circulating for some time now, but with my obsession of interiors and my lack of blogging I thought although dated its still a must to post! I am one of those freaks who has a categorized binder with all things interior design (NO JOKE!). I look at in interior photo and take away so many details that an idea for my home is sure to spark! My newly unfurnished condo is so bare and boring and with all of my work traveling coupled with being lazy I have yet to decorate! When I laid my eyes on Jenna's home the first thing to catch my attention was the subtle gray walls! I could totally envision my home having the same feel! I am also super organic and have a serious fascination with antlers and fur throws! I have some in my bedroom but doing a whole wall in them is beyond!

Courtin-Clarins

Boy do I love a fashionable family! These sisters and cousins are beyond my wildest dreams! Their style is chic yet unexpected! I feel like lately I have been dried out on the outfit inspiration and lucky for me I have stumbled into the Clarins' world of bad ass dressing! Score!!!! Now its time to do some dressing up of my own! I have tons of holiday get togethers I am sure to conjure up some sort of Clarins' reminiscent ensemble or so I hope! Wish me luck!!!

What Men Fashion Styles to Watch Out in this Winter?

We can all try and deny it but summer is officially over and now is mid of winter. It’s time to turn out the closet and change the thin spring/summer clothes for thicker, warmer clothing. The men’s winter 2011 trends are all about smart and fashionable winter-weather dressing.

We always associate winter with dark dull colors because that is what they are; the sunny bright days is being replaced by the bitter cold weather. However, forget the usual blacks, charcoals and grey as another trend has taken over the streets. Colors are a big feature for this coming season. Everything is being revamped into a wide range of colors and prints. The usual dark ensemble is being replaced with a burst of bright daring colors. Designers such as Burberry and Vivienne Westwood have shown a lot of blues, reds and greens while daring designers such as D&G have gone for eye-catching orange.

Another fashion styles that deserve a watchful eye is the clothing’s material. This season, materials are given as much attention to as the design of an outfit. Tweeds used to be thick and itchy but now, the tweed that is currently stirring a trend in winter season is softer and lighter. It is sturdy without being too restrictive.

When deciding on a jacket to beat the cold winter, how about these cool aviator jackets? This trendy life-saver in the bitter winter has become a popular addition in runways. It made an appearance in Burberry Prorsum, Lanvin, Hermes and Trussardi 2011's shows.

Some of the prevailing trends for this season’s men’s autumn winter accessories are faux fur and leather. There is a wealthy amount of fur and sheepskin trapper hats on the high street this season. These items can make all the difference when put together with an outfit for winter.

A few years ago men hardly had the opportunity of such a large choice of gloves. But thankfully fashion is stepping forward and today a good variety of design and fabrics are being offered to the gents. Many designers such as Lanvin and Giuliano Fujiwara welcome this accessory on their runways. Gloves are not only one of the coolest fashion accessories but it also helps keep you warm and comfortable through the bitter cold season. Opt for a pair of leather gloves if you wish to portray that ‘gentlemen style’.

Just because it is winter does not mean you should abandon your fashion sense for the season. Stay up to date with trends just as how you would with summer and your winter will no longer be as dull.

VINTAGE FLORAL

Dear friends,

Ever have one of those weeks?

Absolutely flat out from my end, but I can't (and won't) complain. The festive season brings some great parties, the perfect excuse to spend extra time with family and friends and of course holidays, which means not long until my Ski holiday in Japan! Can't wait!

This near perfect vintage floral print is actually a dress (worn as a vest) picked up from my favourite Canadian vintage store SHOPPALU. Gorgeous or what!

I'm wearing:
Vintage dress, via SHOPPALU
Denim cut-offs, via LITTLE LEFT OF CENTRE
Sunglasses + Shirt, Mink Pink MARKET HQ
Biker boots, via TONY BIANCO

Luv,
Friend in Fashion
