Some days are for fun, and this weekend my lovely boyfriend and photographer, Trevor, got a little silly with me while doing the laundry. There should never be a missed opportunity to look cute and try something new. Remember fashion is suppose to be fun, so have some with it.

I love that preppy and sartorial garments are all the rage this season. Typically lady-like menswear, well cut of course, will flatter most body types really well, though, for us busty girls finding great shirts are hard to find. Choosing silk, or even a polyester blend fabric for a blouse may help, if you have this problem too. Mixing structured pieces with more feminine ones, like a blazer and shirt with a pleated A-line skirt, is a nice way to soften a potentially hard outfit.
Plaid Magazine (where I am the Art Director) just launched it’s Fall/Winter 2012 issue. Order it online now or wait for it to appear at a Chapters/Indigo location near you!

So runway shows are unfortunately something I don’t get to often experience first-hand, as I’ve always worked full time, but that doesn’t mean I’m not watching the shows, blogs, and the magazines, every time New York, Paris, London, and of course Toronto have their Fashion Weeks. Oscar de la Renta’s Spring Summer 2013 showed this week and it was unreal, I can’t even deal with the collection. It was so well thought out, having everything from gowns to piece easily worn for work.
With the inability to think of anyone else this morning I decided to rock this vintage Oscar de la Renta silk blouse I had picked up a while back while thrifting at Value Village.
Other must see collections from NYFW include the J. Crew and of course Marc Jacob’s, both with pieces I’ll be coveting for many months.
