Last time, I posted a non-outfit post of the silk/tweed Chloe Coat Dress by one of my favourite brands, Aime, a Toronto-based line of seasonless, eco-friendly clothing by Monica Mei. By the time I had posted a picture of it, I had worn the coat dress numerous times to various events, including the Barefoot Wines […]

Tory Burch’s Spring/Summer 2013 collection focuses on bright colours – citrons, blues and corals, specifically – as well as patterns and detailing, such as fringed hemlines.

Warm weather-friendly brightly coloured pieces mixed with whites dominate Rebecca Minkoff’s Spring/Summer 2013 collection. In addition, tends that were “it” in 2012 continue next season, including patterned pants. Though many of the pieces, especially the more flowy looks and soft, comfortable shorts, signal those who are young, fun and carefree – boho, if you will. […]
