Fashion Friday Post: The two-toned shoe need!

Something I'm really looking forward to this spring, is the two toned shoe, and more specifically, in black and white/nude colors.This trend suits my style perfectly and would go great with pretty much anything in my wardrobe! Here are my favorite picks, in pyramid format, for fun:

From top to bottom: J Crew Etta Cap Toe Leather Pump, J Crew Everly Cap Toe Pumps, Aldo Heliette Heels, Steven Fearless Captoe Pumps, Pour La Victoire Colettea Pumps, Kary Pointed-toe pump.

Some of these are affordable, some of them (AKA, J Crew) are much less affordable. The most drool-worthy are the gorgeous and strappy Pour La Victoire heels. If money was no object, they would be mine in a heartbeat! The Aldo ones will hopefully be mine sometime this spring, preferably when they are on sale, because that's how I do it! 

Have a great weekend peeps! I will hopefully have a really relaxing weekend, because my achy body is telling me I really need it!

Wishlist of the moment!

My current wishlist is comprised of things I'll never ever be able to afford, and a couple things I plan on purchasing in the near future.


First on my wishlist is Stila's Kajal Eye Pencil in Topaz, which is perfect for a natural eye look. I've been wanting a nude eyeliner for the waterline forever, and since MAC's NC15/NW20 is always sold out, this was my next choice.

I am loving the look of bright belts with t-shirt type dresses. I think this Gorjana belt would look absolutely fab with a cream or navy casual dress.

I LOVE Pour La Victoire Shoes. I love the shape, the colors and the originality of their designs. These latest coral wedges called the Mai have me smitten. If only! The Cobalt version is also absolutely fabulous!

I'm a massive fan of Rebecca Minkoff, so it seemed only fitting to add one of her latest designs to this wishlist. One that I could never afford at that! The Buckled Clutch is soft, feminine and the most beautiful blush color. I can totally see myself wearing this with my Gap wrap dress!

This Burberry Lip Mist will be my end. I LOVE the samples I've tried out but its price is ridiculous and shipping and duty to Canada makes it not be worth it. So long Lip Mist! Perhaps I will see you at a counter, one of these days!

This Nuxe Rève de Miel balm has been raved about by so many bloggers, it's almost ridiculous. Consequently, it's evident that I will need to purchase it soon. Luckily, it is available at my local Shoppers Drug Mart!

Are you an occasional wishlister like me? What's on your wishlist right now?

Shopping Trip Results

I went shopping last weekend. Out of town shopping. That means new stores, new products.

I did some damage.

I got another Tarte Amazonian Clay blush, this time in Blissful (I already have exposed), MAC Pro Pan eyeshadow in All That Glitters, Estee Lauder Day Wear BB Cream in Light (so excited about this one!), MAC liner in Teddy, Butter London nail polish in Aston, and some Lush products! I'm already in LOVE with the Jumpin Juniper shampoo bar. I forgot to include my Clinique Almost Lipstick in Spicy Honey, which I've already worn a lot and now want all the other shades.


I got some clothing as well, including a skirt, a chunky knit cardigan/sweater, another cream cardigan and a tank. And these:


They are Pour La Victoire flats. And how much did I pay for them? Twelve effing bucks. I was so happy about this find! Hopefully they'll get loads of wear after the snow melts!

I meant to buy the Clarisonic on my shopping trip but found it at Sephora for more than a Canadian online retailer I'm familiar with. So I'm happy to announce that I finally have a Clarisonic coming my way. I ordered it from Spaboutique.ca where they do have a 10% coupon floating around, and free shipping. Woop! I shall update with a review soon, hopefully!
