My Current Favorites





Well here is a little blurb about all of my current favorites and items on my Christmas list (a girl can dream). Here it goes....




A leather jacket but not just any leather jacket. The Veda Viper double zip jacket (the panel in the middle zips out). Veda Clothing is a new line of leather jackets launched in Spring of 2008 by Lyndsey D. Butler. She specializes in only leathers from classic to innovative distressed leathers. She aims to create the perfect leather for everyone.







Another item of interest is Valerie Dumaine's "Tess" Dress. Dumaine graduated from LaSalle college in Canada. Once she graduated in 1998 she briefly went to London to complete an internship,from London she moved to Germany where she truly became inspired. In the Spring of 2004 she launched her clothing line back in Montreal. In her designs she aims for clean and elegant lines. She is inspired by the past and loves making items to mix and match. All of her garments are made in Canada.



Of course my favorites would not be complete without YSL ( Yves St Laurent) YSL is an Algerian French designer and considered to be one of the greatest figures in fashion in the 20th century, however I would argue of all time. He attended Chambre Syndicale but left after a few months because it was frustrating. YSL then went on to work for Dior as Brunoff had seen his amazing talent. in 1957 Laurent was to succeed Dior as head designer and was the head designer for Dior at 21 years old. In 1960 he went on to launch his own line and he is credited for saving couture houses as he came out with a couture line and ready to wear line. He later died in 2008 of brain cancer.



I do not know much about the designer but I do know its a beautiful wool Olga coat. It was designed by Tatyana Merenyuk who is a designer from Ukraine who now resides in Chicago. This coat is a double breasted military style coat with a skirt at the bottom. The coat is not only elegant but very feminine.



Last but not least thigh high boots! They are a fall 2009 must have for the season. They have been featured in many magazines for the season and in many ready to wear collections. Picture above are Report Signature boots. Report Signature make footwear only that are very playful, flirty and versatile.


These are just a few of my favorite things! A little to expensive for me but maybe one day :)
