Inspiration Canvas – Frost Yourself

The Fashion Canvas - Frost Yourself

 THE CANVAS –

Purse : Chloé ~ Earmuffs : Harvey Nichols ~ Coat : J.Crew ~ Boots : UGG Australia ~
Earrings : J.Crew ~ Bracelet : Kate Spade ~ Candle : Diptyque

I hope people enjoyed the title of this blog post lol. It comes from one of my favorite movies of all time, How To Lose A Guy in 10 Days!! But I think that I may be able to take this title literally and hypothetically with our current weather.

This palette contains some of my favorite colors for this time of year. I love the white, black and mint/light blue combo I have been seeing lately. It is so romantic and works perfectly in our frosty setting.

Hope you all have a great weekend!

Red Carpet – Golden Globes Edition

Golden Globes Fashion:
The Good, The Bad and The Just Ok

 

THE GOOD

Julianne Hough in Monique Lhuillier – She looks absolutely stunning and I love even more that she is originally from Utah! This dress reminds me of the dress Serena wore on the final episode of Gossip Girl, and I think both dresses could be my future wedding gown 😉

Katharine McPhee in Theyskens’ Theory –  Typically, I would not like something this revealing, but I think she rocks this look! The only think I might have done is perfect the hair a bit more, it is a little messy for the structured dress.

Nicole Richie in Naeem Kahn – This color is phenomenal with Nicole’s skin tone. Not to keep referencing Gossip Girl, but this totally reminds me of Blaire’s wedding gown. I think this color is going to be Spring’s hottest color!

Michelle Dockery in Alexandre Vauthier : Stunning! I love the placement of the gold overlay. It is the perfect balance with the soft white bottom.

Amy Adams in Marchesa – The fit, the color, the hair, the minimal accessories….all perfect. A+
(Her best look yet)

Kerry Washington in Mui Mui – Fabulous! The embroidery over the sheer fabric is impeccable. I wish I could have seen it in person.

Jennifer Lawrence in Dior – This dress is amazingly flattering. The belt makes her waist appear tinier than it already is!

THE JUST OK

Adele in Burberry – So I love Adele, and I love Burberry. But I feel like I have seen her in this before (or like twenty times). I wish she would try some fun styles and colors. Lets break the mold!

Ariel Winter in Valentino – I do think that this is an age appropriate dress, but come on its the Golden Globes, not a tea party.

Taylor Swift in Donna Karan – LOVE the plum color, but I think this looks too old for her. Would have been better on someone like Nicole Kidman with her red hair.

Anne Hathaway in Chanel – I love her short hair and the white is pretty against her skin tone, but I think she could have chosen more of a wow piece to match her amazing performance in Les Mis.

Stacey Keibler – The dress is pretty, the arm candy is better!!

THE BAD

Halle Berry in Versace – I know this pattern is very “Versace Esque”, but I think it was the wrong choice. She is usually on my best dressed list, but this looked cheap and tacky.

Eva Longoria in Emilio Pucci – Hello Leg!!! The slit is just way too high and I feel like the top is unflattering too. Plus the hair doesn’t work with this.

Jessica Chastain in Calvin Klein – Can we say unflattering?? The fit on top is all wrong. Plus take a look at the platform on those shoes. Way too Lady Gaga for such a classy lady!

Rachel Weisz in Louis Vuitton – This looks like a dress made at Forever 21. I know polka dots are in, but I don’t love it for the red carpet. Also, the shoes are too chunky under the sheer fabric and look very 90’s.

Sienna Miller in Erdem – One word…WOOF! This woman is the queen of trends, but please kill me now if this look comes in style.

Holiday Gift Guide

Holiday Gift Guide

THE CANVAS – 

1. Essie Nail Polish ~ 2. Kate Spade Coasters ~ 3. J.Crew Earrings ~
4. Kate Spade iPhone Case ~ 5. Voluspa Candles ~  6. Brittany Fuson Notecards

These girly gifts can given to girlfriends, sisters, moms, etc. as gifts or stocking stuffers. The best part is that they have a wide price range from $10-$80, so there is something for every budget.

My favorite find was the notecards! I found them on a blog I read and was obsessed. I thought it would be fun to give different sets of cards to my girlfriends and find the illustration that matched their personality the closest!

Holiday Treats!

Holiday Treats

THE CANVAS –

1. Hermes Bracelet ~ 2. J.Crew Vest ~ 3. YSL Ring ~ 4. Tory Burch Wallet  ~
5. Diptyque Scented Candle (Figuier) ~ 6. Creed Perfume  (Virgin Island Water) ~ 7. Burberry Scarf

With the holidays just around the corner, I decided to put a little wish list together of some of my favorite brands and items I am currently obsessing over. Since these gifts  are on the tad expensive side, I hope to maybe get one or two of them this season.
What is on your holiday wish list this year?

1. I have been wanting this bracelet for years now. I think it might be time to splurge!
2. I saw this vest on the blog Pink Peonies and fell in love. It can be paired with so many colors and is a good “fancy” vest.
3. My friend got this ring recently and I am obsessed with the different shape and structure of it. Hopefully they don’t mind if I get it. I guess copying can be the biggest form of flattery!
4. What can I not say about this wallet. It is the perfect color, fabric and can hold so much. I think this or the Hobo are great wallets.
5. My favorite candle scent! I actually love the huge candles they make, but they are pretty pricey. Another candle that ou can never go wrong with is the Jo Malone.
6. I got this perfume as a gift about a  year ago because it was the perfume I was obsessing over for quite some time. But because of the price, I usually limit myself and try to wear it for special occasions so that it will last longer than a daily perfume.
