I Want a Sunday Kind of Look

They say that breaking up is hard to do.  And my darlings, we know how true it is.  And yet, I've always been more inclined to say that waking up is hard to do (I for one, am not the biggest fan).  But there are a few things that can get me right out of bed early on a Sunday morn: bacon & eggs, good friends and the possibility of a really, really rad outfit (hey, I'm no Linda Evangelista)! Dang, I should have bought that lotto ticket because lady luck was on my side this Sunday when I got all three in one go! I stalked down Mitch and his killer look at brunch in Mirvish Village. 

Friends, this is what I like to call a Sunday Kind of Look; It's a look that lasts past Saturday night. It's easy to look sexy in the dark of the bar (three drinks in and everyone looks fly).   But it takes extra special styling skills to bust out an outfit of this caliber in natural light, before noon on a Sunday. No I wasn't at church, but can I get an 'Amen'? (Amen!)

Mitch only had a quick second so I don't have the details of his 'fit.  But he was so sweet he even posed for me on both sides of the street for the different lighting.  Amazing. Thanks Mitch!!

Big White Tent? Heels so High They Might Kill Ya? P.E.T.A? It Must be LG Toronto Fashion Week!!

So It’s Fashion Week in Toronto and you didn’t get invited to any of the events? Well buck up Sweetheart, neither did I! But that didn’t stop me from pacing back and forth in front of the big white tent like a fashion- crazed lunatic with a camera. Oh no it didn’t.

The looks coming down the runway inside were all Spring/ Summer 2010 but outside in Liberty Village last night the weather was still Fall‘09. And as Toronto’s fashion elite rushed into the warmth of the venue I witness some of the wobbliest walking I’ve ever seen. If being seen at Fashion Week doesn’t bring out that extra inch of high heel in a gal, baby nothing will!

Many a polished look passed me by while I lurked outside, but I like a little edge. And then, up walked Alisa. While making her way backstage this model has so much edge she could keep Gillette in business. Her look is mighty fierce but her shopping philosophy is down to earth. The boots are from Urban Planet. The tights, jacket and bag are hot finds from Winners, while the ultra mini-dress comes from Costa Blanca. She’s a girl who loves to add drama and ummph to all her outfits. Alisa, I admire your boldness, but mostly I just admire your legs. Well girls, maybe next lifetime.

Alisa walked in the Bustle (designed by Project Runway Canada judge Shawn Hewson) show last night.

Check her out on the runway in the turquoise bikini!
