Splurge vs Steal

Kim Kardashian's inspired Max Mara Manuela camel coat ($1430)  for a fraction of the price ($158).




My version was found at boutique 1861's sister store (on St-Laurent) "La petite Garçonne", which recently opened on Nov. 13. It will not keep me warm in this weather but it will definitely be a great statement piece!

Nars-Guy Bourdin Holiday 2013

Francois Nars took his inspiration from photographer Guy Bourdin for the Holiday 2013 collection.
 
I bought the limited edition One Night Stand Cheek Palette from Sephora during the VIB sale earlier this November.
 
The colours included in the palette are; Laguna, Deep Throat, Orgasm, Mistinguette, Goulue and Devotee.  I received this palette yesterday and could not be more ecstatic. Every single colour is gorgeous and highly pigmented. A little goes a long way.
 
Don't hesitate, grab this palette while it's available!

L-R : Devotee, Mistinguette, Orgasm, Laguna, Deep Throat and Goulue

Isabel Marant for H&M 


The collection launched today!
Only available at 2 H&M locations in Montreal: Rockland and Dowtown.
I went by the Rockland store this morning, to see if I could snag a few items off the racks.

When I waltz in around 10:30 a.m. there was no line up, not too many people so I thought so far so good nothing too crazy. Then it hit me when I asked the sales person why their selection was so small..they were open since 8 A.M.!! I suddenly found myself sprinting through the racks in search of any remaining goods I could get in my size.

They still had a lot of accessories (unfortunately, no fringed boots in sights) and a few good pieces that were on my list (no signature cardigans). I managed to get my hands on the black lace dress, the grey sweat pants, the printed tee and the silver tassel necklace. Not so bad eh,  for a latecomer? Early bird shoppers who had first picks will be sure to return some items so I will definitely keep an eye open for those pieces that I missed! In the meantime I will enjoy my finds!

Tough as Nails!



Looking to spice up your manicure routine?  Look no further than Le Manoir Coquetterie (15 rue Sainte-Catherine Est, Montreal, Quebec H2X 1K3).

They specialize in of the moment nail art ( think Rihanna's nails) . I opted for a reverse french manicure.

I really enjoyed my trip to Le Manoir and suggest booking an appointment there ASAP!

Intro



Like 2 peas in pod

Starting a blog is not an easy thing, but I think it kind of comes naturally. It’s like when you meet someone new, the conversation either flows or it doesn’t.  Finding things to talk about can be hard but if you put two people together that share a passion for fashion you may end up with great ideas & a blog.

Guess what happened to us? We decided to do this as a duo instead of solo project. Great minds think alike right? So let’s see if we can keep the conversation going. Read on and find out what we have to say about life, fashion and what not.
