Recent Finds...Kit and Ace

TGIF!
I found out about Kit and Ace while watching Queen of Sheba recently...(check out the video below)

My Verdict: Praiseworthy. There's a store close by so I decided to pop by and check out this technical cashmere for myself!
Happy to report the fabric really is super soft and luxurious! I picked up 2 tops and will be ordering a few more as they didn't have the colour I wanted in stock.

Haro Tank

Calvert Tee ( I purchased this one in black and will be ordering this colour as well)

Harwood Tee

Mara Tank (I tried the grey and this was very flattering on, debating on getting a black too but do I really need another one? lol)

Recent Finds...Winners - Moschino

Moschino Jacket 

My Verdict: Praiseworthy. Another great find from Winners this past weekend. It seems I have the best luck at the Park Royal location. It's my go to for designer pieces. I also find many baby items at great prices. Check it out before you pop by Babies R Us.

Hautelook Recent Finds...

I try my best to not purchase online anymore unless I know for sure it will fit, but in this case I couldn't help myself(sales kill me *~*)...

Picked up M Missoni Cardigan (57% off returnable) and Laura Mercier Fragrance Set (44% off final sale)

Readers have you ordered from Hautelook before? Any success stories?

See here and here for previous Hautelook finds...

*Update, received the sweater. It looked horrible on *~*, it's going back!

Nicole Scherzinger for Misguided...

Have you seen the collabo?
Here's my picks...

Plunge Neck Cut Out Midi Dress

Plunge Neck Cut Out Midi Dress in Black

Fishnet Racer Crop Top

Midi Skirt with Fishnet Hem Detail

Racer Neck Jumpsuit with Fishnet Detail

Midi Dress with Fishnet Racer Neck

My Verdict: Praiseworthy. This collection looks HAWT!!! I would expect no less from Nicole. Although without seeing this in person, and trying it on I can't vouch for the quality of fabric or fit. And not everyone has the killer body Nicole has, but if it can tuck and shape and lift in all the right places I say this is a steal! 

Readers are you picking up anything from the collection? If you have please share your thoughts!

Zara Spring Wish List...

While recently surfing the net I spotted a few pieces on Zara's website...

Printed Pleated Skirt

Knit Sweater with Ribbons

Top with Open Back

Sequined Sweater

Crop top with Chain

Crewneck Coat

Multicolor Woven Fabric Jacket

Love all these pieces! I think Zara hit it outta the park this season! Way to go Zara! Readers are you picking up at pieces from Zara's Spring collection?

Aritzia and Sephora Boxing Day 2013 Finds...

I managed to get up bright and early for Sephora and shopped 2 days at Aritzia(24 & 27)...

From Aritzia:

Wilfred Honore Cardigan  (this reminds me of Alaia, so I had to get it)

Mackage Kenya Jacket

And the Beekman Sweater and Upton Dress mentioned here...

For Sephora:

As you can see I purchased this at 6:50 am, half asleep doesn't help so I missed adding the promo codes for either 20% off on sale EXTRA20 or getting the free Benefit Deluxe Stay Don't Stray (use code STAYDSTRAY)... I'm tempted to make another order just to get this as I love the primer, I just never use the full size fast enough.

Will update once the package arrives...

Readers did you have any luck with boxing day finds? 

PARTY SKIRTS...

It's finally mine!

The hardest choice was the sizing!

Seen here is the XS.

Black top Club Monaco (old)

Shoes Christian Louboutin (old, but still available)

Oxblood size SM

I purchased the SM, came home and decided the XS looked better on and returned for the XS....

I'm still undecided...

Measurements:

XS 26 1/2" waist 17" length

Sm 27 1/4" waist 17 1/4" length

* Readers would you go with the size that feels more comfortable or suffer and go with the size that looks better?

* purchased mine from Rebecca Bree
