I want: To apologize

I won't be posting for 2 weeks as I am off to travel and ignore all forms of electronic device... May be hard, wish me luck. I will blog to you all on May 5th xoxox LO

I want: ADAM

Hey Adam.. where did you come from.. Ooooh Oscar de la Renta, that would make sense. I've been loving you for longer than I even knew.

Adam Lippes ladies and gents.. Yeah so he's been around with his own line ADAM since 2004 (after spending a number of years as the creative director at 'OdlR' [he was the youngest ever at only 26]), but I never really knew until now.

Silk georgette mini dresses and Jumpers, and sequins a plenty. I'm a fan, check him out.

I want: To fall asleep and wake up with this store as my closet..

V.. for Violet.. not just the colour (I adore) but the exquisite boutique just south of Meinhardts on South Granville street. This adorable, beautiful and fashion forward shop has officially become my favorite.

As you may or may not know already I am hopelessly infatuated with luxurious fabrics, flattering cuts, and beautiful colours. All and more was found when I stepped into the doors at Violet Boutique. Dresses a plenty, a must visit for the girl who adores soft feminine looks.

What I love most about this store are the lines that they carry: QUAIL and Crispin & Basilio are just two in a stunning variety.

Any questions? Just ask Leah, she is incredibly stylish, knowledgeable and very helpful.

I want: Alexander Wang and Loeffler Randall

Apres a delicious lunch of Sandwiches, Soup and too much coffee at Cafe Barney with one of the best people I know, we took a casual stroll up South Granville. We paused in front of Misch and he insisted I try on the exquisite Vanessa Bruno dress hanging in the window. It was beautiful, but a little revealing for me...
Then I saw it.. An incredibly gorgeous silk crepe Alexander Wang dress which I paired ever so strategically with the perforated cut out shooties by Loeffler Randall... ooooh woe is me... anyone have $1700 to spare?

A girl can dream.. No?

I want: you to know this...

Coachella is upon us.
I'm staying here with my good friends from Time SupperClub in Montreal and they are still offering a couple rooms for VIPs. The packages are amazing and the style factor is off the Hook... When it comes to Music loves Fashion no other crew does it better..


Watch out Palm Springs you're about to be dosed once again..

I want: To mention a cute little Patio

Yesterday I had lunch with my Dad, Dad's GF, Brother, Bro-in Law, Nephew and Sister at Burgoo on Main and 15th. It looks like someone grabbed a cozy chalet out of the Adirondacks and dumped it right in the middle of Urban sprawl. I've been to the other locations but this one is definitely special... mostly because of its "awesome for people watching" patio.

Try the Sprung Salad with the Chicken and Corn Chowder.. Yum.

I want: Wrist decoration

Lately I love nothing more than the sound of my bangles clanking together as I lift a cerveza to my face whilst enjoying the gorgeous Vancouver sunshine on a patio.

Left to Right: Zoe and Morgan bangles and Monica Vinader cuff.. Oh my my..

I want: James Verbicky

James.. James... Impeccable talent encapsulated in a 6 foot something blond haired tattooed armed man. I can safely say I've been a fan for over 5 years. Since that time, his work has moved from gorgeous figurative paintings to full blown mixed media resin engulfed abstract heaven.

I have the blue one at left, "Shelter", on loan ;) But want to fill my house full of it all. You should too. It makes me want to shop for patent leather butter yellow shoes.. Weird I know.. There's not much out there that doesn't inspire me to shop for shoes.

The inspiration for his most recent collection "CONTINUUM" came from work he was commissioned to do on one of the Frank Gehry Spheres in the Hollywood Bowl.. Since that time he's been popping up all over, most notable was this past December when he was asked to show at The Louvre in Paris.

Never one to disappoint, I patiently await his new collection which I'm sure will inspire all kinds of shopping sprees.

I want: To reminisce about my old stomping grounds..

Ahhh Venice, what was once a violent ghetto-ish neighborhood.. is continuing it's rise as a cool, trendy, stylish, up and coming haunt. I love it. LOVED it back in my Hydrolab on Abbott Kinney days.. still loving it, thinking about it..... maybe wanting to move back.... Weird? No. So yeah, this place is for sale.. Wanna move? Let's go.

I want: A new kind of LBD

Little Black and Little Blue.. I've been interchanging the LBD with the LBD v.2 a lot so far in 2009, It's become my favorite switch up. A little Sapphire blue to brighten a black tie affair? Sounds good. I'm unbelievably stoked that this is carrying through to fall. Erdem showcased in Paris for Fall 09'... How about a little mini dress eye candy to brighten your morning? enjoy....

P.S. Please check the bright "Jackson Pollock"-esque booties with the black strapless... TO DIE FOR no?
