Fashionista 514 in Hawaii Outfit Post – I heart Bebe!!!
Soooo… I must say that I ABSOLUTELY ADORE HAWAII AND NEVER EVER WANT TO COME HOME… buuuuuut… I am a true 514er at heart and could never really mean it (or could I???). Today’s find… Bebe! Now I know this is old news to the rest of the world, but to us Montrealers, Bebe is yet another great store (just like Victoria’s Secret and Bath & Body Works to name a few) that we are quite unlucky to not have at our fingertips. So for those of you who have access to this store and just take it for granted – give it another chance… I found some great treats 
Hittin‘ up the Hawaiian store… 514 style…
…The perfect dress for dinner dates…
…The world is my catwalk… can’t wait to go out dancing in this number!
Jewelled brooch appliques is where I’m at!
… and so a shoe love affair began… as if I’m not tall enough naturally at five foot ten!
These jeans have pleather over the knee boot material built in! Genius! Can’t wait to pair these with my Coach booties!!!
I’m a girl who just loves her skinnies with her platform pumps 
Satin finish jean “look alikes“. I’m convinced!
Why o why am I so attracted to pleather??? Yummmm… next post… SURFS UP!
Fashionista Finds – Friday Fun ;)
Alright… here are a few of the things that I discovered today…
First up… Bubble Tea! Today I discovered that there are other options other than just the tapioca bubbles that usually make up the classic recipe… you can add mango stars for god’s sake!!! What the eff! You know the world is getting better when you can drink star shaped mango fruit with fresh peach or watermelon/green tea juice… mmmmm mmmmm good!!!
Oh lookie what I found… an Ed Hardy motor home!!! If this isn’t the coolest shiznack EVER than I don’t know what is… this mobile home is badass ;p
The John Varvatos store inside Holts!!! New and amazing! I love the interior of this little section within the store… the old record sleeve framed artwork and the simplisticly cool peices that is John Varvatos… if you haven’t already seen Varvatos collaboration with converse, I sincerely suggest you check it out here 
Alright… passed by the Louboutin store and quite honestly… fell in love. These shoes have been haunting me since the two of us looked each other in the eye and knew we were meant for each other (the cheetah print ones)… I will be heading back tomorrow to try them if I feel like being especially cruel to my bank account…
This shop is a slice of heaven… Louboutin, Authentic French perfumes and chandelles and Italian fashion and ballet flats (Repetto below)… what is not to love???
If you get a chance to come to Montreal… please do check out de la Montagne street… It is LACED with goodies like these
Have a beautiful weekend everyone

We are blessed here to have some of the most amazing europeen coffee here in the 514… I loooove my lattes! Take that Starbucks!
Perfectly blended martinis from W Hotel Lounge…. mmmm… a la rose is an all time fave… served with a fresh orchid on the side of the glass Luxe.
Holt Renfrew Department Store and Blogger appreciation! Celebrating Garance Dore, Bryan Boy and Sea of Shoes! WoW… famous bloggies!!!
Breakfast at Tiffany’s… the Oceane dish is probably my all time favorite version of Eggs Benedict… mmmmm…
Vanilla Smack Cupcakes with colored frosting from Cho’cola Bakery on Monkland Street… mmmmm…. *drool*
They make some other great flavors like s’mores, boston cream, ginger orange, etc… DELECTABLE TREATS!
The freshest local ice cream from Quebec… Bilboquet! My favorite flavour… Cacaophonie… chocolate ice cream, white chocolate chunks with fudge, brownies and pecans… mmmmmm (for a lighter choice, the raspberry frozen yogurt above is a great tangy alternative).Blog Adoration – Sea Of Shoes
Okay, so I know that I am TOTALLY the last one to know… however I just stumbled upon the marvelously enchanting “Sea Of Shoes” blog and am in a state of complete envy
… nothing malicious… I play fair…
The absolutely GORGEOUS Jane Aldridge and her mom are tried tested and true FASHIONISTAS! If I may say so myself… both of their styles are utterly impeccable! I am not the only one to notice either… Sea of Shoes has an insane following from all around the world and has been featured in Teen Vogue, recognized by Kanye West and Holt Renfrew department stores (my faaaave), and Urban Outfitters even collaborated with Miss Jane to design a collection of shoes inspired by her eccentric and sophisticated style!
Miss Jane’s trendy mama (above)
Jane claims that her fashion identity is based upon her love and collection of shoes… beautiful, wearable works of art Rockin‘ out in Anne Demeuleester laced bootie sandals, BalenciagaGivenchy zipper open toe booties, and YSL caged sandals… patent platforms, well… THAT is definitely living, functional ART!
Jane and her mom have just returned from an exciting Tokyo adventure – and let me just say this: The posts are TO DIE FOR! Capturing the very allure, culture and experiences of Tokyo… she transforms her vacation into a magical and enchanting endeavor… Oh, and of course mingles with the stylin‘ locals
The mother-daughter duo seem to have quite complimentary styles and lend and borrow pieces from each other – always making the look their own… effortless… casual… trendy but avant-garde… they remain ahead of the curb in every sense and leave us waiting to see what they will snatch up next…
The greatest thing about her blog in my opinion is that she captures not only her personal fashion loves, but also her exquisite lifestyle in larger than life professionally presented pics… She gives a full visual representation of everything beautiful… everything interesting.
God DAMN I am in love with these YSL sandals…****drool****
Whoever says fashion is only for the vain, OBVIOUSLY never possessed a pair of these conversation-starter “stick-heel” strappy sandals… highly intellectual…
Amongst the beautiful eye candy heels, Jane mixes and matches thrift shop finds with current season trends and pairs them with some sick “in your face” accessories that through their exotic allure bring out the regal look she carries off oh-so-well.
How funky fresh is this look… like seriously… could this girl get any cooler….? Could she…???… nah!!! Didn’t think so!
Ummmmm…. MAJOR girl crush brewing here…
She is a master mix-ologist!!! Mixing beautiful unseeming pieces together to create alarming and demurely fascinating looks and moods… all in a days work
OMG… when I saw her Chanel booties I almost DIED!!!
A fearless modern fashion ICON who is not afraid to take risks to reap the rewards… of personal creative growth… LOVE HER!Please check her out… Impossible to regret!
