Happy Friday darlings. 

This past week has been full of a few highs and lows, but I'm thrilled to be embarking on a new venture next week. 

Have a splendid weekend.

It's one of those rainy, chilly days here in Toronto. However, the store windows are starting to bloom with floral and vibrant-coloured clothing, making me lust for spring.

Needless to say, the best way to shake off the winter blues is with a few good parties. It's awards, and actually, birthday season as well, so I'm finding that I need a few good outfits each weekend that can work between soirees.


I've been loving the carefree and glamourous aesthetic of the 1970's over the past year, and am currently on the hunt for some disco-inspired partywear. Bianca Jagger has been, and I think will always been one of my greatest style inspirations from the era. She really is the epitome of glamour in the Studio 54 heyday.

You know I'm always the advocate for the jumpsuit, but I'm hoping to expand out to high-waisted pants, towering shoes, and Studio 54-worthy curled hair.

This editorial by Steve Madden shoes has captured this look perfectly. Bring on the platforms man.

The first was the September Issue. The documentary about photographer Bill Cunningham came next.

Ladies and gents, I think we have this year's next fashion film/documentary about Diana Vreeland, called, Diana Vreeland, the Eye has to Travel.

The fashion editor worked for both  Harper's Bazaar and Vogue, and challenged quite a few of the norms of fashion...beyond clothing that is. Fashion throughout the 1960's and 70's was changing into the glamorous photographs we see of the time today - musicians, artists, dancers, painters, et cetera all indulging in their craft and glossing it in magazines. 

"She made it okay for women to be outlandish and extraordinary,"says Angelica Huston in the movie trailer. 

As someone who tries to live their life opposed to the typical, I am quite excited to see this film and the birth of where so many things that inspire not only my wardrobe, but my life come from.

In Diana Vreeland we trust.

Check out the trailer below. When it gets to Toronto, I'll be first in line with my highest of heels on.
