FORTE.FORTE - the Ultimate Everyday Look

Forte.Forte deliveries are huge highlights of the season for us, so many of our clients are so obsessed with it, and it is that easy-to-wear stuff that everyone really gets to wear over and over and over. Why do these Italians know us so well?

I have to say... 50/50 wool and linen blends are a real soft spot for me... all the texture with a bit of warmth for chillier days: the perfect balance for Vancouver! This oversize one-button menswear coat is unbelievable, and if you would like to purchase it, we will be interviewing you to make sure you are going to love it for ever and ever and ever... sign here, initial here. The trousers we paired with it (wool, linen and cotton blend) are amazing too... that ankle length cuffed menswear tapered silhouette that I think is so important for any Forte.Forte fan, or for anyone exploring the menswear side of their look. We love this 'tabacco' colour, and we also did them in black.

This is a great example of some of Forte.Forte's more fluid side... this crepe blazer with contrast lapel is pretty darn incredible, whether you are dressing it up or down. In this particular case, we are layering it with a silk georgette one pocket dress and beaded belt; depending on footwear, this could very easily be a look for daytime or nighttime. I have to say, the versatility we see out of Forte.Forte makes it a really great bet for most closets.

Faliero Sarti!! More of the Fall Scarves!!

3.1 Phillip Lim!! An Amazing Fall Delivery

We have been so excited about this jacket: a very unconventional addition to a Misch buy given how choosy we are about what leather, let alone fur, comes through our doors. This lamb shearling and leather combo jacket we love back to leggings and a tunic just as much as we do with a skirt and a pretty top. Definitely a really amazing statement piece for someone looking for something as timeless as it is showstopping.

This is a bit of a gratuitous shot perhaps... these crepe pants are a repeat silhouette that we really believe in from Mr. Lim. Anna de Courcy wears these pants religiously and always make them look amazing - and she usually dresses them down, god bless her. The gorgeous silk top with attached fringe scarf is actually from the Joseph delivery, but we thought the tuxedo reference could really give James Bond a run for his money.

It's no secret that we are completely in love with cobalt blue accents, and they suit almost everyone's colour palette in Fall/Winter. This merino wool sweater dress is a total knockout for daytime, layered with everything from a nude scarf to a leather bomber jacket.

This wool jacket is pretty fabulous, but without sacrificing any of the advantages of a classic piece. The lapel leads around to a square in the back, and this neck detail scarf zips in and out.

Swing-cut dresses are a weakness of mine this time of year, especially ones that look this good and are this versatile. To work, on the weekend... pairs back to everything you need it to, and really, really comfortable! This is definitely one of those purchases that end up paying for themselves in the end.

This silk and wool jersey combo t-shirt dress we love as an easy layering piece under blazers, cardigans or on it's own with a scarf. There is also a solid black version in a top.

This is a dressier version of the grey from pre-fall, and with a little more splash! A cream silk underlayer with black merino pullover, this 2-part dress could get some excellent mileage for the girl who needs her outfit to take her from day to night.

ISABEL MARANT: Second Fall 2011 Delivery!!

Leopard print!! Isabel is definitely the one to do a leopard print... she makes it look totally fresh and sexy and French.

The tweed jacket is a timeless Isabel basic, and I love it with just about everything. A zip front closure with a cowl neck, which also looks amazing worn open, as you can see! Finding the perfect cotton pant with attitude can take a whole season, we love this khaki version with the tie belt.

All these prints are so great!! This silk tie front skirt is no exception.

Linen tees are a wardrobe requirement. If you didn't know, now you do.

A very oversize navy wool peacoat, a fabulous Isabel classic for Fall.

Talk about amazing silk prints: the Navajo print cannot be ignored, not just because it was such a strong theme of this collection, but because it's awesome.

Unfortunately it's really hard to get all the detail on this amazing top to show properly in the photo... because this is one of those Isabel tops you'll easily wear for years and years and years and everyone will be all like "wow, where is that from?", but when you bought it you were just like 'oh ya, that's cool'.

So, you know how into the whole leather legging this we are this year... well, this is our suede version. It has amazing leather trim detail, and feels like (*&$@% on.

Aurelie Bidermann: the latest shipment

This gold plated/braided thread bracelet looks amazing alone or layered: a few little leather bracelets, a Stephanie Jewels bracelet and this? You're set for day or night.

Vintage lace - hand dipped - sterling silver on the left - 18 k gold on the right. UNBELIEVABLE ON.

If you have tried these, you know how amazing they are! We all love ours so much we thought we needed a few more...

Gold or Silver?!?! Big girl problems!!!!

More Denis Colomb Scarves!!

The latest Denis Colomb shipment is gorgeous, and totally different than any of our other scarf deliveries yet this year!

This style, the "Kumo Nomad", is a very large, very light, fine gauge 100% cashmere beauty, and comes in the three colours below, as well as red. This is a really wonderful weight for year-round wear.

The "Annapurna Akita" in the camel/black plaid combo is a signature look for Denis Colomb: he is definitely known for his plaids. In 100% cashmere also, it could very easily be your next favourite fall/winter scarf.

The "Ring Shawl" is a classic size in a rectangle shape, also 100% cashmere, but featuring a slightly looser weave - the cashmere is hand spun!

The "Ring Shawl" is available in 6 colours: the two reds above, the cobalt, magenta, and eggplant here, and also in black!
