The Canvas Shoe is Back!

Remember when your mom used to dress you in white Keds on your first day of school? http://www.keds.com/

Well I sure do!

Keds were a very popular style of shoes, and it seems that they are back!

As I browsed the Urban Outfitters website today http://www.urbanoutfitters.com/urban/index.jsp 

I came across their amazing selection of canvas shoes which look exactly like Keds ranging in price from $10-50 in amazing colours

I personally purchased a pair of these last year in white and I love them!

Although they are not the best quality, for the amount of time you will be wearing them they do the trick!

They are so cute and great to throw on with a pair of jeans or leggings or even a casual skirt!

This is one of the reason I love the nice weather!!!

Top 5 Designer Lines for Less

As students, we are always looking to save money somewhere.

As I browsed the Glamour magazine website.. I found a great list which can apply to students who want to be fashionable, but just can't afford those designer brand names.. so I thought I would share this with you all.....

I only provided my personal favourite 5 but there are 10 on the site so check it out!

http://www.glamour.com/fashion/2009/02/top-10-designer-lines-for-less?slide=2

1. Matthew Williamson for H&M

- The line is probably more expensive than H&M's mainstream clothing but if you are looking to get something of better quality...In may this designer will hit the racks and he is loved by celebs like Sienna Miller and Kate Moss

2. I Heart Ronson for JC Penney

- Her last name is made famous by her sister DJ Sam Ronson but Charlotte Ronson is not as scandalous. She designed a great line featured in JC Penny stores which has great prices and is just for regular girls who like to be fashionable and comfy!

3. Zac Posen’s soon-to-be-unveiled bridge line

-Zac Posen is known to be an expensive designer but he has announced that he is building a lower-priced collections.. finally a student in TRUE style!!!

4. Lark & Wolff by Steven Alan and Hawks by Geren Ford

-I like this one because it can be found at one of my favourite stores, Urban Outfitters. If you haven't noticed yet, Urban is trying to incorporate some more upscale designers into their collection and this is one of them! Check them out this spring!

5. Simply Vera, Vera Wang for Kohl’s

-This is one of the most exciting ones! Now we no longer have to dream of wearing Vera Wang on our wedding day because now it can be incorporated into our everyday outfit with her new less-expensive line found in Kohl's stores. Great for the very feminine dressers!

Know of any designers who are creating lower-end collections? share with us! This is always exciting for students especially!!!

Looking for a spring jacket?

As the weather is finally getting milder, its time to start thinking about a new jacket of choice, besides our winter parkas that we hate so much.

One jacket style that I noticed alot of girls wearing out to the bars this weekend was the tuxedo blazer. Yes.. this is originally a male style but the hipsters have turned it around into a cute look for girls to throw over a dress or a pair of jeans.

I have been searching for the perfect tuxedo blazer and I think I have found it.

Obviously on my favourite store's website.. Urban Outfitters

But make sure to search the rest of the blazers on the website as they have alot more!

This is a great new jacket style.. everyone mustttt indulge in it!
