Burberry Prorsum 2011

Tuesday, I went to Bloor St. and went to Burberry... and tried on the most amazing 130 mm Patent Pointed Toe Pumps with a spiked Trench. 

Man, the outfit added up to let's say... almost 5000$. It's sad eh? 

Anyway, I've been loving all the spikes and straps and leather of Burberry Prorsum 2011.

It's raining... (still better then snow, no?)

March.
Aaaark I'm dying here. I want- no I need heat.


So I was getting dresses this morning (crappy weather + massive headache= black's easy for non-inspired Anna) and realized that my outfit was fine but lacking colour. (Blue, I think... )


Anyway, I'm now hunting a big blue clutch down like an eagle, (must get ready for NYC in Easteeeer!)

I'm wearing a vintage fur collar

Not that you can tell but I'm also wearing an H&M top and sweater

These are some pictures from another rainy saturday...

But I've ordered a few things from Asos that I hope will arrive before New York!

Get out your spring list babe.

OK- so a few of you have been asking me what I'm thinking about for this spring.
Listen to this- loose, flare pants (sorry Rach), bright colors, prints and a lot of crisp white. I'm thinking a bunch of droopy hats, Ray Bans, wedges (Miu Miu and Jeffrey Campbell especially) and some capes, shawls and blanket/wraps. And most definitely turbans. I know that it's a lot, but dare I say... minimalist..?

Singles awareness day. Call 1-800SINGLES to donate.

Valentine's day.
 A day dreaded by singles who are forced to smile when they pass by the couples and pretend they don't want to strangle them. 


Camera's charging, but even if it wasn't, a jacket of red roses is damn appropriate for Valentine's day, it doesn't go with the rest of the article.

Alright, let me post a few pictures from a shoot I did not too long ago with friends. The theme was 'Russian Ballet'. Man, I could never do enough Russian Ballet shoots (some more in the snow, but that's for later.)

Nebula obsession.

OK, OK, OK...


I know what you're thinking... Nebula was cool when Christopher Kane had the stars all splattered over his designs in his ss10 collection. FORGIVE ME, but I still love Nebula. I was casually online and then I remembered his clothes, but god- his name!, it took me ages to find him, and a few minutes to find the price of his clothing. Man, I could never afford a measly tee let alone what I want most... a dress. *sigh*


Well! I didn't let that let me down, and for another hour I frantically searched for a way to somehow dye (I'm not really that dumb- just tired.) a fabric nebula. And then I stumbled upon a website where a woman had made a nebula dress herself! Like with fabric and all!


I have decided that the nebula dress shall be my project and with the help of a friend's mom (who, I hope will agree to embark upon this amazing journey toward my Nebula dress) who knows how to sow, I will one day wear that Nebula dress.


Next weekend I'll buy my fabric and find a pattern! I'll keep you posted!


*and just so you don't feel like you wasted your time on hearing my story, here's nebula, just in case you're living under a rock.*
