Can anybody say wow? WOW! I absolutely love everything. The individual pieces and the way everything was put together. Everything screams city chic and wear me now! Maybe the latter is just in my head. Regardless, this collection rocks!

I am heading over to a store location to browse the items.

Super excited!

P.S Some of the pieces are labeled as “coming soon” on the website. I hope they’re there by the time I trek to a Dynamite location.

Casual Weekends

The white blazer and denim shorts combo is my favourite. The denim jumpsuit is quite cute too!

Dressy @ Work

The second and third looks are spot on and perfect for the office. I love the button detail on the pencil skirt. I like the violet and red combo and the green tank will look fabulous with a sharp, black blazer.

Date Night

I want the white dress. If it looks as good in the store this item will sell like hotcakes. I love the embellishment. The jacket and belt combo is so chic and the black and white outfit will look fantastic with flats or dressy sneakers. Pairing it with heels might be over-kill.

I love dressing up for New Years because I like the idea of combining understated sparkle and glamour. Instead of competing with the glittery and fun outfits, I choose the demure route mixed with an element of surprise. It could be something as simple as combining a deliciously rich red lipstick or a colourful clip with the classic little black dress or wearing a sparkly party dress but keeping hair and make up simple and casual.

This year I am obsessed with opera length gloves. I am deciding between a satin red dress or a little black dress. I think that the gloves will suit both but I also want to wear both dresses. Maybe a costume change halfway?

Here are some of my picks for possible New Year’s Eve looks:

Sequin Dress from Dynamite $39.99

Flirty Frilly Dress from Jacob

White Dress from Tristan

Ruffled Cropped Cardigan from Forever 21 Canada $21.80

Mesh with Tulle Dress from Le Chateau 169.95

Peep Toe Sequin Shoes fron Spring Shoes $44.99

Set of Bangle Bracelets from Aldo Canada SALE $9.79

I was browsing through the Dynamite website and I found a lot of things that I want to buy. I think that Dynamite is perfect for someone who is looking for affordable, chic and modern clothes that can be worn in the office, to parties and on the weekend. I LOVE their clothes.

I found a few sparkly accessories that is perfect for someone who likes glam and girly things:

Rhinestone Mirror Case – $9.90

Rhinestone Card Holder -$9.90

Rhinestone Lipstick Pen – $5.90 {Isn’t this fabulous? I am so buying this!}

Holiday Dressing

I’ve started browsing online for ideas on what to wear to an office holiday party in December. I don’t mean to sound like a Miz Bah-Humbug but I am quite disappointed with what I’ve seen so far. Nothing really stands out this year from the major Canadian retailers. Maybe I am not looking in the right places? However, all is not loss because I found a few things that I sort-of liked.

These two tops from Smart Set will go well with a basic pencil skirt (or black pants) and add some glamour to a pant suit.

Satin Halter $35.00

Ruffle Racer Back Top from Smart Set SALE $25

I guess the color violet is still pretty big.  I wanted to wear something blue to the party but I can’t find anything decent.  The pleated dress can do without the strap (it takes away from the pleats) and the second dress is quite lovely.

Pleated one shoulder dress from Smart Set $55

Satin Dress from Dynamite $39.90

The sequin trend is still in full swing. I like this dress because it adds a little something to a basic black dress. For some reason it reminds me of something that Kim Basinger might have worn in the late 80’s and early 90’s.  Because the dress is somewhat flashy, I’d keep the entire look monochromatic with smokey eyes and nude lips. If I had blonde hair, I would so wear this dress.

Sequin Dress from Dynamite $39.90
