YYZ Living Magazine stormed Nyood this month to launch it’s new magazine. For those who don’t know, YYZ Living Magazine covers the stylish topics of art, fashion and culture in Toronto.

With the cool weather here, animal skin was the look of the night, with fur coats and vests, leather dresses and lots of leopard print. Editor in Chief Annie Lam Shivani Kumar rocked leopard stilettos with her leather panel dress, perhaps channeling the tone of the evening for the other fashionable guests while managing editor Annie Lam donned a  silvery python print dress and black heels with silver spikes.

The weather’s been sooooo beautiful lately but seeing as it is fall, it is bound to get chilly without warning very soon!

I found my plaid cape two years at Goodwill or something and most of the bloggers pictured here were wearing their plaid capes last year,  but since we’ve recently started seeing good ol’ celebs sportin’ capes just lately, it will likely be at your local Forever 21/Urban Outfitters/Anthropologie in no time.

This is sort of what I’ll look like this fall in my blue cape

Next for fall….ponchos…

Everybody (back) in denim.

I personally think this whole denim trend is re-emerging a little early. Jean jackets, vests and head to toe denim… Therefore, I give it about 2-3 years to hit its max.

In the meantime, looks from our Canadian friends at Fidelity…

I love Joe. I have to admit that I rarely find things for myself except the occasional belt or pair of gloves as I’m not really into that simple ‘club monaco-y’ style. However, I do love the pickings and love love the kids stuff.

If you don’t know by now, Joe Fresh can be found in Loblaws Superstores, usually right in the middle between the organics and freezer aisle…what a great way to shop!

(love the styling…great everyday, easy looks…)
