Here are some selected shots from the Wildfox Spring 2010 line. The photo shoot is off the wall. School starts tomorrow and I'm determined to have the best year of my life, to sum up the best summer of my life. Can we say high expectations?

Do y'all have any back-to-school must-haves? I recently bought white Docs and a very unpractical (for fall) Opening Ceremony electric blue onesie.

The Olsen girls were in my hometown of Toronto, at Holt Renfrew, promoting Elizabeth & James. They even posed with Toronto's own Jeanne Beker, of Fashion Television and Canada's Next Top Model. I'm thinking Ashley's outfit > Mary Kate's outfit. Source: Faded Youth Blog.

I'm back to Toronto after a month in Jamaica. It's sad, but I missed my soy lattes from Starbucks. Haha, oh boy. I'm such a city girl and I really realized it this summer. Source: Olsens Anonymous.

My classic pair of Hunter rain boots just don't do it for me anymore. These are limited edition "Festival" lace-up wellingtons. My lord. A trillion times better than the Jimmy Choo collaboration with Hunter, in my opinion. Source: Net-A-Porter.

Kova & T "Sophia" lace bodysuit. I can't tell you how much I love this. I actually have a full-length lace body suit but it's a tank top so I mostly use it as leggings. I love how this one comes with a built-in bandeau. Sexy and functional. It seems those two words are rarely used in the same sentence. Source: Net-A-Porter.

Even though my hometown of Toronto is only just starting to feel the heat of summer, it won't be long before we all start putting our creative minds to the test for transition dressing to Fall. Model Miranda Kerr looks ready for cooler weather in her maxi dress, black flats, leopard-print scarf and leather jacket. Source: Just Jared.

With a last name like Guinness and an ex-husband named Niarchos, I have two words for you about this heiress: rich bitch.

I always like to get style inspirations in sometimes peculiar places, like say, this dame who, is in her forties and old enough to be my mom. Daphne Guinness has a passion for expensive clothes, and armour-styled clothing is one of her top obsessions. I've noticed that she often makes her outfits pop with bursts of colour in her shoes. She dresses to get attention and she's damn good at it. Pretty much, she’s haute couture to the bone. I’ll never be as glam as her, but hey, who says I can’t try?
