The Best Fashion Blogs

If you read my blog on regular basis, you know that when it comes to jewelry, my motto is the more the merrier! A big fan of jewelry in general, I love the way it transforms even the simplest of outfits into polished and sophisticated ensembles and adds that perfect touch of glamour to any night-time look! This statement rings especially true as we head into Holiday season.  You know me, regardless of occasion, I like clean, tailored fuss-free pieces and dressier outfits are no exception. So today, I wanted to talk a little bit about my all-time favorite Holiday look, i.e. a sharp pant suit paired with lots of layered jewels. Edgy, sophisticated and glamorous, I love this pairing because it works for just about any Holiday occasion imaginable. Today's version of the look is really a combination of my all current favorites. Love this fitted pantsuit for it's understated sexiness and beautiful detailing! Perfectly tailored, clean and polished, I adore the way it looks with layere...

Back in my favorite not-so-basic basics:) You know me, I'm a sucker for details! Never a fan of anything plain, I always look for those special little extras that add a bit of charm and character, and make everyday favorites even more special. These velvet, high-rise, button-front jeans are my favorite discovery as of late!  I actually got them to wear to a Holiday party coming up next week, but as usual, just couldn't resist  breaking them out a bit early:) Completely and totally obsessed with everything about them from fit and super comfy, stretchy fabric to exposed button detailing on the front! Oh, and the mini front pockets... don't get me started on those! Just too cute for words! Obviously they pair beautifully with a nice, cozy sweater, yet they look just as good dressed up with a matching velvet blazer and a pair of heels for a night out or a Holiday party for example! You know me, I love finding those items that transition from day to night with ease and pair with...

Wearing my favorite pair of boots of all time! A huge fan of Stuart Weitzman Highland boots in general, something about this particular shade of burgundy just makes this style pop even more! So good with my favorite black and white combos, yet equally stunning paired with creams, caramels and blues! Love that!

I think I briefly mentioned the reason why I named this site VivaLuxury... You see, the word "luxury" always had a very particular meaning to me. To me, luxury isn't something expensive or self-indulgent, but rather something that feels good and makes you feel good. Luxury is that perfect pair of jeans that makes you look and feel like a million bucks or a sweater so cozy, you wear it over and over again yet feel equally excited every time you put it on! Today's look is a combination of my favorite little luxuries at the moment! Every piece, starting from these skinny leather pants to the cozy pink cardigan, is a favorite in every respect! Love, love, love everything about them, from fit to look and everything in between! What about you guys, what does luxury mean to you?

Ah, got to break out the first coat of the season yesterday! YAY! I know,... I know... getting this excited about outwear is a bit ridiculous and I'll be the first to admit that 10 years ago, when I was still living in Toronto, switching to fall wardrobe was nothing to write home about. Yet, when you live in LA LA land, the place of perpetual sunshine and palm trees, going from denim cut-off and flip flops to coats is very exciting indeed!:)  Aside from my general state of excitement about being out of denim shorts, what I've been giddy about lately is finding my first red coat of the season! The color red and I have a special relationship, red, white and black is kinda my thing period! Sure, I have other color combos I am very fond of, but this classic trio is the one that I feel most comfortable in! And so, every Fall begins with a search for a perfect red coat! This time around I got lucky! I found it very early on, though the fact I had to wait a month to wear it courtesy o...

I love fall in LA! While the temperatures definitely drop, it's warm enough to get away with bare legs yet just cool enough to start wearing sweaters! Knowing full well that this weather may not last long, I'm taking full advantage by wearing all my favorite minis and chunky sweaters! Today's look is comprised entirely of my old and new favorites! Completely obsessed with cream turtlenecks in general, what I love the most about this Joie one is the relaxed fit! Perfect for pairing with mini skirts to make them a bit more day-time appropriate yet equally cute worn with skinny jeans and say on oversized coat! Love that! What about you guys, what are you mostly excited to wear for fall?  JOIE Kajetan turtleneck sweater { also love this one & this one } | THE KOOPLES leather skirt { similar here & here } |  CELINE Medium Trotter  bag  | GIVENCHY  boots  thanks to BRUNA ROSSO |  MICHAEL KORS Bradshaw  watch  |   VITA FEDE ring ...

Good morning, everyone! Hope you're enjoying your week so far! In honor of Healthy Skin Month, I've partnered with Dove to talk about my body-care routine. But before I get into specifics, when it comes to body-care, I firmly believe that consistency is key!  Now, I haven't always been as diligent about body-care as I am now. In the past, I've let my schedule get the best of me, and let my routine slide. The result? Well, if you've been "blessed" with dry skin like I am, I'm pretty sure you know what happens when you don't take care of it properly! Basically dry, flaky skin, especially around knees and elbows! When things got really extreme, I'd resort to lotions and potions, which did provide a temporary solution, but as soon as my skin started looking better, I'd get lazy again and stop taking care of it! This went on for a number of years, until I got tired of this yo-yo skin care plan and developed a routine thanks to which I've bee...
