At The Room: When Tommy Met Anna

The amazing and inimitable Anna Della Russo was in town last week
for an appearance with Tommy Ton at The Room, which features a
retrospective called When Tommy Met Anna. The exhibit includes a
collection of stunning photographs of Anna shot by Tommy Ton over
the last four years. The pictures themselves are amazing, but the
true star is definitely Anna. With over ten (yes, 10!) wardrobe
changes in two (yes, 2!) days, Anna really kept Toronto on its toes.

Here a couple of pictures from the autograph signing.

Anna is beyond gorgeous in person and Tommy might be the nicest person I've ever met.

Fascinating.

I would highly recommend taking the time to watch this profile on the life of Anna Wintour in its entirety.

This week is SO busy with school, not to mention moving into the new apartment, and looking for a job. New posts coming soon, promise!

So glad it's finally Friday! I've had a busy week between school and running around the city. Yesterday, I had the privilege of visiting Hermes' Bloor Street store to watch an artisan from Paris hand sew a gorgeous cranberry red Constance bag. Unfortunately, we weren't allowed to take many photos (understandably) so all I have is this grainy Blackberry pic. Ah well. The experience was one in a million. I can't imagine the skill and precision it takes to create one of these bags, not to mention the time. The Constance bag takes 15 hours to produce from start to finish. The artisan, when asked what she does if she makes a mistake, replied, "We don't make mistakes".



Now I've gotta dash or I'll be late to my exam. Have a great weekend!

Style Profile: Caroline Seiber

I haven't done one of these posts in a while, have I?

Lately, I've developed a serious obsession with the stylist Caroline Seiber. She popped up all over fashion week this season and was dressed flawlessly at every show. I love her personal style. She's got that trendy/edgy thing happening while at the same time manages to stay totally classic. Also, she has perfect hair. Don't you just hate love girls with perfect hair?

Line Knitwear F/W 2011

Arguably the strongest showing at LGFW.

I saw the Line Knitwear show at 9:30 on Friday and again, for the encore
show, at 10:30. Yep, it was that good. The collection was very 70's
inspired bohemian with lots and lots of layering happening. As to be
expected at Line, the star of the show was the intricate knits in varying
styles, colours and textures. I loved the maxi and calf length skirts,
the turban-inspired head wear, the perfectly styled accessories, and that
gorgeous rusty pink colour.

Oh, and those boots? Without a doubt my #1 coveted piece from any show at
LGFW. I know, I know, boots aren't technically clothes but come on, this
blog is called livesinheels. What more do you want from me?

ps. Like my ALK post, this one is very image heavy. There are just so
many amazing looks that I had a really hard time narrowing it down.

That's a wrap!
