Bonjour!

Just a headsup for you guys.

We are having a HUGE black Friday Sale that will begin at 12:00 a.m. (eastern time zone)the morning of Friday November 27th, 2009 and will end at 12:00 a.m on the morning of Saturday November 28th, 2009.

During this time the whole shop will be on SALE for 50% off. All you need to do is convo us with the phrase "paint it black" and the item you are interested in and we will change the price to the 1/2 off discount.

The catch is you have to be fast because we will not be reserving or holding any items during this event.

It is first come first serve! Best of luck to all of you in getting your special holiday deal!

Pink Tartan







Canadian designer Pink Tartan...YUMMY!



Lightening up this look...



I lke the above look from the Satorialist...I really do, but I tweaked it a bit. I used a lighter colour pallet which I think is a nice crisp fresh take on fall winter.

I also went with a closed toe shoe, cause cold wet toes are no fun!
Lastly, I took the tone of the original purse and translated it into the heel.
