Wish List: YSL Arty Ring


Yves Saint Laurent was founded in 1962 and is now under the direction of Stefano Pilati. Every season the iconic French label releases a piece that gains both recognition and loyal fans ensuring that YSL shows up everywhere; the newest item to do this, gaining as much recognition as the Tribute heels, are the striking cocktail rings.

Grand enough to wear on their own or stack, the YSL arty ring comes in both glass and enamel, but chances are you'll take your pick based on the vibrant colour. One perfect for every season.

Wish List: Archive Jewelry


If you haven't already guessed I'm pretty big on accessories and much like Olivia Palermo I have a soft spot for jewelry, I covet her job at Elle. Whenever I come across a spread in a magazine and something catches my eye I immediately become obsessed and go on a search for the piece, so is the case with a certain necklace spotted about a month ago.

May I present: Archive Jewelry, the creation of twins Nicole and Amber Sutton. At first glance its obvious that the pieces are works of art, each one as unique as the girl they are meant to be worn by, but it is the list of materials that make you take a second look at the line.

The girls took a literal interpretation of "one person's trash is another's treasure" and decided to use,
"repurposed architectural pieces, curios & found objects mixed with eco-friendly brass castings, base metal chains and chic crystal strands reminiscent of paste jewelry of a bygone era."
Each piece has history and after the girls take it to their LA studio and turn it into something new it then takes on a completely different meaning for someone else.

1. Archive Jewelry Vintage address number bracelet, $67
2. Archive Jewelry Queen stone chain, $130
3. Archive Jewelry Arrow necklace, $58
4. Archive Jewelry "Buona fortuna" 4-leaf clover necklace, $72

Wish List: Dsquared2 Shoes


Dean and Dan Caten the Toronto-native masterminds behind Dsquared2 have been creative directors of Ports 1961, designed the lower-end leisure brand Tabi International, designed for the houses of Gianni Versace and Diesel, and finally branched out on their own with the help of Diesel.

The identical twin brothers have gained recognition as celebrity favorites as well as been recognized for their contributions to fashion. The duo won the 2003 GQ Men of the Year Breakout Design Award, the 2006 Golden Needle Award, and received a star on Canada's Walk of Fame in 2009.

After seeing this pair of heels from their Spring/Summer 2010 collection I did some research and needless to say, I'm grateful that they began to design for women.

Wish List: Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany's by Celebrity Vault


ICON: Audrey Hepburn

You know the movie well, you've seen a million posters, but absolutely no other picture comes even close to this one of the iconic actress.

The 16" x 20" print features Audrey Hepburn in her memorable role as Holly Golightly in "Breakfast at Tiffany's." Bud Fraker captured the star and now the print is for sale. Fraker was known to photograph all of the old-Hollywood stars.
