Long and Flowy…a fall trend.

Posted in Uncategorized by upc boutique on October 13, 2010

Long, overized, assymetrical – we’re loving it all right now!!  Especially pieces that can be dressed up or down yet have that ability to change your entire outfit with one swing of the fabric.


What can’t be forgotten is that a piece does not necessarily have to be form fitting to be flattering.  It is ultimately all about the way you wear it and this is exactly what makes each of these pieces so special.  Pairing them with some extra long leggings makes the outfit perfect for this season and we always recommend an accessory or two…

 

I must also temper this post with the fact that I am absolutely in love with the colour navy for this season – especially when paired with something black.   

Heat Wave.

Honestly, I feel like every step I take lately I’m melting away.  I thought it would be fitting to recommend some options that I would characterize as ‘less is more’…

Two of my favourite options right now for the heat.

The shin printed tank is unbelievably lightweight and is PERFECT for a summer day.  It hangs off the body in the way that doesn’t absorb the heat like a fitted tank and as you can see this is a true case of less is more.

Shin Printed Tank

As you are aware by now I LOVE dresses (of any kind really), but because it’s so damn hot out I wanted to give you my recommendation for the perfect keep you cool dress.  Yes I know it’s black but ladies, trust me when I say this you will not REGRET wearing this on a day like today.

Summer is here.

Posted in Fashion by upc boutique on June 2, 2010

I’ve been waiting patiently for the summer months to come.  Every day I look into my closet hoping and praying that today will be the day that I can grab my shorts jump on my bike and head down to trinity bellwoods and lay in the sun.  And I can officially say that that time is HERE.

One of my most absolute favourite things for summer are dresses.  I love them.  I feel as though everyone and when I say everyone I mean both men and women are happier in dresses!  I’m convinced that it is the exact medicine that Toronto needs.  I was walking through Yorkville yesterday and every woman I saw in a dress just looked happy, comfortable and relaxed and at this point I could officially say summer was here.

So here are some of my recommendations for a summer dress.  One caveat, I love white and I love patterns!

Velour Check Dress

Shin Multi Dress

These are BY FAR my favourites in store right now.  I absolutely love the length of the Margarita dress and the playfulness of the Velour dress.  Also, you should know by now that  EVERYONE needs a least ONE white dress in their wardrobe…
