I’ll be adding Mink Pink to the Bicyclette lineup come October, and I couldn’t be more excited. The line is perfect, in my opinion – vintage-inspired and aware of trends, but not bound by them; young, fun and not afraid to play around with colour, pattern, texture and shape; and you couldn’t ask for a better price point.

And so, for those of you who haven’t already seen it, allow me to introduce some images from the Fall/Winter 10 collection. And don’t worry, I’ve pointed out which pieces I’ve bought for Bicyclette, so you can start compiling your wish lists!

Time for the big question – what’s your favourite MinkPink piece from this collection so far? Leave it in the comments!

Lace trim crop top. That covetable slouchy fit that's perfect for layering.

High-waisted leather shorts. Cuffed, and oh-so-vintage. Picturing them layered over tights.

Long, leopard print cardi (the perfect animal print) and striped, long sleeved tee dress.

Leather look moto leggings. I'm thinking styled with oversized layers on top.

And finally, the pièce de résistance: the structured, sequin blazer. So perfect!

My North by Northeast craziness is still in full swing (so many bands, so little time!) and I’ve been avoiding my computer  for more social engagements, my apologies. With the weather that we’ve been having and the full music roster though, can you really blame me? But after talking to my Mom earlier, I let slip that my weekly goal is to blog at least five times, at which point she informed me that my last post was on Thursday, meaning that I’ve only hit the four post mark for this week. Ooops! This one’s for you, Mom.

Like I mentioned on Thursday, there’s been a lot going on with Bicyclette in the last little while. More graphics and branding (of which I don’t want to give too much away before the site launch!), a photo shoot collaboration between Shelby and I which is finally scheduled for next week (so exciting!), and a few more lines booked for Fall/Holiday ’10. So just to pique your curiosity, here’s a sneak peak from the MinkPink Holiday collection, which I’ll be starting to stock in October! More to come soon …

Luxe basics make me happy. I believe they should be a staple in any closet, but they’re also hard to find. I’m not talking American Apparel, but something with a little more class, a little more edge, a lot more personality, and that little something extra that makes you swoon.

So with that, I am extremely excited to introduce Heather to you, a line of not-so-basic basics that I’ll be carrying for the Fall. In a range of heathered neutrals (white, black, grey), these pieces have the softest touch, most gorgeous drape and are perfectly accented with hints of sequins, silk insets and  sheer chiffon. Ah, there’s the swoon. Here’s a few images from the look book and a little teaser of what I bought for the shop …

(you can't tell here, but there's a silk panel in the back. bought in heather white)

(satin insets on the sides. perfect for layering. bought in black)

(favourite piece. not exactly your typical baseball tee. bought in black.)

(removable sequin collar. simply gorgeous. bought in dark heather grey)
