Whitney has a very unique style. She seems like a genuine person who always stays true to herself which is reflected through her clothes. Her style is eclectic of a variety of era's. She's a true vintage diva, especially when it comes to the sunglasses.

Haiti and fashion?

My thoughts are overwhelmed with Haiti.
If you have been following my blog you will know that I usually blog about fashion... so I know this is a big shift in thinking. But thinking of Haiti doesn't mean I don't still think about clothes! lol I was actually going through my closet the other day and picking out stuff to wear there, stuff to bring to donate, garage sale fundraisers etc. I also read something the other day about the women at Heartline treating each other by doing each others hair and nails to pamper themselves. So when it comes down to it, all women have something in common!

I made my first big purchase of my life yesterday, a Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ35 camera. It is an investment into what I hope will be an adventurous future. I dream of travelling around the world to remote towns and teaching women to sew bags and provide for their families. I want to document every moment and take you all along for the journey one Little Red Purse at a time. ;)

Bicycle fashion

I was reading an article in the paper recently about Bicycle Fashion. Forget the 6-speed mountain bike, pull out your mother's old school bike and take it for a ride down the city streets in your favourite dress. It's all about looking pretty and elegant. The ever growing eco friendly craze is re-enforcing the bicycle trend as well. We are seeing some fun accessories and styles such as the head scarf (or hats for winter), backpack purses, and strappy sandals.
A shout out to Priya, you can get a bike instead of a moped and you'll be just as cool ;)


H&M advertisement is the epitome of great summer style for bicycle fashion. The jumpsuit & head scarf are perfect for a bike ride.


Dresses and flats are a cute way to pass by on your way to work.


Summer or Winter


The bicycle trend is creating a new trend with purses. The over-the-shoulder and backpack purses are becoming very popular to accomodate every woman.
