<p>The specs to the right are pretty stellar; my favorite beign the red <a title="ClearlyContacts.ca" href="http://www.clearlycontacts.ca/glasses/frames/prada-01nv-ab0-1o1-red/prod27489.html?rsView=1&amp;ga=F|M|K" target="_blank">Pradas</a> for their shape and interior arm design, while the tortoiseshel<a title="ClearlyContacts.ca" href="http://www.clearlycontacts.ca/glasses/frames/ray-ban-5248-2012-dark-havana/prod21757.html?rsView=1&amp;ga=F|M|K" target="_blank">l Ray-ban Wayfarers</a> and <a title="ClearlyContacts.ca" href="http://www.clearlycontacts.ca/glasses/frames/diesel-0178-burgundy-red-ri2/prod27093.html?rsView=1&amp;ga=F|M|K" target="_blank">Diesels </a>are close seconds and thirds.</p>
<p>If you use promo code &#8220;<strong>BLUE15</strong>&#8221; you&#8217;ll get 15% off any pair, even designer selections.</p>
<p><em>FYI: Their promo code &#8220;<strong>FIRSTPAIRFREECA</strong>&#8221; won&#8217;t work on the designer pairs, but they will work with <a title="demiCouture.ca" href="http://demicouture.ca/2012/04/16/hipster-eyeglasses-including-lenses-for-15-from-clearlycontacts-ca/">these Derek Cardigans</a>.</em></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Coral has recently become a favorite of mine.  It is the perfect summer red, without stepping into dreaded Pink Territory.Coral reminds me of a pinched cheek, and I love it in leather, especially when made into a bike jacket, as<a title="My Wardrobe" href="www.my-wardrobe.com/iro/coral-ashville-shrunken-leather-biker-jacket-680034"> IRO has done</a>.  Ash has also experimented with coral leather, and has added super studs to their very cool <a title="Jades24" href="http://www.jades24.com/en/product/shoes_woman/ash-d-sneaker_coel/index.html"><em>Vibration</em> sneakers</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Floral denim is still as strong as last summer, and the variance of designs is only getting more detailed. Color palettes have also become carefully selected, and blended neutral tones have eclipsed hard black and whites. Working from <a title="Anthropologie" href="http://www.anthropologie.com/anthro/catalog/productdetail.jsp?id=24200313&amp;color=069" target="_blank">Citizens of Humanity&#8217;s china cup blue</a> and <a title="Mrs H" href="http://shopmrsh.com/products/Current_Elliott/Stiletto_Haystack_Floral/" target="_blank">Current/Elliott&#8217;s rosy <em>Haystack</em></a>, we can get to know what it means to be floral SS12 denim.</p>
<p>While I typically recommend staying with solid tops when one has a heavily patterned bottom, there was something about<a title="J Crew" href="http://www.jcrew.com/womens_feature/NewArrivals/knitsandtees/PRDOVR~74995/74995.jsp" target="_blank"> J Crew&#8217;s stripe tee</a> that cried out for usage.  Since the mint shade is so light, the pattern on pattern works, especially as the mint is picked up in the print of the <em>Haystack</em>.  Match that busy pair with a very basic boot as<a title="Gravity Pope" href="http://www.gravitypope.com/shoes/product/19046-acne-1ex113-900-pistol" target="_blank"> Acne&#8217;s <em>Pistol</em></a>, and you&#8217;re set.</p>
<p>When it came to the dark shade of the Citizens pair, I chose the neutral<a title="Its The New Black" href="http://www.itsthenewblack.com.au/clothing/t-shirts/angel-wings-toupe-song-bird-tee.html" target="_blank"> Angel Wings top</a> to offset the aggression of the denim and the <a title="Steve Madden" href="http://www.stevemadden.com/Item.aspx?id=92176">Steve Madden <em>Tarnney</em>&#8216;s</a> spikes.  No matter what you&#8217;re wanting to pair floral denim with, it&#8217;s all about balance.  Even if you choose two busy main ticket items, be sure to incorporate a few solids into the mix to mellow your look.</p>

<p>The only thing you&#8217;re responsible for is shipping.  That means express for $15 for express delivery (in about two to three days within Canada), and you&#8217;ll be seeing clearly, for much less.</p>
<p>The specs also come with a cleaning package, including cleaning liquid and a litle shammy for wipe-offs.  I own the top two pairs to the right (<a title="ClearlyContacts.ca" href="http://www.clearlycontacts.ca/glasses/frames/derek-cardigan-7015-dark-fade/prod27068.html?from=si" target="_blank">7015 </a>and <a title="ClearlyContacts.ca" href="http://www.clearlycontacts.ca/glasses/frames/derek-cardigan-7004-birch/prod27057.html" target="_blank">7004</a>), and planning to snap the <a title="ClearlyContacts.ca" href="http://www.clearlycontacts.ca/glasses/frames/derek-cardigan-7014-brown-tortoiseshell/prod27052.html" target="_blank">7014s </a>soon.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve only shown the in house label<a title="clear" href="http://www.clearlycontacts.ca/glasses/brands/derek-cardigan/cDerekCardigan-p1.html?ilid=tnav"> Derek Cardigan</a>, but they sell everything including authentic Ray-Ban Wayfarers (those are a little more; about $159 for <a title="ClearlyContacts.ca" href="http://www.clearlycontacts.ca/sunglasses/ray-ban-2140-black/prod32024.html">sunglasses </a>and $168 for the <a title="ClearlyContacts.ca" href="http://www.clearlycontacts.ca/glasses/frames/ray-ban-5248-2000-black/prod21758.html">optical frames</a>).</p>
<p>Oh, they also sell <a title="ClearlyContacts.ca" href="http://www.clearlycontacts.ca/sunglasses/lanvin-lv2129-03-black/prod31168.html">Lanvin sunglasses</a> for 99 bucks. You&#8217;re welcome.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Leather jackets have always been a literal second skin for me.  After losing my most favorite piece was stolen in Cape Town and learning a hard lesson in not being drunk and stupid, I&#8217;ve been on the hunt for an epic replacement.  While most leather catching my eye was above the $1,000 mark, I&#8217;m convinced that you don&#8217;t have to spend that much to locate something great.  Case and point below, where these four awesome bike jackets appear, all being under $500 US.</p>
<p>AllSaints and Topshop have minimalism covered with their <a title="Allsaints" href="http://www.us.allsaints.com/women/leathers/allsaints-herero-leather-jacket/?colour=5&amp;category=25" target="_blank"><em>Herero</em> </a>and <a title="Topshop" href="http://us.topshop.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?beginIndex=0&amp;viewAllFlag=&amp;catalogId=33060&amp;storeId=13052&amp;productId=1531907&amp;langId=-1&amp;categoryId=&amp;searchTerm=leather%20jacket&amp;pageSize=20" target="_blank">Boutique </a>cuts, though I&#8217;m drawn to more elaborate designs.  <a title="Coggles" href="http://www.coggles.com/item/Religion/HPJ17-Jet-Black-Leather-Biker-Jacket/9YCN" target="_blank">Religion&#8217;s belted biker</a> happens to be on sale, while<a title="Jades24" href="http://www.jades24.com/en/product/jackets_coats_woman/tigha-d-lederjacke_brk/index.html" target="_blank"> Tigha&#8217;s <em>Blair</em></a> with sleeve and collar detailing is my definite favorite.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Platform sneakers may have had their heydays in the mid nineties during the Spice Girls phenom, though they&#8217;re back with more steam than one could have thought possible.  As someone who owned three platform sneaker pairs just like the <a title="Solestruck" href="http://www.solestruck.com/jil-sander-navy-leather-perf-lace-up-platform-light-grey/index.html" target="_blank">Jil Sander <em>Navy</em></a> (and had to beg her mom for every single pair), this is brutally nostalgic.</p>
<p>The design world seems to have typically adopted a Chuck Taylor look to their platforms, from the sporty take of <a title="YesStyle" href="http://www.yesstyle.com/en/info.html/pid.1025053868" target="_blank">the Smoothie</a> to more gothic side of<a title="Karmaloop" href="http://www.karmaloop.com/product/225759" target="_blank"> iiJin&#8217;s studded</a> and <a title="Karmaloop" href="www.karmaloop.com/product/225747" target="_blank">embossed </a>designs.  If you&#8217;re into more of a basic canvas,<a title="Asos" href="http://us.asos.com/countryid/2/ASOS-DECO-Canvas-Flatform-High-Tops/xfz0l/?iid=1937121&amp;MID=35719" target="_blank"> Asos&#8217; art deco</a> offers a snappy pattern, while Chloe Sevigny for Opening Ceremony gives us the bare design &#8211; <a title="Opening Ceremony" href="http://www.openingceremony.us/products.asp?menuid=2&amp;catid=16&amp;designerid=224&amp;productid=50865" target="_blank">solid black</a>, or <a title="Opening Ceremony" href="http://www.openingceremony.us/products.asp?menuid=2&amp;designerid=224&amp;productid=50871&amp;key=canvas+platform" target="_blank">white</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Soft striped denim is on to be one of summer 2012&#8242;s hottest trends, beginning with<a title="The Outnet" href="www.theoutnet.com/product/242027" target="_blank"> Balmain&#8217;s pirate sequin skinnies</a> of FW11, and took on a fully spring look thanks to Current/Elliott&#8217;s <em>The Stiletto</em> denim, in <a title="Net-A-Porter" href="http://www.net-a-porter.com/product/188373" target="_blank">coral </a>and <a title="Net-A-Porter" href="http://www.net-a-porter.com/product/188374" target="_blank">sand dollar</a>.  Building on the base of these jeans, we have two soft, cheeky looks perfect for those experimenting with their looks in 2012.</p>
<p>Starting with the left, we&#8217;ve got a<a title="Net-A-Porter" href="http://www.net-a-porter.com/product/188373" target="_blank"> coral shade</a> of <em>The Stiletto</em>, and topped with Clu&#8217;s subtley lovely <a title="Ekseption" href="http://www.ekseption.es/t-shirts/product15395" target="_blank">polka dot tee</a>.  To continue with the pattern explosion, layer up with<a title="Jane Norman" href="http://www.janenorman.co.uk/fcp/product/buy-fashion-look-fabulous//wash-leopard-print-scarf/13343?colour=pale%20grey" target="_blank"> Jane Norman&#8217;s leopard print scarf</a>.  Pick up a pair of <a title="Topshop" href="us.topshop.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?catalogId=33060&amp;storeId=13052&amp;productId=4716569&amp;langId=-1" target="_blank">Topshop&#8217;s <em>Mel</em> brogues</a>, this particular style featuring a blast of coral to connect the kicks to your legs.  For a bit of eccentricity, find a hat like <a title="Swell" href="www.swell.com/!NABCvz1PRTLVobAfjI4KIw!/BRIXTON-AUTUMN-HAT" target="_blank">Brixton&#8217;s pork pie</a>, which clashes just the right amount with it&#8217;s pink fabric band.</p>
<p>When we go with the <a title="Net-A-Porter" href="http://www.net-a-porter.com/product/188374" target="_blank">sand dollar <em>Stiletto</em></a>, the result is a blend of flavors.  With a boxy <a title="Monki" href="http://www.monki.com/Shop/Blouses/Kajsa_blouse/65001-757455.1" target="_blank">mint blouse from Monki</a> and with <a title="Farfetch" href="http://www.farfetch.com/shopping/women/rodney-p-hunt-hi-top-spike-sneakers-item-10144625.aspx?cur=USD" target="_blank">spiked sneakers by Rodney P. Hunt</a>, the look is undoubtedly urban.  Toss in<a title="Net-A-Porter" href="www.net-a-porter.com/product/191227" target="_blank"> Burberry Prorsum&#8217;s woven riding cap</a>, and you have an incredibly unique look for the summer season.</p>
