Perhaps thanks to the popularity of Movember, I’ve developed a strange fondness for moustaches. What’s weirder is that I don’t actually like ‘staches on men. Let’s face it, Tom Selleck and Burt Reynolds are really the only men who can pull off a furry upper lip.

Lucky for me and other moustache aficionados, the mouth brow seems to be popping up in all kinds of non-facial places. Here are some of my favourite moustachio’d accessories. What other furry goodies have you come across?

What I love most about Jessica Jensen handbags are that they’re elegantly understated. They won’t overshadow an outfit or steal attention away from it – instead, they’ll nicely compliment what you wear (and isn’t that what accessories are truly meant to do anyways?)

The Canadian handbag maven is launching a new collection for 2012, which includes three distinct groups: Collection Classics, Metropolitan Metallics and Urban Basics. The styles are simple and the colours neutral, so they easily work into any outfit.

My pick out of the bunch? The metallic woven leather handbag in a rich brown. It’s exactly the type of purse I picture myself wearing when i’m trying to pull off a more sophisticated version of me (a.k.a. when I’m going to work).

Ok, so I just broke my New Year’s Resolution: #3- no more shoes. But when I drafted this late 2011, it clearly made an exception for 50% off Alexander Wang Ankle Boots!!! Right? Right? Ok, maybe not…but who could resist?

I have been eyeing this awesome ankle boots since I spotted them at Jonathan+Olivia on Ossington Ave, Toronto late last summer. But low and behold, the very last pair (yay size 5) were still patiently waiting for me, post boxing day mark downs! It’s fate! The suede boots are an off grey meets cammo green color and match wonderfully with a flowy blouse and skinny jeans for work and weekend. After a careful spray of  winter waterproofing treatment, they are perfect for fall to early winter walking. The boots have a comfy 4 inch thick wooden heel, cushioned sole, lace-up and buckle details create the perfect harmony between girly and utilitarian. Wearing these awesome booties in the grey Toronto weather  really helps put the kick back into my step.

We did it. Matching watches for all – sort of. O clock is the latest discovery in my trek for all things watches and original. Reminding me slightly of the Movado bold (though we know we’re not comparing apples to apples), the O clock watches are an original silicone, unisex set of watches. The full initial set is approximately $50, each part being $25. You can mix and match infinitely with the variety of faces, with new ones coming out like mirrored faces and camoflauge. The brand hails from Milan, all of the products are Italian designed. While the silicone isn’t my favourite material (it attracts dust, don’t care what anyone says), I’m quite fond of the minimalistic feel and ease of wear (it really doesn’t feel like anything). The one I’m wearing is called “water blue” (aka teal).

Myself and Maria went to the Distillery District art gallery for a lovely little soiree by Hip Urban Girl (HUG) – twas my first of its kind. It was a Cookies and Champagne concept, where ladies would create beautiful works of art (edible of course) and swap cookie styles with one another to take home and enjoy. Naturally, Maria and I were pressed on time so we wandered and admired, as well as took a look at some of the stellar vendors that were showcasing their wares at the event.

Chobani Yogurt (delicious by the way – try the black cherry flavour), Barefoot Wine (and Bubbly) and Olympus were all sponsors of the event. Impressive turnout and tasty treats that we walked away with. Thanks HUG for the invite – always a pleasure.

Among my favourites – I’m a sucker for these decorated delights. And what vintage edible decor – silver balls and candy flakes.

This was actually a facial scrub. All natural – and smelled pretty delight too.

Something that Williams-Sonoma would probably be proud to carry (for a healthy cost too). I’m a sucker for “pretty cupcakes”.

Unique jewelry on display at the event. Kitschy and kind of perfect.

Feminine flasks. Good idea – an even better idea for the Holidays (I’ve got some thoughts around who to get these for!)

A great (and flashy) little ring number that I walked away with. Enjoying the feathers, great touch. Vintage and a bit nautical (just a tinge)
