Crazy For Coco Thursday, July 17, 2008 1:06 AM

How much do I love the cover of the August 2008 issue of FASHION? The bright pink, the lime green, the white text, the gradient in the magazine's title, and Coco Rocha all wrapped up in one neat little package.

My only complaint is there are only two additional photos of Coco inside the magazine. The photos were shot by Miguel Jacob and styled by stylist extraordinaire Tammy Eckenswiller.

Also, how amazing are those Christian Louboutin pink fringe suede boots? Louboutin's have never made me swoon until now. They're not something I would wear even if I had the money, but they look absolutely stunning. Ever since I got a copy of this issue last week, I keep sneaking peeks at page 95 for these boots.

The above denim story, My Blue Heaven, was shot by Francisco Garcia and styled by George Antonopoulos.

Yes, you can barely see my outfit, but it's the only photo I have and certainly not an outfit worth rephotographing. It was my laundry day outfit as most of my clothing was still busy drying when I had to rush out to meet a friend for lunch.

Despite the humidity, it was a pretty perfect Saturday afternoon; few things make me happier then taking a long walk around the city with a camera (Polaroid on this particular day) and good company. A gelato stop at Dolce and a rest in Trinity Bellwoods Park were the cherries on top. I don't know if my friend feels the same though, because I made him lug around my H&M purchase and some other heavy things I threw into the bag so I could relieve my aching shoulder.

The above photo of me was taken by my friend. Either I give really good directions or he has hidden talent as a photographer. I'm impressed. Below are a few images I captured on Saturday.

White boys a-shirt: Simply Basic (Walmart). Hong Kong tee: A Little Birdie Told Me. Heart charm necklace: Tryst by Kerry. Wide leg jeans: Old Navy. Dark reddish brown braided belt: dad's. Flats: Zara. Sunglasses: H&M.

The heat is making me super duper lazy and casual. I took an unexpected trip home so I didn't bring my camera or tripod. These were snapped on my mom's point & shoot. I've also noticed a colour and contrast discrepancy in the photos on my Mac and in Windows. It'll be something I'll have to remember to look into...

The outfit photos from the last few days will be posted out of order because I didn't edit / scan them in chronological order.

My Sabina bag arrived from Urban Outfitters a couple weeks ago, but I'm only posting a picture of it now even though I photographed it last weekend. Procrastinating is still one of my favourite pastimes.

When my bag arrived, it was gift wrapped (for free!) which made it all the more exciting to open. The bag is lovely and seems very sturdy -- I've been using it everyday since receiving it to lug around my life which includes my DSLR plus my super heavy 17-40mm lens.
