I was browsing the Summer 2011 lookbook from Montreal based designer Eve Gravel, and I was immediately struck by the soft colours and classic shapes, as well as the lady-like styling (love the lace gloves) of the looks as a whole.


I first encountered her pieces in a shop located here in Ottawa, Victoire, and based on my admiration for some of her garments I saw there, I wanted to check out what was on offer for summer, since I have been spending the cold wintry days day-dreaming about sunny days and summer wardrobe choices. Based on this lookbook  (which you can check out in full here), I am hoping to add a few of Ms. Gravel's lovely items to my closet very soon.

Oh gosh, these are so pretty! I love all of it! A store just recently opened here and they sell Eve Gravel, but I've yet to go there... must make it a priority, now! Lovely!

This season I've started noticing this trend - bottons on the back, the whole way down. Looks pretty cute! :)

I think the thing I like about this lookbook the most is the make up, so so stunning!

Hey sorry about the delayed response! I'm glad you loved The King's Speech too! It's such a great film! I'm so glad I saw it before the Oscars! Before I saw it, I thought 2010 was a mediocre year for movies, but The King's Speech proved me wrong and Scott Pilgrim too. Hehe.

Oh I love this collection. Love the classic silhouettes and the styling is perfection. Of course, I'm adoring the gloves. The model has such a classic and beautiful face!
