Hello lovelies and welcome back to Kartia Vs Blog.

How are you all doing? Kicked off falls season yet?  It is a big no for me. I am still in my summer mood. few week back was a special honour for me by some friends of mine in the fashion industry. I was invited as a special guest to the ‘Aluminum Fall Fashion Show’ hosted by Crawl Cocktail, a Toronto Social Club. Check out the pictures on my blog. (here) Those outfits can be transformed into everyday pieces with fabrics of your choice. Talk about networking and making some pretty decent connections in the fashion world. I met some Toronto trends setters and fashion gurus and it was unbelievably heady stuff! The fashion show was all about originality, class and style all rolled into one.

I came face to face with Canadian designers whose clothes I had been wearing for years without even knowing them. Hahaha. It was so much fun and KV was gushing over these designers. Seriously, I was impressed. It was such an honour and privilege to meet these movers and shakers in our world of fashion and commend them for their talent. 

My Style Corner:
So glad to be sharing another set of pictures that I shoot while I was away on my vacation a few weeks ago. This was one of the shoots I did indoors because it rained ‘cats and dogs’ all the time I was in Nigeria.

I picked this understated teal green top but it doesn’t really show off my figure to perfection like my usual outfits but I like it nevertheless because it makes me look regal, comfortable and warm. If you are a diva you need to have the confidence to carry off numbers like this one because when people see it on you it suddenly becomes high fashion and trendsetting and that’s a hit for you. But please be sure to go heavy on your accessories and wear things that are trendy to spice it up and take it a few notches higher! If your outfit doesn’t make too much of a wow statement for you, that doesn’t mean it’s a cast off. Nothing is ever a lost cause in my world. Re-invent and think outside the box! What you do is spice it up big time with all kinds of interesting accessories.

Take a look at my sandals for one. Very snazzy,  pretty, bright and sparkly. Be sure not to forget your amazing pedicure and the latest shade of nail polish.

I gave you a close-up shot of my face so you see my make-up. Perfect, bold, colorful and eye catching eye shadow. Grooming will go a long way in ‘lending a hand’ to this outfit. Hahaha

Well asymmetrical is in, but I love the lace details of the blouse. As I said, I went heavy on bracelets, watch, rings, wrist jewels and finger cuffs. What do you think of those finger cuffs? You like? They are trending in the fashion world right now.

My pants are silk and two layered in a very easy to wear color - charcoal grey. These pants are quite under stated too and can go with virtually any top I can pull off the hangers. The silk material is flowy and a little clingy and the perfect match for the teal green top.

I am Kartia Velino the and I can make any outfit work for you. Have fun with this one.

Not My regular weekend post  but I really want to share this style.


Hello  Lovelies and Darlings.  welcome back again you all.
How are you enjoying your weekend?
Been busy with work and having fun at the same time.
I simply  can't let this style slide without sharing it with you. 
Last night a girlfriend celebrated her 45. 

My Style  Conner :
When I pulled out this Red-orange long gown. I thought about Color. 
Of course. if people  can wear black all year round,  why can't people  wear bright colors all year round, and beside that. I have  friends and Fan all over the world, hey why not style for everyone,

So Mixed it all. OK I mixed and matched the dress with blue hosiery and a matching glove, which I think it is very Jacqueline Onasis of the 1950.s and the same shoes color to make a statement  and complimented  it with the Loud Yellow necklaces, and evening purse that really  stood out. 
Really  I needed to share this with everyone.

My Heels, My Persona
Naaa! Are you kidding me? Vacation over and back to work!
Hello darlings and lovelies and beauties, welcome back to the amazing Blog of KV broadcasting once more from the True North strong and free! I am so delighted that you made it back again to the blog. I hope the kids had fun over Halloween while we adults celebrated ‘poppy day’ in memory of our country’s’ fallen brave ones.  In fact, I make a habit of buying one new ‘red poppy’ every day and I wear it for at least the first two weeks of November each year. I also used the occasion as a teachable moment and gave my boys civics lessons about ‘service to country’.


Well, I just got back from my vacation as you knooooww, all I did for three weeks was R and R! I Also blogged and got pampered. Seen my roses yet? Scroll down. Hehehe! I love being a woman. Women rock! 


A few days ago I received an amazing call from a Facebook friend (Martha, Martha), we became friends, we spoke on Fb Phone and laughed out loud for over 30 mins getting to know each other, and it seemed like we had known each other for years. I tell you folks, it’s all about women empowerment. It was a truly lovely experience for the two of us.


MY STYLE CONNER - MY FEV
This beautiful one side asymmetrical navy dress is a bombshell just like the diva wearing it hahaha! I styled it with a broach which I twirled into a neck piece, using a navy blue ribbon as a neck- tie. I matched it up with a small silver clutch purse, silver jewelry and listen folks, check out the one sided ear cuff, OH LALA! I couldn't resist snapping it up the moment I set my eyes on it. 


My close up photos show off my make-up to perfection. Very light and understated and I have a whimsical bit of the ‘gothic’ thing going on here too.


This dress is appropriate for both fall and summer because the theme - silver, navy with a touch of black here and there - really transcends all seasons. Silver and navy is a color scheme to keep in mind if your style is classic and original. It portrays elegance, grace, character and a lot of confidence in a woman because it simply says you have a lot going for you and are not necessarily depending on the flashiness or vibrancy of your clothing to carry you through. Only truly self-confident women can really carry off this color scheme to perfection.


These Brian Atwood shoes are a real stepping out moment. These platforms with modern energy, style of studs and personalized with sequins is the perfect closer for this fashion ensemble. This guy designs one of the most comfortable and unique shoes. They are so unbelievably comfortable and easy to wear. believe it or not this shoes are not in stores any more. It sold out so fast, and I just gat them few years back. A woman is not complete without heels
