We weren't too crazy about Vena Cava's Fall collection when it debuted back in February, but now we can't seem to get enough. The color blocking, textures, and multiple patterns on this Bernard Dress ($536 USD), are beautiful and exactly what we have been craving these past few weeks.

The wedges on these Agent by Carvela heels ($150 USD) make them extremely sturdy and add an unexpected presence to these shoes. We think they should be paired with a smart high waisted pencil skirt and a boxy cropped jacket, it could be Fall's must-have look!

Her cards are inspired by trends in fashion, home décor and her local market and bakery. The detail of the ribbon and jewel embellishments, compliment the chic and whimsical illustrations perfectly.

Inspired by the beauty of winter, Canadian brother and sister team Thien and My Ta Trung have designed this ultra-luxe Iceberg Table ($3,500 USD). The perfect snowflakes, laser-cut from steel looks fragile in its beautiful intricacy - this piece borders on the line of art vs. furniture. To be honest, we think it's a little of both.

This Tote by Tracy Zych ($575 USD) reminds us of a quintessential 60's purse. We can definitely imagine Catherine Deneuve's character in Belle de Jour carrying this chic handbag back and forth between her two lives. This bag is the perfect companion for both work and play.
