outfit: enter to win $200 to noemiah!

calivintage - noemiah jumpsuit

i took these photos last week before the results of the election came in. i was feeling incredibly hopeful because i saw the polls showing a strong victory for hillary. i think one of my friends had just added me to pantsuit nation and i was feeling all warm and cozy in my little bubble, hearing positive stories about this historic moment for women. and i kinda laughed because while i don’t own any pantsuits, i certainly wear a lot of jumpsuits! of course, history was made, but not in the positive direction that we were hoping for. regardless of political affiliation, the election results were a shock for the entire country and so many vulnerable communities are now feeling very afraid for their futures. and very honestly, as i wrote in my last post, in the wake of all this, it does make this fashion blog feel rather pointless. but at the same time, i do work so very hard to support small, independent designers like the canadian-based noemiah who very kindly sent me this beautiful dusty rose jumpsuit from her fall 2016 collection. perhaps it’s not as revolutionary as other types of political action, but i’d like to think that supporting designers who produce their clothing thoughtfully and locally is a statement against the human rights and environmental abuses that are perpetuated by fast-fashion brands. i’ve always felt this way, and i will continue to promote what i believe in as long as i am able.

so with all of that being said, i would like to share a treat with you today! noemiah has kindly offered up the chance to win $200 to spend in her online shop. i absolutely love this jumpsuit because the wide legs give it the feel of a dress, but it still has the practicality and unexpected detail of being pants (which incidentally reminds me of this incredible hilarious/accurate video). it also comes in a really lovely dark denim, if you aren’t so daring as to wear this pretty shade of pink. i wear so much blue and so much denim, that i’ve been trying to challenge myself to wear a different color every now and again. and of course, there is so much more available from her collection!

  1. I don’t know if i’m able to choose between the jumpsuit you are actually wearing (the color and style is fabulous!) or the sooo versatile Emmanuelle black dress. Noemiah got talent!

  2. omg JE SUIS UNE FAN FINIE de Noemiah. Tout est de qualité et original. Dur de choisir mais si je dois le faire ce sera une robe Emmanuelle pour moi! Merci pour le concours <3

  3. I’m feeling similar to you right now. Everything feels pretty trivial and pointless after last week. I have to keep reminding myself that now is the time for me to be a warrior for those who are vulnerable. However I’m still human and I’d totally wear her long sleeved denim dress if I got the chance.

  4. I love the jumpsuit on you. I would love to have the Denim Jumpsuit Naomie. The jewelry is so unique and pretty. I will have to get a few necklaces for sure.

  5. I would absolutely be torn between the silky bow too, the little swimmers scarf and the boiled sweater in blush pink.

  6. There is too much to love! My favorite is the AW 15 Alice dress… I can tell it would make me feel put together on even my most “off” days.

    P.S. Getting dressed can definitely be a political statement… And I appreciate the statement you are making!!

  7. The dusty rose jumpsuit is gorgeous but I actually own and love the striped Emma dress. It’s one of my most magical pieces of clothing.

  8. Everything is so lovely! But I would definitely rock the Amelia Top, Jumpsuit, and Minimalistic Brooch! Thanks for the giveaway (:

  9. The Fabienne tunic is without a doubt my favorite! I’m in love with the gorgeous embroidery, and it absolutely reminds me of my time spent living in China.

  10. I’m coveting the entire collection!!! But the
    gold embroidered Pinafore Paule Jumper or Top would make such a beautiful holiday party outfit! ✨✨✨

    Also in love with the blush pink Amelia Wool Top. <3

  11. Oh wow, I love absolutely everything in this shop. I think if I won I would go for the jumpsuit you’re wearing though! One of my favorite colors.

  12. Merci Calivintage pour la belle découverte de Noémiah! J’aime tellement le sac à main en laine brodée. Il est d’une grande élégance, la délicatesse des broderies mêlée à la texture de la douce laine rose donne envie de se lover dedans. In short, I love this sweet and elegant bag!

  13. I love the Anne denim shirt dress. I am nearing my second trimester, and I love that this piece could be worn buttoned now, and open as a duster as my pregnancy progresses. It would also be perfect for nursing once baby is born. As you know very well, Erin, utility is key! This is a beautiful piece that is also totally functional.

  14. Ah I feel bad for never commenting and then only commenting on a giveaway, but noemiah is so so beautiful. Anyways, always love your blog. ♡

    My favorite is the Embroidered Pinafore Paule Dress but they are all gorgeous and it’s so hard to choose!

  15. I’ve admired noemiah’s work for a little over a year and I love the Swimmers Print Dress and the Dusty Rose Jumpsuit.

  16. Wow! What a gorgeous shop, love it! I would definitely purchase the Ophelie Jumpsuit – so elegant and lovely. Thanks for the opportunity!

  17. It’s hard to choose! The Little Swimmers scarf is one of my all-time favorites, but I’m also really liking the fit of the Cecile Dress.

  18. Druzy Quartz Earrings! Put them in a dainty candy dish and mix them up! Pull out 2 or 3 for multiple lobe piercings and never have the same set twice!

    1. Also…thank you for your words and voice.

      Post-election, I noticed some bloggers I follow didn’t say a word – just carried on business as usual. Others offered a post or even just a line or two expressing sadness, fear or anger – something.

      Such expressions – and words of acknowledgement – make such a difference to me. Make me feel as though I’m following the writings (even if about fashion, etc.) of kindred spirits. So again, thank you!

  19. I feel the same. There are no words – and everything feels so uncertain. I’ve always appreciated the heart behind this blog. It’s encouraging to think we all have something to give, big or small!

    As far as the clothes, the Celine dresses are so pretty! I’d say that’s my favorite item.

  20. Oof! Those jumpsuits are dope! I am still so madly in love with anything ‘Swimmer Print’ – both the dress and the scarf are on my “someday” list for sure.

  21. Just love anything dusty pink! I would try out this jumpsuit in a heartbeat, especially with a sweater like you did :D I’m also definitely getting one of those gold geometric necklaces!

  22. Oh my. Thanks for the tip off about noemiah…what a joy to wander through that online store. I love the naomie jumpsuit in denim. And just about any of their necklaces – I really like the gold plated minimal necklace with sphere.

  23. My favourite piece is the “Sac à main en laine brodée” but if I had to chose a dress it would be the Alice dress or Paule dress, such a hard choice !! Oh and the “Combi-Pantalon Ophélie” in pink is incredible too

  24. I love the new collection so much especially the Denim Jumpsuit Naomie! Thank you so much for this lovely giveaway! I have been following them since I have my Etsy account ;) their designs are always so peaceful and playful!

  25. I couldn’t go past the Swimmers Print Dress, it’s so light and airy! Perfect for the Australian summer, which has switched on suddenly in the last few days :)

  26. Ooh! This is fun. I’d pick the Embroidered Pinafore Simone Top for me. But I’d gift the Little Swimmers scarf to my sister.

  27. The loose fit women dress is elegant and simple, and looks like you can just throw it on and go. That’s what I like. Wish it came with long sleeves! I live in Vermont. Snow is blowing by outside my window. But you can always layer…

  28. The loose black Emmanuelle Dress. I adore the cut and collar. The little ties at the collar remind me of dresses I wore as a little girl. It is dreamy and yet somehow practical.

  29. there’s absolutely nothing by noemiah i wouldn’t love to wear, but i’m especially enamoured with her newest purse <3

  30. I’m hard pressed to pick a favourite – I am a dedicated supporter of Noemiah. The Maxi minimal shirt dress in pale blue (no longer for sale) is my most treasured item already in my closet. I have my eye, though on the new denim jumpsuit. So unique and elegant, but also very easily integrated into my wardrobe!

  31. I think your taste is impeccable. That dusty rose jumpsuit Naomie is my favourite too. How adorable and comfy it looks!!

  32. Hi,
    I have a pair of dresses by Noemiah and I was glad to be reminded of her latest collections!
    As for the contest, I like her tops, especially the one with a bow that we can tie in the front. I hope I win (if not, I’ll check out her items in town :).
    Thank you,
    Tatiana Soto
