Party In The USA


There's a Penguins game on the night of a cocktail party I've been invited to. And as much as I would like to throw on my Crosby jersey it's probably not the best idea in the world. So a classier outfit in coordinating colours will have to do.

The dress itself is extremely minimalist. Form-fitting and sleeveless, it's sexy but not obnoxious. The accessories can do the talking for this look, with an art deco cuff on one wrist, an Hermes clic-clac bracelet on the other, paired with a sleek watch, all in black and gold. Spice up the outfit with leopard heels and you're ready to party like you won a Stanley Cup.

Go Pens Go!

Too Cool For School


If you live in Canada like me, you'll know how hard it is to get up on a cold, blistery winter morning and want to look good when on your way to class. Fortunately, there is no shortage of fun sweaters and thick boots so you can go to school without having to wear thermal pants and a Snuggie for warmth.

How cute is this sweater! When it comes to repping my second-favorite NHL team, any Penguin will do. This little guy looks like he could be Iceberg's adorable offspring. Knitted Ugg boots and a cross-body bag with gold hardware complete the comfy-casual ensemble and add a shot of the classic Pens colours to the outfit.

Go Pens Go!

Pretty In Pittsburgh


A girly, glacier-friendly outfit you can throw on for dinner with friends or a romantic date. Or in my case, a dinner with friends or romantic date while obsessively checking my TSN for iPhone application to see who's winning the game.


A pin-tucked sundress in the powder blue shade the Penguins don every now and then, and of course the standard black and white accents in the cardigan, belt and shoes and you've got your go-to game uniform!


Obviously, the $2000 price tag on this navy Mulberry Alexa is not accessible to everyone, especially for a paycheck-to-paycheck sports writer like me, but any semi-structured, menswear-inspired bag will do to offset the femininity of the dress.


Go Pens Go!



It's not just Crosby and the crew who can rock powder blue, white and navy so well
