If you saw my Tweet yesterday, you already know about this! I’m pretty excited, though I would venture to guess that there’ll be long, long lines outside the store for the next little while since it’ll be the only J.Crew in Canada for the time being. I also hope that the selection is good and […]
I read a lot of style blogs, many of which are based in the US. I’m sometimes jealous of what these writers can buy, since so many online stores either don’t deliver north of the border (nor do they take Canadian credit cards – looking at you, Ann Taylor and Cole Haan) or charge an […]
While recently on a trip to Niagara Falls, my husband and I found ourselves looking for a nice place to eat dinner at 11:30 at night. Although we knew this is a relatively late time to be searching for a decent restaurant, we assumed that a city whose main attractions are the casinos would be […]
July 1 and July 4 are coming next week and many are either getting ready to go away or hosting a backyard barbecue. Of course, there are those who go all out, wearing flag t-shirts and shorts, but if you’re looking for something a little more sophisticated (yet casual and comfortable at the same time), […]
A few weeks ago, rumours began to circulate about the possiblity of a Canadian version of the Real Housewives of ______. Scary, if you think about it. I didn’t even think that women in Canada would want to be followed around and filmed like that. I thought that the women, especially those here in Toronto, […]
When people think of Korhani, they think rugs. Things you put on the floor. People don’t think couture. However, this was proven wrong at LG Fashion Week on Tuesday, when Korhani presented what is perhaps the first rug runway show in history.

I was shocked to learn from the Toronto Star that Tom Hargitai, the friendly scruffy-ish-looking doorman at the Holt Renfrew store on Bloor has been let go. People in this city familiar with him either love him or they don’t. Some like the fact that he is very friendly and welcoming – a brand ambassador so […]
According to reports from sources like the Globe and Mail, Research in Motion’s long-awaited Playbook is now available for pre-order at BestBuy as of today, March 22, 2011. The official North American launch date for the device is April 19. This is a little later than expected – the rumoured launch date was some time […]
While RIM still has NOT announced PlayBook’s release date (rumours are circulating that it’s April 10 or AFTER iPad 2’s release), they’re slowly letting the outside world know what one would find on the device. Recently, they announced some of the media apps, whic include Music Store by 7digital as well as podcasting among other things. […]
Ottawa like many great Canadian cities has its own gems to be shared to those for when they visit. Now when visiting a city what’s more important than where to eat and where to shop? Maybe where to sleep but that’s your problem (just joking). Here are some of the most fashion forward, vintage, unique […]
