I try to avoid buying black or charcoal coats. When everyone has a similar coloured coat, you just blend in with the rest. Besides, winter’s cold and it gets dark early, so why do you want to…disappear? One reason why I try to look for brighter colours (or at least, not something dark) when I’m […]
Ann Taylor, which will be opening its first Toronto (and Canadian) store later this year, held a fall preview recently at the historical Carlu at College Park. With a theme of 1960s Parisian style with a pop of colour, Torontonians can expect lots of black, teals and magentas. Style does not deviate very much from […]

However, a wrist […]
