This week, Independent Fashion Bloggers asked us to write about fall boots. Though it’s still fairly warm in Toronto – this week’s weather will be in the mid 20s C – projected temperatures over the next couple of weeks will drop down to the mid to high teens. Though not cool enough for boots just […]

Weekend Basics for Winter: Long Sweaters, Skinny Pants and Tall Boots
Though Toronto doesn’t necessarily get all that snowy in the winter, thanks to below freezing or borderline freezing temperatures, snow the ground is often extremely wet. And as a frequent walker and transit-taker, even during the weekend, a wet walkway, especially when there are snowbanks, can dirty the hems of pants. Thus, for me, anyway, […]
Webitor’s Pick: Spring Pull-Over Sweater
For some reason, I can’t seem to find this sweater at either the US/International Banana Republic store nor the Canadian one. It could be sold out, but there were plenty at the two of the stores near me when I was there last week. This versatile piece is definitely a sweater that adds pop to […]
Petite Fashion Challenge #13: Stylish for Under $100
This month’s Petite Fashion Challenge, hosted by Really Petite, is: Stylish for under $100: Put together a professional outfit (excluding shoes and accessories) for under $100. I had some trouble figuring out what to wear for this month’s challenge – I had originally planned to use a dress I bought back in November or December, […]
From Shorty Stories: Christian Louboutin and Shoe Vanity Sizing
Yeah, I know. I neglected to mention that I’m finally a proud owner of Christian Louboutins! The Prorata 90 mm pumps were purchased from a Christian Louboutin boutique in Hong Kong at the oh-so-hard-to-find size 34 (the similar-looking New Simple Pump starts at 35). Yes, size 34. Not 34.5 or size 35. I don’t think […]
Webitor’s Picks: A Couple of Teal Looks
Another top colour for fall this season is teal. It wasn’t a colour that I thought I could wear well at first and I actually avoided for a long time. But then, I decided to do something different, tried it and fell in love. Though I don’t think the colour works well on everyone as […]
Online Shopping in Canada = :-(
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 […]
Black and White and a Touch of Colour: A Webitor’s Pick for Work
Below are our suggestions for a sophisticated summer look with black, white and a bit of colour. Try combining a white, cropped pant with a black, lightweight top and blazer, then add a colourful scarf. Can’t wear cropped pants to work? No problem. Try a sleek, white dress instead! The pieces also convert very […]
Some Cute, Yet Comfortable Shoes for the Summer
I don’t like wearing heels higher than 3 1/2″. With my tiny feet, I just can’t balance properly while standing, let alone walk. This, of course, doesn’t stop sales people from trying to get me to buy the hottest look, even after I tell them that there’s no way I’d be able to walk properly. […]
