Yes, he’s a hottie, but yesterday, many publications, especially those catering to women, emphasized on Justin Trudeau’s appearance. Why? Why aren’t we focusing on his policies and what he and his government plan for the country (and how it could impact internationally)? He might be a family legacy, and has a so-called “perfect” family, but […]
The National Women’s Show Toronto edition was held Friday through Sunday at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre. As usual, there were exhibitors from many industries, ranging from fashion and beauty to food, travel and more. In addition, there were demonstrations and fashion shows. All in all, the event was a great deal of fun – […]
I recently enacted a “limited swag” rule for myself when I go to previews. Over the seven or so years I’ve been serious about blogging, I’ve gone to tons of events – mostly previews – and have received many, many bags. Most of the time, it just stays in my office, cluttering up space and […]
In the May issue of Marie Claire (US edition), there was an article about juice cleanses and why they aren’t that great for you. I think this is one of the first major publications that talked about it, and yes, I am very surprised. I would have thought that newspapers and blogs would have had […]
Hosted by LOFT Girls/Hip Urban Girl and store staff, a brunch shopping party was held at LOFT Yorkdale on February 24. The event was not that atypical of similar shopping parties, save for brunch food (granola, fruit and yogurt in shot glasses, banana and Nutella sandwiches, etc…) and the lack of a make-up or manicure […]

While nibbling on delicious hors d’oeuvres and sipping cocktails, attendees got to put together gift boxes with wonderful products from Stila and Ardell Lashes. As many of these women are starting new lives, the […]
The Anna Dello Russo for H&M collection debuts tomorrow, October 4, and I swear to whatever higher beings are out there that I am the only style blogger on this planet who just doesn’t care about the collection. It isn’t just because the I’d never be able to fit into any shoes at H&M (feet […]
Let me preface this article by saying that I don’t have issues with ALL fashion and style bloggers. Just some. They are the bloggers who have a holier-than-thou attitude about what’s “in” and what’s “out” and that certain celebrities don’t “have style” because they don’t always wear the latest trends. Then there are those bloggers […]
And Robin Kay is stepping down as executive director (but will remain president of the Fashion Design Council of Canada). This could mean big things for Toronto Fashion Week, including more press – something that Toronto Fashion Week really deserves. According to the Toronto Star, the Spring/Summer 2013 collections will go on as planned this […]
