Yorkdale’s food court, Dine on 3, is no ordinary mall food court. In fact, it isn’t even a typical more “upscale” food court like the Eaton Centre’s Urban Eatery. Taking over what was the upper floors of Eatons (and then Sears), outlets include the usual suspects of KFC, Subway and A&W as well as more […]

Trina Turk for Banana Republic Collab Video with Rescue Dogs
Isn’t this ADORABLE? The sale is starts a week from today (June 7)! Hope there’ll be pieces that’ll fit petite gals! There are so many brightly coloured pieces in this collection. Though my closet is not nearly as drab as it used to be, colour is always good! Are you looking forward to this […]
Where Are The Umbrellas?
This past March, I lost my umbrella – it probably fell out of my “Fashion Week Kit” somehow, and I was never able to get it back (I didn’t realize it was gone until a week later, anyway). So as soon as I discovered that it was gone, I started looking for a new one. […]
Ann Taylor Opening Two Stores in Toronto
This was announced Thursday, but it isn’t clear based on the articles whether this means that there are actually two Ann Taylor stores, or if one is LOFT. If it is indeed two Ann Taylor stores, my guess is that one of them will be at Yorkdale (long rumoured) and another will either be on […]
Big Names, ‘Unknowns’ and Label Snobs
I have to admit that my closet is a mix of both bigger name brands and independents/up-and-coming lines. I’d prefer if I’d had more of the latter, but access is often an issue. Even the up-and-coming lines that make it to FAT or Toronto Fashion Week are already at least somewhat known, especially to those […]

We’re More Likely To Buy From Those Who Reflect Us: Ben Barry
Toronto based model agent, Ben Barry is featured in this video discussing how models that are similar-sized/look like the consumer would more likely attract said consumer. Well, DUH! We want to see what something looks like on us. One reason why I, as a petite woman, prefer celebrities over models. While most celebrities have amazing […]
From ANTM Live Toronto: Petite Friendly Convertible Dresses from Henkaa
One of the dresses I purchased at America’s Next Top Model LIVE! Toronto was this convertible/multi-style dress from Henkaa (“change” in Japanese). Henkaa has three lengths, a mini dress/long top as well as two dresses (known as the Sakura), which come in short and long. It’s one size fits most – the regular sizes fit […]
Tory Opens in Toronto!
While I didn’t get the opportunity to go to Tory Burch‘s preview event for media on May 3 (wouldn’t have had time anyway, considering it was the same night as TFI25), I did get a chance to finally check it out. As I didn’t want to brave the lines on opening day and subsequent weekend, […]
