Ottawa has always been a tourist destination being the nation’s capital. These days, the reason why people are flocking to Ottawa is a little different. Travellers from Toronto, Kingston, Montreal and more are looking to enjoy that mix of city and nature that Ottawa so uniquely offers but also for the diverse shopping experience. The […]
I have been in love with this Ann Taylor skirt since I first saw it at a fall preview a few months back. It’s got the feline print (so much so that this week’s IFB project is feline-related), or, more specifically, the leopard print that seems to be EVERYWHERE this season, but is subtle enough […]
OUR GIVEAWAY HAS CLOSED! CONGRATS TO TAYO!!! Since almost half of all women say that they have trouble finding pants, LOFT has redesigned your favourite styles (Marissa, Julie and Zoe) to better fit you! In the Toronto area, a personal “fit clinic” is being held at the Toronto Eaton Centre store on the following days: […]
On Sunday, several of Toronto’s top bloggers, including Backseat Stylers, The Souls of My Shoes and Style Blog participated in the #bloggerbazaarto at at the back of Monica Mei’s AIME boutique. Items ranged from bags to clothing and shoes (and from budget-friendly brands like Joe Fresh to premium lines like Erdem and Christian Louboutin), all […]
A girl can never have too much black (or lip gloss), in my opinion. And that has definitely been the case, historically speaking, when you take a peek into my closet. Though over the past year or so, I’ve been adding more colour, many of my favourites, especially in cooler months, have been black. On […]
This limited edition capsule collection is probably Banana Republic‘s most anticipated collection yet. Available as of Thursday, August 8, both online and in-store, this collection consists of nearly 40 pieces including dresses, sweaters and accessories. Issa London soared into popularity this side of the Atlantic in 2010 when Kate Middleton (now Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge) […]
This is apparently the case, according to posts on Retail Insider and Style Democracy, and according to them, big names, including Ferragamo (set to open its first Toronto store at Yorkdale Shopping Centre very soon) may be on their way in. But big names “right” for Hazelton Lanes? Don’t they want a street front presence? […]
The much-anticipated mall opens tomorrow (August 1) with some 85 stores, including Tory Burch, Kate Spade and Michael Kors. Other stores include J.Crew Factory (the second in Ontario) and Banana Republic Factory as well as Hudson’s Bay’s first outlet store. Ports 1961, which left Bloor Street last year is reappearing as an outlet shop at […]
Gambita, the online-only, petite-exclusive store (we profiled them earlier this year) is holding a model search for an upcoming photo shoot! This is probably one of the few chances shorter women under 5’4″ would ever get a chance to model (unless, of course, they’re celebrities like Lady Gaga), since many contests and agencies that claim […]
Non-Cantonese speakers are always asking me how to say “hello” in the language. The truth is, there isn’t really a way to do so. On the phone, one might say “wai?” but that’s not super-formal. And “nay ho” and even “nay ho mah” isn’t appropriate all the time, either (a little bit too stuffy). I […]
