Skinny Jeans: Love it or Hate it?
Recently, Style Democracy posted an article on the skinny and how many women have mixed feelings about them (Refinery 29 has even gone as far as announcing its death). I personally LOVE them (along with other forms of skinny pants), especially for winter. Living in a city that gets snow, I really hate it when […]
Changes Coming to DelectablyChic!
I’ve been blogging under DelectablyChic! for nearly four years and blogging, period for even longer (we were previously known as Prospere Magazine, which made its debut in January 2008. I also ran Shorty Stories, which lasted from 2007 until last year. Prior to that, I had a LiveJournal). Lately, I’ve been thinking about my posting […]
Three Faves from Banana Republic x Marimekko
The Banana Republic x Marimekko collection lands in stores and online tomorrow (May 22, 2014). The collection is perfect for summer with its bright prints and colours. And considering that the weather is definitely looking up (at least around here – we are going to be in the high teens to mid-20s (Celsius – that would […]
Kelly Claman Pop-Up Shop on Spadina and Adelaide
I had the opportunity to visit the Kelly Claman/JAC BTQ a pop-up shop earlier this week (despite the horrible rain!). The store, which is located in the Adelaide and Spadina area, will be open until the end of May and features items by designers such as Kain, Whitney Eve and OFF DUTEE, all brands distributed […]

The Toronto Fashion Incubator’s Press and Buyers’ Brunch offers designers, whether it be fashion or accessories, the chance to speak directly with the press and buyers and has been held at every Toronto Fashion Week for a number of seasons. While enjoying a delicious brunch, buyers and media have the opportunity to visit a number […]
Professional Make-Up, Idiots and the YouTube Magazine Makeover
Recently, a video on YouTube showed four women getting the “celebrity” treatment of professional hair and make-up and a photo shoot. The pictures were then digitally edited to look more “ideal” in the mainstream sense. Before these pictures were done, the women commented on how they were often unsatisfied with their looks because they didn’t […]
J.Crew Yorkville: Now Open!
Last week, J.Crew held a party to celebrate their Yorkville store (located on 110 Bloor Street West, at the former home of Escada), which is the only Canadian location that carries the J.Crew Collection, a line premium priced items. The store also has regular items, but selection is not as big as the Yorkdale or […]
Warm Tones, Feminininity and a Sleek Presentation at Nanette Lepore
Unlike other designers, Nanette Lepore’s models did not look like walking trees or bushes with dark leaves – few of the models were bulked up with big, round layers on top, while wearing sleek, form-fitting skirts or pants. Many of the shows, especially from designers who target younger market featured this kind of styling – […]
Milly: Cropped Pants, A-Line Skirts and a Sea of Black
I like writing about “wearable” designers – Nanette Lepore, Tory Burch and the likes. The clothes are reachable for many, in terms of price, and usually, the looks are at least somewhat workable on various body types. Milly by Michelle Smith (aka “Milly”)is no different. While some of the looks are a little more on […]
