The first Fashion Saturday was held at the tents at David Pecaut Square on October 26. Featuring highlights of the best looks presented at World MasterCard Fashion Week, divided into three shows (casual pieces, officewear and evening/cocktai) in three sessions, there was also an opportunity for attendees to shop various Canadian designers. A handful of […]
DAY 3: Paria Shivani: The first of two shows presented by The Collections, this women’s line has a young flare. The orange/tomato red tops and bottoms as well as the gauzey overlay on many of the pieces. Many of the looks are fairly wearable for every day situations, while others are in the “in between” […]
Pink Tartan: I have a love-hate relationship with this line, and have so for the past few seasons. I love LOOKING at the outfits, but they tend to be very heavy and don’t work well on shorter women with very small frames – most pieces are next to impossible to alter without changing the shape […]
Designing siblings Chloé and Parris Gordon have been gracing the tents of World MasterCard Fashion Week/LG Fashion Week for several seasons with their line, Chloé comme parris has rebranded. Their new line, called Beaufille (“handsome girl”) launched at World MasterCard Fashion Week yesterday, opening the Spring/Summer 2014 shows. The press release said that the upcoming […]

I love attending the shOws. This intimate fashion event, held over two days, features Canadian designers who show abroad. This season, the four designers featured were Bellavance and CALLA on Day 1 and Jeremy Laing and Steven Tai on Day 2. Missing this year is one of my favourites, Tanya Taylor. It was actually very […]
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 […]
Last week, I had went to Elle Canada’s style/meet-and-greet designers event at the Fermenting Cellar at Toronto’s Distillery District. The event, called FashionIESTA (the event was a partnership with the 2014 Ford Fiesta) featured a bit of shopping, as well as a panel where Elle Canada’s editor-in-chief featuring some of Canada’s most well-known designers – […]
Yes, YVES Saint Laurent. Not Saint Laurent, which is how everything else is branded these days. And YSL has two of my new favourite lip colours. Both on the lighter weight side, one is marketed as a balm (the Sheer Candy, in a silver case) while the other, the Rouge VOLUTÉ Shine, is more of […]
