…NOT!!! I’m no influencer. I’m pretty much just some person from Toronto who runs a blog – just like hundreds of others in the city. I don’t even get invitations to the so-called “coolest” parties. I mostly apply for media passes or pay to attend as an attendee (I’d say it’s about 50-50 right now. […]
I’d say, to a certain extent, yes. Most major brands that carry petites have launched their spring looks, and while many of the pieces still lean towards office-friendly, the choices are growing, sometimes with almost as much variety as regular sizes.

Several countries, including the UK, Australia, Spain and Taiwan take part. Stores offer discounts or specials to […]
French fashion grad, Celine Caveillero created a unique resume, modelled after fashion magazines, to help her find a job in the fashion industry. The site, which looks eerily like Vogue UK‘s website, has typical resume information such as education and work experience, as well as links to her fashion blog (in French) as well as […]
