French pop group, Yelle will be the featured artist at this year’s Operanation, to be held on October 16, 2014 at the Four Seasons Centre for the Performing Arts. It’s a week earlier than usual, and perhaps a good thing, since the party is often during World MasterCard Fashion Week, meaning for many (especially media), […]
The 11th White Cashmere fashion show featuring couture dresses (and suits – there was one outfit created for men) made out of Cashmere bathroom tissue and created by Canada’s top designers was held at The Carlu on September 30, just in time for Breast Cancer Awareness Month. This year, the designers were hand picked by […]
I’ve meant to post these for a while, but other events, such as Diner en Blanc and New York Fashion Week have taken priority. But now that it’s officially fall, I really should post something on one of my favourite fall/winter staples – the sweater dress. I think I have at least three or four […]
I caught the series premiere of Black-ish, a new sitcom starring Anthony Anderson and Laurence Fishburne last night. The show centres around an upper-middle class black family and the culture clash between the father and his kids. Black-ish trailer via IGN While the generational culture clash plot line isn’t new, it’s also rarely told (and […]
I recently had the wonderful opportunity to speak with trendy, New York-based designer Nili Lotan. Ms. Lotan’s pieces, often celebrity favourites, target a sophisticated woman who is not only looking for classic, long-lasting style, but also comfort. The current Fall/Winter collection is filled with loose, comfortable pieces that pair well with skinnies or leggings and […]

There are also a variety of different hair dryers as well as curling devices, such as the MiraCurl by Babyliss. Then, there are the nail supplies […]
Last night was Toronto’s third Diner en Blanc! The weather, once again cooperated and several hundred people, all dressed in white, gathered at Ontario Place for a beautiful dinner in front of the lake. This year’s event was held later than usual – in September rather than late August. In fact, I joked to another […]
The article about Bayview Village Shopping Centre over at Retail Insider inspired me to write about the mall from my own perspective. The mall, located at Bayview and Sheppard, has a special place in my heart because I grew up in the area and can proudly say that I’ve been going there since BEFORE I […]
My husband and I first went to Sorrel Restaurant last Christmas when it was located on Yorkville Avenue. The dinner we had was excellent and we decided to go for our Valentine’s Day dinner. Sadly, that didn’t happen as the restaurant was a victim of a devastating fire just a few weeks later (we went […]
Right before the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) opened last week, we had the opportunity to tour Natasha Koifman’s IT Lounge to check out what was in store for celebrities during the 10-day event. We also had a chance to briefly speak with Ms. Koifman on what people will experience, especially in terms of food […]
