Calvin Klein Push Positive: Dressy Look with Sports Bra Comfort

I recently received a black Calvin Klein Push Positive bra, courtesy of a Toronto PR company.  This push up/padded bra is, unlike many of its competition, soft wired, giving it a more comfortable fit – no digging in under your boobs, and with more of a sports bra-like feel.  Unlike a sports bra, however, Push […]

Recently, DelectablyChic! had the chance to speak with Sean Snyder, founder of Canada’s Trend Trunk, an online-based market place for fashionably new and pre-loved clothing and accessories.  Sellers upload and manage their own products (Trend Trunk holds no inventory) while Trend Trunk acts as a “middle person” dealing only with shipping costs, sending sellers a […]

Anna Dello Russo for H&M: My Eyes! My Eyes!

The Anna Dello Russo for H&M collection debuts tomorrow, October 4, and I swear to whatever higher beings are out there that I am the only style blogger on this planet who just doesn’t care about the collection.  It isn’t just because the I’d never be able to fit into any shoes at H&M (feet […]

Sweater Weather (Plus Help Me Choose Sunglasses)

This week’s IFB Project is to put together one’s best “sweater weather style.”  Well, this isn’t best-best in terms of prettiness, but it’s one of my favourite weekend outfits and a look that I’ve gone with for at least two or three ears – just about as long as I’ve had this cardigan – or […]

‘Proper’ Dress, Funky Dress and Press

Let me preface this article by saying that I don’t have issues with ALL fashion and style bloggers.  Just some.  They are the bloggers who have a holier-than-thou attitude about what’s “in” and what’s “out” and that certain celebrities don’t “have style” because they don’t always wear the latest trends.  Then there are those bloggers […]

Ideal Bags for Daily Use, Proportion, Etc…

Every woman needs to have THE BAG to take all of her essentials.  For many, including myself, this includes a wallet, phone, lip gloss, keys, so a small to medium bag would do the trick. Others prefer something larger, perhaps something that can double up as a shopping bag or briefcase or even gym bag- […]
