Now that I’m well into my 30s, I’m beginning to get tired of all the casual styles that seem to be hitting the magazines and stores as of late. The fashion world, especially within the blogging community, is not too friendly to anyone over 30. The ideal fashionista, blogger or not, is between 23-30, thin […]

Facelifts are not an uncommon sight in Toronto’s Yorkville neighbourhood – the ritzy area is known to attract the not-so-young and beautiful. Alas, little fixes here and there can improve one’s appearance only so much and sometimes one decides that a complete overhaul is necessary. Such was the case with the Four Seasons Toronto, a […]

The new space, which has been touted as the biggest shoe department in Canada (and apparently, second biggest in North America), carries brands ranging from more budget-friendly lines such as Nine West to luxury brands, including Christian Louboutin and […]
When I first heard about Kevin Kwan’s debut novel, I was excited to give it a read. Growing up, the vast majority of fiction with Asian characters focused on an older generation of Asian immigrants – ones who lived in Chinatown – or historical fiction. Few were about modern-day lifestyles. While Crazy Rich Asians certainly […]
Recently, I had the chance to preview Fionn MacCool’s summer menu, which debuted at the chain earlier this week. Fionn MacCool’s, which is one of the four brands under Prime Pubs (others are Tir Nan Og (Kingston), D’arcy McGee’s (Ottawa area) and Paddy Flaherty’s (Sarnia), is known for their wide-rage menu which includes more “traditional” […]
Recently, I asked readers on Facebook what they’d like to see more of on this site. Possible answers included the usual fashion, dining and travel…as well as “arts and culture,” which encompasses theatre, classical music, dance and so forth. As many online “style” publications, ones that seem to get the most press (in my world, […]
Mental health has definitely taken its toll on our culture as a good work-life balance becomes more and more difficult. Thus, awareness and help for those who need it have increasingly been in the limelight, even if it is still a topic that one is not “supposed” to talk about.
