Intermix Toronto is Back!

After shutting down for nearly two months due to flooding, Canada’s first Intermix store in Toronto’s Yorkville area has once again opened its doors!  Stock is filled spring-ready items in bright, gorgeous colours.  In addition, any discounts that were received late last year will be honoured until March 1.  Good news for those of us […]

Jason Wu for Target in Toronto: My Loot

As mentioned in the other post, shoppers were only allowed to purchase three items at the Jason Wu for Target pop-up on Thursday.  I took in six pieces to try, including dresses (three), a skirt and two tops and ended up buying one dress and two tops.  Two of the dresses I wanted to buy […]

Toronto Goes Crazy at Jason Wu for Target

With a mail theme, Torontonians got a preview of what it would be like to have a Target store at the one day only Jason Wu for Target event, held on King and Peter Street yesterday.  Some people were at the location as early as 6 am, just so they could have a shot at […]

Some Recent Peacock Parade Purchases

This post is a long time coming as some of the purchases came over two weeks ago!  Since I signed up for the flash sale site,  Peacock Parade back in the fall, I had mostly been buying dresses.  Lately, it has been tops – ones that I can wear into spring and even summer.  The […]

Should H&M Have a Petite Line?

I saw a Tweet from @hmusa recently about the fact that the plus department in the US is rebranding from Big & Beautiful to the more appropriate H&M+ name.  Sizes this department will carry will range between 14 and 24.  While I knew that H&M had plus sizes, I can’t help but wonder if they’ll […]

Pretty, Bright Colours at Nanette Lepore

What I love about Nanette Lepore is her constant use of bright, bold colours, no matter the season.  There was very little black or grey and in general, the collections tend to arguably be predictable, but one can’t help but love the fact her use of colours just brighten up a dark winter day. There […]

Chainbags and Floral Details at Tory Burch

Always with a touch of preppiness, Tory Burch’s Fall/Winter 2012-2013 collection is no exception.  Gorgeous deep reds and greens team up with blacks, greys and a touch of blue and shine for the upcoming season.  Also included were the floral detailing found in many of the looks, something that is more often seen for spring […]

Marc Jacobs goes BIG for Fall/Winter 2012

Wow, all I can say is WOW.  Marc Jacobs’ Fall/Winter collection was definitely a production.  With steps leading down to a raised, curved runway (set design by Rachel Feinstein), that some might say was inspired by Dr. Seuss, the presentation was definitely all out big, including the clothes themselves.  Most interestingly was the music.  For […]

Hervé Léger F/W2012-2013: The Equestrian Warrior Biker Chick

Some may call Hervé Léger by Max Azria the same old, season after season.  After all, bandage dresses are bandage dresses, right? Wrong!  The Fall/Winter collection was definitely something.  From warrior and equestrian-inspired pieces on dresses  to fringes and a not-so subtle sophisticated biker look, the collection is definitely on the wish lists of many […]

Beautiful Blingy Jewel Tones for Rebecca Minkoff

Rebecca Minkoff’s Fall/Winter 2012 collection was all about the bling without going too far.  The collection consisted of a wide range of different looks, ranging from biker jackets to blazers, ankle-length pants, mini-dresses and winter shorts, models strutted down with the runway to a live performance with confidence reminiscent of the supermodel era of the […]
