Anyone knows me from Shorty Stories (and probably from this site, too), knows that I have rather small feet at size 5. One of my go-to brands when it comes to shoes is Stuart Weitzman. His shoes are almost always available in size 5, sometimes even smaller. So when the first Stuart Weitzman boutique opened […]
Well, sort of, anyway. A capsule collection, curated by Tommy Ton, opened at the Bay on Queen Street in Toronto on June 29, one day earlier than originally planned. The collection consists of Tommy Ton’s favourite TopShop pieces will be at the store until the first OFFICIAL location opens at Yorkdale’s Bay store in September. […]

First off, I don’t usually write about celebrities, especially so-called “celebutantes.” It’s just not my thing. Most don’t seem to give off such a “sophisticated” vibe to me. Thus, I was debating whether to post this in the “entertainment” or “style” section. Since people seem to watch Paris Hilton for entertainment purposes rather than […]
