According to a PDF of Toronto’s Yorkville area, it seems that Louis Vuitton is about to set up shop at 150 Bloor Street West, right next to Burberry. However, its current location on the south side of the street, next to Chanel remains on the form. Doesn’t this seem strange to you? Why would there […]
Today, Wednesday, May 25, 2011 is the day that Oprah airs her last show. I have watched her show on and off quite a bit over the past 25 years. I was only a little girl – 7 years old – when the show first began. I recall her early shows being more controversial, maybe […]

The unofficial start of summer next weekend marks not only the opening of cottages/summer homes and open toe shoes, but also being “officially” allowed to wear white as someone who isn’t a bride, flower girl or child taking her first communion. Little white dresses seem to be everywhere this season, and are, in a way, […]
I really don’t understand when some so-called fashionistas complain about magazines using celebrities instead of models on covers and inside of magazines.
