Toronto Premium Outlets at Halton Hills

…what a disappointment!  I spent much of Friday up there, just to see what it was all about.  After all, the mall has been around for more than a year.  I knew, going in, not to expect Woodbury Common in New York, but I wasn’t thinking that it would be DREADFUL, either.  Especially the food […]

Stores That Need to Come to Yorkville!

With all the construction in Yorkville, I’m amazed people are still coming.  But I think the nasty construction in the area is deterring some stores from opening here sooner.  That, and, of course, the lack of space (which is an issue in other parts of downtown Toronto as well).  But now that Nine West is […]

New York Fashion Week: February 6-13

New York Fashion Week starts today!  Though we will not be in New York to see the shows in person, we will be watching online and will post reviews for the Fall 2014 collections on selected designers either the day of the showing or the following day, depending on whether we catch the show live.  […]

New York Fashion Week Starts Today!

And like previous seasons, DelectablyChic! will be covering some of the shows remotely (watching online), including BCBG, Nanette Lepore and Tory Burch.  We are hoping to post a review of at least one show a day. Will you be watching any of the shows?  Which designer are you most looking forward to seeing?  Or will […]

Embellished Tops and Bishop Sleeves at Tory Burch

Presented off site in what looked like a hotel ballroom, glamorous looks were definitely expected, whether it is colour saturated or basic black.  It’s always best when designers don’t over-do the black for their fall/winter lines, and this was definitely the case with Tory Burch. While there is black in the collection (there has to […]

New York Fashion Week – Starts Today!

DelectablyChic! will, once again, be covering some of New York Fashion Week’s shows, which start today.  Look for write-ups and reviews of collections from BCBG MaxAzria, Tory Burch, Nanette Lepore and more.  We will attempt to review at least one show a day. Depending on our schedule and show schedules, highlights and reviews will be […]

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- […]

Tory Burch Spring/Summer 2013

Tory Burch’s Spring/Summer 2013 collection focuses on bright colours – citrons, blues and corals, specifically – as well as patterns and detailing, such as fringed hemlines.  Though very lively, it was at the same time, subtle enough not to be too distracting and great for warm weather-related events such as garden parties and luncheons on […]

Big Names, ‘Unknowns’ and Label Snobs

I have to admit that my closet is a mix of both bigger name brands and independents/up-and-coming lines.  I’d prefer if I’d had more of the latter, but access is often an issue.  Even the up-and-coming lines that make it to FAT or Toronto Fashion Week are already at least somewhat known, especially to those […]
