Blythe blouse 3 different ways
My favourite gift that I received over the holidays was this loose 100 per cent silk Blythe blouse ($114) from J.Crew – shown below in a vivid purple. Over the last year this slouchy equipment-style blouse kept popping up, and this is one trend I hope never fizzles out. It’s the perfect balance of looking pulled [...]

Hot hue: Crushing on pumpkin
I love having “crushes” on colours. Aside from the fact that wearing a shade out of your comfort zone can be invigorating (and perhaps net you a few compliments), it’s one of the easiest ways to distil something from the runway without sinking into debt or feeling left out. One of my favourite shows is [...]

We love: Opulent studded earrings
I think I’ve made it pretty clear on this blog that my two fashion weaknesses/obsessions are anything sparkly and bold jewelry. I just can’t quit them.

J.Crew’s landed on Canadian soil—finally!
The American fashion retailer J.Crew has finally opened a store in Canada. Can I get an AMEN!?!

The store had its grand opening at Toronto’s Yorkdale Shopping Centre Wednesday [...]

J.Crew coming to Canada!
At long last, I can shout it from the rooftops: J.Crew will be making its Canadian debut this August at Yorkdale Mall in Toronto. !!!! The store will boast 5,000 square feet of the brand’s beloved goods, including shoes, jewelry, their wildly popular Perfect Shirts and more. A few pieces from their higher-end Collection label [...]

J.Crew-inspired for less.
I’ve been obsessed with these boots for a while. The suede Flannery platform ankle boots from J.Crew are downright gorgeous. I’m imagined all the ways they’d slip into my wardrobe (rolled jeans, cropped pants, printed dresses with tights) and how nicely they would prop themselves up by my door, waiting to go for a walk.

Pants with pleats are flattering?
My perfect pleated pants It’s true! There’s a good chance you’re thinking I’ve got a screw loose somewhere, but if there’s anything I’ve learned about fashion is that you’re constantly being challenged to see something in a new light. Sometimes these revelations develop into lustful affections and true love. It happened with our senior editor [...]
