Instagram has definitely come under fire in recent years for its algorithm changes. Despite a plethora of updates, users of the photo-sharing app aren’t seeing the one change they’ve been repeatedly asking for: chronological order. It really begs the question, why is Insta STILL ignoring us?! There’s been plenty of upset on social media, with […]

gift ideas for women »

Somehow, shopping for the leading ladies in our lives often proves to be the hardest. The challenge for Christmas gift ideas is to be creative, on trend, and meaningful—not the easiest task, but a necessary one. If you’re shopping for your girlfriend, wife, sister or mother, it’s essential to make the gift matter and worth every penny spent.

For Christmas 2012, we’ve dreamt of all things lavish and luxe that can double as a satisfaction to a women’s fashion craving as well as functional piece in her every day life and they are anything but traditional. We know that diamonds have been declared a girl’s best friend, but this year we’re thinking outside of the little blue box and selecting gifts that show creativity. We’ve opted for lush fur pieces that will keep her warm all winter, geometric shaped cuffs that will reinvent the arm party, and even a onsesie that just begs to be taken to a ski resort. These are the pieces that will win a woman’s heart.

Victoria Beckham‘s collections keep getting better and better. With husband David Beckham beaming from the front row, her new take on tailoring expands her offering beyond the beautiful, but now expected body-con dresses, into tailored separates territory. A pimento mini skirted suit and simple long-sleeve car coat stood out among the otherwise black and white palette.

As the latest in its slew of charity initiatives, Holt Renfrew has launched another exclusive: a collection of Tory Burch–designed FEED bags. What’s FEED, you ask? It’s the six-years-young initiative headed up by the familially blessed model-come-do-gooder Lauren Bush Lauren, which creates and sells products with proceeds from each going to help fight world hunger. It’s as simple as this: Buy a FEED bag, feed many. Added bonus? The Holt Renfrew edition is only $50!

When Bush Lauren hit Toronto earlier this month for the launch of the special-edition bags, we asked her to open up her own.
