’10s in FASHION: the Rise of the Social Media Superstar
It’s hard to define something that completely surrounds you. Like trying to describe the taste of water or the smell of a perfume you’ve been wearing for years, the definition of this past decade in fashion has proven elusive. We’re sure in time for FASHION’s 50th we will be able to grab onto a few trends […]

6 epic biopics we can’t wait to see in 2016
Stylish costumes, moving soundtracks, real-life heartbreak. Musical biopics are the types of films that guarantee heaping helpings of all of the above and, over the last 10 years, have become a vehicle to help re-introduce legendary artists to new fans in a light that strays from the usual confines of a VH1 or TMZ. These […]

Oscars 2015: 40 of the best dressed stars on the red carpet
Well, it’s official: Awards show season is done and dusted. And now that the crown jewel of the red carpet has come and gone, what else is there to do besides cry into our failed Oscars ballots (We thought Boyhood was a shoe in, too). And rehash the show’s best moments (Gaga’s Sound of Music […]

The weekend in celebrity style: See who made our top 10 best dressed
This past weekend, celebrities showed us why they are the go-to inspiration for all things fashion. Whether it’s an award show that calls for Hollywood glamour or an event that asks for a hint of casual sexiness, there’s no question the A-lists have the sartorial game down pat. From last night’s Tony Awards to Spike TV’s Guy Choice Awards, we round up our top 10 best dressed celebrities to help make sure you’re wardrobe-ready for any event this summer.
Hosted by Hugh Jackman, Hollywood stars joined the best of Broadway to celebrate the 2014 Tony Awards last night in New York City. And judging from the red carpet scene, it’s definitely no Broadway without a bit of pizazz. Kate Mara worked a heavily embellished Dolce & Gabbana Fall 2014 dress, while Jennifer Hudson sparkled (literally) on stage for her performance in a sequin number. While the two stars had plenty of reasons to stand out from the crowd in their statement outfits, we couldn’t keep our off of Leighton Meester who looked completely smitten with hubby Adam Brody by her side for their first red carpet appearance.

People’s Choice Awards 2014: Our top 10 picks from the red carpet
See the People’s Choice Awards 2014 Red Carpet »
Awards season is upon us, so you better get ready for an hit of jealously-inducing glamour and perhaps a cringe-worthy outfit or two.
Things kicked off last night in Los Angeles with the People’s Choice Awards 2014. The red carpet was slim with A-List celebrities and some of those who did turn up had questionable choices (Heidi Klum we’re looking at you) If anything, last night gave us hope that winter will soon be over, and we too, shall be able to sport bare legs and strapless dresses. Fingers crossed.
Sandra Bullock, who cleaned up huge taking home five awards, seemed to be over this whole polar vortex thing and donned a bright floral number with her covetable sleek hair. Both Allison Williams and Kaley Cuoco shone in cobalt blue, while Jessica Alba stuck to a white strapless dress with grommets down the side for added edge. Naya Rivera accessorized her dress with a new blonde do, and we have to admit she rocked it. To everyone’s delight, and frankly, surprise, Britney Spears seems back on top in a stunning sparkly mini by Canada’s own, Mikael D. We just hope she continues down this very fashionable road to redemption, we haven’t forgotten that denim disaster.

Michael Kors and his high-powered pals support World Hunger Day with a fundraiser, bilboard takeover and more
See the God’s Love we Deliver event photos »
Last week, designer Michael Kors used his influence to fight the global hunger crisis on official World Hunger Day (October 16). Together with the World Food Programme, the day began with a cleverly orchestrated digital takeover of the billboards at Times Square, which streamed content that raised awareness of his Watch Hunger Stop campaign. The initiative encouraged the world to participate by spreading the word through social media, donating to the cause and purchasing a Kors-designed watch whose sale would fund 100 meals through the World Food Programme.
The designer has also been a huge advocate for God’s Love We Deliver; an organization that prepares tailored meals for people with severe illnesses in the city he calls home. Last year, a $5 million donation he made helped in the renovation of the organization’s facility, which in recognition was re-named to “The Michael Kors Building.” God’s Love We Deliver held its annual Golden Heart Awards to cap off World Food Day with stars from film, fashion, and political circles coming together to celebrate notable community contributions.

Oscars 2013 Beauty: JLaws, Jessica, Charlize and more! The top 4 trends in hair at the Academy Awards
See the top hair trends from the Oscars 2013 red carpet »
From side-parted curls to cropped cuts, hair at the 2013 Oscars played it safe—but with maximum results. Dare we say there was not a single bad hairstyle at last night’s award show? Three leading ladies—Jennifer Lawrence, Naomi Watts and Amanda Seyfriend—wore their blonde hair in similar styles on the Oscars red carpet: pulled into a low chignon with volume at the crown. This romantic look was more about loose texture than showing a sleek style, and considering that all three women have a bit of a natural wave to their hair it was a smart move by their hairstylists. When it comes to marathon events like the Academy Awards (which, from prep to afterparty can last for more than 15 hours) it’s always wise to choose a style that works with your natural hair texture—there’s simply too much time for anything else to fall flat or frizz out.

Oscars 2013: 20 of the red carpet’s best dressed at this year’s Academy Awards
See the best dressed on the Oscars 2013 red carpet »
The yearlong reign of Angelina’s Right Leg has officially come to an end. Oscars 2013’s fresh crop of red carpet wows is sure to erase that blunder from our minds, at least for a few days.
Last night’s red carpet was awash with the spectrum’s palest shades. From the serene to the layer cake-like, white and pale pink took top A-list honours. And starting at the very top, Academy Award winner for best actress, Jennifer Lawrence, did Christian Dior proud in her latest look from the house. Plucked from the house’s Spring 2013 couture collection, the frothy pale pink dress was a much more feminine look than we’re used to for Lawrence, but beautiful just the same. As for that pre-acceptance speech slip up the stairs? We’ll just file that, along with this list of her epic Oscars facial expressions, away with all the ways she’s endeared us to her. Another in the pink corner, was supporting actress award winner Anne Hathaway, who stunned in a sleek petal pink Prada dress. And where the extreme side-boob pleats made for some easy jokes by many, we are head-over-heels for the look, especially its open back detailing which Hathaway paired with Tiffany & Co. jewels worn backwards.
Charlize Theron made the strongest case for white, wearing one of the night’s best dresses, another Christian Dior Haute Couture, featuring a deep V-neck strapless cut and a slight peplum waist. Babe, to say the least. Also sporting pale shades, were Zoe Saldana, Kristen Stewart and Amanda Seyfried, in varying shades of grey and cream, and Oscars 2013 nominee Jessica Chastain, who did her best Jessica Rabbit in a stunning light copper and white custom Giorgio Armani dress.
And speaking of Armani! While the rest of red carpet season seemed to be deadset on introducing the world to younger talents like Erdem, Marios Schwab, Simone Rocha and Alexander Vaulthier, Giorgio Armani made a big statement last night, with Chastain, Naomi Watts and Quvenzhané Wallis helping to reclaim its red carpet domination.
So, who came out on-top? Vote in our Oscars 2013 red carpet poll!

Last Saturday night, Toronto’s historic Fort York was transformed into an enchanted spot fit for a diva. A diva and 500 of the city’s most well heeled (and well dressed) donors that is. Grammy and Oscar winning singer, actress and belter Jennifer Hudson headlined the first ever Bliss Ball marking 10 years of philanthropic work by the SickKids Foundation and the Dilawri Foundation. Also featuring Barenaked Ladies frontman Steven Page, who acted as host, Emmy award winning actor Martin Sheen who acted as auctioneer and supermodel and ex-Victoria’s Secret Angel Selita Ebanks who did her best Vanna White alongside Sheen, the night was star-studded, to say the least.
