Growing up, one of my favourite things about summer vacation was hitting up the local library and checking out as many books as I could jam into my backpack (shout-out to anyone who remembers being a VIP of this uber-exclusive club). There’s something about the arrival of summer weather that still revives my urge to […]

At first glance, Motorhead and Iron Maiden may not look like your typical fashion icons (salivating war-pigs and maniacal zombies seem a little far removed from Fashion Week, no?)—and yet, the aesthetic they pioneered has endured for the last 40-plus years, albeit within more alternative circles. The bad assery that comes along with wearing a gnarly, […]

There is no better time to indulge in designer cowboy boots than the annual Calgary Stampede (July 8-July 17). Known mostly for being a ten-day event packed with rodeos and carnival eats, it also becoming the stomping ground for attendees to bring their western fashion A-games (not limited to the Canadian Tuxedo!). To make yourself […]

It’s safe to assume that at some point in our lives we will butcher the pronunciation of a name to the point of no return (I’ve done it before, and often have my own name mispronounced, which results in major LOLs and sometimes SMHs). Now that fashion month has wrapped up, we’ve put together a primer […]

After what seems like a hundred seasons of “no makeup” makeup dominating the runways, the Spring 2016 shows brought back something we’d been seriously missing—fun. And colour! If you can believe it, models wore actual makeup. Yes, as in more than just a quick swipe of moisturizer. So what better way to kick off the […]

If North West is spotted in one, it must be a trend. Sure the choker has always been kind of cool but face it, North has a pretty fantastic and reputable team of fashion advisers surrounding her. Remember, it was daddy Kanye who originally pitched leather track pants to Fendi and that trend has been […]

Of all the newness that blew across the four fashion capitals during fashion month, femininity, nostalgia and whimsy whipped up the biggest buzz when it comes to Spring fashion 2016. The ‘80s obsession that has defined recent seasons is no longer the decade du jour. Pouf skirts and shoulder pads have been deflated and replaced […]

Ok, sure, Kanye’s 1,000-bodied, Madison Square Garden-staged Yeezy season 3 presentation may have broken the internet (you guys, Kim was there, but isn’t she everywhere?). But it was definitely not the most important event this fashion month so far. If you weren’t invited to Saint Laurent’s Wednesday night spectacle at the Hollywood Palladium (or desperately […]

It’s 70% off season, which means that it’s the most wonderful time of year for sale hounds. What better time to score the perfect suede trench or boss bitch blazer? But since you are probably all getting tired of clicking on said wanted sale item and seeing that it is unavailable in our size, we’ve […]

We may be smack dab in the middle of winter but with a slew of fashion brands debuting their Spring 2016 campaigns, warmer, happier days don’t seem too far away. Fashion ads are notorious for their shock effect with many potential to go viral and generate talk on the world wide web. Looking at the […]

The first tremors were felt on the red carpet: Taylor Swift sported sequined houndstooth parachute pants at the VMAs; Kerry Washington flaunted a brash metal mesh dress with sharp shoulder pads, evocative of Krystle Carrington à la Dynasty, at the Emmys; and Rihanna rocked a bubble-gum pink lace confection for her fragrance launch, RiRi, at […]

We look to the stars for answers (or at least some understanding) to our life, everything from love to career to style every time the new month rolls around. With probably the best time of the year slowly creeping up on us, why shouldn’t we ask the stars to help us take the guessing game […]
