See Fall 2014 Couture-inspired outfits for everyday wear »

Fall 2014 Couture week has officially wrapped in Paris, and we’ve been daydreaming of the Pinterest-worthy dresses ever since. Although there are times when the designs are truly too outrageous for everyday wear and at a price point that is way above an average person’s budget (mainly the latter), we can’t deny our love and lust for these runway masterpieces. Thanks to celebrities and some very lucky street style stars, we can get a glimpse of couture in all its high-fashion glory. But before you raise your white flag and think couture is only for the elites, we’d like to let you know that you too can get on the action. How? As we round up our 10 favourite dresses from Fall 2014 Couture week, we scour our fave e-commerce sites and tracked down 10 couture-inspired designs for everyday wear. You’re welcome.

Fashionable bridesmaid dresses coming right up! »

Weddings are S-T-R-E-S-S-F-U-L. Between the vows, venue, flowers, food, guest list and gown, wedding plans have a way of taking over your life. And maybe that’s to be expected…a little. After all, it’s your wedding. You want it to be great! And that’s why you’ve asked some of your closest friends (and that one cousin your mom insisted you include) to be a special part of the big day. But how stressful do you want your wedding plans to be for them?

They’re already planning the shower and the bachelorette party and have marked off a big summer weekend to celebrate your love. Are you really going to make them do it in something that looks like leftover curtain fabric? We’ve assembled a handy list of beautiful, flattering, fashionable bridesmaid dresses that won’t make anyone rethink that fateful day their friend requested them after a second-year keg party. And these dresses will look gorgeous grouped together next to you and your life-partner-to-be! To keep things extra-friendly, we’ve included cheaper versions of dresses over $150. Celebrating your union shouldn’t leave anyone bankrupt, and it doesn’t have to!

See what to wear for Pride Week »

World Pride Week may have technically kicked off last Friday, but judging from all the festivities happening right now in Toronto, the party shows no signs of slowing down, especially with the Celebration of Love Grand Pride Wedding taking place at Casa Loma this afternoon.

See our list of wardrobe upgrades »

By a certain age, it’s safe to assume that any fashion-minded woman would own at least a few wardrobe staples. The little black dress that takes you from day to night? Check. The quintessential It bag you’ve dreamed about since childhood? Check (if you’re lucky). But now that you’ve got ’em, what’s next? With summer in full swing (and sales going on everywhere), there’s no better time to upgrade. From fun statement heels to chic varsity jackets to this season’s much-coveted ’90s slip dress, we draw up a list of 10 new classics every woman should have in their wardrobe. Still hankering for a breakdown of practical buys? We’ve got a solid list that will last a lifetime, too.

Meet 5 of summer 2014’s fashion trends »

For better or worse, fashion is a revolving door of must-have items. Each season, a subtle shift in silhouette represents a shift in covetable items—the mini skirt made way for the midi skirt last fall, bringing with it the advent of the flat slip-on, the cropped jacket and so on and so forth.

This season, a few items emerge as must-haves to match summer 2014 fashion trends. Some are retakes on last year’s bets and some are wholly new. Here, we break down what they are, where they came from and how to wear ‘em. For good measure, we threw in some shopping suggestions too.

Earlier this year, Le Château opened a store inside the biggest mall in the world. Nope, we’re not talking about the West Edmonton Mall or even one of the shopping behemoths in the United States. The Canadian retailer headed east—to the Middle East!—to set up shop at the Dubai Mall.

It’s no stretch to call the Dubai Mall, which has over 1,200 stores, a major international fashion hub. From Galeries Lafayette and Bloomingdale’s to stand-alone stores for every (seriously, every) luxury brand imaginable, the mall has brought together destination shopping experiences from around the world—making Le Château’s presence there all the more significant.

It’s safe to say that this fashion capital has good shopping on lock. From High Street to Shoreditch, London bursts with wallet-tempting options. It’s also home to some of the world’s best department stores, including names as posh as Harrod’s, Harvey Nichols and Selfridge’s. To help you wade through the vast options, we’ve narrowed it down to our 8 favourite stores to hit while in Londontown. By no means are these all there is, they’re just pretty damn great.

See all 20 exclusive styles of Stuart Weitzman 5050 boot »

It’s been 20 years since the iconic 5050 riding boot from Stuart Weitzman hit the scene and garnered a cult-like following. To celebrate this milestone, the designer partnered with Gilt.com and created a capsule collection of 20 styles of 5050 boot to be sold over 20 days on the exclusive site.

To kick off the digital pop-up shop and toast the boot’s anniversary, a star-studded party was thrown last Wednesday in New York City. Notable names like Olivia Palermo, Padma Lakshmi and Miranda Kerr were decked out in their favourite 5050 boots and guests were treated to a display of the 20 exclusive styles, all available to try on. Stuart Weitzman sprinkled a little dazzle on the celebration by introducing a custom crafted boot, The Safari, made up of 25,000 Swarovski crystals hand-set in a leopard pattern.

But back to the online sale! Launched on October 17, the Gilt.com collection includes styles that boot lovers have come to expect, such as black patent and nappa leather. There are also seven suede finishes available, ranging from neutral hues like brown and taupe, to rich jewel tones including forest-green, blue and purple. Stuart Weitzman has also introduced new textures and prints, including a cognac-coloured leopard print, black and white zebra and an embellished crystal snake pattern. While the 5050 boot ranges from $598 and up, the aforementioned Swarovski-set Safari pair comes at the ultimate splurge of $10,000.

Summer is fast approaching and that can only mean one thing—the start of the season’s hottest events. With multiple can’t-miss functions occurring around the globe, we want to make sure your wardrobe is ready. From music festivals like Glastonbury to the U.S. Open to the Cannes Film Festival, we have your guide to arriving in style.
