Inspired by David Hockney’s Fresh Flowers exhibit at the ROM and looks from Mary Katrantzou and Jil Sander’s Fall 2011 collections, we put together a bouquet of fresh florals to take you through the season.

Meaning: cat lover (in the swish Greek lexicon)

Usage: “An ailurophile can’t be curious; she could never kill a cat.” ― a terrible joke I made up

Everyone’s favourite cat fashion calendar is back for another year. United Bamboo‘s 2011 calendar is ready for pre-order for US$50.

The first time I interviewed makeup artist Dick Page was in 2004. I had sent emails to him asking for a phone interview and assumed they had just gone into a black hole where requests from Canadian editors went to die. But while working late one night, my phone rang. When I answered, the voice on the other end announced, “Hi Lesa, it’s Dick Page” and I managed to not fall out of my chair. Hearing him describe makeup inspirations and applications was unlike anything I’d ever encountered; it was poetic. I even put my head down on my desk afterwards, the experience was so enthralling.

Our cats would enact some horrible revenge on our shoes if we ever committed such an atrocity, so kudos to you, United Bamboo. You can pre-order your calendar now. (We already have.)
