Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basI recently had a mini vacay and took a few days to jet off to NYC. It was not only my first time in NYC, but also my first time ever having a cancelled flight! Joy! I prefer to stay positive though, and heck, it wasn't all that bad. I had a magazine, a friend, some snacks and a few hours to kill. It could have been a lot worse.
Sure, it wasn't the easy going, smooth end to a vacation that I...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basEven though it's mid August, in my mind, it's the first week of July and I've got my whole summer ahead of me. Say what you will; that I'm "in denial" or what have you, but I refuse to let go of summer until it hits less than 5 degrees.
In my efforts to avoid fall at all costs, I like prolong the time before necessary 'jacket wearing weather'. Seriously, whoever said...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basLast week, Mandy and I played twins and sqaured off, both posing in white lace. However, we each put our own spin on it. While Mandy rocked some white lace shorts, I wore my lace trumpet skirt. This week, we're going to be doing the same thing, only our trend of the moment is... printed pants!
Now, I love me a good pair of printed pants (a la PJ style, see evidence here). However, Mandy...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basThe 2012 Summer Olympics, taking place in London, England, are just one day away and even though I'm not exactly an avid sports watcher, I'm pretty pumped for them. It might just have more to do with the athlete eye candy than the medals (shh, don't tell anyone).
In honour of the Olympics, we thought we'd shine the street style spotlight on London. The U.K. has...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basRazzle-dazzle, glitter, shimmer, twinkle and sparkle. Yup, those are a lot of synonyms for one great accessory. Let loose, experiment and pull your outfit together with an embellished belt that is sure to turn some heads, or at least create some excitement around humdrum denim.
Play on the colors and pattern of clothes with a trendy belt like Andrew Gn. Mix neutrals and pastels with a daring...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basFollow these chic things' lead and add some interest to a basic, black mini by donning a pair of bold, graphic stockings. Spotted at LG Fashion Week, these legs were made for the front row.
How long do the legs on this lovely look? Her tights have a slight bondage feel, and we love how she paired such sexy legwear with such a whimsical top and kept the rest of her look simple and tailored.

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basLast week at LG Fashion Week in Toronto we spotted plenty of rolled cuffs on boys, often with a statement sock (yes, we are going to call jazzy, attention grabbing socks worn by boys this) and a soft leather shoe. These ladies may not be rocking the statement sock with their rolled cuffs, but they're definitely saying something.
This is an exercise in contrasts. From a contrast of colour (the...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basHere's the skinny on the super-thin belt: It is a woman's best friend when it comes to defining the waistline of a loose or layered look or creating a pop of colour in a more muted ensemble. Designers for spring used it in all manner of ways and while it definitely has the potential to be utilitarian through belt loops, it's often suited more to finishing a look or breaking up a...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basLast week at LG Fashion Week we may have been looking ahead to fall, but these two ladies jolted us back to the past with their retro style, vintage looking pieces and rich red lips.
The two pieces that immediately caught our attention were the gorgeous zig zag fur with draped collar and the framed red purse with chic hardwear. Now as we look at these images we see how well the simple white shirt,...
