This summer, we were obsessed with orange. You can see the vibrant colour everywhere from the runway to the streets. The trend has trickled down from designers like Prada to stores like H&M and Old Navy. Here are some runway examples of bright, bold oranges.
Orange is fabulous colour (and not just because I, personally, look good in it); it is flattering on almost everyone and brings great colour...

This week while shooting street style, I came across a whole whack of different styles and interpretations of trends. Here we have boho chic done in a vintage 70's way, a floral print in a fresh perspective, and summer linens in a fabulously cut dress! All these three ladies- Siobhan, Steph and Sarah, look awesome and their individuality is what we're celebrating this week!


Siobhan...

This past Tuesday night at 8pm we settled down to watch Pretty Little Liars and it was a pretty intense episode. So intense that we had to live tweet the episode as well! One girl stood out with her laid back, funky outfit in the outfit and that was Aria. 

Aria wore a cute white dress, belted with riding boots and accessorised with feather earrings and a gemstone chunky necklace. Wanna...

The other day we posted on our Facebook page that some of the Chick staff had just finished reading The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins. We had a quite the response and even now when anyone in the office mentions the book, we start the discussion all over again! 

Jenni says that The Hunger Games is the dessert to Harry Potter while Tammy believes the book has a raw edge...

In early July, we posted a forum on Katy Perry's new ginger hair colour. Some of us loved it like member jwitt who thought she still looked adorable. Others like member Becky were still loving her original raven haired locks. 

At the Smurfs movie premiere, Katy debuted not just a dress that had us in a tizzy but new blonde hair as well. 

Katy has done it again,...

As a child, Tyra Banks and Cindy Crawford were the two most beautiful women in the world to me.  Their beauty and lives seemed so unattainable. Then in college, I answered a call for model scouts with an agency in Toronto. Have you ever wondered how the gorgeous and Canadian Coco Rocha became the gorgeous Coco Rocha? Or how Jessica Stam, the face of Aldo became the Jessica Stam, face of...

It seems that we've collectively become obsessed with prints and patterns. Walk into any Forever 21 or H&M if you don't believe me. As far as street style goes, you can't go down Queen Street in Toronto for five minutes without bumping into a few ladies wearing a print. However, we think we've found a few exceptional print-wearing girls for this week's Street Style. 

It is...

Confession: I am having a love affair with Jeffrey Campbell. His shoes, not him personally. His signature platform styles and chunky heels not only make your legs look a thousand times better, but make your outfit look a thousand times chicer. Jeffrey Campbell shoes are outrageous; you can find them in wild prints and bright colours (a personal favourite are the glittered platforms which are to...

Don’t get me wrong, I’m a hardcore Toronto Gal! However, sometimes, I do find myself drawn to history, tradition and of course poutine of Quebec or the easy going beach bums and mild weather native to Vancouver Island. This summer, I urge you to travel across Canada. You'll be surprised at how varied the culture is from province to province. Discover a whole new way of living on the other...

With a docket of sure to be blockbuster movies on their way out and two magazine covers this summer, Emma Stone has come a long way in just four years from her breakout role in Superbad. From looking adorable in casual skinny jeans to looking like a hot tamale in form fitting dresses; we’d be super jealous of Emma if she didn’t make us laugh to hard!
