Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basWe at ChickAdvisor love a great heel. They make our legs look long and lean and they give our derrières a bit of a lift; we even walk better when we wear them! But heels can put a serious cramp in our style (emphasis on the cramp). Walking around all day in heels is tough! It's enough to make a lady give 'em up all together and stick to trusty old ballerina flats!
Which is why I...

I am about to freak you out. Here goes: Thanksgiving (for us Canadian chicks) is only about two weeks away. I KNOW, RIGHT?
But hey, it's cool. You know why? Two words: Pumpkin. Pie. I love me some pumpkin pie and I love me a great, cleansing face mask. And this got me thinking, can I fuse my two loves together? Which brings me to today's DIY...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basMaybe I shouldn't admit this but I just can't hold it in any longer. Ttruth is, lately I can't be bothered with my hair. If you look back into past pose offs or articles, I almost always have my hair down. But for the past few months, my locks have been permanently locked (I know, I know, I'm bad) into a top knot style. I love a good bun. Seriously. They're just so much...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basThe spring 2013 shows at NYFW brought some gorgeous and drool-worthy fashion. And when it came to nail art, I was not disappointed. I'm so impressed by how continually creative and innovative designers can get with nail art! Just when you think you've seen it all (i.e. remember the caviar mani?), they come out with something even cooler.
I took a look at some of the nail art this...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basI'm a lady (okay, saying 'lady' is debatable) with considerable experience in applying, talking about and buying makeup. So when I first caught wind of the 'No Mirror Makeup Challenge' videos going around on YouTube, I admit that I thought to myself: "Who are these newbies? Psshhh, I could totally do that, no prob!".
If you haven't seen any of these videos or if you...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basThe other day I was running late, rushing out from work to meet friends for dinner and I had no time to go home or freshen up or change my clothes. This isn't anything out of the ordinary for me. I'm usually running around from one place to another and this tends to take a toll on my makeup. Showing up to a friend's birthday dinner dripping in sweat is a regular occurrence for me....

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basI feel like eye shadow is underrated. It's one of my favourite makeup products because of all the possibilities and how much fun you can have with it. I don't think enough people really appreciate it! But with the jewel tone trend and major smoky eye effect we're seeing this fall, I'm hoping that eye shadow gets a serious boost in popularity.
With all the shadow I'm...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basPeople Magazine just came out with their list of the 10 best dressed ladies in Hollywood, but I have to say, I am a little perplexed. I hate to say it, but I'm not sure if all these starlets are deserving of their spot on the top 10 list. Mixed feelings for Gwyneth aside, I appreciate her sense of style. But, number one? Meh. I'm not buying it. I'm wasn't sure if I...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basNew York Fashion Week recently wrapped up it's spring 2013 shows. I love fashion week because it's a chance for me to build my fantasy closet. Don't we all have one of those? I like to take note of my favourite styles and daydream about how lovely I would look in them. Yes, I can't afford anything and no, that doesn't stop me from thinking about them. Le sigh...
Here are my...
