It’s a New Year, and with a whopping 300-something days ahead of us, so too come the many opportunities to start fresh. Kicking that old smoking habit or losing those pesky last 10lbs might be top of list for many. But instead of focusing only on ditching bad patterns, why not be proactive about starting a worthy new one?

I must say, I'm not so keen about the fine lines that have...

Tell us about you!

I live in Toronto and work full-time at ChickAdvisor as the graphic designer. Chicks might know me from my PUMA look-book campaigns or from my co-op here during summer 2012.

When it comes to my skincare weapon of choice, I like to keep it simple: I start with Pure + Simple Sensitive Skin Cleansing Milk and finish with

Let’s get serious for a minute. We all have those days when smallest imperfections come back to nag us, like that annoying ex boyfriend who won’t get the hint. It’s been just over a month ago since the Victoria’s Secret fashion show aired and I still cannot stop comparing myself to the perfect bodies of Miranda Kerr and Alessandra Ambrosio. 

Underwear brand Aerie is hoping to put...

It's the beginning of a new week, so obviously, you need to treat yourself to a little somethin' somethin'. If you need another reason, it's also Treat yourself Tuesday, so feel free to use that excuse. 

The bottom line is, sometimes you just need a pick me up and it doesn't have to be something that will break the bank. In fact, there are some KILLER new drugstore beauty products out that...

A fresh face of makeup is never complete without a quick application of eyeshadow. I personally have made it my mission to find an eyeshadow that works best for me. My latest obsession is with the Urban Decay Naked Palette. The shades are so simple to blend and make me feel like I actually know what I'm doing when it comes to applying makeup. But a girl can never have too many, which is why...

After dating for a while, the next logical step is to consider moving in together. At least that's where I am at with the current dude in my life. When the subject was first brought up, I was excited. I mean, my boyfriend is a pretty ok guy (I like him enough, I guess) and this felt like a real grown up step for the lady who once stated that her relationships almost never lasted longer than a bag...

During the Golden Globes last Sunday, there was one beauty combo we couldn't keep our eyes off of: the smoky eye and nude lip. We saw it interpreted by three ladies, each who pulled it off flawlessly. We love the contrast of the dark, dramatic eye with the subtle feminine lip. A nude lip can scare some people off, but don't freak yet. The trick is finding the perfect shade to match your come...

The other night, Jared Leto took home a Golden Globe for Best Supporting Actor and as he graced us with his presence on screen, I couldn't help but think: OMG HE LOOKS GOOD. Guess how old Jared is? Do it now in your head - and don't wikipedia him! 

He is 42.

This man is almost HALF A CENTURY OLD. Wut. How is it even possible? Dude looks gosh darn gooodddd and in honour of his flawless skin,...

Are you a #selfie taker? Fellow CA staff member Miranda is a selfie addict. I just caught her taking one as we got into the elevator on our way to lunch, just sayin'. I myself, am not a huge fan of selfies. They make me self conscious and usually I end up the one behind the lens instead. Of course, we're all our own worst critic. How many times have you snapped a selfie, checked it out and...
