Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basI love lounging on the beach. Yet sometimes, I have qualms about showing off too much skin in a bikini. I prefer a little modesty. For this, I bust out my cover up. They come in especially handy on a trip to the snack bar or the washroom, and I totally wear them off the beach too for easy, breezy summer style.
If you're up for the challenge, a beach cover up is super simple to DIY. I found...

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 basMajor fashion news: being a slob is now cool.
Seriously. Sloppy, disheveled, hot mess is now a style. And, I'm kind of happy about it. I mean, if I can be comfy and lounge around and still be considered trendy, then I'm a happy (albeit lazy) camper!
Proving that slob = cool, designers showed loose fitting, draping clothes. Paying an homage to grunge (the ultimate lazy fashion),...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basThe last time I wore heels for an extended period of time, I ended up with three blisters and two ruined soles. It was not a good day. That being said, while I haven't given up on high heels entirely, I'm not exactly going to be wearing them out all day any time soon. My heels are strictly bar to car from now on.
With the season of summer vacays, festivals and beaching upon us,...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basWhen it gets to the point in summer where you step outside and immediately start sweating profusely, it's easy to reach for the same summer uniform again and again. It's comfortable and you don't have to think. Here's the issue though: you aren't looking as fabulous as you could.
You chicks are adorable little creatures, so why aren't you showing it off?
With a...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basOh, Miley. Whenever I see a photo of Miley Cyrus, I am usually equal parts cringing and envious. This occasion is no exception.
Is this outfit just as confused as I am? Before I pass judgment, take a gander for yourself:
Yup, that's leather on top and then a combination sweatpant/denim bottom. So many textures, so many focal points, it's a dizzying array and I'm not sure I can...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basA dress that can be worn more than one way? A fabulous shoe that can be dressed up or down? I'm totally on board. I love a great multi-tasking product that delivers great bang for your buck and can be worked a few different ways to carry you through a few different outfits.

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basMy signature style is a little out of the box, some quirkiness thrown in, and I like to experiment too.
But now I must confess I've defected lately. I can't get enough of simple, clean lines and little to no embellishments. Black and white colour blocking with interesting cuts are taking place of my usual patterns and bold colours.
This summer, I am all about the new minimalism

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basThe summer in Toronto is hot and the humidity makes it so that you don't even want to leave your air conditioned house. Or, if you are like me and don't have air conditioning, you actually look forward to going to work so you can get a break from the non stop, intense heat. So, short shorts it is!
Then, it gets cooler at night and you're left shivering in short...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basGals, something weird is happening. Something that hasn't happened since the 90's. Overalls are coming back into style. (Gasp!)
It started last fall 2012, but designers keep trying to make overalls happen. They've even been in the spring/summer collections for 2013:

They've even expanded...
