The only thing better than Saskia de Brauw is Saskia de Brauw in a menswear campaign. Here she is for Saint Laurent Men's. Never thought I'd say this but: hat's off to you, Hedi Slimane. [Fashionologie] Have you ever seen someone with eyelash extensions? It looks like what I imagine eyelashes must be like […]
It's not often that we talk about men's clothing and it's even less often that we talk about celebrity men's threads, but fellow Canucks, there is a dangerous fashion felon in our midst and he goes by the name of Justin Bieber. Over the weekend, Justin Bieber had the honour of meeting the Prime Minister Stephen […]
If strict deadlines are the bane of creativity, we can give supposedly bi-annual art/culture/fashion publication Doingbird a pass for its lengthy hiatus. For the magazine’s long-awaited 16th issue, publisher, photographer and all-round creative hotshot Max Doyle has shot Julia Nobis as part of a kaleidoscopically coloured editorial also featuring rising Melbourne model Sophie “Hirschy” Hirschfelder. Both girls […]
As promised, Karlie Kloss shot a commercial for one of this season's most legitimately interesting designer collaborations, the Neiman Marcus and Target Holiday 24 Collection. The two retailers have tapped 24 CFDA designers to create a 50+ item capsule range which'll be available at both stores. Do you love cool stuff? Do you love American designers? […]
Dear Reader, Today is the day retailers and marketers refer to as Cyber Monday, Black Friday's little brother. Cyber Monday doesn't have everything all figured out, but the kid's got a lot of pluck. He could even one day surpass his big sister, Black Friday. I wouldn't be surprised at all. There are so many […]
Don't freak out, that's just makeup. But it makes me feel devoted and nurturing and caring. I almost like him more this way. Do you know what I mean? No? Okay. [DailyStab] You could also be wearing red lipstick right now. If only you knew how to apply it. Oh wait. [BellaSugar] I […]
It’s that time of the year again when you really HAVE to buy new footwear out of necessity and not just indulgence. So, it should be some on-trend winter boots as well as a pair of hot party heels that are taking precedence on your shopping lists right now. Finding the perfect pair of winter […]
Sure, you can make the jump over the border to snap up the States' famed Black Friday deals, but why make the journey when there are some fashionable bargains to be had on your doorstep? Whether you're looking for some Christmas gift ideas on Black Friday, or have your eye on a new LCD TV […]
Topshop has found its latest designer gem in Aussie-born, London-based jeweller extraordinaire Jordan Askill. Amidst being nominated for a British Fashion Award, winning an Elle Style one, having Bond girls parade his fine craft down the red carpet, and creating a slew of short films and art sculptures, Askill has designed a seven-piece capsule collection […]
As a present for their 1969 wedding, Yoko Ono gave John Lennon a stack of sketches called "Fashions for Men." It was, I kid you not, inspired by his "sexy bod." Yes, that's a quote! Say what you want about Yoko*, but NO WONDER Lennon was so crazy about her: she liked him a lot […]
Sneakers have always been a necessary evil for us gym bunnies, but I often think when it comes to style, there are only ever two choices: plain Jane blacks and whites or Chris Brown hip-hop clodhoppers. With that in mind, have you ever thought of designing your own? Well now you can thanks to the […]
At an age most people are navigating one mistake at a time, Talia Shuvalov is weaving together a reputation as one of the most exciting young designers on the scene. She trained at Sydney’s University of Technology before sojourning in London to intern for Alexander McQueen, and was shortly after seized by the discerning hand […]
Diane Von Furstenberg just released a video to announce the CFDA and Vogue initiative to raise money for Hurricane Sandy relief. The only thing DVF and Anna Wintour love more than American fashion is "mobilizing" the fashion industry to "raise funds" for stuff like presidential politics or natural disasters. I don't want to be overly […]
It's obvious that Lady Gaga and Terry Richardson are just trolling me personally at this point, because there can be no other explanation for the clip the duo's just released, to tease the upcoming video for Gaga's song, "Cake." It's filmed by Terry (of course), one of the most villanous villians in all of fashionland, […]
Kate Upton was born to be in a Super Bowl commercial: she is so bright and shiny, vaguely tomboyish but still extremely feminine and blond. Her hair bounces. She looks like she really, really likes puppies. I will not discuss her bosom, except to say that it's the center of a lot of attention (for […]
Karlie Kloss did the Target x Neiman Marcus holiday collection campaign. There's a behind-the-scenes video. You're welcome to watch it. [Fashionologie] Here's a DIY project for you, because I care: make your own Chanel-inspired pyrite jewelry. [FabSugar] Jessica Biel did a caviar manicure because I asked nicely. [BellaSugar] Lindsay Lohan kind of […]
Just like every other person that watched The September Issue, I really like Grace Coddington. What is there not to like? In the film, she comes across as principled, intelligent, sincere. As adorable as a Vogue editor can be. Really though, Grace shares these positive qualities with lots of other wonderful people, and the only […]
"You know they ask you questions. Just an example: 'What do you wear to bed?' … So I said, 'Chanel No. 5!' Because it's the truth! And yet I don't want to say 'nude,' you know?" [Fashionologie] Twilight needs to stop having premieres. Its cast looks fashioned out. [FabSugar] Remember when Twilight was […]

As of today, you can finally shop Yorkdale mall's new 145,000 square foot expansion!

I hate to be the one to break it to you, but Chanel will actually go ahead and first produce and then sell a scaled-down version of the now-iconic hula hoop bag we saw on the Spring 2013 runway. It only follows that some people will proceed to buy the bag at the store, where […]
