Oh When All Saints Comes Marching In...

Nobody does urban cool quite like All Saints. The brand launched in 1994 on All Saints Road in Notting Hill, London and now operates stores in New York, LA, San Francisco, Paris, Berlin and beyond.  Canadian girls were feeling a little left out but no longer, because All Saints finally opens at Yorkdale Mall this Thursday! Yay! Yay! Yay! (No, I'm not April Fool-ing you, this is for real.) For spring, the collection is full of sleek leather separates, beautifully-cut toppers and killer boots that will make your entire wardrobe. And while the brand errs on the expensive side, a singular piece from the collection can change the way you dress.

Have you ever shopped at All Saints? If you haven't, I think you will love.  Don't you want to wear your trench exactly like the girl on the far right, right now? See you at the checkout - but first I need to figure out what I can Kijiji to afford that biker bomber.  Hmmmm...

Hope you had a great Easter weekend! xx

Toronto Fashion Week: Our Top 13 Fall Looks

World MasterCard Fashion Week has come and gone but we’ve been left with loads of pieces to covet from the Fall ‘13 collections. Check out my Top Looks from Toronto Fashion Week at iVillage.ca this week to get you sartorially stoked for Fall.

Computer issues and a mega deadline time crunch meant that I couldn't post my own pics this week. Mea culpa! Please forgive me...will post them first thing next week. Until then, I'm off to see what's in that big bad bag labeled 'Mini Eggs'.  Wouldn't want to let the wee ones indulge before testing them out ;) #takingonefortheteam

Happy, happy Easter, bunnies! Hope it's spring-y wherever you are...

Back in Black: The Joe Fresh Fall '13 Show


Canadian supermodel Heather Marks goes Parisian punk at the Joe Fresh Fall 2013 show


The crazy pre-show scene at World MasterCard Fashion Week

My mad matchy-matchiness from last night (Joe himself approved - yes!)

I'm back from World MasterCard Fashion Week and ready to sort out all of my pics from the tents but before I do, had to post photos from last night's Joe Fresh show.  For Fall '13, Joe Mimran was influenced by Paris, the Sex Pistols, and the '90s punk movement, done up almost entirely in black -  a decided departure from the happy brights so synonymous with Joe Fresh.

Though maybe not as universally likeable a collection, it was a really nice change of pace for the brand and I loved the edginess of it all. The studded pieces, the white chunky turtleneck and that liquid black blazer will all be moving into my closet come Fall.  Thoughts? Loves? Leave your comments below and let me know!

Check back soon for more Fashion Week pics from David Dixon, LINE Knitwear, Mackage (amazing show) and more, plus street style snaps I shot at the tents, and a few pics of what I wore. K, time to nap - last night's after-party completely did me in. Zzzz....

Something must be in the air this week because yet another retailer is going online.  This time, I was especially thrilled because said retailer is Pink Tartan, Kimberley Newport-Mimran's extended closet full of luxe, sophisticated sportswear and chic accessories.  The site launches tomorrow and will ship to Canada, the U.S and internationally.  #trouble

Visit pinktartan.com and check out the gorgeous behind-the-scenes video below to get properly tempted. Can't wait for the Fall '13 show next week at World MasterCard Fashion Week - will be sure to take lots of pics xx

When it comes to gifting, practicality becomes a bit of a bad word around my house.  I could definitely use a new blender and we definitely need laundry detergent - but you see, those things remind me of work and at Christmas, for just one short time during the year, I kind of just feel like not working.  Are you with me?  Can I get a 'woot, woot' for that?  I remember once when my dad got my mom a microwave for Christmas.  She hated microwaves.  And of course, the time when my husband bought his poor mom a new power drill.  Guess who ended up using it?

Now, 'wishes' and 'wants' on the other hand are definitely top of mind.  The best gifts?  The ones that make your sister, wife, husband our bestie feel super special.  These ultra-stylish presents will do exactly that, and although they all technically serve a 'purpose', their raison d'être is really just to make your favourites look and feel fabulous.  Love!  Check back soon for more great gift ideas, including ideas for the athlete, the classic beauty, the kid (and kid-at-heart) and even your dog.  Oh he's going to get so spoiled this year...
