Like most women who grew up in the 1990s I have some feelings about corduroy. (What, you don’t?) As a former fashion staple of the back-to-school season, my point of view on corduroy ultimately came down to being a super keener. I was a fan, especially around Grade 6 when I wore a corduroy blazer

Personally, I love experimenting with hair color—it’s a low-commitment way to transition your everyday look from soft and subtle to hello, statement. For example, in one summer alone I tried platinum blonde, rose, and surprise, lavender hair, which I actually loved the most. Then, suddenly it felt like BOOM! Every. Single. Celeb was dabbling in

(Photo: Everlane) RED. ALERT. Everyone and their mom’s favourite ethical brand is coming back to Canada, just in time for the chilly weather. Yup, it’s Everlane, and it’s returning to Nordstrom’s pop-in section starting October 4 at Toronto’s Eaton Centre and Vancouver’s Pacific Centre. Can I just say that I’m losing it? Their stuff is

Chunky Pull-Thru Braid A simple ponytail doesn’t have to be your default style for super long hair. For this braid, you’ll need hella clear elastics, a large clip (to keep excess stands out the way) and roughly five wefts of clip-in extensions. Start by dividing your hair into four sections to assist in strategically placing

There’s morning, then there’s morning during New York Fashion Week. Model Delilah Belle Hamlin — daughter of Lisa Rinna and Harry Hamlin — knows the frenzy all too well. For our latest episode of #WakingUpWith, we skipped snooze and talked backseat outfit changes between shows, the perks of having a glam team during fashion’s busiest

Welcome to another episode of Beauty Haul, where we challenged influencer (and queen of dewy, poreless-looking skin) Dylana Suarez to shop her fave Victoria’s Secret beauty products). If you haven’t already hit ‘Follow’ on Dylana Suarez’s Instagram account, then you’re missing out. Not only does she continually inspire our fashion choices, but her beauty regimen

(Photo: iStock) I was once the person who’d brightly quip, “Zara!” whenever someone asked me what I was wearing. And why wouldn’t I? For the most part, Zara was cheap and cheerful retail therapy that supplied my wardrobe with a hit of runway-inspired trends every season. But lately, it feels like more of a guilty

Like most women in their 20s, I had a brief (but passionate) love affair with lash extensions. Vague interest quickly escalated into borderline addiction when, at one point, I was getting an $80 lash refill once a week. I cringe now, but at the time I was blissfully unaware of the damage being done. By

Celine There’s a reason black kohl eyeliner and loose, wavy hair keep happening on catwalks, and that reason is, they’re awesome. Hedi Slimane agrees—as he should, since he helped invent the melted boho look of the early aughts at Dior Homme, pushed it further at Saint Laurent, and now…well, see for yourself. These girls are

Rebecca Minkoff The vibe: Modern-day working woman Get the look: Gina Edwards used Kiss GelFantasy Nails in Bookworm, Kiss Masterpiece Nails in Kitty Gurl and the Kiss Halloween Gel Fantasy Nails to create a series of looks inspired by Rebecca Minkoff’s fall/winter 2019 collection.

Stitch, Stitch Fine, maybe this hairstyle wouldn’t be your first choice in going to meet your in-laws for the first time, but perhaps you can take some inspiration from the creative genius nevertheless. To echo Yohji Yamamoto’s primitive inspirations in the collection, hairstylist Eugene Souleiman wove blanket stitches throughout models’ hair, evoking a time before

They say the eyes are the window to the soul, and they’re also a telltale sign of your living habits, primarily because the skin around your eyes is some of the thinnest and most delicate on the body. Having a hard time sleeping each night? Dark circles and bags will begin to form under your

(Photo: Courtesy CBC) Most entrepreneurs would kill for a shot to be on Dragon’s Den, and even more would kill for a partnership from one of the show’s high-powered investors. But on this week’s season premiere, St. Catherines, Ont.’s Jennifer Harper turned down her offer. Harper, who started Cheekbone Beauty almost three years ago, asked

(Photo: iStock) In the last decade, the skincare industry has gotten really…complicated. Remember the days of the iconic three-step (three!) cleansing, toning and moisturizing system? Maybe an Oxy pad haphazardly swiped across a forehead here and there, during particularly trying periods. It was a simpler time. These days, thanks in large part to social media

Dia DipasupilGetty Images Some startling news: Nobody cares about Brazilian wax or lash tints anymore.

The days of a full-on #InstaBeat might be over, but the quest for a natural-looking, flawless complexion surely are not. And thankfully, heavy, full-coverage foundations aren’t your only option for faking it when your skin won’t behave. Color correction (aka CC) cream is a skincare-makeup hybrid that tackles issues like aging, discoloration, and more head

With the announcement of another royal tour (the couple’s first with Master Archie!) comes the inevitable excitement around Meghan Markle’s royal tour style.

Sighted: Clutch bags were rampant on the runways at NYFW and dangling on the wrists of many a trendsetter on the street. I’m not sure about you, but when I see a bitty bag tightly clamped under someone’s arm, my eyes go right to it. Sure, your first thought may be, “This is not 2003—y
