Keeping on my all natural tip, it’s now time to turn to my first post on hair products and I’m giving the gold star to Rahua. Now, I’ll keep it real with you: this ain’t cheap (I’m working on finding others at a better price point) but when you look at the ingredients you'll understand why. Full Article

I’m turning 50 this year and have decided to celebrate by walking 50 miles in one day with a friend of mine who’s also just turned 50. After much debating about location, we’ve settled on the streets/parks of NYC for a variety of reasons (easy access to facilities/resources of all kinds, no need to schedule pick-ups or drop-offs, friends can easily meet up with us for legs of the journey, we both moved here 25 years ago, we love it, etc). Full Article

I’m telling you. I’ve been on the pleats. They’re everywhere. I wish I could see more of these purple pleats. But I’m also pretty obsessed with this coat. The shoes though… Clog heels. Cloggy heels. How come, um, I don’t entirely despise them? I’m not saying I love them. Full Article

Hi Duana! As a long-time lurker, I never expected to be writing in. We have twins, a boy and a girl, and have spent the years since they were born swearing that we were DONE. (With much snark and vigor, I'm afraid.) And now - we are, somehow, considering reversing our stance and trying for another. Full Article

This looked purple to me when I first saw it, and then in other light it’s blue. I’m saying purple and you can yell at me later. But whatever it is, I’m not sure either way if I like it with this pink coat. Do you?  Full Article

Look closely. It’s not just suede. It’s weaved suede. I love it so much. And the pockets too. Just… maybe those strings crossing below the neck are kinda overkill? Also I’m not down with the shoe choice.  Full Article

It’s puke green. Which is not necessarily a problem if it’s done well but it becomes even more glaringly puke green when…well… This was probably the worst dress of the night for me. Worst is always in relation to the subject’s potential to be best. And Julianne Moore is always coming to an award show with a lot of promise. Full Article

I’ll always love a shirt dress. Shirt dresses are typically not tight to the body. And this one, by Zac Posen, is all about the body. I just wish the nude underlay wasn’t there. And I wish she’d done something different with her hair. But I suspect those tendrils give her some security. Full Article

If you’ve been reading this blog consistently, you know I’ve been on this for a while: the January Jones style slide. January Jones used to bring it. She used to be AHEAD of it. Even if it what she wore wasn’t my favourite, at least it had imagination. At least it provoked. At least it wasn’t… seafoam. Full Article

Pink is tricky. Because it can go either infantile or… well… Saoirse’s pink lace, with that horrible hair, and the earrings, it’s like she’s from the 1950s and her parents are looking to marry her off. This is especially disappointing because we’ve seen before that Saoirse has an edge to her fashion instincts. Full Article

Instant hate. Everything about this dress offends me. Brie Larson is going to win an Oscar. And she’s wearing a dress that’s meant for a Euro billionaire’s yacht girl in Cannes. Then there’s that colour. Maybe the worst colour in fashion. I mean you have to basically be an icon to be able to manage this colour. Full Article
