Lifestyle Paris Fashion Week: Roland Mouret SS2013 I need to see what the diagonal strapless looks like on a non-model with breasts. But look at that cut out collar with exposed shoulders. Mrs Beckham is taking notes! By Lainey • Sep 28, 2012 01:16 pm
Lifestyle Paris Fashion Week: Christian Dior SS2013 I love the A-line strapless dresses that have folds in the middle like origami. Can’t wait to find a knock-off. And I’ve always been into the idea, ever since Sharon Stone did it with a Gap tee at the Oscars, of a plain fitted black cotton collarless shirt By Lainey • Sep 28, 2012 12:02 pm
Lifestyle Smutty Fitness: Fitness from Summer to Fall Fall is here bringing with it shorter days and darker mornings, less daylight to exercise outdoors and cooler temperatures to exercise in. In the summer we have to plan our workouts to make sure that we miss the heat (or at least survive in it) but come fall and winter By Hayley • Sep 28, 2012 09:35 am
Lifestyle Paris Fashion Week: Lanvin SS2013 LOVE some of these modified tuxedo pieces. How about that jacket with one white lapel? And that neutral dress with what looks like a black bathing suit covering the left breast? OMG. It won’t be long before we’ll be seeing a lot of this in Hollywood. By Lainey • Sep 28, 2012 09:27 am
Lifestyle Paris Fashion Week: Nina Ricci SS2013 There’s a long pale pink dress with fringe all over it in this collection that is borderline Marchesa and I’d love to see it tested on Charlize Theron because if she can’t make it work... Other than that, almost all of it is far superior to the By Lainey • Sep 27, 2012 04:18 pm
Lifestyle Paris Fashion Week: Barbara Bui SS2013 I bought a pair of black suede Bui two buckle booties a few weeks ago that I stomped in all over TIFF and I’ll say it again, and as many times as I have to – why isn’t the Bui label more popular? By Lainey • Sep 27, 2012 04:01 pm
Lifestyle Sasha’s FALL 2012 TREND REPORT #2: LEATHER PANTS As an alternative to your same old, same old jeans I encourage you to invest in a pair of good leather leggings/pants. If you can spend a little more, do because I promise you, you’ll be able to bust those suckers out for years to come. For all By Sasha • Sep 27, 2012 02:49 pm
Lifestyle Sasha’s FALL 2012 TREND REPORT #1: THE SWEATSHIRT As a half Asian person seeking comfort in my clothes is in my genetics. (Lainey: we live in pyjamas.) There’s an innate yearning for everything I wear to be ultra-soft and ultra-cozy. Let me put it this way - instead of from day to night clothing, I look for By Sasha • Sep 27, 2012 01:49 pm
Lifestyle Paris Fashion Week: Balmain SS2013 Tina Knowles is frantically scribbling notes on how to mutilate this collection for House Of Dereon. I do love that Balmain is sometimes so unapologetically...80s. But the cropping! There’s been a lot of cropping. By Lainey • Sep 27, 2012 12:29 pm
Lifestyle Paris Fashion Week: Mugler SS2013 Really like the modification of the short/skort situation here with all the various flaps though I’m curious as to what that might look like on a normal-sized person. Can never get enough of a structured shoulder. By Lainey • Sep 27, 2012 11:39 am
Lifestyle Paris Fashion Week: Carven SS2013 Carven is hard to find in Canada. I love this and hate it at the same time. Not sure how I feel about the running theme of cut-outs in this collection but Jesus, the shoes, the shoes are so good. By Lainey • Sep 27, 2012 11:08 am
Lifestyle Paris Fashion Week: Rochas SS2013 Some of these crop tops are scaring me. What do you think about the positioning of those headscarves like Axl Rose styles but less formed to the head? I like it ok but I’m not sure about the practicality. By Lainey • Sep 27, 2012 09:54 am
Lifestyle Sasha’s INTO IT: Bootights WHAT: BOOTIGHTS WHERE: IN CANADA AT www.shoeme.ca AND EVERYWHERE ELSE AT www.bootights.com. WHY: I don’t think I need to explain the brilliance to you, right? I mean, the name says it all; it’s a tight for your boot. But guess the sh-t what?! Instead By Sasha • Sep 26, 2012 12:05 pm
Lifestyle Sasha Answers: I keep cheating on my boyfriend Dear Sasha, I'm a horrible person, at least when it comes to relationships. I have been dating my boyfriend for a bit over four years now. About three years into the relationship, I got drunk, made out with a guy, broke up with my boyfriend and had sex By Sasha • Sep 25, 2012 02:06 pm
Lifestyle Sasha Answers: Are my friends leaving me out? I married a wonderful man almost a year ago, and moved from my downtown condo out to the burbs, bought a car, and became a commuter/grown-up/wife. As such, I've found myself growing further and further away from some of my girlfriends - especially the ones the By Sasha • Sep 25, 2012 02:01 pm
Lifestyle Sasha Answers: Lending my sister money Hi Sasha, My older sister and brother-in-law have two young kids. We all get along well. My sister and brother-in-law have combined solid, average, middle-class annual incomes - he works full-time, she works part-time. They live in a small condo in a very well-to-do neighbourhood. They had some financial difficulties By Sasha • Sep 25, 2012 01:58 pm
