Get Pampered This Holiday Season

Before the hustle and bustle of the holidays take hold, make caring for yourself a top priority. Check out our practical advice on how to feel and look pampered and relaxed, even in the midst of seasonal madness.

How to Regift

We know you’ve done it before, at least once, because most of us have done it too—and you’ll likely do it again. You’ve kept it secret because of the guilt you’re feeling and because you know you can get away with it and no one will be the wiser.

Holiday Beauty

Striking a sophisticated balance between plain Jane and sugar plum hussy can be difficult during the holiday season.

Make Cool Holiday Cocktails

A great cocktail is much more than just a drink. It sets the mood, adds a hint of fun and brings people together. The following five cocktails will suit any occasion this holiday season.

Stick to New Year's Resolutions

Why do we do it? Why do we work out with our new gym membership for two weeks and then stop going? Why do we put down those cigarettes on Monday, only to find ourselves smoking by Saturday?

Dress from Day to Night During the Festive Season

‘Tis the season to cram as many cocktail parties as you can into one month. You’ve got your office party, family parties, friend parties, acquaintance parties and, hell, if you’re feeling really festive, you might pop into a few ‘dos thrown by strangers because, really, who can turn down eggnog?

Have a Designer Holiday

Every year as the December holidays approach, desperate and often frantic shoppers fly in and out of stores, searching for those perfect gifts for everyone on their list.

How To Get Outfitted For Running Gear

As someone who is new to the sport of running, I found it can be a time-consuming daunting task trying to decipher between running belts (or fuel belts), what running shoe I should buy, clothing, running bras, etc.

The hottest fashion trend: Eyeglasses

Hey Four-Eyes! All those years of high school mockery might actually be paying off. These days, eyeglass-wearers are the coolest kids in class. Those cumbersome specs many of us used to do anything to hide have become the ultimate accessory — and the bigger, the better.

How to Wear Guy-liner

From guy-liner to man-scara: More guys are wearing makeup―and not just rock stars.

How To Not Be An Annoying Guy

Who wants to be "that guy?" You know the one: That guy everybody avoids because he's so annoying.

How To Kick-Start a Flagging Sex Life

Is "I'm too tired" the new "I've got a headache?" Today's average couple is always on the go and busy, and it could be getting in the way of good sex.

How To Understand Relationships Between Women

What would life be like without the girlfriends who have been there all along? Family is one thing, but friends are very important in their own special way.

How To Plan Ahead for a Haircut

Itching to update your locks? Plan ahead before you get anything lopped off.

How To Decipher Your Teen's Behaviour

Why do humans in this pimply, lovesick stage of development insist on doing the very things we explicitly forbid them to do? The obvious answer: Because they're biologically programmed to do so.

How To Get Control in Your Wardrobe

For figure-fixing innovation, we give thanks to Spanx, the first of the new generation of girls'-best-friend undergarments, a brand-name that is now used as freely as Kleenex or Band-Aid to describe underclothes that shape, support and smooth the figure. Finally, wise retailers are putting similar materials right into their clothing.

Laid Off and Laid Back

A good friend of mine once said, when life gives you lemons, add vodka. I wholeheartedly agree, which is why I’m kind of thankful for my recent influx of free time. I’m determined to make my layoff a positive step in my career and, ultimately, my life. Coming off a ten-year career, this is the first time since high school that I’ve been unemployed.

How to Meditate

Multitasking shreds my brain into thousands of splinters. By 5 pm (or 6, or 7, or whenever I actually stop working), my mind is an endless cycle of unrelated things: tomorrow’s to-do list, tonight’s dinner, an outfit for an important meeting next week, the best gift for a friend’s birthday, whether The L Word’s Shane and Jenny are a good couple, and that embarrassing thing that happened in high school 10 years ago.

How To Change Up Your Style

On Style Her Famous, fashion-challenged women get the celebrity makeover of a lifetime. Participant Lucia Wamala shares what she learned from her Jada Pinkett Smith-inspired treatment.

How to Determine Your Wedding Budget

Expenses are part and parcel of a wedding: you can’t have one without the other. What you can do, however, is budget yourself accordingly so that the end result won’t come as a complete surprise or totally overwhelm you.

How to Avoid Hidden Wedding Costs

Some couples get so caught up in their wedding planning that they forget to look at the big picture, or rather the small print. Your vendors might have come highly recommended, and you might be impressed by what they can offer, but—and this is a big but—there might be a good reason why the small print at the end of your contract is so small.

How to Have a Multicultural Wedding

For some couples, paying homage to their cultural backgrounds is of utmost importance. Here’s a list of various cultural traditions from around the world.

Have a Spa Day at Home

All right everyone, Spring is here and it’s time to freshen up. Shedding those extra layers of winter clothing is a real relief—until you notice the state your poor bod is in after a season of heavy layers and grooming neglect. Well, it’s almost skirt and sandal season, so most of us are thinking about getting pretty again. Here are some easy tips for a home spa day.

How to Choose for Your Wedding Registry

Make a list of the items you and your fiancé(e) have. Which of these items will you be keeping and bringing into your new home and which will be sent to recycling or to your local charity?

How to Choose Your Officiant

Selecting your officiant is like choosing a fine wine: it takes time and a lot of consideration. Remember this is the person who will be overseeing your nuptials. It’s important to pick someone who’ll take your needs into consideration.

How to Manage a Wedding Budget

Setting a budget is paramount to ensuring a stress-free beginning to your wedded bliss. This budget checklist has been designed to help you determine some of the expenses that can come into play, which can add thousands of dollars to your wedding.

How to Transform Your Wardrobe

Confucius said, “They must change, who would be constant in happiness or wisdom.” I always liked that Confucius. So clever. And he’s right – if you’re in a wardrobe rut, it can lead to the humdrums like you wouldn’t believe. If your clothes supply is in need of revitalization and you’re not exactly a Rockefeller, you’re going to need some help – and sooner will serve you better than later.

How to Feel Great After a Split

My first job was as a receptionist at a big broadcaster. One of the most impressive women at the company was the head of the legal department. She was in her 40s, fitter than I was, and extremely confident.

Part 2: At 34, I feel like I might be growing up a little. Loyal to sneakers, blue jeans, and T-shirts all my life, it might be time to transition to more “manly” characteristics. I’m thinking more expensive sneakers, blue jeans, and T-shirts, switching from a Velcro to a leather wallet, and the BIG one: choosing a cologne.

How To Quit Your Job The Right Way

Leaving a job doesn’t always happen when you’re disgruntled or upset. You might be in a job you love and working for people you admire. Whatever the reason for your departure, a smart employee has her future always on her mind.

How to Get a Raise

Ask for more money and get it. Here’s what to do to ensure you get what you deserve.

How to Pretend You’re Famous

There are several perks to being famous: you get to date hotties, you get loads of free stuff even though you’re already stinking rich, and people generally care about the things that you do, even if they’re not interesting at all.

How to Be a Bad Dinner Guest

If you’re famous for showing up tardy and empty-handed to dinner parties, you’re well on your way to becoming a bad guest. Here are some foolproof ways to maintain mediocrity when it comes to attending formal dinners thrown by your family and friends, with additional notes from The Jane Austen Handbook by Margaret C. Sullivan, Manners by Kate Spade, and HGTV.ca.

Make The Most Of Your Lunch Hour

Do you have a bad habit of chaining yourself to your desk first thing in the morning, only getting up to pee and pour more coffee until quitting time rolls around? Girl, there's a reason they give you an hour off in the middle of the day and it's not just so you can spend an extra 60 minutes on that spreadsheet.

Get The Salary You Deserve

Is there anything scarier than being asked point blank in an interview, "What sort of salary are you looking for?" If you aim too low, you're under-selling yourself and if you aim too high, you could price yourself right out of the job. Here are some ideas on how to figure out what you need, what you’re worth, and what’s more important than money.

Fast Money

It’s all about the Benjamins sometimes. Alright, alright, we don’t have Benjamins here in Canada, but “It’s all about the Sir Robert Borden’s” (whose portrait graces our $100 bills) just doesn’t have the same ring to it. And whether you’re saving for the latest it bag, a European vacation, or heck, you just need some dough to pay the bills, here are some easy ways to make some spare dough.

Respect Your Breasts

I am a big advocate of professional bra fitting. According to Oprah, 85 per cent of women are wearing the wrong size. But, I will admit, dear readers, that I measured myself and decided I was a 34B. As a style expert, I know a thing or two about how garments, both of the outer and under varieties, should fit.

Plan Your Wedding: The Guest List

If there’s one point in the planning process that drives couples to thoughts of eloping, it’s the guest list. What starts as an intimate gathering of your close friends and family turns into a sprawling kegger, with guests seated at picnic tables

Sex Through Your Ages

A lot of people liken sex to riding a bike; that being, you never forget how. But sometimes it’s not an issue of forgetting, it’s that our bodies, needs, wants, and preferences change over the years.

Plan a Wedding: Book a Photographer

So you’ve got your venue all picked out, and you’ve decided to book a photographer for your wedding. Wise choice. Wedding photographers serve several important functions at a wedding, including:

Talk Sex

There is no universal way to talk to somebody about sex; there is the ideal and there is the reality. Ideally, you should feel empowered and confident enough to communicate with your partner about sex, including discussions about exclusivity, technique, sexually transmitted infections (STIs), and birth control.

Talk Dirty

Okay, so you’re dying to add some sass and raunch to your nightly romps, but how will your partner feel if you suddenly appear in leather and sound like a porn star?

Feel More Comfortable Masturbating

Have you ever heard this little saying? If you’re like me, you probably chuckled a little bit. But I feel obligated to set the record straight: procrastination is nothing like masturbation. Procrastination is a bad habit. Masturbation is something we should be doing more of.

Find a Great Hairdresser

A great hairdresser is hard to come by and so is a great cut. We all have a bad haircut story where we were reduced to tears, frantically calling our best friend in search of another trusted hair dresser who could find the beauty in the beast.

How To Eat Like A Celeb

Jennifer Aniston follows The Zone, Beyoncé knocked off 20 lbs on The Master Cleanse and Jessica Biel fills up on mini meals with The 3-Hour diet. And let’s face it; they look pretty good. Shocking, since you’ve probably heard that fad diets don’t work. Nutrition guru and personal trainer, Marshall Tully, debunks that myth…well, kind of.

Sexy Comes From Within

Despite the impression that the fashion glossies give, the key to confidence actually has very little to do with a fabulous wardrobe, expensive makeup and a stick-insect body. “Being proud of yourself and the curves that you possess is the key to confidence,” says Carmen Puyo, one of the creators of Burst!, a workshop that empowers women through movement.

Book an All-Inclusive Vacation

There are vacations and then there are all-inclusive vacations. Both are enjoyable, but one often features pricey food, pricey drinks and sketchy hostels, while the other involves free food, free booze and decent accommodations.

How To Get Drunk With…

Getting sloshed is a big part of our society. It’s a rite of passage when you’re a teenager, and to be part of any old boy’s club, you’ve gotta down at least a little bit of scotch. I’m forever being invited out for drinks by friends, coworkers and family. And I wouldn’t want it any other way – it’s a great way to sit down and bond with people.

How To Buy Electronics

Girls, take note. Just because you’ve got the XX chromosomes happening doesn’t mean that you can’t be your own electronics expert. If you’re considering buying a big-ticket item and you think you need to rely on a guy to get you through, think again.

Live Like a Model

Just sit back and bask in the glamour of it all No offense, but you’re probably not model material—otherwise you’d be a model, wouldn’t you? If you’ve ever watched an episode of Top Model, 8th and Ocean, or even Project Runway, you know it’s not all pampering and primping and looking fierce.

Beat the Winter Blahs

Cold. Grey. Dry. Those words don't just describe winter weather, but how you sometimes feel when spring is still months away. It's easy in Canada to let the long winter get you down.

Text with Class

It started with emails. It quickly snowballed into cell phones, Facebook, and instant messaging. Our parents, who probably think it’s hard enough to have a relationship without the strain of technology interfering, never had to deal with a break-up notification on a networking site. I mean, the worst that could happen to them is that someone broke up with them over the phone.

How To Buy Formal Wear

Every once in a while, we need to pull out all the stops and attend an event, whether it’s a wedding, fundraiser, or something work-related. While there are all kinds (black tie, formal, semi-formal, cocktail, etc), the only rule you really don’t want to break is showing up underdressed.

How to Date a Rock Star

Sure Gavin and Gwen make a cute couple and they seem happy (despite Gavin’s surprise love-child and the cheating rumours, of course) but Gwen is a musician herself. What’s a fabulously normal girl to do when she finds herself falling for a rock star (or rock star wannabe)?

Vintage and Discount Shopping

It’s always been cool to wear vintage. Back in the eighties, all the hip kids shopped for their jeans at Courage My Love in Toronto’s Kensington Market. Now, fashion divas are even wearing vintage to red-carpet events.

Vacation Style

Lounging poolside with a frosty pina colada in the Caribbean is not equivalent to lying on the dock at the cottage with a bottle of beer, so why dress like it is?

Net to the Work, Baby

We all know very well that when looking for a job, it definitely helps to have a glowing skill set. But we’d be foolish not to acknowledge that a big part of finding employment is about who you know.

Be A Better Friend

Reading women’s mags and websites, there’s always a lot of talk about what we can do to be better girlfriends, attract men, or please men. But what about our lady friends? The chick who held your hand when you sobbed to her about the latest drama, the girl who puts up with your dad’s bad jokes, or the guy that listens to you talk about how all boys are idiots.

Get Over The Ex!

Breaking up is hard to do but getting over a breakup is even harder. We've all been there: the hysterical crying, the sleepless nights, the weeks of living make-up free, sporting nothing but torn and tattered sweats, belting our hearts out to a slew of sad love songs. Sadly, there is no easy way to mend a broken heart.

Flirt like a Pro

Before dating comes flirting. While some people are natural-born flirts, others wouldn’t know how to flirt with the last person on earth. If you’re the latter, fear not!

Keep a Food Diary

A food diary can be as simple as a week’s entries in a notebook, detailing exactly what you ate and drank—not what you thought you did. Or you can draw up a weekly chart and run off copies, so you can enter exactly what you ate and drank each hour of the day and how you were feeling when you did.

Fight Binge and Emotional Eating

Anyone who’s tried losing weight through dieting has probably been sideswiped at some point or another by one of the sabotage twins: emotional eating and binge eating. Use these tips from the X-Weighted fitness team to fight back.
