Style Thursdays: In the News

Happy Thursday fashionistas! I've got a few quick updates from this week's fashion news:

Style Thursdays: Fashion in the News

It's a gorgeous spring morning here at slice.ca headquarters and I thought it might be a good opportunity to share some links in today's post.

Style Thursdays: Spring Fashion Helpers

We’re finally getting into warmer weather, and with it comes our new sexy spring wardrobe, open-toed shoes and multiple social events to keep us busy.

Style Thursdays: Fashion in the News

Good morning fashionistas! We’ve got tons of fashion news for you today, so lets get started.

Style Thursdays: Guys With Style

You know those guys you either work or hang out with that just go that extra mile when it comes to fashion? They wear pocket squares in the season’s hottest colours, daring cufflinks with bold splashes of colour and even royal blue velvet jackets during daylight hours.

Style Thursdays: The Elle Canada Show Starts Tomorrow!

It’s official! The first annual Elle Show starts tomorrow and gives patrons the opportunity to brush elbows with the city’s finest fashionistas and meet big wigs in the industry.

Style Thursdays: Looking Fab!

For the past two spring seasons on Toronto’s Bloor Street, a temporary beauty studio has popped up to dish beauty advice to the public.

Buy Design's Charity Gala Goes Disco!

Here’s your chance to catch disco fever, hang out with the city’s hottest fashionistas and shake your booty for a good cause!

Style Thursdays: To Your Best Health!

Being healthy is always in style and now there’s a new Canadian women’s magazine that puts health front and centre.

Style Thursdays: Cake Beauty Promo and Giveaway!

We’ve got a jam-packed Style Thursday blog for you today, thanks to Cake Beauty!

David Dixon & Andy Thê-Anh Impress at FW

Wednesday night’s highly anticipated Fashion Week headliners didn’t disappoint as Canadian designers Andy Thé-Anh & David Dixon took centre stage on the runway. Here’s a quick recap of what we saw:

Joe's Fresh at Fall Fashion Week

Leave it to FDCC Chair and Canadian superstar designer Joseph Mimran to pack the tent at Toronto's Fashionweek to maximum capacity, plus a few, on opening night.

An Interview with PRC's Lucian Matis

Listen up fashionistas. Toronto’s fall fashion week starts on Monday under the big tent at Nathan Phillips Square and the slice.ca crew will be blogging daily all next week throughout the shows!

Project Runway Canada Giveaway

What’s Evan Biddell, the first winner of the inaugural season of Project Runway Canada, been up to since he last left the runway? Here's your chance to see the premiere collection from this homegrown talent and Biddell in person at L’Oréal’s Fashion Week in Toronto. Email webmaster@slice.ca for your chance to win a pair of tickets to his runway show!

Style Thursdays: Oscar Recap and Gearing up for Fashion Week

We’ve got some great updates coming your way on Style Thursdays in the next couple of weeks, but first I wanted to debrief the Oscars from this past weekend.

Style Thursdays: Valentine’s Balmshell Giveaway!

Happy Valentine’s to YOU for all the love you give us throughout the year - big hugs and smooches from the slice.ca crew. I’ve got a few last-minute stylish gift ideas for you, you and your partner or hints for him (it’s OK to buy gifts fashionably late, as long as it’s delivered on time).

Introducing Style Thursdays

You want fashion? We’ve got fashion. Hot off the heels of last year’s inaugural Project Runway Canada on Slice, we sense your thirst for fashion and present a new blog series each week.

A Fan of Vancouver

There’s nothing like a winter vacation in your own country to make you realize what a gorgeous landscape this nation has to offer.

Prepping for the New Year

A little perspective - today is Thursday. That means I’ve been eating sugar cookies, turkey and Turtles for days. I have blisters from Boxing Day shopping (plus the existing blisters I got from last-minute holiday gift shopping), not to mention a complete lack of energy from dashing around town picking up food and beverages for entertaining. But wait, there’s more!

'Tis the Cold and Flu Season

There’s one thing you can expect to get during the hustle and bustle of the holiday season – sick!

Glossy Holiday Ideas

If you’re like me, you buy two of every gift so you have one for yourself.

Sick of Urban Construction

From the second I wake up to the moment I go to bed, I’m reminded that I live in one big construction zone.

How Fast Can You Type?

I found myself at my desk this week, typing away like a little woodpecker would at its tree, hearing the hunt-and-peck noises echoing in the office and it dawned on me, "How fast can I type?"

Bustle's Off to the Races

Last night’s Bustle Clothing show at TFW packed its signature fashion-forward sportswear fashions with cheeky finishing touches.

Going Grey

Let’s preface this by saying I apologize for the image. I did my best to search for grey-haired young women, women with white hair and young women with streaks.

Paris Hilton, Get Over Yourself!

David Letterman – you’re hawt! I’m sure you’ve seen the infamous clip of Paris Hilton’s appearance on David Letterman’s show last week (if not you’ll want to look here first).

Exercise For Dummies

That’s it! I’ve waging war on my jeans. Not because I don’t love them (I bought two of the same pair when they went on sale), but because they’re starting to feel a wee bit tight from all the summer patio pub fare.

An Eco-Coffee Cosy

Here's a great idea for you coffee junkies out there who are conscious of the waste your java produces each day.

The Love Shack

The song "Love Shack" by the B-52's has been an ongoing theme song for my hubby and I. It played the night we met at a downtown night club and it might just be the only type of structure we can realistically afford if we decide to flip our loft in the coming weeks.

INWAU and Other Text Msg Abbreviations

Where do I get my hip text msg lingo from these days? My mother of course.

The Princess Pooch

I'm seriously thinking about getting a dog with my husband. I didn't have one growing up (most of my goldfish didn't survive the trek from the pet store and the survivors didn't last more than a month), but I'm convinced I could be a great pet owner.

Saving Spree

I’m going on a diet. It’s time to trim the fat, cut the excess and live more moderately in terms of my financial spending. I’m tired of being broke a week before payday, ordering in on my credit card to compensate for my budget mishaps and impulse buys that give me buyer’s remorse as soon as my goods are wrapped up. It’s time I start saving for the future.

Manjugate the Verb

This week, friends and I were discussing the increased use of man words; feminine words with the letter “m” added to the front to make it masculine.

Wearable Scrabble!

We're all about re-using nowadays, right? What better way to extend the lifetime of boring old Scrabble tiles than convert them into cute necklaces?

Camp Good Times

Let me be honest for a moment. I love going to the cottage, but I’m not super crazy about camping. My husband and I were invited to go camping with friends this weekend (tents, bugs, bears and all) and we decided to accept the challenge and venture into the woods.

Rant: Escape From New York

Who would have thought that my recent trip to NY with my husband could have ended up being such a disaster? In a nutshell, here’s what went wrong.

In a New York Minute

It’s amazing how quickly time flies when you’re in New York. This past week I was fortunate enough to tag along on my husband’s business trip to the bright metropolis - it’s true what they say, this city never goes to sleep.

Rant: Blister in the Sun

I’ve had it with summer shoes and it’s barely even summer! My feet have already paid the painful price of breaking in two new pairs of sandals, one pair of flats and getting acquainted with last year’s sandals.

Vanity Fair Looks to Africa This Month

One of my favourite magazines on the planet is going global with its latest issue.

Manicure Madness

I admit that I’m addicted to French manicures. Can I afford weekly touch-ups? Probably not. Do I skimp on buying laundry detergent to do just that? Absolutely.

Eco-Friendly Grocery Cart

The days of wheeling around bulky, flimsy and hard-to-manoeuvre grocery trolleys are gone!

Easy Runner

Running is an activity that I usually reserve for important moments in life; like sprinting for Boxing Day sales or chasing after a streetcar when I’m late for work. So when I was recently invited to a kick-off event for Reebok’s new “Run Easy” campaign that included a brisk morning jog, I was hesitant to say the least.
