Look of the Day: Kirsten Dunst




Kirsten Dunst at Pavillon Cambon for the Chanel show during Paris Haute Couture Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2011.
Ms. Dunst looked positively ladylike in a pleated navy Chanel dress paired with black satin pointy toe Chanel pumps.



'White' This Way!


After battling my third bout of the dreaded flu this season, I am just about done with the winter weather and definitely finished with the snow. Looking out my window and seeing miles of white is just not doing it for me anymore but I guess I should get used to it. The buzz in fashion is that white is a huge colour this spring. A glance at what has floated down the runways of a few of my favourites, Victoria Beckham, Calvin Klein and Alexis Mabille is definitely whispering in our ears, white is the new black!

Look of the Day: Michelle Williams



There is just something about Michelle Williams that always makes me take a second look. Whether she is in casual garb strolling the streets of Brooklyn with her adorable daughter or walking the red carpet, her look always seems fresh and polished!

Ms. Williams looked divine in a frosty white Balenciaga evening gown with delicate embellishing at the scalloped asymmetrical hem and neckline. She finished her look with dainty Fred Leighton jewellery and lovely champagne hued Salvatore Ferragamo pumps.

Look of the Day: Demi Moore



I have always been a big fan of Demi Moore's style. Yes, the years has been good to her, she looks fabulous for any age let alone 48 but Ms. Moore is one celebrity that seems to have grown into her polished sense of style. She works the line between ageless and age appropriate in a way that seems to elude most of her contemporaries. 

Ms. Moore sported a dove grey sheath dress in a muted watercolor print at the Save the Children and Artists for Peace and Justice Benefit hosted by Bulgari. She finished her look with tres trendy pointy toe nude Casadei wedges and a champagne hued satin Bulgari Monete envelope clutch.

Around the Charming Home: Light My Fire!


Winter was never my favourite season. I am definitely a lady that needs fresh air, sunshine and warm breezes to get me going. But living in Canada means quite a few months of snow and frigid temperatures that one must deal with.
I can't think of a better way to deal with the -20 degrees Celsius which is presently blowing outside my front door (that's -4 Fahrenheit for our American friends!) than with a blazing fireplace to warm the home!















What's your favourite way to keep yourself warm on a cold winter's night?

Style Icon: Carolyn Bessette Kennedy


I was asked once what I considered the definition of a 'style icon'. My answer was simple-an individual whose style stands the test of time regardless of decade and trends. Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy was definitely one of those individuals.


Carolyn Jeanne Bessette-Kennedy
(January 7, 1966-July 16, 1999)




Much like the mother-in-law she had never met, Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy was a true style icon. Looking fab in an evening dress or sweats and sneakers seemed to come naturally to the flaxen haired beauty. Her style simply put, was pared down chic done just right. Nothing over-the-top or overly racy, minimal jewellery or make-up save her signature red lipstick, and always a touch of her own personal flair and sex appeal. Classic American style at it's finest!




It has been said that she was a beauty inside and out. Publicly, she displayed polish and poise, preferring to guard her privacy with reserve and well-mannered aloofness towards the press. Privately, she was rumoured to be fun, easy going with a genuine heart and one of the most attentive people you could have a conversation with, once again much like the other famous Mrs. Kennedy before her.
