Vancouver Fashion Jobs – Summer Sundresses
May 23rd, 2013
When it starts to get really hot out in the summer, we are often left with fewer stylish choices in our closets. Summer sundresses are the solution to that problem, and come in any imaginable colour, length and shape. The hallmark qualities of a good sundress though, are breathable fabric, comfort and an easy summer aesthetic quality.
Prints are an easy way to make a statement with a basic item like a sundress. Zara has always provided consumers with easy to wear prints that also have a c Read More...
Calgary Fashion Jobs – Summer Lace
May 22nd, 2013
Lace traditionally embodies an overtly feminine aesthetic, but recently the fabric has become much more wearable, casual, and even edgy. For summer, it has showed up on everything from maxi-dresses, to crop tops and shorts, amplified by modern accents like scalloped edges or laser cutouts. No longer reserved for girlish glamour, the trend now takes on a more subversive vibe. Take a cue from Kate Bosworth, who rocked a head-to-toe white lace look at this season’s Coachella Read More...
Toronto Fashion Jobs – Owning a Timeless Wardrobe
May 21st, 2013
Annually revamping your wardrobe can be a tough task, especially with trends evolving from season to season. It’s almost impossible to know what to keep and what to donate, but the following are five timeless staples that every woman must own all year round.
1. First and foremost, an LBD, this can come in handy during holiday parties or wedding season, so it’s a no brainer.
2. A crisp white blouse, this look never goes out of style, whether it’s for a job interview or a Read More...
Montreal Fashion Jobs – Share Some Sunshine
May 20th, 2013
Yellow is a standout shade that instantly draws the eye, so it can be a bit tricky to work into your wardrobe. Pale yellow is infinitely wearable, while bright, richly pigmented yellows are a bolder choice. Because it’s such a noticeable colour, you must choose the other shades of your outfit with care. Black on yellow immediately screams bumblebee or taxicab, but white and denim perfectly offset yellow’s bright nature. Choose a standout piece like a shirt or sundress, or add a sma Read More...
Fashion Jobs – Crazy for Nella Bella
May 17th, 2013
A few months back, I had the pleasure of attending a fabulous Fall/Winter 2013 preview by Nella Bella’s creative director Tarek Al-Azbat. Nella Bella was established by Tarek as a handbag line made entirely of vegan fabrics. Eco friendly fashion is on the rise and having seen how amazing these bags were, I couldn’t help myself and thought this was something that must be shared with all of our StyleNineToFive readers.
Not only was I taken aback by the great fabrics, Tarek Read More...
Vancouver Fashion Jobs – Office Space Sandals
May 15th, 2013
May sunshine is here, so stop covering up your gorgeous pedicure with socks and closed-toe shoes. Even if you have an office-based 9-to-5 gig, there are lots of work-appropriate sandals that will show off your perfectly polished toes. Most business-casual workplaces frown upon flip-flops and athletic sandals, but a sophisticated pair of sandals with a little more foot coverage maintains the look of a consummate professional and lets your feet breathe. Incorporate these work-ready san Read More...
Calgary Fashion Jobs – Biker Gang
May 14th, 2013
Recently, leather has taken over the runway and the streets. As Fashion Week gave us a peak into the hottest Fall/Winter trends of 2013, we saw leather all over the place. Fashion lovers could not wait to get their hands on some trendy leather jackets, so this spring, expect to see a lot of it. Whether it be tough black with a sundress, fresh white, or a pop of a bright colour, leather jackets are all the rage this season. Try drawing inspiration from Anna Sui, or Los Angles designer Read More...
Toronto Fashion Jobs – Summer Sunnies
May 14th, 2013
For the most part, we tend to accessorize a little more simply during the summer season. This is in part due to the heat, and the lack of need for layering. Knowing this, choosing the right accessories for your summer outfit are even more important. The perfect pair of sunglasses has the opportunity to really elevate and pull together a summer look. Trends for summer eyewear tend to be diverse, but choosing something that compliments your face shape is a crucial aspect to selecting y Read More...
Montreal Fashion Jobs – Majed by Alexa
May 14th, 2013
I love French label Maje for its dedication to relaxed cool-girl chic. With Alexa Chung as their brand ambassador, the contemporary women’s wear line exudes trendy nonchalance aligned with the likes of Vanessa Bruno, Sandro, and Isabel Marant Etoile. For spring, Brit It-Girl Chung took on a styling role with the label, entitled ‘Majed by Alexa.’ The collaboration presented a contest where three lucky winners were outfitted by the icon and featured on the site, and Maje also creat Read More...
Fashion Jobs – Camping Essentials
May 12th, 2013
Camping season is upon us – it is the perfect opportunity to escape the bustling city and revel in the great outdoors. When packing for a weekend getaway, try to only bring the necessities. You won’t need a lot of accessories to spruce up your outfit because you will mostly be gallivanting in gingham and a bathing suit. Make sure to bring a rain coat just in case the unspeakable happens so you can still have a good time. Say hi to mother nature for me!
