Montreal Fashion Jobs – 50 Shades of Red

Thursday, February 7th, 2013

No, we’re not talking about “Fifty Shades of Grey” even though so many people love using the “Fifty Shades” line I couldn’t help myself either. Valentine’s Day may be next week but you all should know that this colour is also becoming popular for Spring 2013 so use the holiday for practice before getting into full swing with the rouge.

Red has become such a classic colour expressing so many things that define its impact on the fashion world from complexity, passion to sophistication. However, apart from the traditional lipstick reds that would first pop into our head, let’s not forget that there are tones galore to play with now!

February is still cold so why not warm up to darker wine and burgundy hues that still make a great statement.

The mini is back and popping all over the place where a bright poppy red will make sure to turn heads.

There are so many beautiful stone rings embracing browns and reds, together, complimenting their collaborations with gold.

Orange-red is a colour I am starting to obsess over more and more and can you blame a gal? Wearing a pair of blood orange heels accents any outfit especially when wearing neutral pieces. Everyone will be looking down at your legs.

Red and pink floral prints combine the right mix of strong and soft especially on silk materials and look fantastic with a pair of jeans or leggings.

Coral! Over the past year we have seen jeans in every colour of the rainbow but I must say that coral has always stuck with me. Just like the floral pattern above, coral is the right combination of red, pink and white.

2. Red Valentino Mini Skirt, $295, available at Net-Porter
3. Saint Laurent Gold-Plated Glass Ring, $290, available at Net-Porter

Toronto Fashion Jobs – Gold Rush By Day

Tuesday, January 10th, 2012

There’s never a shortage of glimmer and glitz during the holidays, but the rest of the year can look a little bleak sartorially speaking. If there’s one new piece of style advice we should add to our closets in 2012 it’s that big and small doses of gold transcend the season and the time of day. When paired with austere hues like army green, khaki or denim, a shoe, skirt or accessory piece in a golden shade will add brilliance and interest. Try the new addition to your typical brunch uniform or office outfit and you’ll be golden- literally.

1. Metallic Pleated Midi Skirt, US $72 at Topshop
2. Jimmy Choo Wilma Glitter-Coated Leather Oxfords $587 at Saks.com

3. Sequin Collar $47 ASOS.com

The term “packing light” may be missing from my vocabulary, but I do know a thing or two about looking sharp with a suitcase. Gone are the days of the black (or tacky patterned) travel bag. Modern luggage is highly versatile, functional and most importantly, stylish. The key is to invest in quality luggage and travel bags in order to properly protect your valued items. Just be sure to give the Beckhams a run for their money by sporting some killer shades at the airport.

5. Introducing the perfect solution for shoe fanatics: a shoe case to keep your footwear fresh. Jimmy Choo Shoe Case ($2295), at Net-A-Porter.
