Joe Fresh Spring 2012

We love Joe.  All of our readers know that.  We’re stoked about the new downtown store at Queen & Portland and can’t wait for Spring to pick up some of these pieces.  The Joe Fresh runway show is always a highlight at LG Fashion Week, and here are our favorite looks from the runway.

SS12 Jay Manuel Attitude for Sears

We have all been fans of America’s Next Top Model.  Whether you watched season 1 or went through all the installments, we are all fans.  So the big question is, Jay or Tyra?  Julie and I have always been Jay Manuel fans from start to finish.  The sympathetic judge who still has enough edge to take a jab at the aspiring models – we think he is the cats meow.  And on top of that, he is Canadian, born in raised in Toronto.  Toot toot!  So you can imagine we were delighted to hear he was working with Sears Canada, designing a collection for their home brand Attitude.  Here are our favorite looks.  CM

Pink Tartan Spring 2012

Julie and I were delighted to attended Wednesday nights Pink Tartan show.  One of the hardest to get into (along with Joe Fresh), every seat in the house was filled with Toronto’s fashion elite sitting in the front row along the catwalk.  Although fall is just coming to a close, we made out list for what we need from Pink Tartan next spring.  Here are our favorite looks.

Rudsak Fashion Show

We forgot to post these!  The Rudsak fashion show was pretty great last week at LG Fashion Week in Toronto.  These Canadian designed coats are the perfect combination of fashion and function.  I have an awesome Rudsak coat (see here), and I’d like to get another one soon.  They rock the boat. Go Canada! JD

Joe Knows Part 1

We were happy to attend the Joe Fresh Fall/Winter 2010 fashion show last night as part of LG Fashion Week! The Joe show is one of the most coveted of Toronto Fashion Week because it’s fun, functional, and Joe just knows. We especially wanted to attend this show because their pieces are of good quality and always budget friendly – two things we can’t resist.

We have so much to say about the collection and runway shots to share, but that will be part 2 of our Joe Knows post. Here are a few shots of us before the show….

I opted to wear my ballet shoe coloured dress from H&M for the occasion because it’s fun and fancy free. Wearing it as the full dress is a bit much and makes me look like a 6-year-old ballerina, so I toned it down with a basic grey t-shirt from Joe Fresh, my H&M moto jacket, lace tights from Club Monaco, and giant earrings from a street vendor in Soho, NY. JD

In Joe spirit I wore my pink, acid-washed Joe Fresh jeans that were $19.  Shirt was $14 from Winners and jacket is from Zara.  My gold clutch was a $4 vintage purchase from the George Brown College store when I was there as a Fashion student.  Shoes were a $40 Zara purchase on sale, necklace is Forever 21.  I’ve recently developed an obsession for Nars lipstick – specifically their semi-mattes.  Here, I am wearing Funny Face.
