I wore this last saturday, forgot to post the picture. I think this dress overwhelms my frame a little. I'm under 5' 5", so I always tend to wear heels, otherwise this dress would totally look like a sack on me. I think tiered skirts and dresses look better on taller ladies.Oh well, it was hot and I needed to be comfy and this dress is white and loose and light.Layered the swooping bird and

I had a few people emailing about the Zachary's Smile dress I posted about a few days ago, not to mention various people commented they loved it. So, I decided to that ZS deserves its own post.Zachary's Smile is a small boutique in NYC's Greenwich Village that stocks vintage clothing from the 1940s through 1980s. Very eclectic, very original. Their own line offers pieces with a vintage-y feel

Well, that might be about to change.Behold trendsetters Rachel Bilson and Lindsay Lohan showing off some arm candy from Zac Posen.

Dress by Zachary's Smile. Created exclusively for Barneys. What I love about this dress is that every dress ZS made for Barneys is a one of a kind creation. No two are exactly the same. There are differences in patterns and colors between all dresses made for the Barneys line.Since the dress is so colorful, I went with neutral pumps by Kenneth Cole.

My fellow blogger Shopdiary recently posted about the dark nailpolish trend sweeping the fashion industry and I must say I am incredibly happy about that. When it comes to polish, I favor extremes. It has to be very pale or very dark.I am currently obsessed with OPI's Lincoln Park After Dark. It's a black-purple that's not as harsh as pure black but makes an equally strong statement. If you

Hilary and Haylie Duff are taking their sisterly bond one-step further and appearing as, what else, wealthy sisters, in their upcoming movie titled Material Girls. Hilary is cute, whereas Haylie is, umm, Haylie. Neither sister seems to possess much talent in the acting arena either. I know Haylie is currently starring in Broadway's Hairspray but seriously, how much acting chops does that require?

This event is followed by the actual wedding.This is the outfit I was gifted to wear tonight since I will be acting as a 'bridesmaid', so exciting! It's called Salwar Kameez.

I'm not really a brand/label snob. As long as the product is well-made and good-looking, I'll buy it. I'm always on the lookout for fun and unique items. One recent discovery is Icon shoes.Icon shoes happen to be the first company to print the works of artists such as Warhol, Pollock, Gauguin etc. on shoes, handbags and accessories. They basically create wearable art. More information on stores

I will be posting with details soon, so hold on before you place an order. :)I've been asked about my jewelry more times than I can count. On this blog, by my friends, randomly on the street.

I know my banker friends would never be able to get away with some of the outfits I don occasionally.I didn't get time to take a picture of my outfit last night, but since I bought the pieces online, I have just compiled them here. Ella Moss top. Johnson shorts. Seychelles shoes. The shoes are a deeper blue

I love headbands. I love scarves as headbands. I love long necklaces as headbands. Yes, long necklaces. It's do-able. I've done it.Headbands are great no matter what the season. From 40-something Madonna to 20-something Nicole, which celeb hasn't rocked this look? That's because headbands and scarves wrapped around the head flatter almost everyone. Plus this is one look that appeals to all price

Despite the portrait of outward civility etcetera, don't we all know that there are underlying negative currents between Anna Wintour and Carine Roitfeld, the editors-in-chief of American & French Vogue, respectively? A negativity that was brought out in early 2005 when Roitfeld placed some photographs of Bee Schaffer, Wintour's daughter, right after what was called the most erotic picture in the

I bought these wedges from the Coach store on 5th avenue a few months ago, at full price. When I was in NYC last weekend, I saw them on sale, around 20-25% off I think. I have worn them maybe twice, at most. I can be quite an impulse buyer sometimes, and even though these shoes are the prettiest shade of pewter with a comfortable heel, that first feeling of love I felt for them when I bought them

Is it my imagination or does Ashlee Simpson look like a whole new person? Wavy long blond hair. Tanner, thinner, new body. Not to mention the not-so-new nose.She looks a lot more like her sister Jessica now. Then again, what with Jessica not looking so great lately, I must say Ashlee has one-upped her sister.

This past weekend was amazing. I got to catch up with a bunch of my friends I hadn't seen in ages, most of whom have just started their investment banking jobs that allow very little wardrobe choice.Of course, one can still wear sexy lingerie under the ultraconservative suits, so we decided to stop by Agent Provocateur on Mercer street during our rendezvous in SoHo.

One of my recent finds is New York based, Russian born, designer Yana Gorbulsky and her line of cute, funky, one of a kind pieces known as Supayana clothing. They truly are one of a kind, not only in design but in the choice of materials and the genius way she puts them together. Most of her pieces will fit a small/medium, but she does plan to make larger sizes in the near future. One thing is

H&M recently released the first few pictures of Madonna wearing a tracksuit she designed for H&M.Personally, I don't see anything special about this outfit.

SPOILER WARNING!I assume everyone has seen The Devil Wears Prada by now, and if you haven't, you might want to skip this post since I am about to give away some details. First of all, I loved the movie. I liked it better than the book. The director/screenwriters definitely took quite a few liberties with the movie so there are quite a few differences between the book and the movie. For example,

I once went through a phase where I would watch home decor shows back to back on HGTV. I have sobered up since then, but I still love beautiful furniture, tableware and other items for the home.I recently discovered EQ3, an IKEA like store, but edgier. EQ3 products are available in a number of locations across USA and Canada. They are also sold at certain locations in Latin America, Mexico and

Canadian designer Sujeet Sennik previously worked for Dior, Balenciaga, Ungaro and Marc Jacobs before creating his own label.

Summer time = Vacation time. The months of June/July/August are prime time for going away on vacation, be it to a different city/state/province or a different country. Travelling is one of my favorite things to do, besides shopping, of course. Singapore is one of my favorite vacation spots. The last time I visited was around four or five years ago with my family. I couldn't get over how tiny

Mani-pedis. That's my favorite way to pamper myself. What can be better than sitting back while someone turns your rough worn-out feet into smooth, soft polished tootsies fit for those bejeweled Jimmy Choos? While I frequent Rescue Beauty Lounge, Jin Soon Spa & Dashing Diva when I am in Manhattan, it's been tough to find worthy equivalents here in Toronto. Until recently, that is.Buff Nail

Love & Possession. Subjects of various books, movies and music. And apparently, a bangle bracelet as well. In 1969, Cartier released its Love bracelet on the market but never has it been more popular than right now. Seen on the fashionable wrists of celebrities such as Charlize Theron, Lucy Liu, Salma Hayek and Lindsay Lohan, it is one of most covetable pieces of jewelry out there. Even more so

I'm sure many of you have noticed the slew of celebrities who can't get enough of Alexander McQueen's skull scarf. From Lindsay Lohan to Sienna Miller, every It girl seems to be enamored of it. I believe it retails for upwards of US$300.For those of us who can think of better things to do with $300, there's a pretty great version at only $55.Available in several colors, these skull scarves by

Pick up any of the big name glossies, from Vogue to In Style, and I bet there are almost as many pages dedicated to ads as there are to actual articles.Louis Vuitton ads are some of the most anticipated because of the big name celebrities. So when I saw the new FW06/07 ads, I had mixed feelings. Some were likeable, others not so much. Check out this one with Kate Moss in it, reminds me of the ads

Which fashionista worth her salt is not excited about 'The Devil Wears Prada'? Sure it's no literary masterpiece but it was infinitely more entertaining than 'Bergdorf Blondes.'DWP may be an overhyped movie but I don't think it will be disappointing. This might be a case of the movie being better than the book. Forget might, it will be a case of the movie being better. It's one thing to read

Ok, I like playing the Luxury Loot game at bluefly, and so far I have gotten a bunch of free shipping codes, all of which I obviously will not be using, so I am sharing the wealth here.These codes are only good for one-time use, so multiple people won't be able to use them.

I have many wish lists. Right now, these are some of the items I am coveting. Together, they make a smashing outfit.The bermudas are by Gold Hawk and have eye-catching rose hued embroidery near the pockets. I would wear it with the celery colored wrap by A Common Thread on top, layered with C&C's pale pink tank. The mint Bruno Magli pumps complete the look. I wish I could put them all together in

Fridays are the best.LaRok top. I had it before Rihanna wore it in her 'Unfaithful' video. Gap straight-leg jeans. The tank is ivory with light gold lace detail. It goes nicely with the top. Gold wedges completed the look.

One reader very kindly pointed out that the blog moniker was too similar to the publication: Women's Wear Daily, even though it's "women" there and "woman" here, so I decided to change it to a more suitable (in every way) name and add that little disclaimer at the bottom. Hopefully that should suffice. :D

Which cities are among the most courteous in the world? New York comes in at #1, with Toronto at #3. Two of the biggest, highly populated, very multicultural cities in the world are also among the most courteous.A Reader's Digest survey of 35 cities around the world yielded these results. Surprising for some, justified for others. For those of us who live in these big, dense cities, practicing

This is a fun work outfit. Skirt and cardigan, both by Kookai. The skirt has ivory lace on the bottom edge. The cardigan has the coolest lace detailing. The lace is a peachy color with light indigo lace insets. The picture doesn't do justice to the loveliness of this piece.

Black is the new black.If you flip through July's Elle (US Edition), that's the message waiting in literally every single page.Seems like designers are strongly reinforcing black in their fall collections. For those of us who know black is always 'IN' this issue is not worth picking up. Only the jewelry coverage stood out for me.Elle's got Hilary Duff on the cover, with a not-so-interesting

Hayden Harnett bags. One of the best kept secrets in NYC. They have the cutest bags in leather and canvas, but what's really great about them is that they are as practical as they are cute. Everything is priced under $600, and they are every bit as good as Botkier and Kooba bags. I just bought the Havana hobo in moss green, the one pictured below is Mulberry lamb. I had a hard time deciding

I'm an eyeliner girl. I can forego mascara, lipstick, what-have-you, but without eyeliner, I feel naked in public. I have pretty much tried every hyped and awarded liner out there, and have gathered a few favorites for everyday wear.Photo courtesy of Bobbi Brown CosmeticsFor the most natural look, nothing beats gel eyeliner which usually comes in a pot. When used with a proper liner brush, it
