Sarah Jessica Parker Blake Lively Target Toronto Opening

On Wednesday, Target rolled out the red carpet to celebrate its arrival into our home and native land. Walking on said carpet and heading towards the aisles and aisles of goods in the Danforth location in Toronto was none other than megawatt stars Sarah Jessica Parker and Blake Lively, looking positively springy with floral details.

Both dressed in light ensembles but we saw SJP in an age-appropriate outfit with white pants, a sheer polka dot button-up and safety pinned blazer over top. What really made the whole look stand out was the oversized flower boutineer on her shoulder, taking florals for spring to a very literal place.

As for Lively, the actress extended the hemline from what we’ve grown used to on Gossip Girl and opted for a pale watercolour floral dress from Roland Mouret’s Spring 2013 collection. Lively’s pale skin and pale hair and pale dress was all tied together with a bright pair of floral “Sissi” pumps by Christian Louboutin and the look didn’t even wash her out.

2013 Must Have Accessories

See all 36 must-have Spring 2013 accessories »

If you’re looking to round out your Spring 2013 wardrobe before the thermometer hits a favourable temperature, we have some easy fixes and it’s all about accessories. From peekaboo panels on red leather purses to woven wedges, these on-trend pieces can complete any look.

For Spring 2013 we saw festival style take its place on the runways of Altuzarra and Band of Ousiders, so why not complete your Coachella packing with a woven bangle and wicker clutch? Sun-drenched raffia, wicker and straw are woven into wedges, stacked heels and shopping totes, signalling laid-back summer style. And if you’re not flocking to one of the many summer festivals and want to keep it basic, the new see-through trend is one that will keep you in the clear. Basic accessories have been redefined by giving oxford shoes plastic inserts and chunky heels on strappy sandals have been made see-through. These peekaboo plastic panels lend lightness to polished metallics and patent leathers. Read more »

Ah, the ankle strap. For many shoe styles, it is just a necessity—a thin piece of leather that keeps your foot from stepping out of your shoe—but this season, it’s become trendy. Why? For starters, let’s look back to the Spring 2013 runways, where ankle strap heels and sandals were seen in a multitude of variations.

At Bottega Veneta, chunky platforms in dark textured leathers were made feminine with the addition of the ankle strap. At Burberry Prorsum, wedges in bright colours were showcased in different materials with a very thin ankle strap and high back to cover the heel. Almost the entire cast of models at Nina Ricci were seen in beautiful single soled high heels with two thin straps-one across the toes and one around the ankle.

Forget the runway, everyone knows there’s a whole other fashion show going down on its sidelines. At Diane Von Furstenberg’s Fall 2013 show during New York Fashion Week, we spotted two pretty little Canucks sporting two pretty little pairs of pants in dueling Valentine’s Day hues.

Pretty Little Liars star Shay Mitchell wore DVF’s bright pink Naples tuxedo pant and paired it with very classic pieces allowing that power piece to shine: a relaxed black blazer, black blouse and black Christian Louboutin pumps. Mitchell complemented the pant with a pink pout perfectly highlighting the bright shade.

Kristen Stewart vs. Sienna Miller: Who wore Erdem Spring 2013 best?

While red carpet season is typically dominated by familiar designer names like Chanel, Oscar de la Renta and Marchesa, there finally seems to be a shift in tide. That tide is heading across the pond, where after years of building buzz, London’s designers are finally being rewarded with some serious A-list love. In the last month alone, Peter Pilotto, Marios Schwab and Simone Rocha have all graced red carpets. To boot, major fashion force PPR bought 51% of Christopher Kane’s label, showing major confidence in the London-based star.

And as for the subject of today’s post, Canadian-born and London-based Erdem Moralioglu is rising in the ranks quite steadily with the addition of two megawatt fans. In addition to his continuous props from Kate Middleton aka. the Duchess of Cambridge, who wore the designer’s pieces twice (#1 and #2!) during her Canadian visit in 2011, and again this summer on Royal Tour to Southeast Asia.

Kristen Stewart's Twilight Breaking Dawn Part Two premiere looks

See all of Kristen Stewart’s Twilight Breaking Dawn Part Two premiere looks »

This week in Kristen Stewart land, it’s been all about skin. That and a little thing called Twilight Breaking Dawn: Part Two. Stewart launched her globetrotting premiere tour in a sheerer than sheer Zuhair Murad gown which left little to the imagination, only to follow it up with another the next day in London. Today, she ended the whirlwind in another bang: a glimmering Elie Saab column dress with a leg slit that could rival only Angelina Jolie’s.

Allowing her to show off a pair of lace up Christian Louboutin heels, the custom Elie Saab dress was matched with an equally bold beauty look, with Kristen Stewart wearing a dark smoky eye with a natural lip colour and a high messy ponytail.

We’re going to take a small pause to acknowledge the fact that Robert Pattinson seems to have a case of frosted tips straight out of 1999. Other than his potentially questionable hair, his grey suit and black tie is the perfect note to end on at the Berlin premiere. Taylor Lautner even returned from his recent overly casual looks in an all black suit. If Kristen Stewart hadn’t selected such stunning looks throughout the tour, the guys could have stolen the show.
