Toronto shop notes: 7 For All Mankind
Need a new pair of blues? 7 For All Mankind (7forallmankind.com), the Los Angeles–based premium denim/lifestyle brand, has opened its first retail store in Toronto at the Yorkdale Shopping Centre (3401 Dufferin St., 416-789-3261, yorkdale.com). Boasting an impressive denim selection (this fall it’s all about the return of flared jeans), this store also carries 7’s sportswear, accessories and debut children’s collection.

Is Yorkdale like the Octomom for shopping? 7 For All Mankind is the latest to move in
It’s been a seriously good year for Yorkdale shoppers. First Topshop at the Bay, then the Holt Renfrew expansion, then J.Crew, and now this: 7 For All Mankind has chosen the mall to house their first Toronto location. Can we get a heck, yes?
In addition to what we’re sure will be an impressive selection of denim, the outpost will feature the L.A.-based brand’s sportswear, accessories, and new children’s collections. To celebrate the opening, 7 will be getting arty by inviting seven Canadian artists to create a unique piece out of denim. The artworks will be auctioned off, with all proceeds going to charity. Fans can get their hands on their favourite items following the event, which takes place August 31.
The company is seeking to expand into further west in Canada with a shop already set up in Calgary and another on the way in Edmonton.

Then and now: These celebs and fashion insiders know how to do retro without going back in time
It’s no secret that we’re all a little fixated with the styles of the past. Each season, a reference (or many) to full skirts, bellbottoms, or drop waists pops up on the runway, and we embrace it with a fresh new take on how to dress it up. Riffing on the past without looking like you came out of a time machine though—therein lies the rub. Before you delve into your old gems, take a look at how the style icons of today have interpreted the icons of days gone by.

True Blood recap: We take wardrobe cues from Arlene’s baby exorcism, Jesus and Lafayette’s Mexican roadtrip, and Pam’s rotting face
The last we saw of Sook and the gang, Pam had just been given a case of The Rots from Marnie, Sookie had fended off Bill’s desire to search her house for Eric, and Jason had been given wrist-to-mouth by Jessica.
Family Ties
-Last week, Joe Lee cut short Tommy’s mama-son bonding session by wrapping a chain around his neck, and now we pick up with him viciously beating Tommy until he passes out—or pretends to.
-Tommy’s trick works, but by the time the dust settles he’s murdered Joe Lee and accidently given his furious mama a hard enough whack to kill her.
-He goes crying to Sam, and the two take off with the bodies in the back of the kind of van your parents always warned you to avoid.
-The pedo van raises Sheriff Bellefleur’s V-enhanced suspicions, and he pulls Sam over and demands to see what’s in the back. He gets a surprise when an alligator (aka a quick-thinking shifted Tommy) snaps out at him and he lets Sam go. Tommy, proudly: “I didn’t kill him.” Sam, dryly: “And Jesus wept.”
-They ditch the bodies in the swamp and have a heart-to-heart: Sam assures Tommy he isn’t going to hell, and admits he’s killed before too. Brothers who sink bodies together stay together—let’s hope, since they’re all each other has now.
