What is going on here? Is that She-Ra? Photo via zimbio.com
Yesterday, while we were humming and hawing over whether or not to wear cement-coloured polish, the Tokyo Nail Expo was showing off mind-blowingly intricate nail design–3D Hello Kitty, lace, diamonds, giant rosettes and what appears to be She-Ra. The annual nail extravaganza also includes the Japanese-celeb laden Nail Queen Awards, which appears to be a cross between a beauty pageant and the Contessas. [Zimbio]
The symphony of colours, patterns, textures, forms and silhouettes in fashion transcribes into a cultural and historical dialogue into the Textile Museum of Canada’s exhibit, The Cutting Edge (to July 7, $12, 55 Centre Ave., 416-599-5321, textilemuseum.ca).

Winter has been coming down so hard in Montreal the past couple of weeks that it’s hard to keep it stylish without freezing out to death on the streets.

Around here, we’re getting pretty jaded about these high/low designer collaborations. We’d never begrudge anyone their Abaeté for Payless pumps (least of all because we love them ourselves), but it’s starting to feel like enough. Don’t get us wrong, getting designer wear for mall prices is really excellent, it’s just not as exciting as it was in the olden days of 2004.

All of us fashionable ladies in the office can hardly contain ourselves when talk turns to Sex and the City: The Movie. (We’ve already bought our matinee tickets for May 30th!) So when I was asked to come by Davids on Bloor Street for an intimate little cocktail party to show off their Sex-themed windows, I could not pass it up. For the first time ever, Davids decided to unveil a window theme for their flagship store, with well-thought-out selections showing off the style of the four major females in the film (as well as the four leading men). Sponsored by Skyy Vodka, the low-key affair also showcased five yummy cocktails based on each of the women and one for Mr. Big, natch. The Samantha was naturally tarty, the Carrie was more refined, and so on.
