With NYFW debuting today, Alexander McQueen’s death is even more of a blow. I would like to share Alexander McQueen’s last show with you which showcased his 2010 Spring/Summer collection. The fashion world has lost a legend and ...

I absolutely love reading about new designers and their recent accomplishments, but I especially enjoyed reading about designer Dinh Ba because he’s right here at home in Canada…more specifically Quebec.

So was it just me or did everyone else weep like a little girl last night on the Neighborhood Inaugural Ball show when President Barack Obama and his wife Michelle took the floor and danced to Beyonce’s rendition of ‘At Last’? Ok good, it wasn’t just me then! And I must say for a first lady…Michelle’s got some style! I posted the video below so you can see what I’m talking about – just beautiful!

She looks hot...

I don’t know about the Sears in the States, but the big ...
