    Chloe Sevigny knows what she's doing. She's best known for her roles on Big Love and in Boys Don't Cry, but also just as well-known for always looking cool and chic both on and off the red carpet. Though American-born, she seems to possess a European grace and polish to her clothing choices. As the face of fragrance for the house of Chloe, I know I'm not the only one that recognizes her subtle glamour. Her trick? Wearing neutrals and patterns that don't overcome her own beauty, and keeping her hair long and loose. To get her look, choose individual pieces with wonderful detail like scalloping or a reserved lace. Check out my slideshow for Chloe Sevigny style tricks! Photo credit: PR Photos

    I'll admit it -- I've spent the last four months hidden away inside my Toronto apartment just waiting for the warm weather again. Time not wasted though -- I've been keeping busy head-starting the season by staking out my summer wardrobe! After all, who doesn't love online shopping? With careful consideration I was able to sift through all of my options and weed out my absolute summer must-haves from the pages and pages of things I loved but could realistically live without for now (I guess). If you haven't given yourself the same ahead-of-the-season jump start on your summer shopping, don't fret! There's still some time to get some advanced shopping done online. And hey, you could also always last-minute shop online from the poolside! Personally, I'm prepared to spend most of my summer outdoors, so I chose some key pieces that should carry me through both in style and with comfort. For further inspiration, check out the slideshow for some Designers Connect-approved summer staples and get ready to enjoy the sunshine with fashionable friends!

    This holiday season, impress your friends with inexpensive and fair trade designs by emerging independent fashion designers. It's not haute couture (designed just for you), but it's the next closest thing! Besides, it's way more affordable and also supports an amazing fashion concept. Buying independent means the items are not mass-produced, and range from production quantities of sometimes twenty to one hundred pieces made for each style. These independent designers like to keep their collections fresh and current, recycling old styles and moving forward each season. Doesn't the idea of showing up at a party only to find another guest has already arrived wearing your same dress sound so embarrassing? We've put together a quick gallery of our favorite holiday dresses made exclusively by independent fashion designers so you can be sure this won't happen to you.
