The Montreal Styling Diva – Fashion Confessions
As a stylist and fashion teacher I use Spring- Summer trends, (or Fall-winter trends) mostly as a guideline to keep stylish and current. In practice, trends are there to whet your appetite- to change or freshen things up a bit. Now, depending on where you look, the information on trends can be inundating and super...

The mesh trend is one that's here to stay- and with its endless styling possibilities, well it's no wonder! Mesh has a way of elevating even the simplest of looks. Personally I've been rocking the sheer look for quite some time and it's helped me become more creative with my styling- especially when it comes to layering.... Continue Reading →

Time for a fashion change...History shows us how events that change the world affect fashion. Is it time to say good-bye to athleisure wear?
Nothing says summer like a garden party. Barbecues and fun gatherings with family and friends are all part of the fun that summer weekends have to offer. And here in Montreal, with only 2 months of summer sunshine and heat, our weekend gatherings are super precious to us; we basically pray for no rain! Another... Continue Reading →
I love a good deal and I will not lie- especially when it comes to dresses. I have a personal obsession when it comes to shopping for a dress. I ask myself: Can I wear it backwards (meaning front to back and vice-versa)? I don't only buy dresses that can be worn both ways- but... Continue Reading →
In fashion we tend to mostly focus on garments and brands as one. But when we talk about designers along with the brand, it makes it so much more relatable, or personable.
