Fidelity Denim

I’m always the opposite when it comes to jeans, everyone is going wide leg and I’m finally enjoying the skinny leg. Fidelity now has skinny jeans in a rainbow of colours- Winter White, Sunflower, Stone, Sky, Sable Black, Plum, Monteray Midnight, Metal Navy, Lime, Green, Fuschia, Curaco, Cranberry, Charcoal, Berry. I’m liking the Fuschia.

I have a great pair of Fidelity Jeans that were purchased in 2005 and they are still one of my favourite pairs. I bet their skinny jeans are very comfortable.

They are $140 and available at the following Over The Rainbow, Mendocino, Body Blue, Joelles, Leslies, Agent 99, Denim 101, Something Irrestible, Swank, Mimi & Coco, Tea Leaf, Foosh, Bamboo Ballroom, Lucys and JJ Whiskey

When Tommy Ton was in Paris for the fall collections he took some amazing pictures of the Lanvin Window Display. He’s let me post some of the pics here. Thanks Tommy

This is my favourite picture. The dress is gorgeous and the yellow would look killer on me. I would just need a little man to carry a fan for wind around behind me like John G has.

Canadian jewelery designer, Karen McClintock looks lovely. Hot shoes!

There are a few people in Toronto that make my style icons list. One is Mary from Holt’s and the other is journalist Nathalie Atkinson. She looks amazing all the time and is a huge supporter of Canadian fashion. She was a ravishing display of colour that night. Here is a run down of her outfit.

  • glasses by Rapp (handmade in Toronto!)
  • garden insect necklace of vintage buttons and charms, made custom to theme by the amazing Clare Ramen of Buttercup Days
  • vintage fabric clutch by Bennie & Olive
  • silk drape skirt and silk draped top both by Véronique Miljkovitch of Montreal (bought at the MADE show last season, but you can buy her stuff at Model Citizen and Basia in town)
  • shoes by Chie Mihara – not Canadian

    Andrew Sardone rocked the yellow shoes. I so want some.
