Toronto: Our favourite new spot for a (healthy) power lunch
by Rani Sheen
Posted on 2 Sep 2010 at 3:00pm A working lunch is all too often an exercise in indulgence, crammed with cream and butter and overly salted.

The daily steal: Purple nail polish, $4
by Jennifer Campbell
Posted on 2 Sep 2010 at 8:37am Nail polish shades have lately produced a kind of cultish frenzy. New shades appear and we all hanker to try them, or we inquire enviously when we spot an especially cool shade on a coworkers toes.

Hall Of Shame
Posted on 3 Sep 2010 at 8:30am   Last night our editor at large arrived home to find her 15-year-old son had purchased the perfect pea coat to take back to school.

Grand designs
Posted on 2 Sep 2010 at 10:42am   We joined the inspired and structurally minded at the Venice Architecture Biennale to find an array of serious to whacky propositions from countries worldwide.

Head Girls
Posted on 2 Sep 2010 at 4:16am   The battle is on for the coolest and most stylish headphones, and one good contender now that everyone has Beatmaster and Bose just look a wee bit too serious is the new Audio Chi W-Series headphones. The blue and white version has a charming retro air that would look the part, we think, on a p...
French Dressing
Posted on 1 Sep 2010 at 10:33am       There?s nothing better than a silk blouse for that deshabille look.

The Choice Is Yours
Posted on 27 Aug 2010 at 5:55am   We met Suzie Turner, the designer behind her eponymous label Suzie Turner Couture. This piece fascinated us ? a silk dress that you can wear 26 ways. The perfect multi-wear dress to take anywhere, it even fits in a little bag (which it comes with ? think, holiday packing sorted! ). It?s also re...
Plain and Simple
Posted on 26 Aug 2010 at 11:20am   If you can?t distinguish your merlot from your millerandage, look to the wine list of the Giant Robot restaurant in Clerkenwell. It?s all you need to know.
The Likely Lads
Posted on 25 Aug 2010 at 10:34am   What became of the Likely Lads?

More Tea?
Posted on 25 Aug 2010 at 10:27am   Is it us, or do the afternoons already feeling like they are closing in?
