When makeup artist Violette spies an incredible fabric, her instinct is to bring its qualities to a face. “I try to recreate the texture and colour on the eyelid,” she says, wearing a white T-shirt, mauve satin skirt and delicate gold jewellery, her shaggy brown bangs grazing her eyelashes. “I’ll change the shape of eyeliner to make it more couture, or I’ll blur the edge of a red lipstick to make it feel like the shape of a dress or a fabric.”
Born in Paris and now based in Brooklyn, Violette—who goes by her first name only—was not formally trained in makeup artistry, which she believes she benefited from. “It’s really old school,” she says. “It’s not about inspiration or expressing yourself.” Instead, she studied fashion design and art, the latter training her eye for her future career. “It helped me understand volume in the face and body and how light is supposed to hit the skin,” she says.
“I’ll change the shape of eyeliner to make it more couture.”
Avoiding a more traditional path worked out for her. In 2017, she was appointed global beauty director at Estée Lauder, where she is conscious of the storied American brand’s legacy as well as its founder. “This company was created by a woman in an era when it was impossible for a woman to start a business,” she says. And though she sees herself as “a guest in this house,” she still brings her savoir faire to the brand, especially when it comes to product development.

That’s evident with La Dangereuse, her second makeup collection for Estée Lauder, which was inspired by a quote: “A well-read woman is a dangerous creature.” “I created a story about this fabulous woman in the ’30s in Italy,” she says. “She’s very rich and beautiful and has incredible taste.”
Picturing this woman’s closet and home (“satin dresses and velvet curtains”), Violette decided to base every product on these imagined textiles. She ordered “the best” fabric samples from France and Italy, assembled them in a book and then took it to Estée Lauder’s labs in Toronto, where she asked the chemists to match product shades and textures to her swatches.
The result is nine items that Violette says are unrivalled. “You haven’t seen anything on the market like this,” she says. There’s a pot of glitter that is so fine she swears it’s easy to work with and an eye gloss with holographic pigment that you can use as a highlighter. And then there are the eyeshadow palettes: “Blue Dahlia” was inspired by “how the colours of the darkest roses look in the dark—mostly everything turns blue and green,” she says.

The palette includes a shade Violette claims is one of the best products she’s ever created. “It’s the perfect velvet mix of black and blue,” she says as she presses her finger into the pigment and strokes it over the back of her hand. “To me, it’s even chicer than wearing a smoky eye or black eyeliner.”
The “Amour, Amour” palette features burgundy and copper tones; in fact, she’s wearing one of the shades today. “All of the colours are like foil and fuse with your skin,” she says. And, she insists, they are easy to wear even though they’re strong. “That’s what I’m going to try to show women: how to wear these and feel like yourself.”

It was almost a year ago that Gucci’s head offices were raided after the luxury brand was suspected of tax evasion. Now it seems the case may finally go to trial.
Milan officers recently finished up their investigation into the company and now allege that the brand owes the Italian tax authorities around €1 billion (over $1.5 billion Canadian) for revenues booked between 2010 and 2016.
They suspect that the company was paying taxes on profits generated within Italy in a different country that had a more beneficial taxing system. For example, Gucci is part of the French luxury group Kering. Kering uses the Swiss company, Luxury Goods International (LGI), to manage the distribution and logistics of many of its brands. Prosecutors are essentially arguing that Gucci’s revenues should be taxed in Italy, not in Switzerland.
A source claimed that Gucci’s Chief Executive, Marco Bizzarri and the company’s former CEO, Patrizio Di Marco are the main subjects of the investigation and while their lawyers have yet to comment on the situation, Kering has released an official statement. The company said they were “confident about the correctness and transparency of its operating mode” and that they were “cooperating actively with the competent authorities.”
A judicial source has revealed that in the wake of the investigation wrapping, there’s been a formal request for trial. Unless the parties can reach a settlement or new evidence emerges, the case will be sent to court in 20 days.
Hopefully this news will not affect our ability to purchase totally impractical hiking boots or crystal-embellished loafers in the near future.

For a remote island with around 70 inhabitants, northern Scotland’s Fair Isle has had an impressively outsized impact on culture. Its eponymous sweaters are beloved for both their distinctive zigzag patterns and their practical warmth; they were reportedly worn by polar scientists on the 1902 Bruce expedition to Antarctica, and the Prince of Wales brought them into public view in the 1920s when he donned the nubby knits. Fair Isle replicas (see below) have become immensely popular thanks to their provincial, old-world charm, but the genuine article is still hard to come by—islander Hollie Shaw has a wait-list that’s three years long for one of her hand-knit sweaters.

You’d be hard pressed in this day and age to walk into a café and not find a version of avocado toast on the menu. It’s reached the point where the dish has not only taken over the food scene, but developed into something bigger, transcending its spot on the plate to become a cultural symbol of sorts and (let’s not forget) the butt of almost every millennial joke.
But while it’s clear we are living in avocado crazed times, the green pear-shaped fruit hadn’t reached the skincare industry until now, with the launch of Glow Recipe’s Avocado Melt Sleeping Mask.
You may already know about the brand’s watermelon version. The millennial pink mask was an instant hit with customers, selling out seven times over on their website and garnering a wait list of more than 8,000 people at Sephora. “People loved the lightweight texture and the AHAs that resurfaced skin effectively,” says Sarah Lee, co-CEO and co-founder of Glow Recipe. “We heard from our customers that they wanted the same benefits but needed extra moisture.”
That’s where avocado came in. With its nourishing qualities, the antioxidant-rich fruit made the perfect new hero ingredient. It’s a creamier version of its pastel pink sibling and adds a huge boost of hydration–something much needed now that winter is upon us. “It features avocado in a high concentration,” says Christine Chang, fellow co-founder and co-CEO. “74% of the formula contains four forms of avocado: avocado extract, avocado oil, avocado butter, and avocado flesh.”
This new formula also includes soothing Manuka honey and Polyhydroxy Acids or PHA’s to offer gentle exfoliation and give a calming effect to skin. So come to this mask for the avocado fever, but stay for the soothing and hydrating formula.

By the time I reached university, I knew the acceptable answer to “Who’s your favourite author?” should under no circumstances be “Sophie Kinsella.” Despite her back catalogue of New York Times bestsellers—including the insanely successful Confessions of a Shopaholic series—it wasn’t prudent to cite as your scribe of choice a pretty young woman who wrote mostly about pretty young women and their dalliances with men, shoes and career chaos. Not if you wanted to be taken seriously, that is.
No, you were much better off citing Noam Chomsky, Kurt Vonnegut or, hell, even Stephen King. Chick lit, the sort of novels Kinsella wrote, were for silly women: the type who can’t exercise a modicum of self-restraint when in driving distance of an end-of-season sale. When Emily Giffin’s first novel, Something Borrowed, hit stores in 2005, with that giant engagement ring and cutesy lowercase typeface on its pastel pink cover, I steered clear of it like it was a bottle of birthday-cake vodka. When Giffin was heralded as one of the biggest chick lit novelists of all time by everyone from The New York Times (in the Style section, naturally) to Buzzfeed, my stance was quietly reaffirmed.
“I’ve always dealt with nuanced relationship issues and the messiness of life. If a man wrote the same stories, it wouldn’t be called chick lit.”
“I’ve never written chick lit,” declares Giffin when I speak with her over the phone. “My characters aren’t sitting in swanky bars, drinking martinis and shoe shopping; I’ve always dealt with nuanced relationship issues and the messiness of life. If a man wrote the same stories, it wouldn’t be called chick lit.” Giffin, who was briefly a lawyer with a Manhattan firm before becoming a novelist, knows how to make a point: “Nora Ephron is considered a romcom writer, and Woody Allen is given all kinds of accolades. They both write relationship-driven stories about people sorting out their emotions. How does Woody Allen get more weight than Nora Ephron?”
It’s not something you’ll hear Giffin, fresh off the book tour for her instant bestseller, All We Ever Wanted, talk about often. After all, she admits to being the beneficiary of some savvy marketing on the part of her publisher, changing the title of her first book from its working title, Rolling the Dice, to Something Borrowed and putting a pink cover on it when the chick lit genre was exploding with hits like Bridget Jones’s Diary and The Devil Wears Prada. “I usually dance around these questions; but it’s the end of my tour and, what the heck, I’m just going to tell the truth here,” Giffin tells me.
Perhaps Lauren Weisberger, the name behind The Devil Wears Prada, Everyone Worth Knowing and new release When Life Gives You Lululemons, was of the same mind when she flat out told me she didn’t want to answer questions about her experience as a female author and stonewalled any discussion of feminism with one-word answers and polite nods when we chatted. However, it seems more likely that Giffin and Weisberger are two different women who aim to write two very different types of novels.
Weisberger focuses on writing “fun, engaging books that make people laugh,” while Giffin prides herself on her nuanced characters, like that of a boy who’s badly burned in a campfire or a young unwed mother who secretly gives up her baby for adoption. Her new release, All We Ever Wanted, tackles a #MeToo-style sexual assault alongside issues of classism, racism and substance abuse. That the two women’s works are packaged under the misnomer “chick lit” is at best nonsensical and at worst blatantly sexist.
“I usually dance around these questions; but it’s the end of my tour and, what the heck, I’m just going to tell the truth here.”
It’s ironic that the term was first used ironically in 1995 by Cris Mazza and Jeffrey DeShell as the title for their edited anthology of “postfeminist” short-fiction writing, Chick Lit: Postfeminist Fiction. And while it has fallen out of favour these days, as buzzy marketing terms tend to do, around the mid-aughts it was widely used to describe novels written by female authors for presumed female audiences. While commercially successful, chick lit novels were often dismissed by critics. The review from The New York Times for Bridget Jones’s Diary was scathing: “Bridget is such a sorry spectacle, wallowing in her man-crazed helplessness, that her foolishness cannot be excused.”
Over the years, female authors have gone to battle over the term, with some, like Jenny Colgan and Jennifer Weiner, launching a passionate defence of their genre and others, like Dame Beryl Bainbridge and Doris Lessing, declaring it damaging to female writers. “It’s a pity that so many young women are writing like that […] It would be better, perhaps, if they wrote books about their lives as they really saw them and not these helpless girls, drunken, worrying about their weight and so on,” Lessing told BBC Radio 4’s Today. (Ouch.)
“Nora Ephron is considered a romcom writer, and Woody Allen is given all kinds of accolades. How does Woody Allen get more weight than Nora Ephron?”
As the new feminist resistance and the #MeToo movement took hold, chick lit—both the term and the genre—seemed increasingly out of touch. While the market flooded with feminist-y and increasingly diverse works by female writers (Roxane Gay’s Bad Feminist, Lilly Singh’s How to Be a Bawse, Cat Marnell’s How to Murder Your Life, Tiffany Haddish’s The Last Black Unicorn, Durga Chew-Bose’s Too Much and Not the Mood and Alana Massey’s All the Lives I Want), where were the diverse, crowd-pleasing female-centric narratives? Where was the woke chick lit?
As I chat with Giffin, it becomes clear that perhaps some of the progressive and complex commercial women’s fiction has been there all along, hidden under pastel colours and glossy marketing campaigns. “It doesn’t offend me to be categorized as chick lit, but I think it’s unfortunate that people who would connect with these characters might not read my books because they don’t think they would enjoy chick lit,” she says.
“It doesn’t offend me to be categorized as chick lit, but I think it’s unfortunate that people who would connect with these characters might not read my books because they don’t think they would enjoy chick lit.”
But there are signs that things are changing. This June, coverage of previously unknown 27-year-old writer Fatima Farheen Mirza’s A Place for Us struck a new tone. Her novel is about an Indian-American family who struggles with heritage, death, arranged marriages and opioid addiction. Its cover art isn’t dissimilar to many of Giffin’s titles, and it has the added burden of being the first novel from Sarah Jessica Parker’s new imprint, SJP for Hogarth.
Five years ago, A Place for Us would have suffered a fate similar to that of Something Borrowed. This year, it was positively reviewed in the Books section of both The New York Times and The Washington Post, with the latter running the headline “Sarah Jessica Parker Thinks She Knows What You Should Read. She’s Right.”
But there’s also an emerging cohort of authors determined to embrace the fun, frothy nature of stereotypical chick lit while featuring strong female characters and themes ranging from racism to LGBTQ issues. One of the most successful recent examples comes from Toronto-based debut novelist Uzma Jalaluddin. “Readers are tired of hearing the same stories of oftentimes wealthy middle-class young single girls who are navigating careers and then falling in love with someone unexpected. And that person is always white.”
In her book Ayesha at Last, Jalaluddin spins Pride and Prejudice into a modern romcom set in an Indian Muslim community. The book feels like a light beach read while addressing workplace discrimination, Muslim stereotypes and the complexities of being a second-generation immigrant. “I want to write diverse stories that aren’t just about sad immigrants or follow the trope of a Southeast Asian woman who doesn’t have a lot of power until she embraces a Western outlook on life,” says Jalaluddin. “I also wanted to write a really funny romantic comedy.”
“I want to write diverse stories that aren’t just about sad immigrants or follow the trope of a Southeast Asian woman who doesn’t have a lot of power until she embraces a Western outlook on life.”
With women finally starting to do away with the idea that they can only be one thing—stylish or smart, sexy or maternal, romantic or logical—so follows chick lit. Other woke works breaking through the fold include Painted Hands, the story of a “Muslim bad girl” who encounters “unlikely men” and geopolitical firestorms; Great Bones, about a woman who writes wildly successful greeting cards but “couldn’t find the right girl if you stuffed her into a Subaru full of lesbians”; and The Regulars, which is described as Girls meets Bridget Jones’s Diary and tackles issues of self-esteem, feminism, bisexuality and diversity. There’s also a great cameo by a giant black dildo “the size of a child’s arm” named Morgan Freeman.
It may take years for today’s emerging novelists to turn into established household names with multiple bestsellers. In the meantime, those looking for fun, feminist reads should take heed of the old cliché and not judge a book by its possibly pink cover.

Despite major medical advances in the treatment for HIV/AIDS—with regular daily medication, the virus can be rendered inactive and untransferable—there is still fear and discomfort surrounding contact with someone who has it. In fact, according to a survey conducted by Casey House, only 38% of Canadians said they would be willing to be touched by somebody with HIV because many still believe it can be transmitted that way. “So we said ‘let’s challenge that stigma, because you can’t actually pass HIV from skin to skin’,” says Joanne Simons, CEO of Casey House. That’s the intent of Healing House, a pop-up HIV+ spa that opens its doors for two days, on November 30th and December 1st, which is World AIDS Day.
Fifteen HIV+ Healers will be providing free services: a head, scalp, back and shoulder treatment, an express hand treatment and mini-facials. “It’s really so that we can invite the public in and say ‘are you willing to do this, are you nervous?,” says Simons of the conversations she hopes the event will incite. To prepare, the volunteers received training from the Toronto Blue Jays‘ own registered massage therapist, Melissa Doldron and were shown how to do facials from local beauty brand Province Apothecary. They also learned how to blend the custom oil being used in the treatments—developed by brand founder Julie Clark—as a way to bring the HIV+ Healers in contact with making the product itself. “We taught them how to measure and pour the oil and they did all the labeling,” says Clark.
Though living with HIV/AIDS in 2018 is no longer the almost certain death sentence it was 30 years ago, it’s not without its continued social and emotional stuggles. “A number of our Casey House clients say the stigma of the disease is more painful than the disease itself,” says Simons. Understandably, assembling the team of HIV+ Healers was no easy feat and includes a mix of Casey House clients as well as activists within the HIV community who are already open about their status. “It’s a big ask,” says Simons, as many still keep their illness a secret for fear of being ostracized. But for these 15, it’s a important one worth answering.

It’s been over three decades since The Handmaid’s Tale was published—and likely a little while since you read the CanLit novel in grade 10 English class—but over the past couple of years, the dystopian world that Margaret Atwood created has come to the forefront of popular culture. Whether it’s an Emmy-winning television series, a sexy Halloween costume, Melania Trump’s 2018 White House Christmas decor, or a global march protesting the erosion of women’s rights and freedoms, the Handmaids’ red cloaks and white bonnets have left the pages of Atwood’s novel, and entered the real world.
Which has lead those of us in real world to ask: Mrs. Atwood, our dear national treasure, can we ever expect The Handmaid’s Tale sequel? (AKA, please tell us what the future holds and let us know everything is going to be okay.) Atwood, who celebrated her 79th birthday earlier this month, took to Twitter to confirm the rumours. She announced that the follow up novel, titled The Testaments, will be released in September 2019 and will take place after the events of The Handmaid’s Tale. According to the Big Brother-esque graphic attached, Atwood was inspired by fan questions about Gilead and its “inner workings” and “the world we’ve been living in.”
Yes indeed to those who asked: I’m writing a sequel to The #HandmaidsTale. #TheTestaments is set 15 years after Offred’s final scene and is narrated by three female characters. It will be published in Sept 2019. More details: https://t.co/e1umh5FwpX pic.twitter.com/pePp0zpuif

The Hulu series The Handmaid’s Tale has given us a glimpse at Offred beyond the final chapter in Atwood’s novel, but The Testaments will tell an entirely different story. The upcoming sequel takes place long after the show’s current timeline, set “15 years after Offred’s final scene” in the first book. Here’s hoping the post-Gilead future that Atwood envisions for us is filled with female autonomy!

Women work hard, both on and off the clock. From demanding jobs to packed social calendars, it can be difficult to find time to set aside for yourself. As hard as it can be to say no to after-work drinks or event invites, sometimes you just need to stay in.
Use the dip in temperature as an excuse to cancel plans and focus on self-care instead—and there’s no better place to start than with your skin. Winter is notoriously hard on our bodies, but something as small as a 15-minute sheet mask could replenish the moisture that this season has stripped from the skin. Here are a few reasons you should make time for these hydration powerhouses this winter.
There’s a mask for every skin type
No matter your skin type, there’s a sheet mask soulmate out there for you. The Garnier SkinActive Moisture Bomb sheet masks are some of their best on the market; not only does each mask contain half a bottle of serum, but there are also six formulas for a variety of skin needs.
Choose the lavender anti-fatigue mask for tired skin, the purifying charcoal and algae mask for an unbalanced complexion, the mattifying green tea mask for pore reduction or the hydrating pomegranate mask for an added moisture boost. If you’re feeling stressed or have troubled skin, go for the soothing mask with chamomile. If you’ve been too hard on your skin lately and need a reboot, pick the glow-boosting mask with sakura flower extract. Plus, each of the six formulas are infused with hyaluronic acid—an ingredient known for its ability to retain a large amount of water.
They give you a moment to yourself
Even if your days are packed with meetings and engagements, it’s important to pen yourself into your calendar. Make it a part of your nightly routine to set aside time for a bath and a mask to help yourself unwind. Or, if you’re a morning person, give yourself extra time to mask while enjoying your morning tea or coffee.
Maybe you have a hard time with daily routines or your schedule is so hectic you don’t even know what’s going on tomorrow, let alone next week. If this is the case, pick one day of the week and let that evening be yours to mask and chill. Get your mask, your drink of choice and the latest season of your favourite show ready and let the relaxation begin.
They’re low commitment (and low cost)
To use the Moisture Bomb mask, just apply the white tissue side to a clean face and remove the outer blue film. Find your happy place—whether it’s on the couch or in the bath—and settle in to let it do its work. Sheet masks stay securely on your face, meaning you can do some chores or even a little baking. After 15 minutes, remove the mask and rub any excess serum into your skin.
Most face masks are an affordable way to target specific skin problems, but the Moisture Bomb sheet masks take this affordability to a new level at just $3.99 each—making them a low-risk (and high-reward) purchase. You can pick one up at your local drug store or online.
On trend for a reason, sheet masks pack a punch of moisture and nourishment that makes quick work of improving your skin—and your relationship with yourself. So the next time someone asks what you’re doing on a weekday night, just be honest and say: “Sorry, I have an important date.”

It all started with a microbiology experiment gone wrong at the University of Guelph. Shelved in a beaker, scientists noticed that the contents looked strange and under a microscope, discovered it was glycogen, a form of energy used by all living forms that can fuel cells. (In skin, it helps with the production of elastin, collagen and hyaluronic acid.) This variety, from non-GMO Ontario sweet corn also loved water.
“It will absorb and hold onto it so that’s what give [the scientists] the indication to look at skincare,” says Alison Crumblehulme, founder of Veriphy, the skincare line that now uses it as its active ingredient. Each of the three products—a lactic acid serum, a moisturizer and an eye cream—uses 200 per cent more of the active than what is typically used in a product, says Jessica Kizovki, lead formulator. “It’s not a cheap ingredient, but we really wanted to power pack it,” she says of the phytoglycogen. It also allowed her to forgo using silicones. “By increasing the dosage, I got not only a better effect but also a velvety feel.”

Dumplin’
A Southern feel good beauty pageant flick set is exactly what the winter season called for. Adapted from Julie Murphy’s best-selling book of the same title, Dumplin’ stars Jennifer Aniston as the pageant-obsessed mother of Dolly Parton–obsessed Willowdean, played by Patti Cake$’ breakout Danielle Macdonald. When Willodean stages a protest and enters her mother’s teen pageant, other plus-size contenders follow—to which Willodean respond, “I’m not the Joan of Arc of fat girls.” Here’s hoping Dumplin’ sets Netflix on the road to redemption after the whole Insatiable disaster.

Tidelands: Season 1
Think Twilight meets Revenge — but with mermaids. That’s not how Netflix is describing this Australian Original Series, but it seems to hit the mark. The description they’ve shared is fairly vague: “Tidelands follows Cal McTeer (Charlotte Best), a young woman who returns home to the small fishing village of Orphelin Bay after ten years in juvenile detention. But her hometown is shrouded in mysteries, the greatest of which is the commune of outcasts who live in a hidden pocket of the bay.” And obviously, the entire cast is gorgeous. It sounds like the perfect soapy supernatural drama to binge-watch over the holidays.

I had my hands cupped over my mouth for the duration of this 3-minute trailer. Which means that, as a noted hater of bone-chilling post-apocalyptic films, I probably won’t be watching this. But hey, that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t! The Sandra Bullock-lead thriller mirrors of the sense-driven monster sentiment of John Krasinski’s ‘s A Quiet Place, but instead of having to keep silent, Bullock has to blindfold her small children. Here’s how Netflix describes Birdbox: “When a mysterious force decimates the world’s population, only one thing is certain: if you see it, you take your life.”

As someone with a public history of loving memes, I would argue that one of the greatest articulations of all time is “Name a more iconic duo…I’ll wait.” The phrase first appeared attached to a photo of Kendall and Kylie, then spread to everything from Kanye and Donald Trump, a hammer and sickle, to perhaps less tastefully, the Twin Towers.
Now, the meme exists in accessory form, as Comme des Garçons and Gucci have teamed up to produce a designer tote bag. According to a press release, “Gucci is pleased to announce a partnership with Japanese label Comme des Garçons in a project that sees the Houses meld their design codes in an intriguing and unexpected way.” The bag combines the muted simplicity of Comme des Garçon’s brown paper bag tote with the luxury bat signal of Gucci’s red and green broad stripe.

“The two labels would not seem to be obvious bedfellows, and yet, driven by a desire to explore new creative possibilities, both Gucci’s Creative Director Alessandro Michele and his counterpart at Comme des Garçons, founder Rei Kawakubo, have decided to experiment together,” the statement continued. “The result is an idiosyncratic Made in Japan item that combines codes from the two Houses.”
The bag launched last week at the Dover Street Market Ginza in Japan and will be available internationally in Gucci stores as of December 6th.
