Fashion designer Lesley Hampton and Hudson’s Bay collab on beauty advent calendar Photography courtesy of Hudson’s Bay Filled with over 30 full- and travel-size beauty goodies from brands such as YSL, MAC, Nars and L’Occitane, this year’s holiday beauty calendar from Hudson’s Bay will not disappoint. To take it to the next level, the store partnered with Lesley Hampton to create the reusable calendar in the Canadian designer’s signature palette, along with design elements that reflect her Anishinaabe indigeneity, such as the Ojibwe expression Mino Bimaadiziwin , which translates to ‘the good life.’ With the sale of each calendar, 10 per cent of net proceeds will go to Hudson’s Bay Foundation’s charitable partner Indspire , an Indigenous organization which Hampton is especially enthusiastic about supporting as one of the organization’s past award recipients.

The pandemic has been tough — I understand that this is not a hot take. Heightened anxieties, isolation and very real tragedies have made the last 18 months especially bleak. Turning away from all of that to instead appreciate and radiate beauty is a tremendously difficult feat, but it is exactly what Connie Fleming has accomplished with her latest project, an artwork exhibition titled Ink . Artwork by Connie Fleming While she is most well known for her work on the runway as a model in the ‘90s and early 2000s, Connie began drawing at a young age, “Being a trans kid was super hard, it was violent both verbally and physically. But drawing was something I was rewarded for and it gave me hope for the future,” she explained. The exhibition is featured at Never Apart’s art gallery in Montreal and will be on display until December 18. Those unable to travel to Montreal can tour the gallery virtually on Never Apart’s website. Never Apart is a non-profit organization that aims to educat...

Supermodel extraordinaire Gigi Hadid and her boy band boyfriend Zayn have split once again after a supposed Hadid-Malik family argument sure to send fan pages of the world spiralling. TMZ first broke the news of the argument on October 28. Unnamed sources told the tabloid that Zayn Malik had allegedly struck Hadid matriarch and former Real Housewives star Yolanda Hadid last week, and that the mom of symmetrically-faced trio Gigi, Bella and Anwar was thinking of filing a police report. Later that day, Zayn posted your standard-issue celeb notes app screenshot to Twitter, writing: “As you all know I am a private person and I very much want to create a safe and private space for my daughter to grow up in. A place where private family matters aren’t thrown on the world stage for all to poke and pick apart. In an effort to protect that space for her I agreed to not contest claims arising from an argument I had with a family member of my partner’s who entered our home while my partner ...

So, everyone is obsessed with Travis Barker and Kourtney Kardashian right now (we get it) — but can we just take a moment to appreciate the internet’s new favourite couple, Zoë Kravitz and Channing Tatum? The actors were spotted in NYC earlier this week sporting complementary cozy fits and confirming their relationship status with some loved-up PDA (hand holding, arm around the shoulder — you know, the works).   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Elder Ordonez (@elderordonez1) Kravitz, the queen of effortless style , opted for a cream turtleneck and on-trend wide-leg blue jeans paired with The Row’s wool ‘Belona Coat’ and coveted ‘Zipped Boot 1’ black leather ankle boots. Tatum’s casually cool cream hoodie, black chinos and simple white slip-on shoes were the perfect match for Kravitz’s minimal mood. It seems these two have cracked the code to street style coordination, wouldn’t you say? For your viewing pleasure, we pre...

While most of us were watching Girls and gushing over Kate Middleton’s first baby, Angel Chen was mapping out her destiny. At only 17, she uprooted her life in Shenzhen, China, to study fashion at London’s prestigious Central Saint Martins College. Inspired by John Galliano’s emotive work that spans romance, history and modernity, Chen set out to make a visual impact on the world. After her graduate collection “Les Noces” won the praise of the school faculty, she went on to intern with big fashion names like Vera Wang and Marchesa, launch her own studio in Shanghai and, now, become the first-ever guest designer with Canada Goose. Smashing gender norms and infusing her work with inspiration from her Chinese culture, Chen is adamant that the Angel Chen woman isn’t gentle, shy, and elegant. She’s brave, cool, independent and expressive, “like a contemporary version of Mulan,” Chen says. Just like the designer, Angel Chen’s Fall 2021 collection for Canada Goose is adaptable and versatil...
