Tis the season of weddings, graduations, garden parties, barbeques and lazy days at the pool. The one piece of clothing that is always just right? I vote dresses all the way! There is something inexplicable about how special you feel as soon as you slip into a dress; not even necessarily a formal one. No, any day and any occasion a dress is the right choice. Here are our thoughts on dresses this season.

Although black and white is a classic staple that will never go wrong, this season the focus is on colour. Jewel tones like sapphire blue, emerald green and ruby red are hot in addition to strong saturated yellows. My personal fav –coral. It flatters every skin type. Check out this fabulous frock by Jacob .

If you prefer something softer, garden prints are everywhere and offer a smaller more feminine option for those days you are feeling so bold. H&M had a wildly popular Garden Collection for spring. Other stores like the reliably trendy Forever 21 also featuring some lovely floral dresses.

Ruffles were a trend that started a few seasons ago but have great staying power. There is something flirty and fun about ruffles. This adorable dress by BCBG has just enough ruffles without creating a strange lampshade effect. We are loving this dress for its second super trend feature: one shoulder.

With the cast of Sex and the City 2 visiting exotic Middle East, we are seeing other 'musts' for this season. Embellishments - from beads to zippers to bedazzles everywhere, jeweled necklines are key. Can't find the exact one for you? Fake it! Pair a simple strapless dress with a necklace like this one and voila!

Last but not least, my long lasting favourite - the maxi dress. They are so comfy and elegant and every woman should own one, or more! You don't have to be over size feet tall to work this look. Make sure the hem just grazes the floor and you'll be the height of fashion. Now that these have become a staying piece, you can get them in all shapes, sizes and even better, something to fit all budgets. Check out this great one!

It's summer! You don't have time to be sweating over clothing choices. Make sure your summer wardrobe is a simple thing. Build a base of great dresses and then use shoes and accessories to change your look. You can't go wrong with a single piece of clothing that can have you dressed and out the door and in the sun in a few seconds flat!

Oh what a night!


The first Sex and the City movie, was insightful, emotional and fashionably fantastic. We were all left wanting more. With the long awaited release of the second film, women everywhere flocked to the theaters to get their fix. Starfish events, put together the perfect soiree for the movie screening complete with a silent auction with great prizes (oh how we all wanted to MAC cosmetics gift box), delicious food by a new restaurant called the Burrito Borracho (doesn't sound stylish but it was truly delish!), great
original designer pieces by Ottawa's own Rachel Sin.
It was apparent that we had all taken extra time to get ready for our evening. Fabulous fashionista's with their hottest looks lined up early to get the best seats for the show. Many were fierce competitors in the 'Best Shoe' contest. The film garnered mixed reviews but there is no debating the fantastical fashion quotient. Even better is that it is rumoured they are already working on a third film. Can't wait! The after-party at the Arc Hotel is always a best bet for a great night out. The crowd came directly from the theater so it was 98% female. A jackpot for any lucky boys who happened to be at the lounge! For us girls it was like a grown up birthday party as we danced the night away. The pretty shoes may have been pretty painful but totally worth it.

We are already looking forward to the next time!
