Kiss and tell? Never. RSVP and tell on the other hand, that’s a different story. From fashion week to film festivals, we’re checking out some of the biggest events and sharing every up-to-the-minute detail.

IT Lounge IT Items

tiff 2009 canada (Sep.17.09)    


One of our favourite spots to stop by during the festival is the IT Lounge (OK, the connected SKYY Vodka Media Lounge doesn't hurt ).

These guys know cool stuff and this year they've made it even cooler by going beyond its usual lounge charity of choice and having each and every participating brand add a charitable element. From the Paul Haggis-founded Artists for Peace and Justice to Ontario's Camp Oochigeas, celebs got and the brands gave back.

Some of the standouts we'll be keeping on our radar: 

Sweet on Sharpie

We're suckers for stainless steel and new pens that won't bleed through paper but even more for celeb-designed Sharpie Teddy Bears being auctioned off for charity!

Coveting Richart Chocolate

French women might not get fat, but they've gotten these rich ganache chocolates - until now. New to Canada, these gorgeous designed treats did not last long around our office.

Kiehl's Craze

The antioxidant-packed acai line doesn't launch until later this fall (don't worry, we'll keep you in the loop) but is already a staple in our routine.

Please Mum, May I Have Some More?

Sweetmama-approved. Need we say more?

Great Goody

Don't be afraid to backcomb. That's one of the tips we'll take with us (along with more ouchless finds). See more Goody styling goodness on Ashleigh's blog.

Protein Power

Fuel up with (high protein) stuff that will actually keep you full. Chocolate Chip Oat Squares never seemed like such a sensible breakfast.

J. Rox Redux

The high-end designer known for her semi-precious stone pieces  has gotten outdoorsy with this camp-inspired, charitable Ooch Bracelet ($25), available now at finn boutique.

Brooks to the Basics

If we're going to run, why not look good?

Fila Fans

The line is launching outerwear and we can't wait to get our hands on it. Think cute jackets that make us look warm, not like marshmallows.
