MIRACLE
WORKER
These dresses are nothing
short of genius—the coloured
panels highlight your best
features while downplaying
the rest. By creating the illusion
of a nipped-in waist and
trimmer hips and thighs, these
garments will have you looking
slimmer—fast.

Bows, beading and other shoe details
used to live front and centre. But
footwear designers have pulled a
switcheroo and are putting the
spotlight on the heel. Fashion
insiders have nicknamed these
exit heels for the eye-catching
effect as the wearer saunters
away. The lust-worthy
options are endless. WHAT A HEEL Jennifer Hudson
With a focus on geometric
shapes and a sleek aesthetic,
we can’t get enough of the new
accessories line Niki & Lola.
The duo behind the collection,
husband-and-wife team Michael
Proteau and Angie Tingas, hand-solder each piece in mixed metals
and semi-precious stones in their
home studio. Our favourites? The
arrow necklace and cube bangle.
