Three Marimekko Pop-Ups Have Arrived in Canada

After attending a Marimekko fashion presentation in Paris earlier this year, I now know what it’s like to step into an alternate reality. The legendary Finnish company (founded in 1951) has grown beyond its psychedelic red poppy print and into a lifestyle brand. That’s why every Marimekko fan who attended the presentation—regardless of height, age or colour—moved about in a roomy tunic or an oversized shirt and accessories that emphasized ease and comfort with just a smidge of “Look at me.” Even the Champagne was served in tall, thin bottle-green “flutes” that were practical yet inconspicuous and so chic. The Marimekko world is intoxicating, and now, Simons is giving Canadians a glimpse of the brand with three pop-ups (Square One Shopping Centre in Mississauga, Ont., Place Ste-Foy in Quebec City and CF Rideau Centre in Ottawa) that feature fashion plus Marimekko home furnishings from Winnipeg retailer EQ3 in a dedicated space. The merchandise will be updated monthly to reflect the season and the life we all want to live.

The Marimekko pop-ups are now open and will run through the holidays until January 2019.

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans .

Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
