A Perfect Day in Kent Denim

Not long ago, I spent the day following around a pair of jeans so simple yet so well crafted that I wished I were a boy. You see, Kent Denim is a raw denim brand for men created by Noah  Landis . It’s the type of jean that needs no tacky…

Splurge: Rihanna’s Toronto Edun Green Tiered Mini Skirt

Edited by

Rihanna made a concert stop in Toronto wearing a $350 green tiered skirt by Edun:
Splurge: Rihanna’s Toronto Edun Green Tiered Mini Skirt
She wore the silk-chiffon multicolor printed mini with a saucy black cropped corset top and bow heels. Word on the street is that while in T-Dot, Rih Rih caught up with her former flame, Drake. I’m sure he appreciated her outfit.
If you do too, get it plus a few alternatives here:

What do you think of her look?

uh oh, there's a monster in my bed.

Edited by

So as I told you all 10 000 times via blog posts and twitter, I attended the Lady Gaga ‘Monster Ball’ tour last night. And as you can guess, it was freaking fantastic. We first went out for dinner at east Side Mario’s because virtually every restaurant on front Street was filled with World Cup viewers, and some very, very disappointed Netherlands fans (the second we walked into the restaurant, two guys in orange t-shirts came out of the restaurant sobbing). But congratulations to Spain! We headed down to get in line around 7 pm and were literally swarmed by GaGa fans. Some costumes were unrecognizable and much more relative to Madonna’s ‘Material Girl’ than to GaGa (does anyone else recall Gaga having a perm, strands of pearls and a lace glove? Because I don’t!). Some costumes were just plain wrong (shorts that should not have even been classified as shorts; 50 year old women in tight leather ensembles with platform boots taller than I am and blonde wigs that were probably used for their daughters’ Halloween costumes several years ago). However, some efforts proved fruitful! Their was this one girl who was dolled up as one of Gaga’s costumes from telephone with diet coke cans used as hair rollers, fish nets, a studded biker jacket and appropriately high platform boots! I also spotted several people wearing these Jeremy Scott for Linda Farrow sunglasses, which I was very jealous of! Personally, I didn’t dress up, though, I thoroughly enjoyed the people watching!

uh oh, there's a monster in my bed.
uh oh, there's a monster in my bed.

The band Semi-Precious Weapons opened for GaGa. Musically, they were pretty brutal. Though, the lead singer was pretty entertaining and fabulous (he’s also been friends with GaGa since 2006). he writes songs with humorous titles such as, “I Can’t Pay My Rent, But I’m Fucking Gorgeous”. The lead singer even stopped a song to get naked and remove his fish nets and stiletto boots (yes, I just said that) to put on some Wolford floral tights and silver sequined stilettos. Needless to say, he was hilarious. Luckily, they only played for about twenty minutes so their performance ceased before they began to annoy me.

uh oh, there's a monster in my bed.

During the set change, we noticed a flock of people sprint over to the fenced off area where the sound and lights crew were seated. Thinking Gaga was there, we stood up to take a look. After a few minutes of peering, we noticed that it was Elton John! Elton, who played in Hamilton (a city a few minutes from Toronto) last night, came out to support his friend, Lady GaGa! I thought that was super sweet. It also gave the boys who were unwillingly dragged to the show something to remember!

uh oh, there's a monster in my bed.
uh oh, there's a monster in my bed.

During set changes and prior to GaGa’s debut, a set of really artsy and unique videos (starring GaGa, naturally) played on the main screen with instrumentals from “Dance in the Dark” in the background.

uh oh, there's a monster in my bed.

Gaga opened with the song ‘Dance in the Dark’ and closed with ‘Paparazzi’, using ‘Bad Romance’ as an encore. The show effects were incredible, as were the set. She set statues of angels on fire, played a piano built into the hood of a car and a burning piano, went into a virtual “cyclone”, rode an on-set subway for her “Love Game” performance, donned the very controversial nun outfit that she wore in her ‘Alejandro’ video, bathed in a fountain of fake blood and many, many more crazy shenanigans!

(Please note that my friend, Sonia took the majority of these photos! She was closer to GaGa than I was, so the photos I took were pretty brutal!)
