Rooted in everything gastronomically fulfilling and wholesome, Talia Chai is a vivacious Toronto-bred Holistic Nutritionist and Natural Foods Chef. Though don't let her credentials intimidate you: she is the consummate bubbly girl next door (literally—you can find her at The Detox Market a block away from ChickAdvisor headquarters!) With...
So, you've gotten (or are going to get for us procrastinators) all your major presents for the holidays. You know what you're picking up for your parents, significant other and even your siblings. Well, then look at you, you efficient and proactive person, you!
Every year, there is always one day when I snap out of denial and I can officially say to myself: 'ok, it's winter'. The day that happens is the day that I wake up and seemingly overnight, my skin has turned to scales and my hair to something that one might use to light a fire (yup, it's that...
I've got a big girl crush on Marion Cotillard, so anything she does is pretty much acceptable. Even this mismatched, kind of crazy outfit is totally up my...
Do you chicks have a signature scent? I've always wanted to find my signature scent but I've never been able to pinpoint that perfect perfume. Still, I'm on the hunt. Lately, I've been alternating between Lush Sikkim...
This morning, I pressed the snooze button about 5 times. I ran into the shower, put on whatever I could find and left for work. So basically, I am wearing the sweatshirt I wore to bed and the skinny jeans I wore yesterday. Class act, I know.
I've officially sealed off my doors to the outside world and sequestered myself inside for the season.

Because I'm a total homebody, I've been watching a whole lot...
They nice thing about shopping for kids is that they aren't hard to buy for. Get 'em whatever the hottest toy of the moment is, and suddenly you're the best aunt/mom/babysitter/sister/'insertrelationhere' in the world. The problem? I have no clue what the hottest toys are. Are Beanie Babies still a...
Boys are the worst. It always seems to me, that somehow they are the most easy going and yet the most difficult to buy for. Ask my boyfriend, father, brother what they want for Christmas and they'll lazily answer: "Oh, I don't know, anything is fine with...
Crowded stores not your thing? Not our favourite way to shop, either. We'd much rather skip the lines and snag the deals from the comfort of our couches on this Cyber Monday.
One of the world's easiest pick-me-ups is a set of freshly painted nails. With so many colours to choose from, I find myself mesmerized by the rainbow wall of nail polishes at the...
One of my favourite games to play is 'find the most ridiculous item of clothing at the thrift store'. I always gravitate towards some monstrously sequined 80's piece. Usually I wear my sequins with a touch of irony, but that being said, Gwyneth is bringing back some of the 80's shimmer...
