This just in! Canadian actor Hayden Christensen is adding another creative project to his portfolio: designing menswear! Hayden has designed a Holiday 2013 collection with RW&CO, that which has already received lots of buzz on social media since the announcement this morning. The 20 piece collection – which includes sweaters, coats, pants, knitwear and accessories – has a young, modern look while taking inspiration from Hayden’s time growing up on a farm in Ontario. We can’t get enough of the relaxed, on-trend looks; suspenders, rich colours and patterns, elbow patches, contrasting lapel details… we’ve got a lot of pieces on our radar for holiday gifting, available November 7th! We’re really impressed by Hayden’s design capabilities; as a self-proclaimed appreciator of fashion and design, his passion is evident in the collection. RW&CO worked hand in hand with Hayden, who was fully integrated in every step of the design process – from colour and fabric selection to button detailing, it was a true collaboration encompassing Hayden’s personal style influence and RW&CO’s signature fashion, quality and comfort.
Here’s a preview of Hayden’s designs!

Fall is one of our favourite seasons when it comes to dressing for the office; we trade in our florals and linens for wool, heavier silks and tweeds, and blazers and soft sweaters filter into our wardrobe in rich, deeper tones. Last week we had the pleasure of attending Jones New York’s Fall/Winter 2013 Preview at the Templar Hotel, curated by the talented and uber stylish Susie Sheffman (one of Canada’s top Fashion Directors!) Guests were given an intimate style seminar with Susie, as she highlighted her favourite Jones New York looks for fall and holiday, and shared styling tips on casual and career dressing. The collection features a mix of classically chic and modern pieces; geometric prints, plaids and vibrant jewel tones (think deep reds and plums!) are sprinkled throughout the collection, creating looks that are functional and stylish, moving effortlessly from desk to dinner!
…Stay tuned, Montreal!

Each year NKPR celebrates the holiday season…twice! When the rest of the world is soaking up the sun and enjoying summer fashions, we’re looking at what’s in store for the next holiday collections. What better way to celebrate the holidays than with a poolside party? Media and bloggers joined us last Thursday to preview gifts and gadgets for the holiday season, LA-style! Our guests were given Essie manicures and Tweezerman brow how-tos, all while sipping on bottlegreen cocktails and indulging in PS by Pretty Sweet cupcakes and cookies by the pool. Natasha’s backyard was transformed into a runway show, with models previewing the upcoming holiday collections from RACHEL Rachel Roy, Anne Klein and RW & CO. One thing is for sure: it’s going to be a holiday of glamour! We even got to play DJ with House of Marley; everyone had a great time learning how to scratch, with their own DJ name no less! The music was fun and festive with lots of holiday cheer in the air.
We realize that holidays aren’t always a happy time for everyone, which is why we partnered with Partners for Mental Health to raise awareness by giving our guests ‘mood badges’ to wear as they celebrated holiday in July. We matched each LAXmas guest with a donation to the cause. Whether people felt wired, happy or grumpy, everyone enjoyed the fun approach at supporting such an important cause.
Here are some of our favourite highlights!
