With several mammoth designer collaborations already under its belt (Stella McCartney and Jeremy Scott, anyone?), adidas has teamed up with Diesel for a second venture. This time around they’re doing what adidas does best: stylish sneakers, with that signature Diesel sex appeal.

You’ll definitely want to be first in line for these limited editions – only 10,000 pairs were produced worldwide. Available starting at 10:00 a.m. on Thursday, January 27 at Diesel stores in Montreal (2114 rue de la Montagne, 514-845-4335) and Toronto (92 Yorkville Ave., 416-968-3335), impossible is nothing when it comes to scoring this summer’s coolest kicks.

Fashion News – Katy Perry for Thomas Sabo

KaryPerryThomasSabo

Alongside her infectious pop songs, Katy Perry is best known for her unique – and often risky – style. While the saucy songstress has landed herself on quite a few fashion don’t lists over the years, she’s just been announced as the exclusive brand ambassador for Thomas Sabo, a definite do.

You’ll remember our coverage of Thomas Sabo last August when we raved about their fall collection. Turns out Mrs. Russell Brand is a fan too: “I’m excited to make things pop for Thomas Sabo. I’m such a fan of all things cute and collectible. I like the charm club the best because I get to make it my own.”

While we’ve heard unconfirmed rumblings of a Thomas Sabo boutique opening in Toronto, you can visit ThomasSabo.com to find a Canadian retailer near you.

Fashion News!

Andy

One of Canada’s favourite designers, Andy Thê-Anh, has been appointed as chief designer for Quebec-based active wear line Lolë. This is exciting news for the designer and his fans, as his company suffered a couple of set backs in 2010 which eventually led to Thê-Anh having to close shop.

We can’t wait to see what influence the renowned formal wear designer will have on Lolë’s activewear collection, félicitations Andy!
