If you’re an avid reader of US and In Touch magazine, then you’ve seen young starlets don a Toy Watch on their wrist. I attended an exclusive preview of it’s collection at Opus last week and saw first hand why they’re a hot item. These stylish time tellers not only add a dose of colour and sparkle to your outfit and mix well with bangles for a cool statement look, they make sure you’re on schedule for your next event.

Jenn Heil is a women of many talents. Having won a silver medal in freestyle moguls last week, she’s also designed an exclusive collection for Birks, the official supplier of jewellery to the Vancouver 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games. Fiona Forbes hosted the Birks event, held at its flagship store downtown, that was filled with media, fashion editors, bloggers and PR gals. Traditionally, not my first choice for trendy accessories, I’ve recently changed my mind since seeing Jenn Heil’s sterling silver pieces. I’m heading back this weekend to pick up the bangles and stacked rings. You should too, you’ll be pleasantly surprised. From $95.
