Lacoste's t-shirt mash-up with Jonathan Adler
Lacoste’s classic crocodile is getting a bit of a facelift thanks to a partnership with popular American interior designer Jonathan Adler. Three limited-edition polo shirts (including the men’s orange polo, pictured) start lining shelves this month in a variety of colours for both sexes.—Jennifer Patterson
Lacoste's trendy and sleek sneakers
Both on and off the tennis court, Lacoste has nailed the look of a sporty lifestyle. Take note, men’s bulky sneakers are a thing of the past. Au courant: sleek canvas shoes adorned with colourful details (think electric orange and blue soles) and everyone’s favourite green crocodile. Equally eye-catching sunburst-yellow sandals carry women through the summer months.—Jennifer Patterson

1. Bloor Street is fondly recognized by shoppers for its designer labels: Chanel, Hermès and Louis Vuitton among them. Now, Cartier and Gucci boost the glam quotient with their recent renovations. Ensconced back along the mile of mink, Cartier’s dramatic 40-foot bronze exterior is the gateway to this polished palace, which boasts a private viewing room plus separate watch and bridal salons, and showcases a broader selection of jewellery, watches, accessories and fragrances that have made the 162-year-old French company famous. Across the street, a facade of ribbed bronze panels and rose gold mullions welcomes shoppers to Gucci. Inside, polished gold and smoked mirrors nod to the art deco era alongside touches of dark rosewood and marble—a luxurious setting for the Italian brand’s collection of handbags, luggage, footwear and ready-to-wear apparel for men and women.
