Vitamin Daily

Ever wonder what items our editors can't live without? All week long they'll be sharing their favourite things. Today Katherine Holland, our Toronto contributor, shares hers:

Scarlett Empress Lipstick from NARS
The perfect matte shade for fall. And just about the best lipstick I’ve found. For those who like to spend their days sampling the finest burgundy’s. $30 at www.nars.ca

The Breville Line of Housewares
From the Convection Toaster Oven to the Single Cup Brewer, the Breville line totally changed my life. I know that is an absolutely revolting thing to say, but it’s true. Hot single-serving brewed coffee in 10 seconds, and cupcakes straight from the toaster. I wait for no frosting. At Williams Sonoma, www.williams-sonoma.ca

Caroline Neron Jewellery
Okay , maybe I wait for "some" frosting. I’d be willing to wait for a bauble from CN to ship to me from Montreal, let’s say.  Her jewellery is almost as sweet as her voice. A lovely balance of rock and roll meets hippie, and luxury meets practicality.  Could you ask for more from a necklace? Look for her stores arriving in Toronto come January. Currently coveting.

Midnight Recovery Concentrate from Kiehl’s
When I’m out on all-day shoots, I actually find myself daydreaming about the moment before bed when I can put this potion on my face. Packed with essential oils, the smell drifts you off to sleep, and you wake up with an even complexion. Don’t be fooled by the ‘oil’ component, because it wears beautifully under makeup as well. From $34 at www.kiehls.com

Almond Milk Lattes from The Mascot
So you're lactose intolerant, and now SOY is supposed to be bad for you too? No need to bid farewell to lattes, because Toronto coffee joint The Mascot has your back. Delicious almond milk lattes, OMG cupcakes and custom Biltmore hats to lust over while you sip. Go no further than 1267 Queen St. W. —Katherine Holland
