CITY SOUNDS
Since being discovered by Solange Knowles at a
background-vocals audition (nbd), Toronto-born
singer-songwriter Eva Tolkin has been steadily
making her mark on the pop world. After touring
with artists like Robyn, Lykke Li and Blood Orange,
she’s ready to take centre stage. Her second EP,
Truthfully, puts her there.
GET THAT KICK
Time to break up with
your local barista.
Nespresso’s new Essenza
Plus will eliminate the
need for your daily a.m.
coffee stop. It features
a very convenient one-
touch order button (which
connects to the brand’s
app on your phone,
allowing you to order
more capsules with a single
click) and a dedicated hot-
water spout for making the
perfect Americano—or
cup of tea, if that’s
more your thing.
($249, nespresso.com)
SWEET ESCAPE
Much like a post-summer escape to
a beachside Mediterranean resort,
Wanted Girl—the new fragrance from
Az zaro—is irresistible. The scent combines
notes of fresh pomegranate with an
exclusive ginger and orange blossom
co-distillation. Sweet notes of dulce de
leche and vanilla tonka bean finish it
off with a sensual touch. “It ’s floral, but
it evolves, which makes it really day to
night,” says New Zealand-born model
Georgia Fowler, who is the face of the
scent. Sprit z lightly and prepare to feel
like you’re back on vacation. ($97, at
drugstores and mass-market retailers)
GREEN PIECE
Sometimes all you need is a little imagination...and good
tailoring. At least that’s the ethos behind Rentrayage.
In an effort to make more-sustainable clothing, founder
Erin Beatty spliced together second-hand and vintage
garments for the label’s first collection this fall. The result?
Quirky and playful designs that feel as modern as they
are sustainable. (From $165, rentrayage.com)
