I never took hair stylists as among those who like to keep late hours, but the team at Grateful Head is about to prove me wrong. This Thursday (October 30th) in honor of Devil's Night the rock 'n roll duo of Lysa Fine and Stacy Stray at the Dundas West salon will be pulling an all nighter and offering $30 cuts from dusk to dawn.

Oh. And did I mention they'll be dressed as vampires too? Don't bother booking an appointment (cuts will be given on a first come, first served basis), just make sure to wear a high collar and some stinky garlic breath when you go.

L'Oreal Fashion Week's Day 4 was significantly warmer, and I'm not just talking about Thursday's spring-like weather. The second So You Think You Can Dance Canada's (and Mississauga native) Blake McGrath started somersaulting down the runway to Santogold's "Creator", temperatures rose inside the tent as Amsterdam-based urban brand Gsus Sindustries threw a 15-minute party, complete with Traci Melchor, golden bikes, a lot of skin and a good dose of models making out.

And so we come to the end. Friday was the last day of runway shows during L'Oreal Fashion Week's spring/summer 2009 collections. I donned a vintage full teal-fossil-printed Louis Feraud skirt; my trusty silver ballet flats; a gold lion necklace; and a wide-sleeved black shirt, and off I went to see the Melinda-Mae Harlingten, Lucian Matis, Afshin Feiz, and Denis Gagnon shows.

In the world of clever marketing there are few tactics I like more than the pop up store. Sure, they can sometimes seem a bit pointless and might be shuttered by the time word spreads about them, but they're still fun to stumble upon and are a great use of wasted space.

If our list of some of the best places in the city to find a Halloween costume doesn't cut it, there's another option today that will likely yield some good results. From 9-4PM, CAFTCAD is holding its Autumn Movie Wardrobe Sale at the Toronto Film Studios (629 Eastern Ave, at the foot of Pape).

An entire film sound stage will be filled with hundreds of potential Halloween costumes. Local costume designers, stylists and wardrobe rental houses will be offering up racks and racks of wardrobe from past films shot in Toronto as well as fabric and accessories that can be used to create something homemade.

As the runway room was clearing after the Evan & Dean show, I ran into Danielle Meder of Finalfashion. "How did you like it?" she asked. "I'm not a fan, to be completely honest," I replied. "I figured as much from your expression," she laughed. I guess my growing confusion as the collection progressed was evident from the look on my face.
