Storm Reid Is My Stay-Home Style Crush, and My Closet Knows I’m Taking Notes
June 05, 2020 at 06:54PM I can’t be the only one who has watched Storm Reid noshing on her toast in a blue floral Aritzia top, jamming out to “If It Isn’t Love” by New Edition 1,427 times. Someone else is with me, right?! The 16-year-old Euphoria actress, activist, and “fashionista,” as she calls herself, currently has one million followers on Instagram, and I am one of those true fans – dedicated to watching every Instagram Story she posts and tuning in to see which outfit she’ll wear next. “I’m an athlete, and nothing motivates me more than a cute spandex set, because at the end of the day, I’m a fashion person too. Me and Storm, we’re like two peas in a pod.” It’s not just because she’s beautiful, relatable, focused on spreading light and positive energy, and willing to cherish the good in the world (like her relationship with her mom, who she dresses up with frequently), it’s because I sit here like a cheese ball with a big toothy grin on my face replaying her content over and over again. Somehow, she’s been getting me through this lockdown and these last few weeks of disappointing world events. That being said, I’m looking at her today with a fashion lens, because her wardrobe is exactly what I want to be wearing. Storm rotates from her workout outfits, many of which are courtesy of Outdoor Voices, to her beautiful tops and printed dresses that are striking, yet comfortable. Her

Self-Isolation Diary: A Day in the Life of Meghan Yuri Young
June 05, 2020 at 05:09PM We’re officially in Month 4 of self-isolation with an uncertain road ahead but for some much-needed inspiration, FASHION is reaching out to some of our favourite Canadians to get a peek into how they’re living their lives in lockdown (remember: #StayHomeSaveLives). Each week, keep an eye out for new self-isolation diaries from actors, designers, influencers and artists who are riding this uncertain time out with us. Meghan Yuri Young, Breakfast Television Toronto correspondent and mental health advocate Not to make light of the struggle that everyone in the world is facing due to coronavirus, but, to be completely transparent, one of the first thoughts that crossed my mind as I began to self-isolate was that the universe was testing me. Because I had done this before. But that time it was by choice. Four years ago I started down a path to get back to myself. Or maybe it’s more accurate to say: to learn about myself. I had recently separated from my partner of 12 years and felt at once liberated and lost. So much so that I deluded myself into believing I knew where I was going. It took me two years to realize I walked like a child, distracted by anything that caught my eye. Over the next two years, I began to take more time for myself, ask myself harder questions, have deeper conversations and explore the “whys” of my particular world. I stopped walking and I cocooned. Then I read
