Fashion sets the gold standard

Time does not tarnish its allure -- it just makes the price climb higher. Gold is on a roll, having soared a breathtaking 400 per cent to almost $1,400 an ounce since 2001. And fashion has caught the gold bug, in clothing, shoes, bags and, naturally, jewellery.

Every so often, a trend comes along that knocks the socks off some followers of fashion — and scares them off everyone else. These are usually the same trends that spur polarized reactions and fuel many a conversation.

Waxing sensitive parts needs expert touch

My favourite Jerry Seinfeld joke goes: "I don’t understand how a woman can take boiling hot wax, pour it on her upper thighs, rip the hair out at the roots and then still be afraid of a spider." If Jerry could only fathom the other places where many women, and a few men, are willing to get waxed he’d probably faint.
