GUEST LIST

WENDY KAUR WRITER

The gig Guelph, Ont., native Kaur has the scoop on the fashion illustrators you should know about in “Insta Artists” (p. 28). Social game “Social media is no longer about posting everything and anything. That’s why I love Maison Valentino’s Instagram account; the house really uses the art of restraint. The pictures are so coordinated and have a touch of vintage gloss and glamour.”

LUCIE ROBERT MODEL

The gig Robert, a Quebec City native who grew up idolizing Gisele Bündchen, landed the starring role in this month’s fire-and-ice-themed beauty shoot, “Climate Control” (p. 84). Beauty musts “I just wear CC cream for my day to day, but I love experimenting with makeup—especially a bold lip. I don’t like lipgloss at all, but I like red and purple matte lipsticks.”

CRISTA COBER MODEL

The gig Gracing our cover and fashion editorial (p. 57) this month is Toronto-based Cober. She’s off to a great start this year: “This is my first Canadian magazine cover, and I’m very excited about it!”

Fashion roadblock “I had a super-embarrassing moment during a fashion shoot in Morocco, when I stalled the 1960s Mustang I was driving. It stopped traffic and donkey carts—I totally panicked!”

JEREMY FREED WRITER

The gig Torontonian Freed had long eschewed reality TV before his GF got him hooked on The

Bachelor. Surprisingly, that was how he learned a pretty key lesson about relationships (p. 54).

Good vibes “I’ve never been on a truly bad date...which perhaps means I’m someone’s worst date ever? That’s a scary thought.”

GEORGIA NICOLS ASTROLOGER

The gig Resident astrologer Nicols, who’s based on Bowen Island, B.C., has your year mapped out in this month’s horoscope special (p. 94). When in love “I became interested in horoscopes the minute I became interested in boys! And for the rest of my life, whenever I got involved with a new man, I would madly research his chart.” n
