New Sephora Opens on Bloor

For those of us who can't stand malls, Sephora is opening its first Toronto street level store at 131 Bloor Street on Thursday, November 1st with an exclusive invitation only event.

Canadian jazz singer, Dione Taylor will be providing light entertainment while guests sip cocktails and chase the servers around to get the last mini poutine.

Makeup artists from Make Up For Ever are going to be on hand to give you that little extra bit of colour - if the booze doesn't get there first. (Bonus points for spotting the spelling mistake on the website tag.)

Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton (LVMH) owns the chain of beauty stores. The company also owns a surprising amount of the world's leading luxury brands including Donna Karan, Fendi, Givenchy, Mark Jacobs, Celine, Emilio Pucci, and of course Louis Vuitton. (Oh, and they also own Make Up Forever.)

I expect the cocktails will also be LVMH brands, perhaps a little Moet & Chandon or some Dom Perignon.

I'm just hoping the gift bags contain a Tag Heuer. (Yes, they own them too.)
