Style savant

Sporting turquoise polka-dot jeans and sky-high wedges, Leandra Medine is walking proof of her highly-popular blog,
The Man Repeller. Her decidedly courageous fashion pairings — think harem pants, jumpsuits and jewelry that "resembles violent weaponry" – is oft embraced by women, but has very little positive affect on the men. Shocking. The good news, however, is that instead of eschewing these trends us girls love and men hate, Medine celebrates them and encourages all of us to flaunt our boyfriend jeans and shoulder pads with aplomb. So it seems fitting that
Holt Renfrew invited the New York-based blogger to Toronto on November 8th to host the launch of their new blog
Holts Muse, which covers the latest in women’s fashion both on the runway and in the streets. Dozens of girls lined up (in leopard print wedges and fedoras, natch) to chat with the sartorial stylist and
ELLECanada.com was on hand to capture some images of the frenzy.
Which guest do you think sports the best "Man Repeller" look of the night?
