Celebrity spot in Canada - Katherine Heigl rocks leather gloves & leggings!

Actress Katherine Heigl is no stranger to leather, and was recently spotted in Canada wearing a gorgeous pair of my elbow high leather gauntlet gloves and some very flattering my sensual oh-la-la leg gloves.

Leather fashion continues to be alive and well in Canada!

Canadian designer Smythe pairs new fashion with Ines Gloves

The creative genius behind Smythe Inc, Andrea Lenczner and Christie Smythe, have created a beautiful line of contemporary jackets and coats that evoke emotion, inspire nostalgia, and will ultimately form the basis of any wardrobe. Each piece is flawless in its design and uniquely created using textures, colors, and patterns that derive distinctly from traditional menswear designs.


The distinctive and perfectly-tailored fit lent itself to the huge success of the Smythe collection when originally launched in 2004. Since that time, the uniquely Canadian design company has been featured in such renowned publications as Harper’s Bazaar, InStyle magazine, and Teen Vogue.

The Smythe collections are increasingly expansive, with a celebrity following that includes Anne Hathaway and Blake Lively!

The celebrity following of Smythe includes the incredibly talented Blake Lively, star of such films as The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants and is currently featured on the weekly television show Gossip Girl.

This beautiful jacket is very similar in design to the one worn by Blake Lively in the previous photo. A very simple, traditional cut in an elegant color that demonstrates a timeless design. Picture this: a pair of my fashion scoop half gloves in my silver or my haze to offer a subtle complement to an already fabulous design!

This is a jacket that really pops! The firey red color makes this a perfect fall or spring jacket, and a perfect partner to a pair of leather pants, my sensual oh-la-la leg gloves, or a longer leather skirt. Experiment with different fabric types for a knockout outfit!

This pale blue jacket makes a wonderful addition to a professional ensemble, or it can accompany a pair of jeans for a casual stroll. Either way, the uniquely tailored design lends itself to a slimming, sexy fit! In keeping with the traditional design, try pairing this jacket with a simple yet elegant pair of Ines' my short everyday glace gloves!

Get well wishes to a fellow leather lover

One of Canada's premiere rocker chicks and leather lovers, Avril Lavigne, recently tweeted a cryptic message to a Twitter fan, stating that she has been absent from the music scene due to medical issues and is asking her fans for support and prayers. I thought it appropriate to show our support of a fellow Canadian by paying homage to her support of Ines Gloves!

~ Avril is no stranger to leather, and frequently indulges in fingerless leather gloves, such as my glossy fashion fingerless driving gloves, worn during a recent concert.  

 ~ Avril plays peek-a-boo with a pair of my where are my fingers gloves at the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade.  

 ~ Oh, la la, indeed! Only Avril has the unique ability to blend elegance and casual fashion with a pair of my sensual oh-la-la leg gloves, a long t-shirt, and sneakers. 

Thank you, Avril, for lending your support to leather gloves and bringing your unique rocker chic fashion to light. We wish you all the very best and hope to see you on stage very soon...

Ines' Canadian photo of the week

Yamaha Canada, one of the most popular motorcycle and dirtbike manufacturers in Canada, recently featured gloves very similar to my man special glace gloves in an ad. Gone are the days of bulky motorcycle gloves... now, you can wear leather gloves to protect your hands, while still looking very elegant!

Ines Gloves goes Western!

For this post, we travel to the streets of Calgary, Alberta, Canada, where cowboys and cowgirls indulge in cowboy hats, denim jeans, and cowboy boots. Little did we know that Ines Gloves would fall in with this mix!

It seems as though my sensual almost elbow high gloves fit in with fringe, suede, and paisley... not such a bad thing! It just goes to show just how versatile Ines Gloves can be!

Long leather gloves hit Canadian runways!!!

A black, bolero-style cape, a shocking red dress, and a pair of my sensual past elbow gloves are all the ingredients required to create an ensemble that is red-carpet ready! Ines' long leather gloves have been welcomed several times onto Canadian runways, and the look above is no exception.

Winter beauty on a sunny day!

Winter may have come to Ontario, but leather beauty still has its place on a sunny afternoon! My sensual almost elbow high gloves serve a dual purpose: to keep your hands warm while looking great! Winter can have a very drying effect on the skin, but with the help of Ines Gloves, and her fabulous designs, your hands will remain soft and elegant all season long!

Canadian leather fashion - is it truly "made in Canada"?

We love our leather products here in Canada... gloves, handbags, boots, jackets. Unfortunately, so much of the leather we purchase in Canada is actually manufactured outside of the country and brought in under a specific, Canadian label. With Ines Gloves, however, the leather may be purchased elsewhere in Europe, but the gloves are carefully made in Amsterdam.

So, what do you do when you want to purchase a uniquely Canadian-made leather item? Your only option is to find a Canadian designer with a similar philosophy...

Look no further than Montreal-based label M0851! Since 1987, the creative design team of M0851 has sought to create leather handbags, jackets, and accessories that are not only made in our own Canadian backyard, but that combine charm and functionality as well.

Like Ines Gloves, every M0851 item has a unique element of "Je ne sais quoi" added in... whether it is a creative design or simply a natural flaw in the leather used in manufacturing, every M0851 item has a well-known identity.

The criteria for M0851 is straightforward... authenticity, innovation, high quality, and charm.

A simple M0851 leather handbag would match perfectly with a pair of my short every day glace gloves from Ines, in my desert brown. A homegrown handbag deserves a special pair of gloves...

And what is an M0851 leather jacket without a pair of my man fingerless peccary driving gloves?

Enjoy the marriage of Netherlands creativity and homegrown Canadian talent with M0851 and Ines Gloves...

Ines' Canadian photo of the week

Canadian-born model Coco Rocha shows her leather side as she prepares to enter the Christian Dior 2015 spring and summer fashion show in Paris, France. Dressed head to toe in leather, and carrying a clutch very similar to a glossy leather La Clutch Ines, Coco elegantly represents fashion in Canada on the international stage.

My sensual almost elbow high... riding gloves???

Horseback riding is a favourite pastime for many Canadians, whether in the heat of summer or the snow begins to fly...

Elle Canada recently decided to portray my sensual almost elbow high gloves in a new light, featuring high fashion in an unlikely place - the horse stable!

This just goes to show that no matter the location, Ines Gloves enhance elegance each and every time. Do not be fooled by the beauty and luxury of Ines, they serve multiple purposes and can be used in a variety of ways.

Add a touch of elegance to your next horseback ride... only with Ines.
