ABOUT THIS EXPERT

Vanessa Green (left), lifestyle editor and Renee Sylvestre-Williams (right), Senior Lifestyle editor, tackle the latest issues, from how to reupholster a couch to picking out the perfect pumps, and encourage you to have your say, too.

Renee, a 30-something city dweller, is always on the lookout for shopping deals (current obsession - belts). She is in the process of getting a dog, looking for a condo (preferably on the subway line) and trying to find enough storage space for her shoe collection.

Vanessa "VG" Green currently resides in Toronto's West End and spends her time enjoying fine wines and dive bars. The 20-something aspires to one day become a kind of Tina Fey/Martha Stewart hybrid, but has fears about the supernatural powers such a being would possess. If given the chance, she'd love to make you a steak dinner and unwind while watching old episodes of Felicity.
