Jessica Waks' place is so saucy one expects Mae West to suddenly sashay across the room. Evoking the glitz of Old Hollywood, this Toronto apartment features a peculiar mix of decor that swirls together in one glorious, uplifting burst: old-world paintings, colourful pop art, vintage furniture, shadow boxes containing Jessica's late grandmother's makeup compacts - even taxidermy butterflies. "Our apartment has the look and feel of a bygone era but with modern touches," says Jessica, who shares her digs with two sphynx kittens and one very accommodating fiance, David Goodman.
