The Classics

July 29, 2011

I love a classic trouser.  Not “trousers” (ie. pleated front man pants) but trouser-style.  Slash side pockets, wider leg and flat front, either in jeans or cotton or whatever fabric, really.  This style was really prominent about 8 years ago… I remember one season looking at our jean selection as it arrived and being like “Hmmm.  [...]

Drogheria Fine

July 27, 2011

What a lovely day I just had.  Spent the morning with Amanda doing some Spring 2012 buying (yup… Spring 2012) for Designers Remix, with Doris and Nial (who we love), hearing about their recent trip to Ibiza.  Did it sound amazing?  Yes.  Did the pictures we saw confirm this?  Yes.  It’s always such a bonus [...]

Anxiously awaiting…

JBrand Fall 2011 skinny jeans in Aubergine.   Yummy colour, classic JBrand fit.  $215.  We are expecting them within the next week or so on St. Laurent. I’d really like to wear these with one of Clu’s Fall 2011 lace trimmed tops… I am a little bit obsessed with the whole Clu Fall 2011 collection, and [...]

Ok… I can barely contain my excitement about going to see Eminem at Osheaga on Friday night.  You may remember this post I did a while ago about how I might break up with my fictional boyfriend, the lead singer of Mumford and Sons for Eminem… anyhow, my guess is, after the show on Friday, Marshall [...]

What does this adorable bunny that looks like it’s clapping have to do with Lola & Emily Spring/Summer collections going to 40% off?  Absolutely NOTHING.  Or does it?  Did the bunny just hear about the sale, and in a fit of excitement, thinking that it might be able to get that Designer’s Remix blouse it has [...]

“Palazzo” Jumpsuits?  I can’t say that I have ever been a HUGE fan of the jumpsuit.  A romper, yes… cute on the right body type.  And Overalls… well, I admit that there was a time in my life when I ( and all my friends) wore baggy jean overalls ALL THE TIME.  In fact, I’m [...]

Photo via Girlcrush We were contacted a couple of weeks ago by Sarah from Girlcrush asking if she could come by and take pics of the store for her blog, and of course we said yes!! Not only because it’s SO nice to hear from someone who likes the store… but also because I can’t [...]

The Daily Polish

July 21, 2011

Another find via LakeJane… I originally started reading Lindsay’s blog Sometimes Icing, which is basically her very funny stories, commentary and musings (what a stupid word…).  Anyhow, I immediately loved her tone.  And then she started another blog called Sometimes Fancy and I have become obsessed (that’s one of those words that I need to spell check [...]

    This necklace by Tom Binns that I just spotted on Net-a-Porter.  It’s $1900… so you know, it’s not something that I would say is “within my budget”… ahahahahaha.  But how AWESOME is it?  It’s hand-painted Swarovski crystals.  I in no way would suggest that I could ever come up with anything quite as [...]

Ahhhhh…

July 20, 2011

I want to be any of these kids.  It’s SO hot in Montreal right now, and being a kid running through a sprinkler is basically my idea of perfection for today.  Seriously, can you think of anything better than the unadultered JOY that a child gets from that first splash of cold (ish) water on a [...]
