Skinny Cords

I love cords.  I always have, despite the fact that if you have ANY thighs at all, they make that rubbing noise when you walk… c’est la vie, I say.  Anyhow, Free People has perfected the skinny jean over the past few seasons, offering a few new washes at an incredible price.  Their cords are [...]

“Vegan” Leather

This Free People skirt we just received is described as “vegan” leather.  WTF is that?  I assume they are just trying to find a cooler way to say “faux” or “fake” or “polyurethane” (which is what it is actually made of).  I don’t know… it just seems like calling something “vegan leather” is an oxymoron.  I mean, [...]

I love…

Here are a few things that are making me happy. Giorgio Armani makeup.  I stopped by Holts yesterday to have a look around and I admit that I was feeling a little washed out.  Normally I am so hesitant when the cosmetics people try and help me, but I succumbed to the charm of one [...]

Holly is a dancer, works at Lola & Emily in Westmount, is in love with all things leopard print, and likes booze. Holly Katie is an actress, works at Lola & Emily on St. Laurent, is NOT in love with ANYthing leopard…  and apparently also likes booze.  Holly vs. Katie.  As if this whole actress/dancer, Westmount/St. Laurent and [...]
