Well, at Yorkdale and the Eaton Centre in Toronto, anyway. I am unsure about petite availability in other cities. While the collection is very small (for example, only two washes in the Toothpick jean, perhaps three style of dresses and a handful of Tippi sweaters were among the pieces available).

I’ve been covering the annual White Cashmere in support for breast cancer awareness since 2012 or so. This year was no exception.

Well, not exactly a “farmer’s market” in the sense of Brickworks, but definitely delicious treats and more!
