I hate this time of year. It’s not cold enough to be completely bundled up, but definitely not warm enough to be strutting around in sandals and capris. It’s that in between time again. And yes, I’m still stuck in my ugly tall boots. They’re dirty from the snow (I don’t bother cleaning, since they’re […]
Paris-based Canadian shoe designer, Tanya Heath has launched her interchangeable shoe line, Tanya Heath Paris, in Toronto’s Yorkville area. There are quite a few styles to choose from, ranging from pumps which can go from office-friendly to a fun dinner with friends to a gala with just a change of a heel to ankle boots/booties […]

And as a frequent walker and transit-taker, even during the weekend, a wet walkway, especially when there are snowbanks, can dirty the hems of pants. Thus, for me, anyway, […]
I attended two different store openings yesterday. The first was the Banana Republic store at Yorkdale, which had been undergoing renovations for the past few months. The new store, which is over 13,000 square feet, is designed with a completely new concept, giving shoppers a very different shopping experience. Created with a “central boulevard” lined […]
Cities everywhere are holding shopping crawls. Fashion’s Night Out was a couple of weeks ago in many parts of the world, and in Canada, Shop ‘Til You Drop is happening in three cities over the next few weeks (Toronto is September 21, Montreal on September 22 and Burnaby on October 6). Shopping crawls generally means […]
