I was lucky enough to be chosen to shop the Marni at H&M collection the evening before its launch at one of the Toronto stores. I was pleasantly surprised when I got a DM notification on Twitter from the wonderful people at H&M Canada. I was happy as well, since it meant that I wouldn’t […]
I walked into the Yorkdale store expecting disappointment, that it was going to be like last time, where there were NO PETITES AVAILABLE. Turned out I was wrong. Sort of. As noted in the earlier post, there were only three dresses – two dresses inspired by Joan and one by Betty – on the racks. […]
The number one complaint for the last Mad Men Banana Republic Collection collaboration that launched in August 2011 was the lack of petite sizing. This time, however, is a different story. The collection, which has fewer pieces this time (and no shoes), includes petites in pretty much every item (except the cardigan – the Canadian […]
Although it’s been a relatively mild winter this year in Canada, the idea of traveling to a place colder than where you live may seem a bit odd. But a trip to Québec’s capital to experience the best that winter has to offer is definitely worth bundling up for. From the annual Carnaval de Québec […]
On the eve of the line’s launch, Banana Republic held a party celebrating Janie Bryant’s second Mad Men collection at many stores across North America, including Toronto’s Yorkdale location. With 1960s-inspired appetizers from Daniel et Daniel and as well as cocktails, the event also featured Toronto stylist, Tammy Palmer, presenting styling tips for spring, featuring […]
After shutting down for nearly two months due to flooding, Canada’s first Intermix store in Toronto’s Yorkville area has once again opened its doors! Stock is filled spring-ready items in bright, gorgeous colours. In addition, any discounts that were received late last year will be honoured until March 1. Good news for those of us […]
This month’s Petite Fashion Challenge, hosted by Really Petite, is: Stylish for under $100: Put together a professional outfit (excluding shoes and accessories) for under $100. I had some trouble figuring out what to wear for this month’s challenge – I had originally planned to use a dress I bought back in November or December, […]
This has both been reported and refuted over at Urban Toronto and Macrumors. However, if true, it’s a great idea. Stollery’s is old and tired and looking more and more out of place as the Bloor-Yorkville area develops. It might for many, but with new condos being built and trendier stores moving in, it’s time […]
As mentioned in the other post, shoppers were only allowed to purchase three items at the Jason Wu for Target pop-up on Thursday. I took in six pieces to try, including dresses (three), a skirt and two tops and ended up buying one dress and two tops. Two of the dresses I wanted to buy […]
With a mail theme, Torontonians got a preview of what it would be like to have a Target store at the one day only Jason Wu for Target event, held on King and Peter Street yesterday. Some people were at the location as early as 6 am, just so they could have a shot at […]
