I went back to Nordstrom at the Toronto Eaton Centre this past weekend (so I can get the security tags taken off) and checked out the store in a bit more detail. All in all, it’s a great place to shop – a happy medium between a The Bay (well, a more “typical” store, anyway […]
This was announced earlier this week, but I guess that’s what you have to do when you want to be more relevant. I mean, I haven’t bought anything from Coach in probably a year or more. I don’t dislike the brand, and I admit that I’ve wandered into boutiques just to look. It’s just that […]
This week, Independent Fashion Bloggers asked us to write about fall boots. Though it’s still fairly warm in Toronto – this week’s weather will be in the mid 20s C – projected temperatures over the next couple of weeks will drop down to the mid to high teens. Though not cool enough for boots just […]
Recently, I asked readers on Facebook what they’d like to see more of on this site. Possible answers included the usual fashion, dining and travel…as well as “arts and culture,” which encompasses theatre, classical music, dance and so forth. As many online “style” publications, ones that seem to get the most press (in my world, […]
The store may have been open for at least a couple of weeks, but Stuart Weitzman’s Bloor and Avenue Road location held its official opening party Wednesday evening. Located at the old Ports boutique, the layout of the space is long and narrow, different from the Eaton Centre location, which is more open. Size-wise, it […]
I’m sure many of you know this already – Dolce and Gabbana is coming to Yorkville and taking over the old Louis Vuitton spot. This is, according to Urban Toronto (and subsequently, Retail Insider), will be Canada’s first D&G standalone store and either the fifth or sixth worldwide. Another rumour, which I read about on […]
My husband and I took my parents to a delicious brunch on Mother’s Day at the club where I play tennis and I think we all ate way, way too much (there was just so much food, including poached salmon, tons of salads, a carving station and the most delicious dessert table). I usually […]
The May long weekend is next week for us Canadians and the week after in the US, so it’s officially sandals time! Here are some of our favourites going into the unofficial start of summer: These sandals will go well with most of your wardrobe – especially lower wedges (Banana Republic). I also thought the […]
Bordeaux, burgundy or whatever you want to call it, deep reds are IT for the fall. They’re everywhere, from bags to clothes to shoes and cosmetics. I wore burgundy (and grey) every day for six years when I was at the Bishop Strachan School (BSS), and though I don’t wear them together anymore, burgundy still […]
Anyone knows me from Shorty Stories (and probably from this site, too), knows that I have rather small feet at size 5. One of my go-to brands when it comes to shoes is Stuart Weitzman. His shoes are almost always available in size 5, sometimes even smaller. So when the first Stuart Weitzman boutique opened […]
