Blazers Baby!

Friends- Every Spring Brings Fashion Predicaments...

We are in a North Climate and in order to avoid those brutal spring colds and wear those great spring dresses before August, we need to find interesting ways to accessorize. Every season brings new trends and the one we are drooling over is the blazer. Embracing all blazers, leather, boyfriend, cropped tuxedo blazers. 

Picture this

Think short rock and roll dress, so mini that you can't sit. Grab that Blazer, push up those sleeves and you are night glam goddess. Play with blazers ith satin, pinched waists, cropped tuxedo etc.

Play with men's oversized blazers and skinny jeans as well. What an awesome effortless 

look- and as always, getting that rock and roll night Glam look for less- shop Vintage girls!

Artist Feature-Lusterbunny

I am always looking for interesting Jewelry that is a bit different, funky and- most importantly- handmade. I am always surfing around the interweb for new ideas and one day, I found these perfect babies made by the ubercool Lusterbunny.

These ceramic  pendants feature great designs, cool colors and are a perfect storybook addition to wardrobes. Nice and solid, these pendants feature great storybook style art and glazed on ceramicin spring colors.  Talk about a fun way to accessorize outfits for spring!

Model Behavior

行進, Mars, Marcha, Marsch...

The green month. 

Everyone is anxious to get outside after a cold winter, wanting to stretch their legs and smell the sweet & salty air. 

Everyone knows that moment that you step out of your house, office or school and suddenly the strip tease begins- off go the layers of wool and (even though it is still too cold) there is the dude that insists it is time for his cargo shorts. I try and remember that day, that feeling all year long. Document it in anyway you know how- take a photo, buy a new spring dress (and call it your pre-spring purchase), stay outside all day long, write about the feeling of buttercream sunshine in a journal- whatever you need to do to savour that moment.

Start the Striptease Today and look forward to summer sweetness around the corner.

Valentines Fevah!

Screw Hibernating! February is for Flirting!

I am feeling the Valentines bug today- February doesn't feel so endless, it actually feels like I have a secret crush on it.

Imagine! A crush on February- like in Grade 8 when boys would diss you and then would ask you out? I think that is my relationship with February, a pubescent crush.

I complain about February, I whine about him, I make fun of his lacking of days (28- sheesh, a real man has 31), I dread seeing him on the calendar and worst of all, I show off when he is around by wearing hardy any clothes to spite his coldness.

But then this one day, I get all warm and silly inside and feel like giving him a big smack-erooo. But I stop and think- he isn't that bad, I love his snow days, drinking full pint of Guinness with him, playing endless games of cards with him, eating comfort food and sharing warm snuggles. I also love the way he sprinkles snow down and the way downtown feels when he is around- oh no! I think I am in love with February!

Wednesdays in February

There are days that make me feel washed out and tired and then there are days like today that make my soul smile. Walking to work today, down the big steep hill to duckworth st and looking out over St. John's Harbour with a splintering sun shining down was just what I needed to start this day right. I cannot wait for the summer but I think this kind of winter will do for now.

One of the biggest challenges that I face daily is to keep up my level of excitement about the store and freshness that is needed. I think it has more to do with me rather than the store or the items in it- I would like to think that people are seeing fresh and new merchandise every time they step in the door. SO I am endlessly changing things.  When I feel short on ideas, I take a breather and talk to someone I care about  (generally family) and usually something new pops in. 

Keep it interesting and engaging and throw tastes of yourself throughout- words of wisdom for the day!

Happy 11th of Feb!
