queen of hearts - shop crawl

2012-02-08T16:52:00.003-05:00

We are once again participating in the West Queen West, Queen of Hearts Shop Crawl! It takes place this Saturday, February 11th and we'll be open 12pm-7pm (some of the other shops are open earlier, so you could get a head start). Fill your passport and receive 20% off, store-wide for the rest of the month!! Each store will be offering their own deals too, so come out and take on the neighborhood!! Here's all of the details!!

Come and enjoy the 4th Annual Queen of Hearts Shop Crawl. See new and beloved stores, get great deals with your Queen of Hearts fully stamped passport, and have some treats and refreshments along the way! This is an event you don’t want to miss. It’s a dynamic Valentine’s event that will have you falling deeper in love with our neighbourhood, West Queen West, while offering some of the best deals of the year.

Here is how it works:

1. Get a passport from any of the participating stores.

2. On Saturday, February 11th between 11am and 6pm, stroll along West Queen West. Visit the stores you love, and the new ones that you will love, that are listed on the Passport and have the ‘Queen of Hearts’ poster in the window. The stores will welcome you with a fun refreshment + a stamp for your passport.

3. Once the passport is stamped with only 9 of the participating stores, you become eligible for all of deals that are offered from all 35+ participating Queen of Hearts stores until the end of the month (and believe us, they are GOOD deals: half price, 2 for 1, and more).

4. Finally, it’s free, so spread the love!

Pick up your passport at the first store you visit. It’s worth hundreds of dollars in savings and giveaways, and it’s a fun way to spend your Saturday.

skinny sweats

2012-02-02T11:45:00.002-05:00

February tends to be that month where most of us just want to be comfortable! You know what I'm talking about! As soon as you walk in the door at the end of day, the sweats go on. Generally, I believe that sweats should strictly be worn at home. OR on your way to and from the gym/yoga. But, this rule has suddenly changed for me!! We just received some amazing skinny sweats by one of our all time favourites, Adrienne Butikofer!! These babies fit like a dream and are even public worthy!! They are currently available in both Black and Brown ($65 each). After trying these, I'm pretty certain that you will never look at sweats the same way again!! Thank you Ms Butikofer!! xoxo

Collars That Pop

2012-01-31T19:46:00.006-05:00

Every once in awhile, an image stands out from the blogospheric ocean, which I seem to constantly be surfing, and really resonates with that cherished chord reserved for aesthetics. This image from The Sartorialist a few months back has kindled an obsessive passion for collar-style necklaces.

As obsessions tend to go, I began spotting these necklaces everywhere. Examples:

via Artifact

via Style Like U

Well, it just so happens that we got a variety of this style of necklace with our pre-spring jewellery shipment! I like them paired with this collared shirt from Jack.

triple collar in brass or silver, $38

braided rope necklace, $42

collar with chain detail in silver or gold, $32

white stone necklace, $48

2012-01-21T19:47:00.006-05:00

My incredibly talented cousin, Lindsay Chamberlain, owns this amazing salon, which also doubles as an art gallery for local talent!

Fashion Week Fashion Dilemma

2011-10-18T13:45:00.008-04:00

Holy moly, it's Toronto Fashion Week. This is my first time attending an event, so I am feeling nervous/excited and am mainly concerned with what I should wear. Weigh in with your opinions!

Here are some options:

Sergette dress from Bodybag, $198

This one features some intense Lady Gaga-esque shoulders, very fashion.
Or maybe this racy number from Valerie Dumaine with leather shoulder and waist detail?

Anke dress, Valerie Dumaine, $185

Or how about this one from Eve Gravel? A visually entertaining take on a classic cut, am I right?

Broken Bells dress from Eve Gravel, $200

If you are going to anything for Toronto Fashion Week, let me know! Maybe we can have a pre-show jitters-calming glass of wine.

Au Revoir Summer

2011-09-30T17:49:00.011-04:00

It's time to say goodbye to a hot summer spent having picnics in Trinity Bellwoods, sneaking into pools for midnight swims, and bike riding around the city in cut-offs. Sigh.
