Get ready to visit Portobello West on May 26th/27th and browse styles from 50 different local designers (I’m pretty excited for MAGS Boots).
With warmer weather now upon us, it’s time to have some fun with our jeans.
It’s also time to ditch the car and jump back on the bike. On the lookout for perfect bike accessories? Splurge on an Ora bike bag, a Bent Wood Basket, or an Iva Jean bike rain cape.
I wouldn’t mind wearing these around Vancouver this summer, but how to choose between light grey and peach? West Cordova’s Rowan Sky is currently jam-packed with amazing summer options.
The new Urban Outfitters is now open in Kitsilano (top photo). Lots of gems within.
And speaking of new arrivals, racks from innovative British fashion designer Mary Katrantzou have landed at The Room in Vancouver.
Bonus: heard of Tavi Gevinson? At all of 13 years of age, she was invited as a special guest to New York Fashion Week. Now the little fashion blogger has a pretty great Ted Talk under her belt, too. If you have 8 minutes, check it out. She’s a smart girl.
MEANWHILE, ON THE STREET THIS WEEK…
Nicole from Commercial Drive and Ivan from San Francisco | Minimal, stylish and perfect, side by side.
Ken from Strathcona | He looked slick all together, but his boots were particularly awesome. I love his mix of brown and shades of grey…
Amazing Marie Turnor leather lunch snack bags from One of a Few on Water Street…
Candice from Strathcona | I love how she mixed a really feminine dress with a masculine jacket. Also, the dress colour looks wonderful on her…
The perfect beach sweater from newly opened Brandy Melville on Granville.
Natsuki from Burnaby | I dig her bold scarf and how she was able to pull off mixing two different prints…
Nakia from Yaletown | Nice mixing and matching of neutral tones.
