Approachable Softness

Soft colours can be both feminine and approachable.  This is an easy to wear outfit that requires little effort to put on in the morning, but has huge impact throughout your day.

Relieve the Winter Blues

The end of January, and into February, is one of the best times of the year to shop... here's why:

1. You can buy quality winter staples like boots, gloves, and sweaters at heavily discounted prices, wear them for 3 more months, and feel prepared for next winter.

2. Unwanted holiday gifts need to be returned by January 15th, so you can usually get quality finds in a range of sizes.

3. The stores are quiet so you can shop in peace, and not have to wait in line to try things on.

4. It feels like you're on a treasure hunt to find that absolutely stunning piece that also happens to be on sale.

5. Shopping gets your adrenaline pumping, which relieves the winter blues!

Question submitted by Karma B.: "What about casual boot options to wear with jeans? I'm at such a loss! I end up wearing my emu boots WAY too much."  

Wendy Woulds: "Emus are a great option for dry winter days, but for Canadian winters a water/snow proof option is also a must. Try brands like Sorel, Hunter, Dubarry of Ireland, and Merrell to get that kind of protection and maintain some style. I have been wearing my Frye boots a lot this winter because it's been warm enough - also the more worn Frye boots look the better. You could also go with moccasins to switch up the Emus. I suggest having a few winter boot options - about three - so you can have some fun with your footwear over the long winter season."
