My "Look Book"

How to style and tie a scarf

My friend MJ came by the store the other day and mentioned how excited she is about her upcoming trip to Paris. Of course we got talkin’ about the fabulous world of Parisian fashion… you know, what’s hot, what’s not, kind of thing.

Us girls are always trying to look “fashion appropriate” when we visit a new city (especially Paris!), so I suggested to MJ one of the best and easiest ways to “assimilate” would be to accessorize with an amazing scarf. MJ felt a little lost about how to properly wear one, which made me think…other girls might have the same questions.

We decided to make a little video… scarf stylin’ 101 if you will. Hope it helps!

If you’re in the Queen West hood drop by and say hello!… thanks

Walk away those winter blues

Having a hard time fighting the winter blues?

I found a great way for me to stay happy and enjoy the winter even without the sun is to go for a long walk.

The other day I did just that and found myself in this beautiful little park. It’s so nice to find little pockets of the city and take the time to explore them. I felt great during and after my walk. It was really inspiring for both body and mind.

Looking forward to spring.

Another fabulous Ziliotto workshop... Make a fun notebook!

2nd Annual Queen of Hearts Shopping Event!

That’s right, its Valentine’s day and what better way to get your “love on” than by hanging out with friends at your favourite Queen West shops.

We’ve put together a fabulous evening of shopping, sales and cocktails! Check the poster below for details or come by the store to pick up a passport for the event.

Did you lose your mittens kittens?

Well our friend M.J. did and she found a new pair at the store. These adorable, warm mitts are made from recycled (or as Sarah the artist puts it upcycled) sweaters.  They come in a variety of colours with beautiful hearts embroidered on the top. I know I love my pair !!!!!
