The site is messed up for anyone using IE right now. I don’t often check IE because I use Firefox and I forget about the rest of the world. I’m trying to track down the problem and I hope to get it fixed soon. You really should be using Firefox though. LOL. UPDATE: I’ve fixed the problem. Thanks goes out to Scott Wallick, the creator of the plaintxtblog theme I’m using. He helped me to track down the issue. Scott Rocks. w00t!!!!
Hi This is just to let you all know to look for me in Now Magazine this Thursday. Andrew Sardone who writes fashion for Now is featuring 5 Toronto fashion bloggers and I was lucky enough to be one of them. It’s pretty exciting and I can’t wait to see how the pictures turn out. Oh yes friends, there was a real photoshoot and everything. I’m wearing clothing from Juma’s new Movement line.
Remember what I said about this look Love this, perfect. I take back what I said about the stylist intervention. It happened here and it’s still all wrong. WRONG, Sienna, so very wrong. UPDATE: Hi BuzzFeed Readers, thanks for coming by. Please comment on the comparison if you feel like 🙂
The Essential Toolbag by S. Stein I fell in love with this bag which takes on the tool belt and makes it fabulous, such kitsch. I love all the pockets. They are always more of a pain in the ass than anything. I spend so much time looking for my keys or lip balm because of all the pockets. I still love them though, totally makes no sense. The bag is made of industrial strength canvas and has suede pockets. Inspired by the high functionality and natural materials of classic carpenter bags and toolbelts; reinterpreted for the modern industrious woman. Not sold in stores here but available online. via Popgadget: Personal Tech for Women images: ssteindesign.com
The upgrade hasn’t gone as smoothly as I would have liked. You will find the comments are broken. I also have to fix some things with plugins. Sigh. My friends list is pooched for now too. It will be back once I fix the widgets issue. Please email me if you see any issues. UPDATE: All functionality should be working correctly now. What a pain in the ass.
Please be patient as I am upgrading to WordPress 2.1 Hopefully this goes smoothly. UPDATE: Calling this off for now. It needs more planning. UPDATE UPDATE: I was wrong. Site is now WordPress 2.1. I’m fixing my themes now.

You see, I live in Winnipeg, where there a few fun boutiques and big box and mall stores rule. My question for you is regarding Canadian online shoe stores. While there are plenty of ones in the States, I don’t like considering the duty and exchange. I am aware of softmoc.ca here shipping in Canada but would love to know if you have come across any others. Thanks! Dai This post needs and update and here I am to do that. Online shopping is getting better in Canada. There are some new additions for online shoe shopping. Online shopping in Canada isn’t very good most of the time. Things are slowly changing though …
I thought I want – I got had a great boxing day; about 800 people visited the site that day looking for shopping bargains. I knew that the Lululemon warehouse sale would bring people here, but I had no idea how many. Thursday saw about 1100 visitors. My searches were all for lululemon, it has been insane over the last few days. I’ve finally broken the 1000 visitor mark, YAY!. Thanks to all the people who posted comments about their Lululemon experience.
I wrote about wanting this Marc Jacobs cape in the fall. I happened to see a few of them at Holt Renfrew yesterday on sale. It looks like they didn’t sell to well because there were few left over. They even had one in my size, sigh. It was still not cheap enough for me to buy it.
My mission on Boxing Day was to get some cheap Hunter Wellys. Some stores discounted them a little bit like TNT, Over the Rainbow, Aritiza and Capezio. Heel Boy didn’t even put them on sale and they aren’t part of the 2 for 1 sale they are having right now. I almost bought them from Heel Boy until I found out they weren’t part of the sale. I decided to wait it out and I’m glad I did because Over the Rainbow brought out the big guns, 50% off. The last pair in blue were a 38; it was like they were waiting for me. So, if you are looking for Hunter Wellingtons on the cheap, hit up Over the Rainbow. They had a bunch of green ones left and some of another style, The Hunter Lady N. Get them while they last. There is also a lot of other stuff on sale tshirts, tons of denim and sweaters. If anyone is looking for a full length Triple Five Soul jacket they should go very …
