Holt Renfrew Holiday Bear 2008 The Holiday Bear has been an integral part of the Holt Renfrew family since being introduced in 1999. This endearing and beloved bear has become an important heirloom piece and collector’s item. Each year, great care is taken to create a unique bear and sweater, which stays true to Holt Renfrew’s style of reflecting today’s latest trends. And no one is more ON TREND than dynamic Canadian designers Dean and Dan Caten of DSQUARED2. This year, the 2008 Holt Renfrew Holiday Bear marks its 10th anniversary with a special retrospective. Visit our Toronto – Bloor Street location to see the Holiday Bear retrospective in its entirety. We are proud to link the sale of each bear, which is available for $49, to a very worthwhile cause: The Children’s Wish Foundation. 10% of every Bear sale will benefit the charity!

The easiest way to my heart is through a Hermes Scarf

I posted about my lust for Hermes scarves way, way back in 2006 and I’ve decided to revisit that. The Fall Winter 2008 – 2009 collection is influenced by India and there are lot of elephant motives everywhere. My Mom would be dying, she loves elephants. I’ve reposted the history of the Hermes scarf and some facts. It takes 2 years and 250 silk cocoons to make a 90 centimeter square scarf. The details are behind the cut if you are interested.

i want: Harlequin Feltworks Scarf

Interesting treatment on the wool scarf. Jenne Giles of Harlequin Feltworks combines wool and silk to make felt that she uses to create these sculptural scarfs. This would be a great addition to a collarless coat in the winter. You can purchase these scarves online at Jenne’s Etsy shop, Radici.co.uk and The Artful Home. via Notcouture.com images: radici.co.uk and artfulhome.com
