It's September issue time, friends! I love September issues because they are really just big picture books...I'm not reading them for the articles!
Here is something we don't see everyday in the shop: leather gloves! I love the vintage look of these gloves (but they are not vintage, they are from Aldo).
Leather gloves, $22
This chambray shirt from Anthropologie is perfect! I love the cut, the material is so nice and soft, and the colour is a nice, clear blue.

BCBG Max Azria top; Size S, $24
So this Simons layered top is a boxy, black crop over a built-in white tank.....
Contemporaine top; Size L, $18
...but what makes it special is the back!

How awesome are these suede boots?! They nailed the green so it doesn't look too "Robin Hood". I didn't try these on for you (sorry!), but I'm thinking they wear a bit slouchy which keeps them looking edgy.
El Natutalista purple boots, S8, $85; Green Suede Aldo boots, S8, $48
If this blazer was just lace throughout it would already be unique, but the added chambray structural details make it a real stand-out!

We carry a line of hand-made jewellery that I've mentioned before, Darling Gems, which so far had been precious stones source from Salt Spring Island made into necklaces and earrings with sterling silver, but now we also have a few made of 14K gold! I love how delicate the gold looks, and this opaque stone is a two-toned "jasper" stone.
Darling gold necklace, $40
Bright green and bold flowers could look really vintage and funky, but this JCrew top is silk and has a great feminine and elegant shape:
