I want us all to prepare ourselves emotionally, friends, for the fact that I will be taking two weeks off from the blog after today. I'm trying not to let the FOMO get to me (what if the most awesome piece EVER comes through the shop and I miss it?!?!), so let's enjoy this week's finds!
Sometimes I find that ombré tops look like they are just, um, dirty, but this top is so well done that it looks like I took the picture partly in the shade or something!
Enti top; Size M, $22
Who can resist a chunky cowl!
Fossil snood, $26
OK, years ago I went through a fabulous rockabilly phase: long black hair, Betty Page bangs, working on a sleeve etc. (Arg, no photos! Sorry, I think they've fallen into that gaping crack between digital cameras and smart phones). So I always smile whimsically when we get these kinds of dresses in the shop:
Sourpuss dress (NWT); Size S, $38. Necklace, $30
And, yes, this great sailor dress has pockets!
Sailor collar
The tags are still on this one, so I can tell you it came from funky, Calgary independent shop Blame Betty (great name!), which is locally-owned by Kati. Check them out next time you are down in Calgary!
So you know how I have very particular wallet needs? (Must be large enough to fit all my cards and all the cards of everyone in my family, and it's kept in a secret safe in my basement protected by tamed zombies). This Fossil wallet is perfect! I love the colourful, yet grown-up, pattern....
Fossil wallet, $40
...and look at all the room inside!
Interior Fossil wallet
Plus the signature Fossil key:
How adorable are these jeans?! And, hey, on top of fairly detailed environmental-protection practices on their production line, AG also has a very rigorous anti-human trafficking/anti-slavery protocol in place. Always good to shine a light!
AG jeans; Size 26, $36
You know, I'm going ahead with the slow-clap and approving head-nod to these great suede and leather Puma boots:
Puma boots; S6, $62
My favourite part of this elegant top is.....
Deletta top; Size S, $32
...the feather trim!!
Feathers! (Not actually real feathers, though, so go ahead and wash it!)
Coach party! (The tote is gold!)
Coach tote, $62; Coach clutch, $42
Lovely silk top (see that adorable pocket on the front?):
Gemma top; Size S, $22
This is no ordinary tablet sleeve! I love the colours, and the pebbled leather is super buttery and soft!
Gap pouch, $30
Although this wool sweater does look like a vintage granny sweater, it's actually from Anthropologie...
Liefsdottir sweater; Size XS, $26
...and here's its hilarious tag:
Dry cleaning is actually NOT good for geese!
The snow looked pretty out, so I tried to take a geometrical artsy shot of these boots. Can you sense through this picture my fear of dropping my phone into the sewer grate?! Eeek!
Franco Sarto booties; S9, $40
There will be no blog for the next two weeks, friends. I'm going out of town (I'm going on a yarn crawl! Yes, it's exactly what it sounds like). We are just taking carry-on luggage on the plane...which completely confounds me! I am a very old vampire and my skin care arsenal ALONE will fill the whole carry-on luggage! I'll be back with the blog February 1, and meanwhile Red Pony is open while I'm away, so come down and check out the best things ever while I'm gone!
