Maybe your entire closet is a write-off. Maybe you have some good pieces, but no clue how to put them together. Maybe your status-quo style bores you to tears. We can help. First, we’ll assess what you have, what you love and what works for you. Then we’ll rock your wardrobe’s world in one of three ways:

Rebuild – A total closet makeover starting from scratch.
Refresh – We keep what works, updating with fresh, flattering pieces.
Re-mix – We mix new, creative combinations out of what you already own.

Prices and package details coming soon!

Ginch Gab: The Very Best Tank

I've discussed how much I love Freshpair before. Convenient shopping for the very best in underwear, T-Shirts and other "unmentionables".

Shopping for a client, I ordered a bunch of Adam T-shirts and tanks. They arrived yesterday and I tried them on for fit and quality (tough job).

The verdict?

These are the best fitting tanks and T's I've ever come across. They fit perfectly in the shoulder, the cotton is top quality, and the bottom is finished beautifully so you can wear them tucked in or out. Honestly? Perfect.

Shipping costs are reasonable but I did get dinged $40 duty on 13 items (roughly $3 per shirt) so factor that into the cost of your purchase.

More Lower Denim Prices

The folks at RA in Calgary always have great denim. Specifically, RA carries a wide selection of my personal faves - Joe's jeans.

Good news! The US distributors of Joe's have lowered their prices to Canadian buyers, and RA is passing the savings along. Amazing. Joe's jeans at RA are literally $60-80 less than one year ago.

So RA is bringing us the hottest denim AND fair prices. I'm not naming names but some other retailers have not lowered their prices. Shame on them.

Scarves For Everyone

Scarves are a big deal right now and they're everywhere! Was just in Club Monaco and they have a great assortment of silk scarves. Love the one above that can double as a belt.

Or, check out Coach for the CUTEST colors and prints. Buy lots (they're reasonably priced at US$38 each) to spread out the cost of shipping.

Shoe Slave: Clogs

Totally love clogs for summer. I used to clomp around the yard in my Mom's version of today's clogs. Leather and wood - my ten-year-old self dreamed of being grown up enough to wear them.

Luckily, today's clogs are nearly identical - only more comfortable now that they fit me.

Picked these Jill Stuart's up at Gothamcityonline. Soooo comfy and cute.

Thanks Club Members!

A big thank you to everyone who attended the Flirt Alert event! You all went home with some great new clothes!

Loved that everyone stayed, chatted and offered their approvals on the styles being tried on by other guests. So much fun!

James Wyper's studio was the perfect venue - thanks again James for letting us take over you space. Your work was very much admired. For those of you considering an art purchase, get him while you can. His work is much sought after and prices are climbing ever higher.

Thanks again to Vik for capturing some of the action - I'm always to busy to remember to take photos.

Location, Location, Location

Those of you attending tonight's event are in for a treat. Tonight's event location is the studio of Calgary's hottest young artist, James Wyper.

If none of the clothes catch your fancy, which of course they will, you might want to take home a painting.

The location again is:

Suite 402, 319 10th Avenue SW, Calgary, AB
