Research, Demographics, New Markets and Shoe Shopping

Anyone knows me from Shorty Stories (and probably from this site, too), knows that I have rather small feet at size 5. One of my go-to brands when it comes to shoes is Stuart Weitzman.  His shoes are almost always available in size 5, sometimes even smaller.  So when the first Stuart Weitzman boutique opened […]

H&M‘s eighth November designer collaboration will be with Versace.  The annual fall collection, which shoppers line up in droves for (and sometimes camp out the night before – seriously, it’s like lining up for concert tickets), only to get a small piece of the action, will go on sale in Canada and the United States […]

Product Review: L’Oreal – The One Sweep Easy Eye Shadow

This was an interesting looking product. The claims of this one is “…with one sweep, define, color and highlight like a pro” – from the L’Oreal Website.  The unique sponge applicator is designed to pick up the eye shadow and apply it in two steps taking away the need to apply each colour individually with […]

Two Louis Vuitton Boutiques on Bloor? WHAT?

According to a PDF of Toronto’s Yorkville area, it seems that Louis Vuitton is about to set up shop at 150 Bloor Street West, right next to Burberry.  However, its current location on the south side of the street, next to Chanel remains on the form.  Doesn’t this seem strange to you?  Why would there […]

Webitor’s Picks: Summer Dresses for Daytime and Less Formal Wear

It was really difficult to decide on one Webitor’s Pick this week, since summer dresses are a favourite of mine. In this part of the world, the upcoming long weekend (Victoria Day here in Canada and Memorial Day in the US the following week) signals the “unofficial start” of the summer, meaning that we’re heading […]
