Love Me Boutique
[Here's a treasured local gem known as Love, Me Boutique. If you haven't yet discovered this shop, mosey on down to where you'll find scads of unique gift items made right here in Canada.] By Chara Kingston One of my earliest Christmas shopping memories took place in my elementary school. I think I may have [...]
Welcome to the jungle OR My fear of (becoming one of those) cougars
Today marks the first day back to school for many students. While I’m no longer getting a formal education or sending a mini-me off to do the same, this time of year usually gets me in the mood for one thing (well, besides wanting to lecture people on carpooling)…that’s shopping. I think it’s something ingrained [...]
What not to wear
Dear fashion world, You’ve done some pretty weird things in the past. And I’m not just talking about foot binding, head flattening, rib removal, and all the other acts of self-mutilation that people have done in the name of beauty. Humans have generally had a history of strange but true fashion facts. Hindsight is 20/20 [...]

Well, now she's caught the blogging bug and has started up her own site called Just A Little Rouge. Here she is [...]

A shoe for all seasons
[Welcome to another edition of East Coast Guest Posts. This week while I'm eyeball deep in work, some local bloggers will be talking about what I'm calling The 902 Style Files. I have to admit that I love shoes. While I'm not one of those women whose collection could rival that of Imelda Marcus, I [...]
Bluefly
Let’s be honest. Some of the boutiques in downtown Halifax (as in other cities) are intimidating. Online shops have been appealing to me lately because a) I don’t have a lot of free time and b) I want to look at my options on my own time without someone shadowing my every move. An added [...]
Soldes d’hiver 2009
In what seems like another life, I used to be quite the fashionista. During my early years of university I worked at a variety of retail clothing stores, from Le Chateau to Club Monaco to the Gap and finally Boutique Jacob. Because of my flare for style back then, I even got a gig as [...]
