Machete vous vous souvenez? Je vous en avais parlé il y a quelques temps de cela, en vous présentant Avril, une créatrice de bijoux made in Montreal. Au moment de mon article, Avril-Maud mettait en avant une collection à mi chemin entre le monde enfantin (avec du "recyclage" de jouets adaptés en bijoux) et un univers un peu plus femme.

Hier matin, les filles de Maillagogo accueillaient les médias lors d'un petit déjeuner afin de présenter leur nouvelle collection, et de fêter leur 10ème anniversaire.

We were tired of seeing the same jewellery in stores over and over again. And so, we decided to import unique and fashionable pieces from a studio in Paris.

Le résultat d’une fusion peut être un désastre ou une réussite extraordinaire. Dans le cas du Mexique et d'Israël, deux cultures extrêmement différentes, le mariage a donné naissance à Galerie Impact.

Have you ever looked for that perfect dress for that special evening, and ended up settling for whatever you found in your usual stops?
Have you ever wished you could, even if only once, snap your fingers and have someone dress you… in good taste?
Have you ever dreamt of walking into a store with no idea of what to wear, and have an angel read your mind and put a spectacular outfit together for you?
If you’ve answered yes to any of these, you’ll love this story:

Many women, including myself, dress according to their mood, which often serves to explain why we can never, during our morning routine, pick one outfit and stick with it. It’s all relative to our state of mind, and we all know that our mind is an ever-changing component of our lives.

So what happens when you’re 20 kilometers from home and you suddenly realize you no longer feel your style du jour?

The April 20^th opening of the new Style Exchange at Le Faubourg (1608 St. Catherine W, corner Guy street) was fun and entertaining. It was actually like walking into a really pleasant dream: pretty clothes and shoes, and all you can eat candy everywhere you turn. Really, is there anything better?

Just a high-heel clad step away from Lola & Emily on Blvd St. Laurent is another clothing mecca that has recently made its way onto my Montreal Favorites List (which grows ever longer each time I step a thick winter-boot encased foot out my door - the heels will come soon, or so I keep telling myself - May? June, maybe?).
