Ok ok, I know – it's a bit OTT to post so many photos of my shoes – but I seriously love them. They are currently sitting on my shelf as art – can't bare to put them away in their box... Every time I see them, they make me smile.

My Custom Wildhagen Hat
I was out shopping one day 2 weeks ago when I saw a girl wearing the most charming hat. Usually, when I approach another woman about an article of clothing she's wearing, she'll tell me she bought it in Paris two seasons ago or at an antique market – leaving me with no chance of finding one for myself. Luckily, this particular girl, named Jade, proudly told me that she had made the hat herself and directed me to Wildhagen.
Already familiar with the brand after buying several hats from the Canadian company over the years, I beelined over and ordered a custom "Miniçoise" from Cheri Wildhagen herself. I chose the hat material and grosgrain ribbon and presto, a week and a half later, I picked up a made-to-measure (for my larger than average melon) lovely chapeau! A fun experience that I would recommend to all.

Creepers Acquired
Say what you will – some love 'em some hate 'em. I am firmly in camp number 1 and am thrilled to bits I landed a pair after they had been sold out for the last 3 months.

Today I bought: Coach Classics
I'm not even remotely a fan of new Coach – vintage Coach though, is an entirely different story. Over the last two years, I've bought several of these old beauties in various colours – tan, brown, bone, navy and recently – in red online at Net-A-Porter. They are the exclusive retailer of a reintroduced classics line by the brand. Coach has obviously recognized that there is some equity in the old designs and have relauched with these to get in on the action. For me, they are a timeless choice.

Today I bought: Hoi Bo
I've been eyeing the larger grey version of this same waxed cotton bag for over a year now and today when I saw the khaki colour with gold hardware at Delphic, I didn't hesitate. Handmade in Toronto, in the Distillery District, Hoi Bo is fast becoming a personal favourite.

Alexander Wang Kristen Bag
When I first saw this bag online a while ago – I liked it. Today, when I saw it in person at Jonathan + Olivia, I loved it. Very nice and very necessary. ;-)
