JNBY ~ New Store in the CORE
The CORE shopping centre downtown has some of my favorite stores and I have to add their latest addition JNBY - Just Naturally Be Yourself, to the list. This is the Chinese retailers first location in Alberta, the store has a contemporary, architectural design aesthetic which is an extension of their brand.
Happy Shopping!

Phaedra's Spring 2014 Must Have's
I left the house today with NO COAT!
Our changing temperatures range from -30 degrees to +5 in a couple days so it is something to celebrate when a Chinook arrives and stays for a week! I may even be able to bust out my cute Christian Louboutins or YSL that have been peering at me longingly from my closet every day…or is it I that am peering longingly at them?
With these warm temps I, again, start to think that spring is just around the corner and therefore so is spring fashion.
Here are my fav items for Spring 2014:
Cotton button up top - in any pattern, colour or shade
Orange lipstick - aim for a red/orange
Leather skirt
Denim jacket
Tribal inspiration - think home furnishings too!
Have a great weekend!
