sweater time

It is sweater weather, I have at least 6 cardigans in my closet which are the perfect thing to slip over a cute top or tank to keep the chill away.

With the days becoming shorter and the mornings darker, it is a bit of a adjustment to our mental well being. One way to look at it is a time of renewal of cozy evenings with your favorite book, TV series, or family time.

S;pruce up

Over the weekend some very talented elves came and spruced up the store. Adding some new shelving and display lights, looks so cozy and welcoming.

I can hardly believe the amount of fall items that are arriving daily, and with that here are some pictures!

quick note

I didn't get a chance to take pictures for today's blog, so just a quick note we have gotten in lots of scarves, blazers, hoodies and jackets last week!

Just in time for the cooler weather ahead, today is the last of our lingering summer temps, it is going to change quickly!

I know we do not grow bamboo in sunny Alberta, but this is pretty cool and I would definitely try one, as it both sustainable and affordable.

window shopping

I spent the day checking out what is new at the mall yesterday. Just felt I needed to see what the new fall styles are. What I found in the store windows was a lot of black! but with bright skinny pants, cords, jeans, khakis and plaid shirts. Also the pencil skirt is back, with its friend the long loose skirt.

Hmm now I know what to add to update my fall wardrobe and will be waiting for them to come into reFind!

reFind gets in the coolest clothes, accessories, shoes, boots and jeans. It is like a one stop shop, come in often as items are quick to turnover.

Friday links

Happy Friday, it is rain at last. I know there is no need to be excited about the rain, but the trees are loving it!

Came across this Ted talk awhile ago, and with the start of another school year it gives a very interesting perspective on the school system and maybe this is a  good alternative to consider.
