It’s Thursday and we’re all about that Throwback… back to 1994 when we broke our deck and kinda gave up on learning to skateboard.

We’re talking Slow Fashion this week, so can we take a moment to give some well deserved respect to our undergarments? As our first layer, these provide the foundation for our outfits, but some panties work harder than others, providing peace of mind and making us feel sexy when we have our periods… Which is...

Hello friends, how was your weekend? We are back with another week of designer spotlights, this week we profile our designers who create Slow Fashion that fits to a T… and nothing goes better with a favourite Tee than a great pair of jeans! We basically live in denim around here, and while we all...

It’s Friday and we’re at the end of our Eco Fashion, Gender Inclusive spotlight, so we are closing out the week with another line coming to us from Vancouver Island: (Ag)+(Au) Clothing! Maybe there’s something about living on an island that makes you consider the environment more…? We love Ag+Au (Silver + Gold) Clothing not...
