Travel and Fashion: The Fashion and Textile Musem

I recently got to travel to London, England and while I was there I made sure to go see as many museums as possible. Of particular interest to me was, obviously, anything with vintage fashion. One absolute standout from the trip was the Fashion and Textile Museum.

It’s Time to Put on Your Cape

Capes, they’re worn by royalty and superheroes, but they are also a cool and unique accessory you can wear.

That 70s Look

The 70s, when most people think of the 70s they think of bell bottoms, platform shoes, and disco. But that was just one element of fashion in the 70s. Not every party was a disco party. People still had dinner parties, events, and get togethers requiring a slightly more “traditional” look.

In a Woman’s Boudoir

When I think boudoir I think comfort, sleepwear, lingerie, sexy; what I do not think is sulking.

A 60s Night Out

So you’re going out for the evening, a dinner party, a celebration, 60’s themed get together? Well would you look at that, I have just what you need.

Vintage Dresses and Canadian Music

Award winning Canadian performer Cassie Josephine wore a fab vintage dress from my store to her birthday and album release party. Her new album Only Half Blue released on October sixth.

Hugh Hefner and the Return of Smoking Jackets and Silk Pyjama

When talking about smoking jackets as a fashion statement its impossible to ignore the effect Hugh Hefner, Founder of Playboy and editor and chief of the magazine, has had on the iconic jackets.

Bow Ties are Cool

Bow ties are cool. Now I’m certainly not the first person to say it but whether its Dr. Who floundering in his attempt to convince his companions of this fact or everyone thinking it as they watch James Bond escape yet another trap designed to kill him doesn’t make it any less true. Bow ties are cool.
