hip hip hooray for preloved!

we got in a few new preloved styles this week! more are still coming!

everyone's favourite, the 'miss ellie', 145. these babies never last long, so hustle your butt over to the shop if you want one!

the gorgeous 'roxanne' dress, 189. it would make a great transition piece from the office to your super cute date.

the 'tess' dress, 145. though in my head i call it the tessa dress, cause i know my pal tessa would look oh-so-cute in this one.

the super warm 'carly' sweater, 154. i love the woven look!

the 'barbara' sweater, 160. a cozy over-sized sweater that looks super hot over leggings, and you'll be so comfy!

the classic 'mel' sweater, 120. i really nice basic sweater to keep you both warm and stylish.

updates!

hey-o! kristena is back and life is glorious. though jilly-jigs just left for her vaycay, and next week i leave for my vaycay, and then the week after that emilia leaves for her vaycay. so we won't be a united force, again, until september 3rd. but, none of that really matters to you, our dear reader, but what does matter is: fall stock!

allison wonderland just arrived and is currently getting steamed. new lily & jae is slated to arrive tomorrow, new myrtle & pearls on friday and new preloved: any day now.

plus we have a new bag line, called F-Eve, based out of montreal. they're a mix of wool and vinyl, which mean they are totally affordable!

we also have two new jewelry lines. elkencrow is from local designer jessie tempest (okay, she's an edmonton/halifax designer as she spends her semesters at nascad). she has these gorgeous rings which are basically pewter clumps along with pewter clump necklaces and lots of other pretty pieces too. georgina baker is our other newbie at the shop, she based out of vancouver, though originally from new zealand. she takes old trinkets, such as spoons, and turns them into new pieces. i think you'll really love it. we'll hopefully get photos up here shortly.

ONE MORE SLEEP!

our darling kristena has been touring the world (europe, specifically) for 6 long weeks and she returns tomorrow! thank god. we all miss her dearly. today is all about getting ready for her arrival back to nokomis. i want the shop to be in tip-top shape for her (i think i'm scared she's going to go and live in paris or something, i will try and woo her over with clean mirrors and organized jewelry cases).

i also want to surprise her with all of the changes in the basement! and she gets to meet kaitlin, the newbie, too! anyway, if you've missed the lovely kristena too, come in say hi!

meow


just a heads up that all female cats over 1 year are FREE at the edmonton humane society on Saturday July 31st. all kittens and male cats are available for adoption at 20-100% off the adoption fees, you get to spin to win. pictured above is vanna, a 3 year old cat who is looking for her forever home.

what's the normal human to cat ratio? 1:2? is 1:3 pushing it? will i become a crazy cat lady? also, maybe i should just get a little guinea pig for the store. that would be cute, right?
