8/11/2009 First to Review

Second Suit is in my neighbourhood so I get there often. I really like the way that it's organised mostly by colour and article of clothing. Pants are sorted by size. There's a decent selection of men's items but definitely more for women. They…More »

I've been shopping at Le Chateau for decades, literally. When I lived in Ottawa I'd head to Montreal for shopping weekends and always hit their store. It used to represent decent priced, stylish items that I could enjoy a good party in. I didn't…More »

If you're looking for cool, hip fashions that aren't run-of-the-mill or overpriced then you should check out Hitz Boutique. They used to be on Robson St. and I bought my first pair of Vans (black patent no less) there. Now they're in Gastown so…More »

I think the staff at this store are so absolutely, adorably lovely! I had a funny (to me anyway) incident recently. My son texted me that he 'found a ballin coat that looked like something Trudeau would wear'. I was pretty impressed with his…More »

These boots are made for walking, and that's just what they'll do....

Wow! My experience couldn't have been more different than the other reviewers. Yesterday I headed out in pursuit of new boots for fall. My requirements were; leather, not too…More »

Update - 12/26/2009

Well my hubby bought me the necklace that I coveted without even knowing. Clearly we were meant to be together. : ) When I just showed him my review with the picture he mentioned that he'd ordered it online and it showed up two days later. He was…More »

Recently updated lists from Luisa D.

Elite Events (11) Being elite has its privileges	Top of the food chain baby! (19) You know what's better than being a vegetarian/vegan? Being at the top of the food chain! I'm an conscientious omnivore and these places do meat and seafood right!
Review of the Day (12) Thanks for your votes yelpers! FUC	FTR - First to Review (28) Beat you to it! (not including Elite events and Montreal FTRs)
Bringing Sexy Back (12) This ain't The Gap!	Yelp's 30 Day Challenge (30) I came in late to the game but kept it up once I took the challenge
Hola España (11) Some of the places that I went to on my recent adventures from Barcelona to Madrid	Low expectations (17) One and two star places. Don't expect too much from these places and you won't be disappointed.
A quick trip to the store! (8) These are the places I go to in Kits when I need a few things for dinner.	A fun way to 'long lunch' on a Friday (3) 1) Tell the boss you're not coming back after lunch! 2) Go to Society for some of their stick-to-your-Ribs! Well they're not called that but the ribs are good. Get fries too. Drink wine. 3) Go across the road to Rodneys. Get a Caesar (comes with big prawn). Order some oysters if you need more food by now. 4) Take a walk, just a few blocks but enough to help pace yourself. Go to The Refinery. Order Earl Grey Martini. Could be a good time for some cheese and charcuterie. ; )
