Shops at Don Mills has officially become my favorite shopping "mall" in Toronto. At first I was skeptical about the concept and how it would survive in the winter. I have been shopping here year round and I absolutely love it.

I love how much work…More »

This is my favourite Sephora in Toronto. It is so well organized and the sales associates are so friendly. Plus, after walking by stores like Gucci, Prada, Chanel and LV - it feels good to get into a store where I can actually afford something.

Lush is my guilty pleasure. And yes, I have every reason to feel guilty about it. I somehow justify having sparky, fizzy, coloured bath water at $5-$6 a pop.

Some products here give you more mileage - such as the soaps and shampoo bars. These work…More »

I find I am beginning to love Kensington Market more and more. When I first moved to Toronto, I'll admit, I didn't get the hype. It was just a collection of fruit markets and garage-sale items.
