We've received a new shipment of Queen Bee totes, including their new design the Rita Bag. Each tote comes in your choice of red, brown or black in either a sportier mid weight size, or a larger carry all variety. It's a more sophisticated side of Queen Bee, but with all the great structure, utility and style you might expect. And to boot, each tote is made with PVC-free, high quality faux leather that is not only stylish, but durable and waterproof too.

New Dagg and Stacey

New fall apparel is in from Toronto based independent designers Dagg and Stacey!

"Influenced by the pages of a year book, Dagg and Stacey's Fall/Winter 2008 Collection hearkens to the Ivy League colleges of the early 1970's. A modern silhouette is fused with the classic reminders of scholastic style. (daggandstacey.com)"

Pictured above is their adorable structured wool windowpane jumper that's offered in fall colors like dusty blue and tree bark brown.

This beautiful silk cotton blend blouse with soft gathers at the neckline and a subtle detail of screen printed sea creatures along the side would be a perfect combination with a great tweed skirt, or simply with your favorite jeans.

Also in is this lovable wool cardigan in cream with a shawl neck collar and a delightful green button.

One of the great aspects about Dagg and Stacey is not only their great style and attention to detail, but that every piece in their collection is created in Canada under fair trade labor.
