Coming From The Cold

tfc_cbc_redcanoeI came across this piece at The Drake General Store before dinner at the Drake Roof Top and thought it would be a proper carry-on piece for Jahvon.

I’m big on heritage pieces, especially ones that speak to our rich history here at home and the Red Canoe CBC Collection is a tribute to the imagery of Canada’s oldest existing broadcast company. The broadcaster’s history is thoughtfully woven into the collection’s design elements.

A quick FYI - The Drake General Store opened up a new location across the street from the brand new Thompson Toronto Hotel which features more of a home collection assortment. Their lovingly curated shops (Queen Street, Rosedale and now Bathurst) stock items from around the world, while, at the same time allowing them to support local art buddies and foster homegrown talent.

You can’t ask for a better approach than that.

Take A Trip - Jetsetter

jetsetter If you haven’t heard of Gilt Groupe, your missing out on some great deals from the best designers around the world. The site is for members only and offers items for up to 70% off. Jetsetter a sister site of Gilt offers members (invite only) exclusive deals on the world’s greatest trips from Inner City New York to paradise in Barbados. The properties are hand selected and are simply outstanding. The Standard Hotel in New York was offered and started at $225/night; so if your looking to get away but not rely on expedia to provide you with a ‘4′ star (which never really are) head over to Jetsetter and book.
