Shopping: First Dr. Martens Store in Canada

24 September, 2010 Nelia

Fall is upon us, and just like many others, I am embarking on a new footwear search. This year I vowed to buy something practical for Toronto winters, something sensible, with a stylish kick. And after visiting Canada’s first standalone Dr. Martens store at 391 Queen St. West, I think my search is over.

The shop’s walls are lined top to bottom with different styles and colors of the iconic grunge-fave shoe, and the whole feel is like being in a candy shop – just take your pick. There are girly shoes – with floral and paisley designs (my fave), the “originals”, the “Made in Britain” pairs, and some not-so-Doc looking Doc Martens. I was also told that most styles available worldwide will be sold at the Toronto store…all neatly lined up under one roof.

I also got to see the Spring 2011 lineup of Docs, which included the below pony hair leopard print styles, which I believe were made in collaboration with Opening Ceremony, some cute pastel ones…even gladiator wedge Docs! It’s pretty safe to say, that if you’re looking for a specific pair of Dr. Martens shoes, the Queen St. store will have them.

Most shoes retail between $100-$200, which is not a high price to pay for a comfy, well-made, classic boot. The company is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year, so make sure to pop by and say “Happy Birthday!”.

Style Fille: Sienna Miller

6 July, 2010 Nelia

Have been on a hunt for a perfect pair of beige suede shorts seemingly forever! And it appears that Sienna Miller snagged the pair that I would’ve loved to have in my own closet. I absolutely adore her simple, neutral-colored outfit, now if only bangs looked as effortlessly cool on me as they do on Sienna. Some girls have all the luck.

Where the Wild Things Are by Opening Ceremony

29 September, 2009 Nelia

I don’t know about you, guys, but I am super excited about the “Where the Wild Things Are” movie! The trailer looks enchanting, and I bet I’d feel like a little girl watching it! What’s more amazing, is that the folks at Opening Ceremony in collaboration with Spike Jonze, created a limited collection that was inspired by the Maurice Sendak’s already classic book. When I first heard about it, I really doubted the wearability of the items, but now that I am able to actually see the pieces, all doubts are gone! Just look at those faux fur jackets! Super cute, super wearable, and definitely in the spirit of the Wild Things!

Chloe Sevigny For Opening Ceremony

31 July, 2009 Nelia

Don’t you just love it? Her outfit is perfection! I am sure Chloe wore that dress on purpose…it’s practically nude! Not bland, but just “blah” enough to keep all of your attention on the shoes! Designed by Chloe herself for Opening Ceremony, they would be perfect summer/fall/spring booties…Can’t you just imagine rocking these with skinny jeans, mini skirts, shorts…so many possibilities!  From studs to multi-buckles to exposed zippers – tough love is a huge trend for fall 2009 and I love it!
