Matinique the manifique!

Tuesday, November 30th, 2010

When it comes to getting dressed up for the holidays, it’s assumed to be all about the ladies. But don’t forget Gents, they’re getting all dressed up for you fellas. This season return the gesture and dress to impress in Mantinique.

The label which specializes in dress shirts and fine-knit lambswool sweaters has just sent us a new shipment for the holiday season.  Mantinique’s neutrally, patterned dress shirts are great under a suit or with a pair of dark jeans, and are functional no matter what season it is.

People could not get enough of the Mantinique cardigans we received in the Fall so we received cardigans that are similar styles with different stripe patterns just in time for the Holidays.  These make the perfect gift and would look wonderful in the family holiday portrait.

There are also cozy pull-overs that will surely keep you warm on the December days we have ahead of us.  And unlike the cold winter weather, you will never get tired of wearing these classic sweaters.

So whether you’re gift shopping for a loved one or searching for the perfect holiday outfit, Matinique is your go to label for all things holiday. Stop by Roadtrip to pick out your favourite style because just like the holiday season, they’ll be gone before you know it.

Cute in Kensie

Monday, November 29th, 2010

Its easy to look cute when you are wearing Kensie and we are as stoked as ever with the new shipment we just received. Kensie has combined its flirty girlish vibe with cozy soft fabrics which are perfect for this time of year.  You could be looking for a perfect holiday tank or an oversized sweater, either way Kensie has it all.

The Fondue Tank in cocoa has a great vintage lace detail, which makes this piece easy to dress up but also looks wonderful with jeans and a cardi.  The neutral colour makes this top an easy wear no matter what season it is.  The floral Love Chain Tunic will add a splash of colour to any gloomy winter day.

Kensie loves to keep things cozy with the Moose Tracks Cowl-neck sweater, its super over-sized cowl neck will keep you warm and looking cool.  You’ll find with the unique shape of the neck you will receive compliment after compliment, and this sweater is worthy of all of them.

Add some swagger with what’s new from Kensie

Monday, November 22nd, 2010

We love Kensie and Kensie loves grey.  The label which provides us with everything from everyday basics to great party tops/dresses, is all about grey this season!  You’ll hear no complaints from us as the neutral colour is perfect for this time of year and the pieces we just received from Kensie include tons of cozy sweater and ready-to-wear party tops.

While Kensie loves a neutral colour, they have gone above and beyond to ensure you will not get bored with the shapes and styles of their sweaters and tops.  They’ve provided us with tops including asymmetrical hems and large cowl necks that are definitely stand out pieces.

All of their styles are completely unique but also very wearable, and be worn over and over again.  This fresh new batch of Kensie will be in style for seasons to come.
