Fashionable finds

Where can you find the latest in designer fashions at a discounted price? New York, Toronto, Paris, London, etc. the list can go on however I'm sure you didn't guess St. John's, Newfoundland? Yes my friends, for the latest fashion trends from Karl Lagerfeld to French Connection there's something for everyone at August & Lotta. Situated on the lovely store front-lined street called Water Street you'll find some amazing stores. Other stores worth mentioning is the newest vintage shop in St. John's, Model Citizens (just off of Water St). There you'll find vintage pieces in clean & near perfect condition. A few redesigned pieces and one-of-a-kind jewellery made by Canadian designers. Another honorable mention is Johnny Ruth, which caters to women of all sizes (sizes 4-16 and soon up to size 24) and a mens section too. They carry a wide variety of fashion & accessories from Canadian designers. And you'll be sure to find the perfect gift from their selection of funky bags made from recycled materials as well as one-of-a-kind jewellery. Lastly, one of my new found favourite skincare stores is TVAL, "where life is too short to use bad soap". I'll be following this post with a review of some of their in-house skincare products, which are fabulous! They've also recently opened a Toronto location which I'm hoping to drop by this weekend.

Not only was St. John's a refreshing stop for the latest in fashion, but I wasn't the only fashionista in town, Jeanne Beker the host & segment producer of Fashion Television walked right by me. Oh! I should've said "hi" but I was so surprised to see her that I was speechless.
