it's spring!



And this is exactly how I want to dress.

if only...


... I had $395 lying around, I'd definitely consider spending it on this gorgeous vintage ChloĆ© dress. That neckline! So lovely.

fay andrada





Aren't these new pieces from Fay Andrada beautiful? There's something very unusual about the delicate, geometric shapes that I love. Fay makes all these pieces by hand, and after taking a jewellery-making course last year, I have such admiration for that—it's not easy!

million dollar swim at victoire


Hi friends! I know it's been a while since I've stopped by, but things have been busy. Some news for you, though: you can now buy million dollar swim scarves, hats, and mitts at Victoire, in Ottawa. Doesn't the shop look lovely? If you're in and around Ottawa, definitely stop by and say hello to Katie and Regine, the two wonderful owners.

In other news, I'll be selling jam at Puces Pop the first weekend in March! So Montreallers, mark your calendars.

shop update



So, ye olde Etsy shop has finally been updated with loop scarves, hats, and mittens. If you're feeling like treating yourself to a post-holiday gift, pop on over to have a look. And happy New Year! I'll be back post-January 1 with some exciting announcements and (hopefully) more frequent updates.

houston, we have an etsy shop


Bad jokes aside, yes, you read right! At long last, million dollar swim has an etsy shop. It's woefully empty right now, the result of selling out almost all of my stock at last weekend's lovely smart design mart. But I'm working on getting some new things into the shop just as soon as possible, so stay with me, okay? And in the meantime, feel free to contact me via Etsy (there's a link on the left side of the shop page) if you stopped by my booth at smart design mart and saw something you liked.

So stop by, okay? Friday, Saturday or Sunday from 11 - 6, at 160 St. Viateur E., 2nd floor.
