I’m having a lot of fun slowly but surely filling up our new store. Hopefully you have noticed the new items arriving every day. Note the visual summary of the latest additions that will always appear just below the first post on the blog.

Here are my favourites for the week:

• Miz Mooz ” Carlito” ankle boots in apple green: They scream the start of Spring and are a breath of fresh air amongst a sea of black, brown and grey footwear. They’re the most comfortable cowboy boots I’ve ever tried on and I hope to find them under our Christmas tree.
• L.A.M.B. signature flap clutch wallet: I adore Gwen Stefani and for the most part her merchandise rocks. I especially like her handbags and wallets and when this one appeared in signature YLF colours, it felt extra special.
• Nordstrom peacock print scarf: It’s unusual and a good price for the size and quality of this scarf.
• Plus size sequined knit top: Every gal needs a bit of sparkle at this time of year and if dressing up is not your thing, casual bling is the way to go.
• Keen “Bern High” boots: They’re heavenly for your feet, perfect for cold bad weather and super cute too.
• Plus size faux wrap matte jersey dress: This frock is so stunning on I can barely stand it. A timeless look dressed both up and down. And it’s on sale.

Thanks to Christie for pointing out a problem with the star ratings early this week. We have fixed the bug, so please go back and add ratings if you didn’t manage to do so in the beginning. If you already wrote a review, feel free to add another one for that item to register your star rating.

Finally, Thanksgiving weekend has come and gone, but the sales continue. Through 7 December you can get an extra 25% off the Friends and Family sale at macys.com and free shipping when you spend $99 or more (use promo code MACYSFRIEND at checkout). Bloomingdale’s will be offering discounts of between 20% and 40% on more than 1000 items between December 7 and 9.

Happy shopping.
