Scarfalicious at Club Monaco
The weather is erratic in Canada to say the least, but the one thing every Canuck girl and boy knows well is the importance of two things in the cool-season: Layering clothes and Scarves! Well, come to think of it, I guess it’s really one thing, since the addition of a scarf to your outfit certainly counts as layering. Wrap them up around your face for a super-cozy and chic look, or leave ‘em long and loose for a Parisian “I just threw this on” look. Summer or winter, you really can’t go wrong, not to mention the level of polish that a simple scarf can add. One of my favourite tricks to spruce up an old handbag is tie a contrasting colour scarf, tied neatly to the handle. This trick, I must admit, I learned from watching Audrey Hepburn. She was always the epitome of chic, and the scarf would be tied around her handbag just in case she was suddenly invited for a ride in a fabulous convertible car, or needed to go for an afternoon bicycle ride. Sigh. Those were the days. But I digress. The point here, folks, is that this weekend only, Club Monaco stores are offering you $10 off any scarf in the store! Now that is good news. Now, if only we can convince Hermes to put their scarves on sale — and for more than $10 off — we’ll really be on to something. In the meantime, we’ll take the clever little prints and checks from our friends at Club Monaco. And remember, all students get an additional 20% in store with a valid student ID. Now that’s what I call smart!
