I preface this posting with the skinny mini on what it’s about – Shannon […]
Q&A: The D.O.G. – Dentsu Outdoor Gallery
A release on the Dentsu Outdoor Gallery (D.O.G. from here on out) landed in my urbanebloc email awhile back, and there was something about it that I couldn’t shy my eyes away from. They were inviting, colourful and sharp banners on display that held so much creative promise that I couldn’t help but revisit […]

Q&A with Shawna Robinson from Label
I recently sat down with Shawna Robinson, part owner of Toronto based label, LABEL – you like that don’t you? See the irony label lovers? Label is the name of the line owned by Robinson and her partner Natalie Sydoruk. The idea is that you see no Label. You define the clothes; the clothes don’t […]

My first experience with Blossom Boutique (www.blossomlounge.com) was a rushed visit. But in that fleeting amount of time I knew that I wanted to go back. Lo and behold, on a journey to make a snazzy purchase for THE PEEK (some might say that it was overtly snazzy – nothing short of an explosion […]

The White Tie Affair – Interview with Chris Wallace
The White Tie Affair – I dub them the kings of summer driving music, because it’s so damn adorable to ride around to their tunes. They’ve got a Californian aura about them, yet they raise from Chicago (aka Chi-town). Recognize the name at all? TWTA’s been featured on The Hills, and they’re currently on […]
