Ovate by Audrey Cantwell

Oh boy. We are getting new stuff in the shops on a daily basis now. Christmas is cool and all, but I think the time right after the Christmas hustle and bustle is the best time of the year cuz all the new clothes we get in are a breath of fresh air. Case in point: Emily and I kinda lost it when we opened up the package we received from Montreal line, Ovate, created by the multi-talented Audrey Cantwell (check out the latest installment of the zine she puts together, Tarantula Sisters, while yer at it). Not only did we receive beautiful skull charm bracelets and the most rad beveled stone necklaces (with inverted crosses etched into them), we received some pretty major sweaters. They are already a big hit among some pretty "in-the-know" people (a.k.a. me & my mom - who decided she was going to steal the sweater I am wearing in this post from me) so you should probably head down to our Dalhousie location AS SOON AS HUMANLY POSSIBLE so you don't miss out.

Here I am casting a spell on you in my black and nude textured net sweater.

Yes, it's a net sweater. But it's 100% cotton so it feels great on. It's kinda like cotton chainmail. $80! 

I should mention this sweater is sheer. It is a mostly black netting with nude-coloured cotton woven throughout, and black ribbed cuffs and neckline. So perfect. I'll probably wear this for the rest of winter over all kinds of tshirts, blouses, bustiers, you name it, and all the way into summer. I know it's weird to say it guys, but I feel like this sweater completes me. Here I'm wearing it over my sheer black Valerie Dumaine Berit blouse, which is now on sale at the Dalhousie location for $125 (regularly $139).

This sweater actually completes me so much, that I wish I could clone myself just so one version of me could always have this sweater on. (I know this sounds like hyperbole, but it's not. This love is real.) (Also as an insurance policy against my mom stealing this from me... If one of me always has it on, it's safer.)

We also received this beaut, the Valhalla Hooded Sweater. 85 bones.

Get thee to our Dalhousie location for more Audrey Cantwell. But quick, supply is limited (for now).

Uhh, oh yeah, because Regine was initiated into the world of GIF making the other day, I thought I'd give it a try too. Letting the sweater work its magic on me.
