Recently there has been lots of talk at the shop regarding the green fashion movement. After a quick inventory we realized that most of our designers fall under some sort of eco-criteria. For some it’s the fabrics or the process and for others it’s simply by sourcing locally and producing in Canada. So with a stroke of incredibly good timing one of our favorite stylists popped in looking for pieces to feature in an upcoming Marilyn Denis Show feature on green fashion.

Check out the outfit second to the left. The Chartreuse Biker jacket by Stacey Zhang is matched with a tank by The Paddock (a collection by Carrie Hayes exclusive to Shopgirls!)  They don’t talk about the accessories too much in the segment but note the orange and grey necklace by Ashen Drift made from upcycled tshirts, the bag by Anna Zigowski, the silver necklace by Norwegian Wood, and the blue crochet earrings by This Ilk.

So click the photo to watch the segment & then come in and try it all on!!

LXTV‘s 1st Look has done a city guide series of Toronto and Canada. They chose to profile Shopgirls in their  “Discover Shopping in Toronto” segment and we are so thrilled! Host Bessie came in for a Shopgirls makeover so we decked her out in Canadian fashion head-to-toe.

The episode aired on NBC after Saturday Night Live. How cool is that? Check out the video here.
