Therapie for Mother's Day!

"It's not easy being a mother. If it were easy, fathers would do it."
~The Golden Girls

We all know that the Mothers in our lives deserve far more than just one day in their honour.  Make it count this Sunday and shower that incredible person we all so love with gifts they'll love!

Present your mother the whole world in a small box!  Christian LaCroix's Six Continents Boxed Notebook Set is simply exquisite.  With six beautiful, hardbound books, LaCroix fascination with world fashion and culture comes to life in a colourful collage - Asia, Europa, America, Oceana, Africa and Antarctica.  This is your own Christian LaCroix fashion show across the maps of the world in a slipcase.  A truly worthy gift!

 

   Voluspa Maison Blanc Ceramic Candles are as beautiful to look at as they are to smell.  Pink Citron, Gardenia Colonia and Elysian Garden are my favourite Spring scents and fabulously feminine. 

Wide-brimmed, sun hats are perfect for the Spring and Summer.

Chambray Floppy Hat is a light and cool cotton/linen hat.

Adjustable Ribbon Crusher is just as it's name suggests - crushable, packable and adjustable.  The perfect hat for hot, sunny adventures.

Ribbon Crusher with Bow is also crushable and packable.  Very light and guaranteed to keep sun out.

Anna Floppy Hat is adjustable, practical and chic!

 Traditional but chic florals:

Paperbraid Cloche Hat is one of my favourite hat shapes. 

Women's Paper Fedora - Gotta love a masculine fedora with a feminine floral touch.

Freedom Liberty UK Cotton Pouch is perfectly royal.

  Keeping to the florals theme, this floral wristlet can be dressed up or down and most importantly, can hold a suprising amount of 'necessities.' 

Holiday Homestretch

I can't believe we have one remaining weekend before Christmas!  During this manic time, I always hope to be able to step back and enjoy the magic of the season and indulge myself in all the childhood nostalgia that Christmas brings.  We have another 10 days to sing along to our favourite carols; to feel entitled to gorge on copious amounts of sugar with abandon; to find crazy downpours of snow in the city enchanting; to have pictures taken in front of large trees, and most importantly, to GIVE.  It's cheesy and oh yeah, I love it!

 

Enduring the first snowstorms of the Winter, NYC has been freezing!  We're still better off than other parts of the country.  We know how to make warm and cosy look cute!

Let's Hear It For The Boys!

Temperatures have dropped again in NYC this week, and I think this time it's for real! Naturally, my focus these days is on fabulous cold-weather accessories.  This time though, I am excited to feature my favourite picks for the guys. Even though most of the accessories I favour tend to be for, well, me, I appreciate a well-accessorized man more than anyone!  So, here are a couple of things for the dudes out there!

 Basket-weave Grey Driver and our Bi-Coloured Neck Ring - this new silhouette for scarves is also known as the eternity scarf and has to be my favourite! 

Top Row: Men's Stretch Fleece Touch Gloves and the Belted Touch Gloves are my favourite gloves for men!  With the special 'Touch' fabric, they keep your hands warm and allow you to type and text away on your favourite touch screen phones, iPads and other devices!

Bottom Row: Distressed Leather Gloves are for the biker in you.  Made of sheepskin, these gloves have a great grip, are extremely warm and very masculine!  Whereas the Pop-Top Gloves are for those who want to have their cake and eat it too.  If you can't decide if you want a full glove or go fingerless, these are for you.  Also great for easily accessing touch screen devices without having to pull your whole glove off.

Stubby Fedora and the Driver have to be my favourite shapes for men.  Classic and stylish!

Cold Comfort

The temperature is dropping but not so much so that you have to cover your cute self up in a shapeless, puffy duvet with sleeves and a zipper yet. It's the cozy season and the perfect time to wrap yourself up in comforting knits.  Let's get warm and woolly!

Fall on the Wild Side

Bring out your inner-rocker/biker this Fall with leather, studs and lots of zippers!  Fall has to be the most exciting season for the things I love most - Accessories, and they are making their wild appearance at Thérapie!  Garnet, Plum, Cobalt Blue, Cherry, Slate and Green Apple are my favourite of the representing hues this season.  Personally, ready-to-wear has always taken a back seat to a fabulous bag, scarf and jewelry, and the more intricate and embellished the design, the better!
