January 29 marked the start of the Chinese New Year and this year is the Year of the Snake. Personally, I like snakes (the real ones) having been brought up with them at our family cottage but I do know that many people have a fear of them. I have done a brief dive into the meaning of the year of the snake and like all of the animals represented in the Chinese calendar, there are good attributes and not-so-good ones. I won’t dwell on the not-so-good, but the good ones are quite good. This year is the Wood Snake who is represented by being charming, elegant, and creative – not too shabby! Another cool aspect of the snake is its ability to shed its skin and renew themselves, symbolizing transformation and rebirth. I think it's only fair that all people during the year of the snake should have the ability to shed their skin, so if this is a year you need transformation – go for it!!
For highlights this week I thought I would choose a LOVE theme as Valentine's is only two weeks away. Two jewellery items that emit love, are the Love Tokens by Leah Alexandra and the Loving talisman by Pyrrha. Both are tasteful and elegant – perfect for the Snake in your friend group. Next are the Cashmere toques by Queen and Grace – I LOVE these (and so will your head). Lastly, who doesn’t LOVE a sale!? Our Karyn Chopik Collection is on sale for 25% off – these beautiful pieces won’t last long.
Show yourself some self-love and buy yourself something special! Or send in your partner with a little nudge and a hint about Valentine's Day being just around the corner... We're open:
10 am - 6 pm Sunday - Thursday
10 am - 7 pm Fridays and Saturdays
