Lady Love

It’s not just chic grandmothers that feel incomplete without a hat, pearls and a dash of perfume.

If you’re a modern girl with old-school sensibilities take a peek inside Ewanika (the beloved boutique used to be in Little Italy and just moved to North Annex).

Browse the gorgeous silk, cotton and cashmere dresses and blouses from Trish Ewanika’s fall collection, try on a Lilliput felt cloche (from$170), or douse yourself in CB I Hate Perfume ($85).

The boutique carries some lovely snoods ($345) from Autumn Cashmere (the chicest way to ward off winter chills), beautiful scarves ($85) from local textile designer Virginia Johnson, and strands of pearls (from $300) from Toronto jeweler Maryam Keyhani.

Why wait till we’re 80 to start dressing like a lady?
