Amazing Dresses from Mandala

Mandala has the perfect dresses for any working gal, but you'd better stop by the store soon, because these great dresses are going fast!


Fun Prints from FBG!

Fresh Baked Goods has some adorable dresses and skirts for spring. Featured below is the popular crossover dress in a fun butterfly print, and the new pleat skirt in a fabulously bold paisley print.




Utility Grade tanks and tops

Utility Grade tanks and tops are perfect with jeans and skirts! The beautiful printed detail is sure to make a great conversation piece while your out and about this spring. Our favourite is the shoe print (feature below in a t-shirt and tank). A girl can never have too many shoes!





Polka Dot skirt from Momiji!

We love this red and white polka dot skirt from Momiji. It's super, duper cute and has a great flounce. We paired it with one of Norma W.'s adorable sweaters and heels for a fun going out look, and you could dress it down with a simple tank and sandals; perfect for a walk through Trinity Bellwoods!

Spring into pastels!

You may have noticed a lot of B&W pieces this year for Spring. Many of us don't want to dress to match a dreary economy! And some of us don't look good in "non-colours" anyways. Look to the Fresh Collective for colourful inspirations this season, starting with accessories!
Shades of baby blues & pastel pinks are no longer just for Easter or baby wear....check out some of Odd Bird's latest accessories for Spring:

Hair pins featuring Blue Gigham Teddy silhouettes, dabs of Ivory "icing" & Pink Tartan Hearts with a tiny bit o'bling!
The Icing ones look yummy enough to eat.....


Looking for delicate & dainty dangly earrings? There's pastel threaders featuring tiny translucent bows & leaves....simply adorable!

Welcome Norma W!

You just HAVE to check out these sweaters. They are super-duper-duper adorable. Each up-cycled vintage sweater features an adorable little character and, best yet, they have names! The robot, G-Bot, and squirrel, Miss Julia, are our faves!

It will be hard to choose just one, especially since each sweater is one of a kind, so we advise that you pick out a few (at the very least). At $44, how can you resist?




Norma W. also does a super great foldable bag (And it holds up to 25lbs, amazing!), also with an adorable little creature friend. We recommend getting a bag to be friends with your sweater!

great new bags for spring!

We've had two new designers join Fresh Collective recently and they have delightful bags that we just HAVE to share.


My Brilliant Career (by Darya) has a super cute over-the-shoulder bag. The strap is a great length and all of the fabrics are adorable.


Norma W. (by Alyssa), has a super versatile bag that holds up to 25lbs; great for groceries! And each brightly coloured bag features a different little critter. Our favourite is the bird! So sweet!
