These Sunglasses Are Made In Canada From 500 Year Old Wood

Everything happens in Lakefield, Ontario! I recently had a chance to chat with the founder of Loch, a local startup that makes sunglasses using 500-year-old wood from the Great Lakes. Instead of using new wood, ie. chopping down more trees, they are using old wood from the Great Lakes and the end product is GORGEOUS.

How To Update Your Wardrobe For Spring Without Breaking The Bank

Canadians are very patient people. We WAIT A LONG TIME FOR warm weather.  In fact we are even happy when it’s sunny and not below freezing. One of the things that helps a lot of us Canucks beat the winter blahs is SPRING FASHION!  We are sick and tired of black, grey and blahhhhhh fashion.
