My most recent Roots obsession - the Selina Italian Leather Box Bag ($239.99) I wear it every day (did you know it's pink inside? sigh...)
I can always count on Roots for a hit of pure Canadiana, with its cozy sweaters, easy lounge wear, sumptuous leather handbags and nostalgic finds (Beaver Canoe, anyone?). With the influx of American chains storming our retail scene, I love to see that Roots is constantly growing, evolving and, like a fine VQA, just keeps getting better with age.
It's the last day of RLR's Treat Week and to celebrate, we're giving away a $50 Gift Card to Roots. To win, leave a comment below telling me your what you love most about Canada. (Maple syrup? Hockey? Justin Bieber?) Contest ends at 5 pm today. Good luck to every Canuck! x

I love Canada because it has so much to offer; from vast expanses of pure nature like Gros Morne National Park, to the hustle and bustle of a busy and culturally diverse city like Vancouver. Everywhere you go the people are more than welcoming and the same can be said for the landscape. Canada has once-in-a-lifetime experiences from coast to coast and I just can’t seem to get enough of them!
I love the diversity of the people in Canada and how open-minded and friendly they are!
I love the openness, the honesty, and the caring nature of Canada and Canadians. We really do live in the best Country in the world.
Maple syrup.....especially boiled and poured on snow. Yum!
I love the change of seasons
I love the autumn colours of the trees
The Maple Leafs!
We have great weather
I love the wide diversity of beauty I can find across Canada. From the Pacific through to the Atlantic and everything in-between.
What I love the most about Canada are the people. Everyone is so friendly and polite.
