Moves like Mimran

Kim Newport-Mimran works it with the lovely ladies from ASC Public Relations at the Pink Tartan Holiday Preview at Bayview Village

When Toronto's reigning queen of cool, Kim Newport-Mimran, hosted a private event at the new Pink Tartan at Bayview Village, I RSVP'd somewhat reluctantly, knowing just how well Pink Tartan woos.  I committed to keep my Visa locked tightly in my clutch and focus on the job at hand - get pictures, meet and greet, get out. Simple, right?

After they sent Rosedale Livery to pick me up, then plied me with Veuve and macarons, it was already too late. Once Mrs. Mim took me on a private tour of the shop in her ever-so-cool way - I wanted everything. 

Though I resisted the Thierry Lasry shades and the Mark Cross bag (just barely), I couldn't help myself, walking away with a cute pair of bright yellow shades, a Parisian Chic daybook, Marvis toothpaste and Crown Mill notecards in 'Joe Fresh Orange'. Now here's the shocking part: I spent under $100. Didn't think it was possible at Pink Tartan but happily, it is.  KNP has curated a lovely assortment of little luxuries for you and your favourites, like Mariage Frères teas (her fave) and her go-to EX VOTO White Edition candles, direct from Paris, because that's how she rolls.  Check out some of her can't-resist picks from Pink Tartan, including the adorable new Karl Lagerfeld, Anna Wintour and Miuccia Prada MuaMua dolls ($35 each). Love them!

Happy weekend, lovelies.  My wine glasses are looking remarkably empty...Hmm..must do something about that ;)
