Canadian Gift Guide

What It Is: People often ask me how I chose what goes on this blog. I explain it’s partially from me being an avid shopper – the seafoam trench coat you see above nearly had me cause a six-person pile-up at the escalator the other day, when I doubled back to check it out in person. Club Monaco has launched a new series of rain-friendly trenches in five shades that are completely apropos for spring. Whether you’re a traditionalist (go for the khaki) or a wild child (hello burnt orange), mature or young, a professional or a student, a classic trench completely belongs in your wardrobe this year – and for many years to come.

Who It’s For: Mom’s day is just around the corner – why not pick up a new spring coat she can rock till warmer days? The summer season also means wedding anniversaries are in abundance – why not treat your lady with a new-yet-timeless wardrobe addition? If you’re a bridesmaid, you and the fellow maids can team up and buy one for your friendly’s honeymoon, if she’s heading to a potentially rainy destination.

What It Costs: $249 each

Where It’s At: Club Monaco stores nationwide + online.
