Winnipeg Fashion Feature!!!

Lets face it - Winnipeg gets bullied. We aren't considered cosmopolitan. We like talking about the weather, and don't consider it small talk. We really like Tim Hortons. We shamelessly lose our cool over the Jets (True North!). We are friendly. Really friendly. So much is our friendly reputation, the noun itself made itself on to our license plates. We're so friendly, we don't even fight back against these taunts. Beyond maybe a mumbling mention of Grand Beach and Folk Fest.  Maybe some of these taunts are fair, maybe not. I guess it depends on who you talk to, what you're looking for. One of MY personal least favourite reputations however? That we don't have any style. Perhaps we don't have the sprawling metropolitan streets of Montreal, the cosmopolitan opinions of Toronto, or the handful of shopping neighbourhoods in Victoria. But we got Osbourne Village! We got Corydon! We have quaint, cheerful local boutiques all across our little-city-with-the-big-city-feel :) Below, I feature merchandise available at three of my favourite of these boutiques and encourage you to check them out!
