CLOTHING: “My sneakers are from Browns (50 Bloor West, 416-960-4925, and others) and cost around $150. The jeans are Blend of America from Wenches and Rogues (610 Queen West, 416-536-2172) and cost about $70. My Super 8 T-shirt is a favourite. It was made for me by my friend Laura McKibbon, an artist living in Montreal. You can’t get the T-shirt anywhere, but she does similar screening onto ceramics that you can buy at Iodine & Arsenic (867 Queen West, 416-681-0577). I got this leather bracelet for $20 at Borderline (331 Queen West, 416-599-9821) – they do custom stuff. My earrings were $6 from a cute street vendor on Queen West at Soho.”
