Do more design
If you missed last weekend’s Design Show bonanza, never fear. Some of our favourite exhibitions continue this week. Capacity at Bookhou (798 Dundas West, capacitytoronto.com) runs until Sunday (February 6). Don’t miss Kirsten White‘s extra-small to extra-large Nest chairs and her gorgeous set of Aster bowls. Down the street, MADE At Home (madedesign.ca/athome) is on until February 12 in the apartment above the Canadian design shop (867 Dundas West).
Angel appearance
Model Chanel Iman is at the Victoria’s Secret store in the Eaton Centre (220 Yonge, 416-205-1222, victoriassecret.com) on Wednesday (February 9) to help shoppers get into the Valentine spirit. Stop by between 4 and 6 pm to bra shop and get your photo snapped with the super. Don’t know what to gift this February 14? VS suggests its Love push-up bra or Sexy Little Things Noir: Love Me fragrance.
Triple sale threat
Handbag and jewellery designer Jenny Bird (jennybird.myshopify.com) is partnering with bauble boy Dean Davidson (deandavidson.ca) and those fashion designing Beckermans (beckermans.com) on a sample sale Friday (February 4). Head to Bird’s studio (174 Spadina, #508) between noon and 8 pm to shop accessories, vintage, womenswear and more. The sale continues Saturday (February 5) from noon to 5 pm.
