Village Ice Cream

It took me a while to get to Village Ice Cream, but I finally made it...and sooo glad I did.  They were nice enough to give me a half chocolate, half salted caramel.  Amazing!  I took home some ice cream sandwiches for the teens that could not get up at 10:00 in the morning on Mother's Day, and a pint of Rootbeer.  The Rootbeer was a total flashback to the floats I always had at my Grandparents when I was a kid...a long, long time ago.  So good.

The shop is currently hidden behind a construction site on 10th Ave (south) on the east side of McLeod Trail northbound.

Check out their website http://villageicecream.com for hours and directions.

The Creamcycle

Book it for your next event.  It's loaded with ice cream sandwiches and single serving cups of deliciousness!  Awesome idea!!

10 flavours always in the dipping cabinet and in the pint freezer.

A little pic of the neighborhood as I walked from the store to the seamstress in Garrison Woods, Calgary.  What a great little neighborhood!

Fay - Loving the Italian designs this spring!

Fay is part of the Tod's Design Group.  Once again, my fav does not appear to be readily available in North America.  It appears as though I must make a trip to Italy!

Few words are needed to describe this colorful retro spring line.  Love it!!

 

Holly Fulton

It was nice to wake up to some fresh designs for Fall 2013!  Fulton is a Scottish born, London based designer...LOVE

These are my favorite pieces from her fall collection...

And from Spring 2013...

Fun, Fresh and Wearable!

Twin Set by Simona Barbieri - Girls

An absolutely stunning Italian Tween line!  There is a huge gap in the market for girls between the ages of 8 and 14.  They either have to look like little girls, or dress from stores that are not age appropriate.  This summer's line from Twin Set Girl perfect.  Their online store is not available to North America yet so if you're travelling across the pond, I'd look for it. 

More from the site...I'm in love with this line!
