If it works for shopping, it works for us: this is a pop-up series on the future (or is there a future?) of fashion in our city. Every Wednesday from now until we get bored, we'll log time with a new face on the local style scene: someone who's fresh, and not Joe, because there's got to be more to Toronto than the Mimrans.

With this October falling upon us as heavily as the one of, say, 1929, shopping is the last thing we can do to lighten the mood. We keep hearing about this thing called "recession," and the word reverbrates between our ears whenever we take the tiniest tiptoe toward the counter at a clothing shop. Sure, we don't have property or stocks, and, since we decided to write for a living, never had job prospects to begin with. But even if it doesn't directly affect us, the collective economic mood is such that we feel guilty making even the remotestsuggestion of retail as therapy.
