… And She Makes Belts Too
Super soft and lovingly made, these belts are built with leather remnants that Genevieve recycles into the magical and practical accessories. These belts do a great job of holding up your pants or cinching in the waist on that dress you love. Use them to jazz up the sweater or coat that you want to wear everyday in as many ways as possible.
Your life is your most powerful art. See you at the boutique.

Say goodbye to cold cheeks. Say goodbye to cold noses and cold chins. Say goodbye to messy hair and bad hat head. Say goodbye to winter whining. Snuggle up in a KAZAK hood.
Let the wind blow.
I have to warn you once you have worn one of Genevieve Paquette’s hoods you may not wear your hat again. Fashionably warm yourself in recycled hipness. Genevieve Paquette brings us her winter collection for 2010-2011. As always she is consistent about offering winter warming wear that bridges Fairytale Romanticism from urban to country. The hippie goddess in you will be as warm as the urban hipster and both of your playful sides can comfortably face the Montreal elements with a mischievous smile.
Be bold. Be mysterious. Be rebellious. Be sweet. Stay toasty warm while being cooler than cool. Cast a love spell. Carry a poem in your pocket and transform every jacket and coat in your wardrobe by topping it with these gracious hoods.
Genevieve’s hoods are available with recycled fur for $88 or in a non fur version for $58. Come pick up the warmest head gear Montreal has to offer you this winter.
Your life is your most powerful art. See you at the boutique.

Jamie Brock, one of my favorite KL boutique designers has just recently gotten back from Costa Rica where she lives part-time when not designing fabulous eco-friendly fashions here in Montreal 
. Welcome home Jamie!
Jamie’s line Advika focuses on creating comfortable, fashion forward pieces entirely made from textiles such as soy, hemp, organic cotton and bamboo. Pretty cool, huh!?! She was kind enough to make me one of her incredible dresses (that I am completely obsessed with might I add), and I can’t get over it’s amazing versatility!
Above, Jamie sports one of her Advika creations in black (also available in-store in deep purple and lavender in sizes small through large).
Jamie’s sister Jen created and designed this gorgeous mosaic shower for their Costa Rica getaway home…
They also have a goat that they milk themselves that likes to hang out
If you love far away fashions, be sure to head to the KL Boutique to check out Katrin’s personal collection of hand-picked scarves she brought back from Thailand! They are selling for only $8!!! Can you believe?!?! There is a rainbow array that make perfect headbands, neckties and purse charms, so snap these babies up while they are still around.
Enjoy the beautiful summer day (hopefully by a pool)!

Ever wonder what happens to those unusable strips of excess fabric? While many clothing companies may just toss them in the trash, Katrin and her team turn them into the beautiful signature KL Scarfette!
What in the world is a Scarfette you ask?
Scarfettes are some of the most playful and fun accessories you can wear around your neck, in your hair, on your favorite handbag, clipped into a brooch… really wherever you desire a little splash of color and excitement! The best thing is that since they are studio scraps you can match them to some of your favorite KL staples… bring out the print in your party skirt with a similar color Scarfette headband!
Here is Hannah merrowing the Scarfettes in fun thread color combos! No two Scarfettes are alike!
Giving lost fabric new lives… Vote Scarfette!
Have a beautiful weekend!
