I was super excited to receive an invite to the opening of the UNIQLO at Eaton Centre on Sept 17th. This store has apparel with Japanese values of simplicity, quality and longevity. Not to mention that everything I’ve bought from this store is COMFORTABLE.

When I woke up that morning, I knew exactly what I was going to the wear to the event. It was a no brainer – I was going to wear the dress that I bought at the UNIQLO Flagship store in NYC on Labour Day Weekend!!

I was eager to see if the dress was going to be on the racks in Canada and I was super eager to see the price.

Indeed, I found the dress and guess what? It was only $10 more than what I bought it for in NYC.  Here’s proof of the tag.  How awesome is that?

I bought two more dresses that night that I cant stop wearing. I’m positively crazy about this brand. The prices are perfect and I love their fashionably products  – sweaters, scarves, blouses etc.

Not to mention I was this stores’ first customer!

I will continue to be a happy customer as they are opening at Yorkdale Shopping Centre on Oct 20th and I only live 7 minutes away. Hip Hip Hooray.

Happy Shopping!!

I’m still on a no carb diet which means I’m still not eating sandwiches. SNIFF. However I did find some replacements that are a quick, tasty and affordable alternatives!!  As you know, (or might not know), I recently started a new job and even though I’m not crazy about the commute, I am THRILLED that the office is located near a lot of Asian Food. SCORE.

This is what I’ve been picking up lately for lunch.

$3.99

Basically it’s an assortment of spicy radish, seaweed salad (?), beansprouts and eggplant. All I know is that it’s tasty, it has no carbs and it’s cheap!!

$3.99

This spicy tofu dish provides me with some much needed protein. Can’t complain.

$1.50 each

These triangles contain a seaweed wrap, a filling (salmon) and a triangle of sticky rice. I’m in love with these triangles even if I can’t figure out how to properly wrap it up. Don’t get me started. I need a lesson despite the fact that there’s instructions on the wrapepr.

I’ve also discovered Shiso Tree  in Jtown and went running there after reading a blog entry from The Hungry Cat. I ordered an amazing meal for $8. Sadly I didnt have my good camera with me that day but will be returning!!
