Autumn/Winter Trend: Capes



Olivia Palermo in the famous (and personally monogrammed) Burberry cape

When Olivia Palermo walked down the streets in THAT Burberry cape, I knew a trend was born. High streets scrambled fast to provide great dupes of it and bloggers everywhere were lusting after it. I can't blame them, wearing capes are a great alternative to wearing a heavy coat and keep you super warm as well as chic. You can also cheat and just buy a blanket scarf or 'chadaar' and simply carry it as a cape.

Here are some Pakistani fashionista working the cape trend:

Hockey Hall Of Fame - My Date With Lord Stanley (Toronto, ONT)

Image
Entrance As we shift some of these review back to our neighbors upstairs, Canada, this is a way to introduce myself. Hi, my name is Danny, I'm a Panda, and I'm also a Hockey fan. Growing up in the United States, before becoming a foodie, a "gourmand," I've always been what you call a sport nut. I love Baseball, Football, Basketball, and heck, even NASCAR, but in the past 3-4 years, the sport that I've been following primarily has been Hockey, and my San Jose Sharks. All this was probably due to the nightly hockey conversation with my buddy Samuel, a hockey fanatic from Canada. One of the main reasons I decided on adding Toronto to our Canadian tour wasn't due to its food, but for me, selfishly, I wanted to see the National Hockey Hall of Fame. It's like going to Graceland for them Elvis fans. Here we go: Shot from Entrance Located underground in a small shopping center, the Hockey Hall of Fame was neatly tucked in a corner, though the Hall of Fame inte

Les Délices de l'Erable - Great Little Tourist Stop (Montreal, QC)

Image
Les Délices de l'Erable It's our last day in Montreal, and the last meal that awaited my buddies and I would be the main reason I had suggested Canadian trip in the first place, Au Pied de Cochon. Since we had to finish the smoked meat plate from Schwartz from the night before for breakfast, none of us were hungry and would rather save our appetite for the foie gras feast that awaited, thus we stopped by this rather lovely gelato and maple syrup shop while we were strolling around the streets of Montreal. Inside Les Délices de l'Erable This was a very clean and neat shop. You were able to not only purchase the various flavors of gelato available, but also maple syrup to take home. I would have to say though, an French speaking Asian girl was pretty hot! Various Flavors of Gelato While it may not be the best gelato I've ever had, it was definitely very good. One of the flavor I chose was maple syrup and I love the flavors in the gelato. Even though the temperature in Mon
