Magical Season

The special days of this season merge together as we celebrate the winter Solstice, the 8 days of  Hanukkah, and Christmas.  Everybody works hard to make these days special, cooking, shopping, making lanterns, getting together with friends, family, with all the joys and obligations.  I joked with my Muslim printer the other day, that the people who truly get a holiday at this time of year are the Muslims!!

We are receiving last minute deliveries at Urbanity.  Cut Loose sent us more pinafores, lots of Swing Tees in many colours, and those popular dotty/striped scarves. MonaLin socks have arrived from Ozone -- which many of you have been waiting for, and Oleana has sent a final 2011 shipment due to arrive on Friday, Dec. 23rd.  Urbanity will be open until 3 o'clock on Christmas Eve.  We reopen on Tuesday, December 27th. at noon.

December in Urbanity

We have found the perfect dress.  It comes from Denmark, and it is made from virgin wool (the first time a sheep is sheered the fibres are rounded on one end which means they are softer).  It flairs from just above any bulges, and and it pairs perfectly with your Oleana cardigan.  With or without a sweater, this is the perfect dress.  We once again have two styles of McVerdi raincoats, lined with wool.  The perfect coat for cold rainy Vancouver days.
We have something perfect for you!
