The daily steal: Basket-weave flats, $30
Good wicker clothing is hard to come by. Jean Paul Gaultier’s haute couture collection was inspired by Aztecs and their weaving tradition, but I just don’t have the kind of life that allows me to look like a human basket. These woven flats ($30, urbanoutfitters.com), which look a bit like pixelated snake skin, fit the bill for real life.

Available in silver, black and gold, these waterproof and skid-resistant ballet flats come tucked into 6 x 5 inch wristlet that turns into a tote for the shoes you’ve just removed. So go ahead! Break those shoes in and wear them with pride. Relief is waiting in your handbag.

Banana Republic brings their footwear collection to Canada
For those of us who have been logging some serious frequent flyer miles in pursuit of those fabulous fashion collections not available in Canada, like Banana Republic’s footwear, it’s time to start unpacking your bags. As of this month, select BR stores across Canada have (finally!) made room on the shelves for their coveted footwear collection (from $89). Think studded platforms, woven flats and soft leather boots in a goes-with-everything-palette of grey, tan, cognac and black. The shoes started trickling into select Toronto (Bloor Street, Toronto Eaton Centre, Sherway Gardens), Calgary (TD Square) and Vancouver (Robson Street) locations this week. Repeat after me, there’s no place like home.
