Vancouver shop notes: Flatforms

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.
