Perhaps you’re one of those clever shoppers who starts ticking off friends and family from the gift list in November. But if you’re like me, you’re scrambling the last weekend before Christmas and congratulating yourself because it’s not like you waited until Dec. 23. Kitsilano happens to have one of the finest boutique line-ups in town, whether you’re a yoga mum/dad, a tech geek or a UBC student with a Destroyer fetish.
Here’s my list of five ways to make someone happy when shopping in Kits:
1) Skoah Holiday Travel Kit, $25
Skoah’s been skooling Vancouverites on skin workouts since 2001. Now this locally-based line of spatiques is a North American favourite. Their basic philosophy is: Skin, like your booty, needs regular training to be healthy and look great. They assure you this is not an indulgence, but a duty, and both genders seem to appreciate the results. Scoop up a Skoah Holiday Travel Kit (they’ve got one for each skin type) which comes with five travel-sized skin savers: kleasning lotion, tonik, face skrub, hydradew mask and face skotion. Then glow your way through the holiday season. 2258 W. 4th Ave., 604-609-0200, Skoah.com read more »

This evening, from 6 to 9 pm, Lushuz boutique is having a Spring Fling sale event with 30 percent off all merchandise. Drop by for an evening of shopping, tea-sipping and prize draws—think spa and yoga goodies. The boutique also promises sweet nibbles, mainly Jelly Bellies.
If you’ve never had the chance to check out Lushuz, they stock well known designers alongside some exciting up-and-coming newbies. I particularly like the Australian label One Teaspoon and London-based leather expert Muubaa. Lushuz is taking special orders on the covetable, ultra soft Muubaa Athena Biker jacket now.
For more on in-store labels, check out their Facebook page. If you “like” them they’ll give you an additional 10 percent off at the Spring Fling event tonight!
