AGE: 26 BLOGGING FOR: 3 years HOOD: Fairview PERSONAL STYLE: It's full of contradictions, but I really am a femme tomboy.

VANCOUVER STYLE ICON: I think my boss Treana Peake of Obakki has pretty awesome style. She always looks like a woman, but without losing any strength. FAVOURITE SHOPS: I love all of Gastown's o erings, but also love Rebecca Bree in Kits (left) when I need a jolt of femininity. 22 | bcliving.ca AGE: 25 BLOGGING FOR: 4 years HOOD: West Point Grey PERSONAL STYLE: It's gener- ally pretty classic with a slight feminine edge. FASHION INSPIRATION: I think at this point, I'm most inspired by the idea of fi nding a personal "uniform" consist- ing of quality, tried-and-true pieces and wonderful fi ts.

FAVOURITE SHOPS: I love admiring the eye candy at Rebecca Bree in Kits – that store is a dream. Mine and Yours (1060 Hornby Street ) (above) is a great new shop with a wonderful concept – like shopping your stylish best friend's closet. And I can't resist Hudson's Bay.
