I love the [Pink Tartan]
fur collars as a gift-
giving item, because it glamourizes every single out t in your wardrobe. It’s great with a blazer, or over a coat, and it’s warm. at would be one of my top picks, or a fur vest to wear as well. We also have these amazing Canadian- fur mittens that are always one size ts all.

If it comes in an orange bag, it’s usually a good gift!
For the Friend who has everything:
I would usually pick up something from Hermès or a special bottle of Bordeaux from my cellar.
For the host:
A beautiful candle
makes an excellent host/
housewarming gift. Look
for Ex Voto candles—Pink
Tartan in Yorkville sells
them.
Birthday present ideas:
My wife, Kim, always
likes to receive a piece of jewellery. If it’s a vintage piece, she knows I have put a lot of thought into it—David Webb comes to mind.
Favourite holiday giFt ideas:
Some of my favourite holiday gift ideas are a lovely scarf, a luxurious blanket,
a down coat, fun socks or a vintage purse.
Most thoughtFul giFt you’ve ever received: I have a friend who brought me a large tin of caviar
