Shopping During TIFF

During the Toronto International Film Festival, I take a week off work to attend the screenings. I also spend more money than during any other time of the year.

When I have time between films, I wander through Yorkville and pop into Holt Renfrew. Last year I purchased this Marc by Marc Jacobs Dr. Q Groovee handbag. It was an impulse buy, but I love the bag.



This year I have not planned to do much shopping. I made sure to fit my pilates reformer and mat classes into my schedule.

Countdown to TIFF

It is only five weeks until the Toronto International Film Festival. Ten days of movies, poor food choices and long lines. It is also the week that I spend a lot of money while browsing the stores on Bloor Street and Yorkville. I must save money for my vacation in the fall. I usually take a week off of work during the film festival. It is like my mini break in the year, but I always go back to work more tired than I was at the beginning of the festival.
