About last week . . .
With a day off school and determined to help at the shop, our adorable Auzzy joined as we made the final preparations to open our new flagship boutique in North Vancouver’s vibrant Lower Lonsdale neighbourhood. “I’m ready to go to work mama,” she proudly proclaimed dressed in her favourite sequin dress as she headed out the door to the car.
I can still vividly recall the excitement I felt as a child to go out for a day of city adventures with my mom or one of my grandmas. Especially those days I was in tow perusing shops and cafes, taking in all the different textures, shapes, sights and aromas. So much from these childhood experiences has inspired my path to finding and creating Looby Doo, and to shaping its evolution to today.
This day with Auz was an unforgettable one. We worked, danced, listened to our favourite songs, and at times, both quietly enjoyed the creative freedom of bringing a blank canvas to life from behind the scenes. And our jaunt out for lunch turned into an irresistible photo op creating memories that will last me a lifetime. Couldn’t have done it without this incredible little helper who stayed well into the night, making me laugh and being my inspiration for all that’s to come.
We can’t wait to meet you xx
