Day tripper: Come clean

All-day style essentials to make the most of summer


Summer, is that you? You’ve been making some cameos, but please stay for the rest of the party! Summer in Toronto means being out for the whole day, being sure to absorb every last bit of sun before we lose it again.

I’ve rounded up some key tips and accessories to make sure you’re prepared to do it all.
