My most recent Roots obsession - the Selina Italian Leather Box Bag ($239.99) I wear it every day (did you know it's pink inside? sigh...)
I can always count on Roots for a hit of pure Canadiana, with its cozy sweaters, easy lounge wear, sumptuous leather handbags and nostalgic finds (Beaver Canoe, anyone?). With the influx of American chains storming our retail scene, I love to see that Roots is constantly growing, evolving and, like a fine VQA, just keeps getting better with age.
It's the last day of RLR's Treat Week and to celebrate, we're giving away a $50 Gift Card to Roots. To win, leave a comment below telling me your what you love most about Canada. (Maple syrup? Hockey? Justin Bieber?) Contest ends at 5 pm today. Good luck to every Canuck! x

I really love that Roots is Canadian. It's something I brag about when people ask me where I got my bag.
If I need to give a Canadian themed gift I always buy something from Roots. Their stuff is stylish, fun and always well received by my US friends. Roots reminds me that it's fun to be Canadian.
Love all the leather bags from Roots.
What I love about Canada is the politeness of Canadians!
Roots sweatshirts are must - great quailty.
I love Whistler, it's the greatest place on the planet!
the freedom ,the space & most of all the diversity & the tolerance.
I love how Canada is such a peaceful, free and accepting country. I love the beauty from the Great Lakes to the oceans, from the prairies to the rockies and I love how everyone can feel like they belong.
I love democracy, our health care system, Drake and my boy Justin Bieber!
I love the diversity of Canada, and how most people here have originated from somewhere else, recently or generations ago.
i'm feeling so proud to be a canadian right now! x
