| - Maybe it's a girl thing, but I love this store too.
Yes, as I've mentioned before, the city does seem inundated with novelty gifty items and the stores that feature them. Still, I feel that the ones I have entered all have their place, their neighbourhood to brighten up, and certain things that make them stand out.
Red Pegasus takes care of Little Italy's need for those sassy "I'm Saving Up!" banks, and Jesus-branded anything, as well as some funky jewelry and accessories for the urban baby. I always find myself drawn into their cosmetics wall, which has a pretty cool selection of stylish scents and bath products and funky chapstick galore. They also sometimes have some good stuff displayed on the sidewalk and on sale- I always regret leaving behind the wall-paper border featuring photos of Berlin. See? Novel *and* functional (it was also only $15)!
Oh, and last time I shopped there, I got some on-sale Valentine's Day items (yes, almost 3 weeks *before* the holiday, which is mighty useful), and a FREE day planner (yes, only two weeks after the new year), but I doubt they have any left by this time. Still, pretty kickass.
