Since my first retail job when I was 16 years old at a family-run decor boutique, I’ve always dreamed of having my own little shop. And after 15+ years as a Design & DIY expert on Cityline (Canada’s longest running daytime television show), I decided on a whim to transform a vintage trailer into an itty bitty pink pop-up shop for an episode in 2019. I was immediately overwhelmed by the outpouring of love and support for my fun little venture, and traveling with the trailer reignited my retail dreams. I loved connecting with people in different communities as well as promoting local makers and artisans... until the pandemic hit! It foiled my pop-up plans, but the forced pause due to Covid gave me time to revisit my retail dream and turn it into a reality. So, PINCH ME, because Hue La La truly is a dream come true!
