Mine & Yours just celebrated 12 fabulous years in style — and if you weren’t there, don’t worry. We’ve got all the sparkling details to make you feel like you were.

This wasn’t just another birthday. It was a celebration of sustainable luxury, powerful women, and a movement that’s redefining what fashion can look like in Canada and beyond.

What Is Mine & Yours?

If you know, you know. But if you don’t — allow us to fill you in.

Mine & Yours is Canada’s premier luxury resale destination, proudly female-founded and built on a powerful belief: style shouldn’t come at the cost of the planet.

Twelve years ago in Vancouver, a bold idea took shape — to redefine luxury through circular fashion, empowering fashion lovers to both express themselves and make more sustainable choices. By giving designer pieces a second life, Mine & Yours champions mindful consumption, keeping beautiful fashion in circulation and out of landfills.

What started as one small boutique has grown into a nationwide movement, proving that when women lead with purpose and vision, the results are nothing short of iconic.

This isn’t just about clothes. It’s about empowerment, community, and impact — one timeless piece at a time.

Women Are Bosses

In a world where fast fashion moves faster than trends, Mine & Yours stands out as a beacon of intention. It’s more than a boutique — it’s a community where women buy, sell, and shine.

At their Yaletown 12th birthday celebration, owner Courtney Watkins welcomed guests with the same warmth and vision that built this brand from the ground up. Our three female members of the Glimmer team (Jane, Marina, and Janet) were there to celebrate, connect, and raise a glass alongside so many other inspiring women — founders, creatives, and changemakers who embody what it means to lead with heart.

Mine & Yours has built more than just a fashion destination. It’s a space where self-love is celebrated, where stories are shared, and where community thrives.

Glimmer at the Party

This celebration wasn’t just about fashion — it was about community, creativity, and connection. One of our founders, Marina, brought a special touch to the evening by live-painting elegant fashion croquis on Glimmer bottles, exclusively for Mine & Yours shoppers as sparkling keepsakes.

As guests browsed the stunning racks and timeless pieces, Glimmer was poured — a sparkling invitation to slow down, sip, and savour the moment.

Each glass added a touch of elegance to the evening, creating a warm, celebratory atmosphere where fashion and mindful indulgence met. Shoppers mingled, toasted, and discovered their next statement piece — all with a little Glimmer in hand.

Glimmer proudly stands with Mine & Yours in championing sustainable fashion and female empowerment. Just like Mine & Yours, Glimmer was built by strong, visionary women who believe in creating something beautiful, meaningful, and lasting.

Laughter filled the air, conversations flowed easily, and bold, brilliant fashionistas from across the community came together — celebrating style, entrepreneurship, and shared values.

What’s In vs. What’s Out

In a season where mindful choices are taking the spotlight, fashion is no exception. More than ever, people are moving away from fleeting trends and leaning into timeless pieces that tell a story — pieces that last.

Here’s what’s trending in the world of intentional style:

In:

Slow fashion — Thoughtfully made, ethically sourced, and built to endure beyond a single season.
Timeless luxury — Classic pieces that hold their value and never go out of style.
Investing in pieces that last — Quality over quantity, because true luxury doesn’t age out.
Curating your wardrobe with intention — Every piece earns its place.
Designer bags that hold their value and your confidence — Power dressing with purpose.
Spending on what sparks joy (and peace of mind) — Because how you feel matters more than the trend cycle.

Out:

Fast fashion guilt trips — No more overconsumption and regret.
Impulse trends that don’t serve you — Say goodbye to clutter and hello to curation.
Feeling bad about treating yourself — Intentional investment is self-care.
Buying fashion that ages out of trends within 1 year — Style should be forever, not fleeting.

How DOES LUXURY FASHION RELATE TO MY Mental Health?

Think of it this way: a Chanel bag isn’t just an accessory.
It’s an investment — in timelessness, in your confidence, in the way you show up in the world.

But it’s more than material.
Luxury is also taking care of yourself, owning the way you choose to spend your energy (and your money).

You deserve to celebrate your wins — in the way that feels right for you.

Cheers to 12 Years of SparklING FASHION

At this unforgettable party, fashion was exchanged, ideas were sparked, and connections were made that will continue to shine long after the night ended.

Mine & Yours has spent 12 years showing us what happens when women build something extraordinary.

From one small shop to a Canadian fashion movement, it’s proof that boss energy comes in all forms — especially Chanel.

Here’s to female founders, to sustainable fashion, and to luxury without apology.

Because the best investment you can make is in yourself.
