News & Events

Are you ready for our upcoming  Coriander Friends & Family Holiday Open House? We will have holiday tea, festive gingerbread cookies, the always helpful Coriander Elves, and everything you need this holiday season.

Helping your favourite person feel confident and beautiful with a wardrobe boost feels nice, doesn’t it? Coriander’s Signature Experience Gift Certificate is your guarantee of gift giving success.

Our extremely popular night of men in underwear, Coriander’s SAXX Fashion Show, happens November 7th in support of My Friend's House, a non-profit agency that offers vital assistance to women in the Georgian Triangle. Only 100 tickets available online or at Coriander Life and Coriander Style.

From 11 AM to 4 PM on Friday, November 3rd, our FDJ fit expert and Jean Whisperer, Kim Crawford, will be working her denim magic. Kim will size you up and find the ideal pair for your unique shape, often with just a glance—it's a truly beautiful experience. Don't deny yourself this opportunity to be professionally fit.

Bring the gently worn pieces in your “donate” pile (washed and folded please) to Coriander Style in the month of October and we'll give you $15 credit towards a clothing purchase you make that day AND we’ll take your treasures to the Beaver Valley Outreach for you! Poof—you're in the sustainable fashion market.

Zaryski's paintings, done in acrylic, feature subjects and scenes from her everyday life. She has exhibited in many, many shows and galleries, garnering both fans and collectors of her very popular pieces.   

Coriander is holding a (temporary) tattoo parlour session out on the street in front of our Life store to raise funds for Home Horizon – Barbara Weider House, a local centre for youth in crisis in our community. 

Join us for an unforgettable evening of entertainment at Coriander's Fall Fashion Jam where we will reveal the most recent trends in fashion for both men and women. You will also be supporting Hospice Georgian Triangle. 

Do you like to entertain outside? Outdoor lighting really helps set the mood for evening entertaining. Warm nights (and even cooler ones) are meant to relished in the fresh air, and our exciting new line of eco-friendly solar-powered outdoor lanterns by ALLSOP are designed to brighten your garden, yard, and/or patio even during harsh Canadian winters. 

The maker, Allsop, is based in the United States and creates forward thinking products.

"We are dedicated to making eco-friendly solar lighting [...] It is our mission at Allsop Home & Garden to make your garden 'glow' without compromising style or function. We call it Solar Garden Art."

 

 

This gorgeous solar lantern collection is made of ultra-durable yet lightweight DuPont™ Tyvek® material, capable of weathering any of Nature's moods. The hand-punched "intricate designs are beautiful by day and cast ethereal light patterns by night." See for yourself. 

 

Hang one amongst the trees and let its glow highlight the foliage. 

 

The lantern hardware is made of stainless steel for strength and durability.

 

 

And these eco-friendly lanterns can stay up year round, no matter the weather. Just hang somewhere in the path of direct sunlight for the solar panel to power the rechargeable battery. And the battery is most definitely included. :) 

 

Don't keep them for only special occasions. These pretty lanterns look too good, by day or night, to not be enjoyed all the time.

 

So many gorgeous colours and patterns from which to choose!

Many of you have had the pleasure of meeting this all round fantastic team member at Coriander. Here is a little more about our affable, talented, world-travelling Coriander asset.

Introducing Cari!

 

What drew you to Coriander? What do you like about your job here?

I started out almost 4 years ago as the ‘Visual Storyteller’ at Coriander where I was responsible for the general merchandising. Within the year, I took on the role of Team Lead for Coriander Life, a job which was very close to my heart because I got to work directly with our wonderful customers. And most recently, I have taken on the positions of Creative Director and Assistant Buyer for both our Coriander stores, which is super fun.

I was drawn to Coriander because it's such a dynamic small business, built on pure dedication with a passion for fun and great intention. I've worked for big brand companies in Toronto in the past and I find the unique personality and culture of Coriander really refreshing.

 

What is your favourite Coriander product and why?

There's in no way I can pick one single fave Coriander product! I absolutely love SQ Vegan Bags, the cheeky cards, the funky silver jewellery, and how could you not love the clothing?  

There's always something for everyone. And now that I am helping with the buying process, I love just about everything.

Tell us a bit about yourself.

I am Toronto born, but I have lived in a few other places around the world: The Arctic, The Channel Islands, Costa Rica, Revelstoke BC, and now Collingwood!

I love music, playing frisbee, swimming, and decorating houses. Exploring thrift stores and antique markets are also among my favourite activities.

 

Cari would love it if you were to stop by and say hello. So would we. The Coriander team is very appreciative of her innumerable skills and warm personality, and we won’t EVER let her leave. Never. 

 

It’s Pride weekend in Collingwood (July 14-16) and Coriander is joining the rainbow party!

On Saturday, July 15^th we invite you to come get your face painted with our gorgeous cruelty-free products by Unicorn Snot. Stop by our tent set up outside Coriander Life between 11AM and 4PM, make a donation, and get ready to be transformed into happy, rainbow mode!  All funds raised from our face painting event go to support The Rainbow Club of Southern Georgian Bay.

Our very own Stylist Zoe will be artistically applying our fabulously colourful Unicorn Snot products to all willing faces. These carefully concocted products are vegan, cruelty-free, and add a perfect little sparkle to your look. Have a look at our selection.

Body glitter, Anyone? Sparkle from head to toe as subtly or as boldly as you choose. It’s all in the application.

 

     

 

Wear your pride and joie de vivre with this 15 shade colour punch face and body paint palette. Just dip the brush in water, mix paint evenly, and apply to your skin. There are 7 colours that are UV reactive and glow under black light. AND they’re not sticky! AND they come off easily with soap and water.

  

 

 

Pretty up your pucker with a touch/slather of glitter lip gloss. It’ll be a kiss they’ll remember for a long time.

   

 

 

And keep yourself safe from all those UV rays with some sparkly sunscreen SPF 30. Carefree summer fun is the best kind of summer fun…although you can add some shielding sparkle to your face on those bright, fresh, snowy ski runs too.

 

 

Love is for everybody. And so is Unicorn Snot. Come find out for yourself.
