Remember when St. Laurent Centre scrapped their "Oooooh-ahhhh St. Laurent, shopping for LIFE!" jingle in favour of annoying reminders about sidewalk sales and Santa Clause visits from 'Tori' and the Style Squad: a sassy, thin, silluetted figure surrounded by fluffly flowers, shopping bags, and often see riding a Vespa.It dawned on me after hearing their latest radio spot last week that Tori has been dumped! Now a nameless radio host is responsible for telling us customers can receive a free tote (oooh a TOTE!) if they're spotted shopping by the Style Squad on Saturdays. The faceless / nameless motley crew of mall thugs is now leaderless!
Did Tori bargain too hard when her contract was up? Did she demand residuals in lieu of free high heels for her work? Has she been shipped off to rehab for public intoxication after realizing that all her efforts to stylize the Vanier elite were fruitless?
Either way the effects are immediate. The St. Laurent Style Guide claims it's "high time for high wasted" pants returned. Tori, PLEASE reconsider whatever caused your untimely departure! Come back and save suburban moms from fashion hell!
