Shop Adidas by Stella McCartney. Need we say more? Bella, 560 Johnson St., Victoria, 250-380-0994, www.bellaonjohnson.com Shop More This funky newcomer to the LoJo strip introduced the red-hot L.A. label Robin's Jeans (with the signature angel wings on the rear) to Canada. 610 Johnson St., Victoria, 250-388-5660, www.northofwednesday.com Eat Delicious fish and corn chowder, albacore tuna tacones and excellent halibut and chips—of course everything tastes delish while eating on a blustery dock. Look for the modern shipping container painted hot tangerine and slate green with a garden on the roof. www.redfish-bluefish.com Spa The 30-minute customized Aveda facial ($65) is as refreshing as a brisk spring walk—but far more relaxing. Book him the Aveda Men's Shave ($110) and all will be smooth sailing. www.spamagnolia.com Stay The Magnolia offers comfortable view rooms with fireplaces, complimentary breakfast, and best of all, a harbour location minutes from shopping.
