LG FASHION WEEK 2010

Joe Fresh set for their s/s 2011 collection.

Unfortunately I don't remember now which collection this photo was take from but clearly my photo taking skill takes away from the clothes doesn't it?? It was a fluke.





I'm sorry. I've been a bad blogger. I don't think I have ever updated these photos on here. They are from the LG Fashion Week from this year. I just remembered that I never posted them up and I wanted to before the new year. My friend Inga who works in advertising hooked me up with an Industry pass (woot!).

December// Update on my life.

This blog, which I meant to update quite frequently on a daily basis has turned into whenever-I-can routine. I visited dutil this morning and their jean sale was unreal! There were some great deals but my weight has been fluctuating ok fine. I've been gaining weight since I moved back out East to Toronto since May and hasn't gone down since. I thought that my break in Vancouver this holiday was going to do me good but I've been feasting on my mom's homemade food so that sure hasn't been helping. So yeah, I couldn't find a one single pair for me to take home. But I was only there for 20 minutes and then I had to run to my work (oh yeah, got a temp job). I did find these two pairs that were nice so I hope to go back there tomorrow morning to see if they have them in my size - whatever my size is at now... yikes.

Holiday is Near and there's Sales Everywhere!

What makes it difficult for me to wait until Boxing day/ week here in Canada that there are so many sales going on this holiday season, even before Christmas! If retailers are putting out the sales now, I wonder what if would be like during the first week of January...

Anyway print this flyer out to get discounted jeans at dutil!

DACE Sample Sale

I've been so crazy with school I haven't been able to blog at all. I meant to decorate my page and everything but school really chained me to the ground with art making. I'm pretty proud of the work that I have produced so far this semester though. I reflected back at the work that I produced in second year and I thought "what a waste of time, money, grade, space". Trying to juggle three jobs and full-time school was definitely not working out for me. Anyway I just got off school for a nice little winter break so perhaps I will be able to do all the things that I wanted to do on here. But before that I am going to make some adjustments in my wardrobe! My closet really shows that I haven't been able to go shopping at all. I started to browse here and there but I'm really excited for this up and coming one. Dace is hosting a sample sale at their warehouse with other companies like Lily&Jae and Larry. I can't wait to go there. The last sample/ warehouse sale I was at was Anna Kosturova's and I got like three sets of beautifully crocheted bikinis! She even helped me pick out a top (unfortunately my boobs were too small for the one she picked). Anyway wow, I can't believe I haven't been to a sample sale since the end of summer. Laaaaaaameeee.

It has been awhile since my last post and I found this super interesting article from Marie Claire. It is in regards to copyrighting within the fashion industry. I'm not sure how it will exactly work out but we'll see if they go further into developing this. To read the article, click here.
