A couple weeks ago, I had the pleasure of attending an event in the city hosted by "The Bay," Canada's leading department store. So fun!! I was pretty darn excited to go because it meant getting off work early - yes! I usually work 12/14 hours a day, which is fine... I sincerely love what I do but this was such a nice treat. I previewed upcoming spring/summer trends, chatted with my favourite local bloggers and sipped champagne - a truly lovely evening!!
Yay! I was thrilled to finally meet Monika of the The Doctors Closet, and Chelle of Discovering Elegance - such sweet gals! And (of course!) my usual fashion blogging buddies too: Alicia, Randa, Leonie, Mena & Jen. What about you guys? Do you attend fashion events within in your own city?! It was something that was discussed at this year's TXSC conference and something I'm trying to do a little more of - besides, they had me at champagne! ;)
As for my own look?! I opted for colour. Yellow seems to be such a fun & popular hue this spring and I can see why - it's an instant pick me up! Otherwise, I kept it simple with a grey cardigan and threw in my gold Coach bag for a little extra glamour + my new Jeffrey Campbell wedges, which I promise to not wear in every single post, haha! Have a great day guys. xo veronika

Aw, it's been so fun seeing posts about this event pop up on blogs all over the place. I was flying to Winipeg the evening of the event, and very much wish I could have been sipping champagne and wearing colourful clothes with all of you beautiful girls! I love the look you chose for the evening, particularly the cheerful yellow dress, which is the perfect shade for a spring evening. Hope you're having a wonderful Wednesday, my friend!
ReplyDeletexox,

Lovely lovely! That yellow dress is perfect for Spring and Summer! I like how it buttons in the chest part.
ReplyDeleteLooks like you had a fabulous time at the event. It must have been nice to get to meet other bloggers and party with them amongst all those pretty clothes. Love it!
I love this bright yellow dress! It has spring written all over it! Looks like a fun time! And I agree, getting out of work early is fun, hehe! :)

What a lovely yellow dress! I would love to attend fashion events in my area, but I don't know when they are or who to contact. Blah! And I'm right near NYC. I've commented on an event on a blogger's page, but she never got back to me, so...what can ya do?
ReplyDeleteTHis looks like so much fun! I am always wishing I could go to blogger events but I always find out about them too late to put in for a day off. :( Someday maybe. Also, yellow is such a good color for you!!!
ReplyDeletevery pretty dress!

What a great yellow! Looks like you had lots of fun at a fun event. I attend as many fashion events as I can, mostly for my style column on Seattleite.com for interviews and such. Sometimes it's hard to go to everything I want to since I also have a major day-job. What brand/color is your nail polish?
ReplyDeleteThis looks like such a fun event! What a great night out. I absolutely love this outfit, the dress is something I would buy in a heartbeat :) Love the pink nails too!
ReplyDeleteHave a great day!
Great dress!
ReplyDeleteYou look fantastic! Love the dress. :-)
