Come celebrate the distinctive styles of London, New York and Paris at ‘Jet Set’ - The F/W’09 fashion show presentation at Venue, produced by Style Canvas in association with YWiB. Designs will be featured from some of my favourite stores in the city : (212), Jules & Eve and Oliver+Lilly’s.
Once you’ve spent the day at the YWiB Beyond Pink event at the Hyatt, go home, refresh, have a bite to eat and come back and join us at Venue (881 Granville Street, Vancouver BC). It’s the perfect way to spend a Friday night.
Fashion show starts at 9 pm.

Joining the band wagon on lower priced goods, the Olsen’s twins are now launching a junior tier with partners, JC Penny. The lower priced brand, Olsenboye.com will be launched and sold exclusively at JC Penny stores.
It’s slated to hit approximately 600 JC Penny stores in February 2010 and they are doing a major push behind the line’s debut, including a teaser video for the preview collection, magazine print ads, Facebook page and Twitter. On top of all this, the Olsenboye truck (dressed in pink) will be driving around New York selling merchandise and giving out cupcakes and balloon.
Now that’s what I call a brand launch!

The perfect dress to with with your pearls (faux or real).
The Eva in gold metallic is a button down front, lady like dress that screams sexy siren! Watch out Coco Chanel.
The short collar and ruffle cap sleeves are adorned with a velvet ribbon tie at the waist. Slits on the sides and back of the hem give this demure dress some major sex appeal!
Regular $ 306 USD and now on sale for $ 230 USD on-line at Corey Lynn Calter.

I love hearing about the new collaborations with H&M and I am particularly excited about this one.
British designer Matthew Williamson will be next to join the ranks of Rei Kawakubo of Comme des Garcons, Stella McCartney and Viktor & Rolf when he designs a collaborative capsule collection for H&M, slated to arrive in stores Spring 2009.
Williamson is renowned for his gratuitous use of colour and prints, and caters to a wide number of hot female celebrities.
