Western Canada's Fashion Week

Photobucket


Handcuffs Required Hello there, it's been a very busy weekend for me, which all started thursday night with the wonderful fashion show on whyte ave! I had never been to anything like that and it was actually really exciting and fun. Besides I got to meet other bloggers for the first time ever, and they were the sweetest ladies ever!! It was so funny, because I felt like I already knew them from seeing their posts. It was a lot of fun, and I was really impressed with some of our local talent. The girl who won the emerging talent contest was 15. 15?! At 15, my sense of style was ripped denim and tshirts. Not so stylish.


It was a lot of fun, and we got to sit front row too. I wanted to wear something really simple, colourful and comfortable. This dress was perfect for that, my sore throat was back so I felt comfortable and cute. A continuation of calling spring to me!! Colours! The outfit:

  13. Doesn't it just blow you away how preternaturally talented some girls are? It seems to me fashionistas just keep getting younger... When I was fifteen, I would wear anything as long as it was pink. Not exactly stylish :P But I like to think I've come a long way, and you obviously have, too, since you're one of the most stylish girls I know. Seriously. I am absolutely in love with your dress- the shade of blue is so vibrant!- and your shoes are fabulous, too! The toe cap! So adorable :)
