Vince Camuto: Coming To Canada

Good news ladies! Did you know that Italian brand Vince Camuto is finally coming to Canada. That's right, you'll soon be able to shop directly from the brand's store. No more need to scope out your local Winners in the hopes of finding some of the styles you were looking for (which I have done countless times). A few weeks ago, I took part in the Vince Camuto Step-up and Style contest where bloggers from all over the country were sent a style of shoe inspired by their style aesthetic to include in an outfit challenge. The goal was to create a look both incorporating our own sense of style as well as taking into consideration Camuto's. Unfortunately, the boots sent to me weren't in my size (urgh for huge feets!) so my little sister had to play model for me. What do you think of the final outcome?

I had so much fun taking part in this challenge and although I'm not one of the winners it was nice to get a close-up look at what Vince Camuto has in stores for us comes fall 2012.  

Don't forget to like the Vince Camuto facebook page for all the latest details.

Forever XXI Rallye Shopping



Yesterday was the Rallye Shopping at Forever 21 where I got to spend some time with the 2 winners/readers of my F21 contest. The place was jammed packed but we still managed to get our shop on. Valerie chose to spend her gift card on a lovely emerald one shoulder dress while Joannie went a little crazy and got 2 blouses with a pair of striped skinnies. It was so fun to get the opportunity to spend time some time getting to know some of my readers while chatting about fashion and our mutual love for Forever 21 styles and prices.

Ciao Joannie, Ciao Valerie.
Most of all, thank you to Forever 21 and the lovely Tara! It was so nice working with you.
