Coach is now open in the Eaton Centre

Published by

I visited the new Coach store with a co-worker last week. That store offends all my sensibilities. I was bombarded with the horrible CC monogram those horrible patchwork bags were all over the place. I can’t remember the last time I saw so many fugly bags in one place. Actually, I don’t think I’ve every seen so many fugly bags in one place. The store is accessories only, no clothing. I didn’t see any shoes, but I could be wrong. Look at this hideous thing, who finds this appealing. I want to know. They did have the only thing I could find on the website that I liked. images: coach.com

Canada’s Next Top Model – Episode 6

Published by

I hated that episode. Somebody needed to go home. There are only 2 episodes left, why do we need 5 girls. It was funny to see some familiar faces on the go-sees like Anne Hung, who has a shop on Queen Street and Damzels’ girls. I hung out with Rory for the first time on Friday following the episode, it was a little surreal. She’s a ton of fun though. I noticed this picture in the FASHION Magazine newsletter. Is it predicting the winner for us? image fashionmagazine.com

It’s a monogrammed LV bag I can get into. This Louis Vuitton Icone bag is designed by Zaha Hadid. LVMH commissioned the bag for an exhibition. In the spirit of Marc Jacobs, who has constantly reinvented the House icons with flair and genius, Louis Vuitton has invited nine exceptional creative talents—artists, architects and designers—to celebrate nine iconic bags in an exhibition that will run from September 15 to December 31, 2006 at the “Espace Louis Vuitton”. The Louis Vuitton Icone bag is made of moulded plastic and comes with its own stand and two stools. LVMH press release image: zahahadidblog.com

PEEP: Fashion Cares 2007

Published by

I just finished watching the television special of PEEP: Fashion Cares. IT WAS AWFUL! I can understand why people were so pissed off. I don’t understand Fashion Cares without a runway. I didn’t like the stage setup at all. The crowd looked completely bored. And they edited the hell out of it also. They didn’t show Dita’s performance in it’s entirety. Boo urns It was awesome to see one of Irene’s outfits in the show. It was during the dance performance which would have been fine if the big screen wasn’t behind them. Big screens displaying the show need to be off to the sides of the performer.
