Win $1000 Shopping Spree With Me

Sep 15

Hello Darlings,

I am really excited to announce the collaboration between Ontario-based bank, Ukrainian Credit Union and With Love... and a chance to win a $1000 shopping spree with me just in time for Christmas! The campaign is being launched at North America's largest Ukrainian Festival in the Bloor West Village West on September 17, 2011.

As a part of the festival, Ukrainian Credit Union is hosting a meet-and-greet with me. If you're in the area or would like to come out and say hello, I am going to be at Jane and Armdale between 12:30 and 2:30pm on September 17,2011. It would be a pleasure and a highlight of my day to meet some of you and have an opportunity to say a hello in person :)

I am wearing:
  ♥ Club Monaco Sofie Blouse
♥ BCBG Max Azria Suui Pointelle Skirt
♥ 3.1 Phillip Lim Simon Sunglasses ♥ Z Spoke by Zac Posen Purse
♥ YSL Arty Ring
♥ Marc by Marc Jacobs Vinty Wedges thanks to SSENSE

With the details of the collaboration revealed, I am delighted to share the many images from the photo-shoot for the campaign The idea behind the shoot was "a girl on a sole shopping mission".

The images were shot by the talented Dominika Dittwald, who at the time was 8 months pregnant and a rock-star to work with. Despite the long hours we had lots of fun together and the time seemed to have flown by! Only the marks on my feet from the heels that were left as a memo :S Blister, ouch! Until I received these images in my inbox and was pleased to say that they are very With Love...

I wanted to stay true to the With Love... image with no make-up or hair personnel and instead did everything just like I would on everyday basis: minimal make-up and bubbly attitude. The wardrobe was also styled by me and I felt very confident in the two looks that I chose.

Regardless of the circumstance it was very important for me to stay true to my style which would explain the tutu-like skirt. The skirt added a cheeky twist and represented that girlish attitude that I always try to add to all of my outfits.
