Hello Darlings,

First and foremost, congratulations Danielle on winning the beautiful ClaudiaE Dress. Thank you so much to everyone for entering! The next giveaway is of Chloé Perfume :)

I was hoping to make this post along with a video, but my video editing is taking forever. Do you have any suggestions of a good program to use? In the meantime, on day four of Toronto Fashion Week, I attended Rudsak but unfortunately missed the Lundström and VAWK shows.

Toronto Fashion Week Day 2: Pink Tartan

Hello Darlings,

For the second day of Toronto Fashion Week, I was invited to attend Chloe Comme Parris and Pink Tartan. Unfortunately, I missed the Chloe Comme Parris show but did make it just in time for Pink Tartan.

Pink Tartan is designed by the talented Kimberley Newport-Mimran, the wife of Joe Mimran, who used to design for Club Monaco and is now responsible for the hugely successful Joe Fresh line.

Of all of the shows, Pink Tartan is the one to which I can most directly relate in terms of style. Their pieces are sophisticated, feminine and fun, and Kimberly surpassed expectations with her stunning blouse and tutu-skirt combinations. The show was well done and the collection was exceptional; I will definitely be stopping by the Pink Tartan store to check it out.

Hello Darlings,
It was Sunday afternoon and I was getting ready for the F/W 2011 Preview of Denis Gagnon and Dandi Maestre Jewelry. [caption id="" align="aligncenter" width="600" caption="Marta Tryshak with Denis Gagnon"][/caption]

As I was standing in front of a mirror completely overwhelmed, and annoyed at my inability to wear patterns, I came to realize that it doesn’t have to be perfect it just needs to work. To me, mixing patterns is as foreign as rocket science; yet, there I was, trying to make sense of it all. Loving this seasons’ trend of mixing bizarre patterns, I was determined to venture outside my comfort zone and do it.

With Love… at Rac Boutique presents Mulcair Event…

On February 27, 2011 · 23 Comments · In Go, Shopping
Hello Darlings,

The other night I had the opportunity to attend a Mulcair presentation at the chic Rac boutique in Yorkville. The Mulcair designs were fantastic and the store was stocked up with a wide selection of up and coming designer pieces. It was a fantastic night with lots of talented bloggers and fashion insiders.

The highlight of my evening was having the ability to support my friend Anthea from Clothes Line Finds, the creative genius behind an upcoming documentary, Faces of Fashion. Actually, Anthea and I met three years ago at a bloggers’ lunch and have become great friends. The documentary focuses on the Canadian fashion industry and I am honored to be one of the few bloggers chosen to represent bloggers’ point of view.

The idea behind this film is absolutely amazing and I cannot wait to have the opportunity to share it with you when it is finished. As part of the night, Athea and her filming crew were kind enough to create my first Vlog video, which is coming up sometime next week :)Yes, I am hoping to introduce video blog entries to With Love…
