A few shots Vancouver-based travel and lifestyle photographer Maurice Li took at last night’s Social Feed x The Anthology. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you for making it such a fun night! I’ll post more pics as soon as I’m back from the board meeting I have to attend first thing this morning (I really [...]
The Anthology’s list of what’s new, what’s now and what’s next… Win it – The Anthology and Shopbop are giving away $100 Shopbop gift card to one lucky Anthology reader! Beg it – If you love vintage like I love vintage, then you’ll love the second instalment of the monthly Beggars Banquet happening this weekend (Feb. [...]
Let’s talk about tangerine for a second. I, like the good folks at Pantone, love this colour. It conjures images of Miami sunsets and drinks served out of coconut shells, doesn’t it? But forget summer sunshine for a second — I love tangerine-coloured winter outerwear too. It’s especially fitting on a jacket from the Company of [...]
Tickets for the Social Feed x The Anthology dinner sold out the day they went on sale. So if you got yours, jump for joy! See you on March 1st! And if you weren’t one of the early birds, fret not. There will be plenty more events coming up. [Photo by Melvin Sokolsky found here.] P.S. [...]
I’m all for versatility. That’s why I love a good tunic. This one, from JNBY, works bundled under a giant vintage, formerly shoulder-padded sweater. So I’m cozy enough to sit on the patio and drink tea on a sunny February afternoon. Or wrestle with a couple of beasts in the backyard. Its length means it’s [...]
Ooooooooh boy, this is going to be fun! Have you heard of The Social Feed? They throw giant dinner parties at independent restaurants around Vancouver and Toronto. And they’re all sorts of fun. Which is why I’m especially thrilled that The Social Feed and The Anthology have partnered up for a Fashion and Design Feed. Come! Join fellow [...]
You know what I love? Photo shoots. We held this one for Sterling Shoes SS/12 campaign at Vancouver’s tiki-tastic Waldorf Hotel. And it was one heckuva way to spend a day. While my role at Northill primarily involves writing and creative concepting, it also involves holding open the hotel’s lobby door, a very important job on a hot, sunny [...]
Gotta love these before and afters. They never disappoint, do they? This “before” shot is especially mugshot (fugshot?) esque. I can’t even imagine who would have originally owned this vintage grey-and-white striped jacket before me — an escapee from Alcatraz? I would call its style “Jailbird chic” except there’s nothing really chic about it. It’s boxy, [...]
Before a calm, cool and collected live segment… …is just a touch of backstage nuttiness. (And sometimes a little on-stage nuttiness too.) But that’s what makes these things so much fun to do. Of course, it doesn’t hurt to have people like Erika, who might look a little familiar, by my side. (She’s wearing a dress from [...]
I’m shooting a segment for CTV Morning Live this week. The focus? Dressing in dresses. So I stopped by Jason Matlo’s Yaletown studio to pick up a few of his because they’re so gosh-darned purdy. And I got a peek at some of his works in progress, too, which thrills me because I love nothing [...]
