I figured I would do a separate post for outfits, randoms, and such :)

Vancouver Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2012 Day 5
On Saturday I spent another day at Vancouver Fashion Week and holy geez was it worth it! Some of the shows were just SPECTACULAR and it was an experience that I definitely want again. I would love to thank VFW's producer, Jamal Abdourahman, for his kindness and this wonderful opportunity :)
There were so many designers showcased for Day 5:

Misu A Barbe by Misu Kim
Belinda Liu
Hachung Lee
Jose Jhan
Rajadano
Maria Peligro
Claire O'Connor
Sadaf
Jung Eun Lee
Rimi Nayak
A long lineup right? The majority of photos in this post will be of my favourites. Hachung Lee, Sadaf, and Jung Eun Lee really wowed me with their shows. Hachung Lee; with his Korean inspired designs, Sadaf Tahvildarzadeh; with her beautifully exotic Iranian dresses, and Jung Eun Lee; with her crazy after-hours outfits.
First up was Lauren Elaine's swimwear. Nice designs but nothing really stood out to me.

Vancouver Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2012 Day 4
Warning, this post is pic heavy!
The shows at Vancouver Fashion Week were even better the second time around! Technically today was Day 4, but I didn't have time to go to Thursday's show.
The crowd was so much larger than Wednesday and there were a lot more decorations put up. Even the catwalk wall was smothered in colourful paint strokes that I heard Pamela Masik did herself. It was a welcomed change compared to the plain white wall that was there before.
I'll spare you the details (you can read more in my other VFW post) and go right on into the show.
Today's featured designers were:

Temna Fialka
mortar & pestle apparel
Angeleye
Di Designs
D.W
Shilmel Zagvar Fashion Center
Farida Lalji
Karlinha Jewelry
Eva Chen
The True’s Fashion
It was supposed to start at 5pm and end at 9:45pm, but like last time, the shows were late again. I arrived at 6pm just in time for the 2nd show, mortar & pestle apparel.
mortar & pestle featured a lot of emerald green, teal, yellow, and purple in their collection and they all complimented each other very well. The designs were actually very wearable and I liked most of them. I couldn't get a good picture since we were in the middle of the bleachers when we first got there so these are all I got.

Vancouver Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2012 Day 2
As mentioned in my last blog post, here I am with a recap of Day 2.
For a person that has never been to fashion week before, this experience was pretty cool. We got to meet the manager, who took us backstage where there were lots of yummy topless male models and rows and rows of cosmetic stations. We also go to go into the VIP section, but since we are pretty much NOBODIES and had no idea who THOSE VIP were, we did a quick walkthrough and left. It WAS however pretty cool to get past the big huge bouncer into the VIP section without a problem, lol.
6 designers were showcased today:
Joseph Ribkoff
Papillon
Mermaid Moon
Kings & Paupers
Musa Shah
Valerio Moda
We arrive a bit late at 6:30 but made it in time to see the Joseph Ribkoff show. The designer only showcased 6-7 pieces from his collection. Didn't get a chance to take a picture of this show because we were still settling in.
Between each show there was a 15 min. intermission, but most of the catwalks were a bit behind schedule.

A More Colourful Week for Vancouver in Fashion
Guess what! My friend Emi from EmicablyYours scored awesome 5 day passes to Vancouver Fashion Week and I got to tag along ;) After the opening ceremony yesterday, today was the start of the catwalks, so keep your eyes peeled for my recap and photos in my next blog post!
In the meantime, here's what I wore to the event~
I decided to brighten up the cloudy, rainy night with some colour! The pink was just bright enough, and the purple acted more like a grey so it didn't over saturate the look. Not bad for a last minute outfit right?
